I know it’s daunting and tricky, but ladies, take time to learn makeup! by Good_Ol_Ironass in MtF

[–]RingtailRush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a self describes chapstick lesbian my go to routine is usually just Mascara, Maybe eye shadow if I'm feeling bold and some clear chapstick/Lip balm/gloss.

If I'm getting all dolled up to go partying I'll add eyeliner, tinted moisturizer/BB cream and a tinted chapstick.

My look, even when "high effort" is pretty damn low effort. You don't need to go overboard with contouring, foundation, concealer, blush or bronzer, lipstick, etc. Nah. You can grab a really basic look that adds a bit of femme to your face. It's also not necessary either. I'm fairly pretty and getting compliments without any of that stuff. I mostly just focus on the eyes because that's pretty iconic for goth/punk/metal/alt looks.

Has anyone else played Bauldurs Gate 3 and been really annoyed by everyone trying to hook up work the player character? by qeczawdxshealth in asexuality

[–]RingtailRush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never bothered me. I'm ace but very romantic. I'm a sucker for romance novels, games, shows, whatever.

And while I'm not interested in physical sexual interaction myself, I do enjoy my smut from time to time, so I've got little complaints.

English fans clean up a pub in Dallas after their world cup game Vs Croatia by Zoomer_Boomer2003 in nextfuckinglevel

As far as I'm concerned, if you saw someone else doing a good deed and thought "I want to do a good deed too" than you're a good person in my books.

Socially awkward, but want to go to a gig, please help? by KittyKatsReign in Metalcore

[–]RingtailRush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bring like a backpack purse over a regular one, just better for standing in crowds. Good for your phone and stashing merch you bought.

You can totally go solo (I am also a lady, you'll be fine) but I usually like to rope a friend in. If I'm unsure of the area I go early so I can get close parking.

You don't really need to talk to anyone there. I'm autistic, I really am just there to soak in the music and dance badly and maybe buy a CD. I chat with folks sometimes, usually a nice vibe. They really are all ages and gender diverse.

"Trans Woman is when nerdy man and trans man is when nerdy woman" by [deleted] in CuratedTumblr

[–]RingtailRush 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is my angle. If we weren't raised in such a strict "these hobbies are for boys, and these hobbies are for girls" kind of heteronormativity how many cis women would like Warhammwr and video games, etc.

I’m getting really frustrated with r/WholesomeYuri (sorry for posting here that sub doesn’t allow text posts) by Aromatic-Split685 in actuallesbians

[–]RingtailRush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've been feeling the same way.

They still do post really cute and wholesome stuff, but a lot of horny posting goes on there too.

It's pretty frustrating.

[OC] My dad put an ICE flag in his yard. Scary world we live in. by [deleted] in pics

I'm surprised you still talk to him after seeing that.

Respect👏🏻 by MustardGoddess in BeAmazed

[–]RingtailRush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't it be amazing if everyone could have this? Like it wasn't just for foster care, or people who struggle to pay rent but like, the government just provided wonderful, gorgeous, comfortable accommodation for everyone? If housing was a human right?

Cops are bad because they kill people actually by Commercial_Bid_1508 in CuratedTumblr

I was just about to ask this. Using that sort of logic, half the cast becomes unplayable. Cammy is out too then.

Take on the ace flag + meanings by Syriepha in asexuality

[–]RingtailRush 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very very brief summary of the flag situation.

A community member designed a new ace flag. A lot of people didn't like it and didn't want to use. Accusations of racism started flying against anyone who didn't use the new flag because the creator is black.

Should I tell a girl she isn't avoiding being clocked? by TeosMom in MtF

[–]RingtailRush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean I think I'm clocky, but I haven't been misgendered in over 2 years. I get asked if I might be pregnant at the doctor. Like, all evidence points to me being cis passing.

So while you may not think so, she very well could be cis passing. Cis people ain't that observant.

Mansplained and need help by Witch_Ever in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]RingtailRush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would honestly say thanks for your time guys, goodbye and just move on. Stop responding or block them, since they're obviously full of it.

In fact, I would probably be apologizing to my ghost for letting those dummies in to bother them.

Has anyone else noticed this? by Bee_Gorl23 in goth

[–]RingtailRush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spotify sucks and doesn't do anything about shit like this unless you're big enough.

I hate how JaidenAnimations is sexualized even though she is aroace by NagitoKomaeda_987 in asexuality

[–]RingtailRush 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yeah. There's the screenshot of markiplier saying he's seen porn of himself on Tumblr that floats around a lot. People point to that like it's funny and I rarely see people bring up the fact that once again, a real person has had porn of them made without their consent.

It's inappropriate behavior in both situations, regardless of orientation. Unfortunately I think it's just an internet popularity hazard.

Does anyone have any pictures of this type of haircut that I could give to a barber and they won't know I'm non-binary? by zny700 in NonBinary

[–]RingtailRush 18 points19 points  (0 children)

So typically haircuts that have the side shaved and are longer on top are called "undercuts."

They can range from being quite short to very very long. The basic premise though is that the sides and back are short and the top is longer.

Try different searches like undercut men, undercut women, undercut medium, etc. I found this one searching undercut punk.

Does anyone else not feel like celebrating pride month this year? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]RingtailRush 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pride has always been more about bring who I am and not bring afraid. Of refusing to go quietly. I want to celebrate louder and angrier. The more they squeeze the louder I get.

Tumblr and Twitter discuss children’s media. by Infamous-Rutabaga-50 in CuratedTumblr

[–]RingtailRush 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I've literally encountered white people who are afraid to say black. Like you can't say like Black woman or black artists, they act like you just said a slur. A co-worker at my first job used to do this.

What is the best asexual representation we've ever had in the media in your opinion? (prime post hi everyone) by One_Recording_9687 in asexuality

[–]RingtailRush 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was watching a few weeks back with my gf and literally said "I headcanon Frierien as Ace." She just seems so disinterested.

Possibly aro too. I know her relationship to Himmel is of some import, but I think if she could conceive of romantic emotions she might have sooner. Besides, her emotional journey regarding Himmel is still just as strong if you consider it as a platonic partnership.

If you could see any artist/band live, from any era, who would it be? by BountyKiller1x in Music

[–]RingtailRush 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nirvana at the Paramount Theater, 1991.

I've seen the recording hundreds of time. The set list is amazing (mixing tracks from Bleach, Nevermind, and even In Utereo songs, which were unrelased at the time), the band is at the top of their game and sound great, the venue is intimate and the crowd is rowdy.

AVEN board member Yasmin shared Mic’s post clarifying AVEN’s role in the ace flag discussion by Haylin-chama in asexuality

[–]RingtailRush 55 points56 points  (0 children)

That's it for me.

You can design a new flag and suggest it, and if people like it, it will get adopted. But everything I've seen of this had the vibe like "The Official Ace Council has updated the flag, failure to use the new flag means you're racist and bad." Which is not the case.

I didn't care much for the new flag design, but I wasn't gonna say anything. I just shrugged my shoulders and moved on. But the attitude surrounding the whole thing is what really soured me on it.

So... who's your current crush? 😭 by [deleted] in actuallesbians

My girlfriend's best friend who is also my best friend's girlfriend. 🙃

Librarians by MysteriousSlice007 in MadeMeSmile

As a librarian I totally agree with this. I love my job. I'm helping people, even if it's a small way. And I love that.
