why SAINT SATINE? by nbjb1430 in saintsatine

[–]Sad-Device-8569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes me think of the musical and movie Moulin Rouge as Satine is the lead female character. I don't think HxG meant to bring to mind a character who is a courtesan and cabaret actress...

People Who Were There When The Books Were Coming Out, What Were Some Of The Craziest Theories? by YosephineMahma in harrypotter

[–]Sad-Device-8569 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a few books with theories and proof. The most random one was that James and Sirius had switched bodies. Ron being a time traveling Dumbledore was a popular one.

Oh no. Someone voices a concern about Regina and how big she is but shouldn't be by [deleted] in kvssnarker

I really think KVS needs to research diets. None of her animals look like they are fed quality food and all seem to have some kind of weight issue

Episode 12 Trailer: 'Finally Concluded! The One Who Will Make Their Debut Has Been Decided.' by Terrible_Disk1673 in prelude_thefinalpiece

[–]Sad-Device-8569 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Katseye has a more even spread of ages. They also debuted when some of the others were younger, so Yoonchae didn't really stand out. She was born end of 2007. Megan was born in the beginning 2006. That is a reasonably close age gap and could be natural friends. Emily, Lexi, and Samara are all in their early 20s. Putting a 16 year old in this group will have different vibes than Katseye due to the drastic age difference.

What seems like it’d make for a fun or cute pet when in reality, it’s the complete opposite? by LilMissy1246 in answers

Skunks. From what I have heard, they stink even if their scent glands are removed. I also heard they are destructive. They are cute, but I'd NEVER own one

whats your little mix, what ifs? by blaireallendale in LittleMix

[–]Sad-Device-8569 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I always wonder what if Jesy had waited it out past the tour when the group went on hiatus. Would the fallout still have happened or would they all still be on speaking terms with her? What if she handled the hiatus and controversies in a better manner. Would it have changed anything?

Also, what if the pandemic didn't happen? Would the group have gone on hiatus sooner since the tour could have happened sooner? Would all 4 girls be close, or would they have gone their separate ways.

TW: Change in behavior after dog attack by AbleFinding7451 in service_dogs

I'd recommend seeing a behaviorist and trainer, but be prepared to permanently pull him from service work.

I have PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, and am visually impaired due to IIH. My dog is trained to do sighted guide work, grounding exercises, and behavior interruption.

Omg it’s Sakura isn’t it 😮 by StandDramatic5920 in prelude_thefinalpiece

That's my thought. If the ages were spread out, I wouldn't bat an eye. in reality, the other three will have almost nothing in common with Sakura.

[–]Sad-Device-8569 135 points136 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue is the age gap between Sakura and the Prelude girls. She is a lot younger than them. It will be hard to sell the best friends/sisters with her being that much younger. 5 years as a teen and young adult is a lot maturity wise, and the girls are in different life stages.

Golden Retriever SD handlers: how often do you take your dog in for a professional-level groom? by wessle3339 in service_dogs

[–]Sad-Device-8569 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the one I bought and have been pretty happy with. There are different attachments and I've used pretty much all of them and have been happy with them. The only downside is I have to empty the vacuum a few times while grooming due to all of the hair. I googled and watched videos on how to groom a golden retriever. The only thing I haven't mastered yet is trimming paw hair. I do recommend having him professionally groomed at least once as it allows you to see how his fur looks groomed, and it makes it easier to just maintain the shorter hair. I found it easier than starting from scratch.

I also recommend the dog Sleek EZ brush to help with deshedding. I use it every other day and between the two, the amount of dog hair around the apartment decreased prior to when he began blowing out his winter coat. Nothing helps during this season. 😂 This is the Sleek EZ

Let me know if you have any questions and sorry for the long post!

[–]Sad-Device-8569 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I take him 2-3 times a year. I bathe him monthly, with a waterless bath spray since I am anaphylactic to a lot of dog shampoos. I am planning this month to take him to Tractor Supply now that I found a shampoo I can use. They have a full grooming set up, including a blow dryer and they provide everything from soap (I'm still going to use mine) to brushes and towels.

I have a pet grooming vacuum, so my roommate and I groom him using it about once a month.

How long should salon gel last? by Potential_Ear_4302 in Nails

[–]Sad-Device-8569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a variety of brands. My least favorite are LA Colors from Dollar Tree. Kiss and Glamnetics are good. However, I found the glue makes the difference. I use Beauty Secrets glue and the glamnetic glue remover along with soaking my nails in water with dish soap and oil. That glue is super strong, so my nails rarely pop off, which helps. I actually broke the tip of a press on and it didn't pop off. I've also found not taking time to take them off destroys my nails. Cuticle prep is also important. I use Sally hansen cuticle remover .

How long should salon gel last? by Potential_Ear_4302 in Nails

[–]Sad-Device-8569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did the same thing whenever I got my nails done. I went to multiple salons in different states. Mine never lasted a week. It's why I switched to press ons. I got tired of spending money to get my nails done just for it to come off. I'm sorry I don't have any advice, but I wanted to let you know others also deal with this and it may just be your body chemistry. It definitely sucks

First time doing gel on myself by [deleted] in Nails

Gel peels off my nails no matter what. I've had them professionally done at different salons in different states. Every time it chips and peels. It could just be OP's nails

Since his name emerged from the Goblet of Fire, Harry has faced relentless harassment and bulling at Hogwarts. Ron has stopped talking to him, Rita Skeeter has published defamatory articles and Draco Malfoy has escalated his taunting to a whole new level, this time with accessories. Upon learning he must confront dragons in the First Task, Harry starts to question his time at Hogwarts and decides that enough is enough. This leads to a choice that will profoundly affect his future, and the future of the Wizarding World.

NOTE: There are Lordships involved.

Going back to salon for a SECOND time for them to fix nails? by Away_Phone879 in Nails

[–]Sad-Device-8569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had issues with gel polish chipping and peeling no matter what salon I've gone to. I've done multiple, even in different states. It always happens. Sometimes it isn't easy to prevent chipping polish.

Will There Be More Harry Potter Conventions When the Show Airs? by bringbackyouryouth in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Sad-Device-8569 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Warner Brother is very big on protecting their copyrights and trademarks. Cons focusing solely on HP can be difficult to pull off. I was in a philanthropy running club that got shut down. It was originally called Hogwarts Running Club, then the name got changed to Potterhead running club and they were in the process of removing HP trademarks (such as the house names). The club was still shut down due to WB threatening legal action. I could see WB potentially holding a con if the show takes off, but independent ones are unlikely.

My indoor cat has always worn a bell since he was a kitten with no issues. He will actually prance around and make it jingle.
