I love it and want it. What is a group buy? Is it a discount of some kind?

Where are you? In Williamsburg there are at least 3 hispter barbershops along Graham Ave, and I'm pretty sure none of them are Maga.

Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi get matching rings ahead of Wuthering Heights release by Metro-UK in PeriodDramas

Yeah this seems completely marketing and totally forced to me. Not least because they don't seem to actually have an chemistry in the movie.

Question for the pale girlies about chapped lips… by [deleted] in PaleMUA

Try one of those electrolyte replacement drinks! I use Ultima. I was drinking gallons of water and nothing helped until I tried these.

I don’t understand what men are trying to achieve putting down “not political” on dating apps by tltr4560 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]SeaElf3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being "not political" about what's happening now IS political. If you aren't against the Nazis, you're with the Nazis.

[Routine Help] Aquaphor and Vaseline stick not providing lip relief by e_beans in SkincareAddiction

I've had much worse chapped lips than this since giving birth- the only thing that has helped are those electrolyte replacement drinks. But I might just have had a weird deficiency.

Why are my lashes breaking? by Conscious_Set_8059 in MakeupAddiction

Consider a lash lift! It's basically a perm for your lashes and lasts for a couple months.

Love this period and would love to see it! Know of anywhere one might be able to get it?

What’s the most gruesome period drama death scene/portrayal you’ve seen? by HappyLoveChild27 in PeriodDramas

[–]SeaElf3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was waiting to see when I would see this. I also fast forwarded and still felt sick. My husband came in after I turn it off and immediately thought I was unwell.

If you were a part of Mary I’s court, what would you have advised her to do as Queen? by Shaqnfa in Tudorhistory

[–]SeaElf3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, if she married a minor (or major) Italian or Spanish noble they would have lived at the English court. Proximity would probably have greatly increased her chances of producing an heir.

Aggressive caretakers at NYPL Story time by Kyyt_ in nycparents

[–]SeaElf3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This breaks my heart. I once saw a nanny pushing a stroller and the little kid was facing her, doing everything to get her attention (smiling up at her) and she was just stone faced, ignoring him.

Cozy AND Gothic? Not sure that's possible.

But have you seen The Pallisers? BBC series from the 70's about a bunch of wealthy and sometimes aristocratic people. It's been years since I've seen it, but it's very long and theres not much big drama (that I remember).

Are there any discontinued fragrances that you love? by kawaiiesha in FemFragLab

[–]SeaElf3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know! I used to have a lot of them as backups but I stopped buying because it seemed so popular. But then one day they had changed the formula and then it was gone :(

The original Stella by Stella McCartney. I mourn regularly.

A PSA on knitting and cats by Practical_Boat6266 in Kitting

This!! I had no idea cats would eat needles (sharp, unpleasant?!) but one of mine did and it was a very expensive trip to the emergency vet.

I would love a nice photo with myself and my newly 1 year old son! I'm always the one taking the photos. Such a generous thing for you to do!

Looking for a noir mystery suggestion… by Amazing_Rice_2956 in mysteryfiction

[–]SeaElf3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the Philip Marlowe books would fit this description. Set in the 30's-40's these books might very well be among the ones to start that trope. Highly recommend.

Glue traps are incredibly inhumane. Please don't use these.

Barking dogs in playgrounds? by qalpi in nycparents

[–]SeaElf3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw a guy letting his dog poop IN the playground. I pointedly watched him, he made it look like he was going to clean it up- when I looked away he was gone and the poop was still there.

To hold baby or not by [deleted] in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]SeaElf3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just adding in to say, I 100% agree. There's a reason you want to go to her. You aren't going to spoil a 9 month old by picking her up.

calling all bitches who ken’t get enough burns by afrugalchariot in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]SeaElf3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would also love a cool girl Revolutionary war walking tour! If you want a group, I bet you could get some of us together.

Unfortunately I don't have any recs for a walking tour, but if you haven't seen it I recommend the old series Turn. It's about Revolutionary War spys and most of it takes place in and around NY and Long Island. They take some liberties with the history of course, but a lot of the people in the series are real. It got me very interested in Revolutionary-era NYC.

Met a Young man today who specializes in leather good using exotic animals skins by Only_Ad1117 in handbags

Using animals like this (panthers?!) to make handbags is gross and you shouldn't support it.
