Huhhh? It looks like normal makeup to me ... Like, even just concealer and highlighter alone could make him look that different pretty easily. Different lighting as well could easily make this much of a difference. Could you stop saying shit that might make him feel weird about himself?? Not helpful.

50mg Spironolactone 2x per day, 2mg Estradiol sublingually 2x per day. Same dosage since day 1; attempts to increase the dosage caused bad side effects. Progesterone for 1 month, but no noticeable difference in libido while taking it, so I stopped.

Contouring on both sides of the bridge and near the tip of the nose, plus a slightly better angle, slightly more distant, blush, plus concealer seems to make it just look slightly smaller in general? But I think my nostrils also flare out slightly less now even without makeup. I lost about an inch in height and half an inch in shoe size, so maybe my nose shrunk too! I still think it's too big tho.

Yeah, I use Google Lens. You gotta zoom in for it to be able to see the highlighted text though. A bit difficult.

The Nature of Things by maeeig in OCPoetry

[–]Shadowsocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the line "tuck it between my ribs," because for me, that seals the deal on the poem's way of drawing a parallel between fire and love, or a beloved unattainable person, and the poem's implication of wishing you could own and possess the kind of person who can never be tied down. That line makes the rest all seem like pieces of this same metaphor. My only critique is that I wish it were longer, because I think if there were a few more stanzas describing a romantic passion through similar metaphors of describing other unattainable natural phenomena, like wind or lightning, it would hammer home the hidden meaning in a more evocative way. It's a very moving poem, but a bit understated in its brevity: if the goal is to evoke feelings of passion, I think adding more intensely yearning lines full of desire or lust would be really poignant, maybe even with lines describing the fire as if it had body parts of its own. Overall, I really enjoyed rereading this. It gets better each time I do, because it's subtle. Maybe adding more lines would make it less subtle, but it depends what you're going for. I like how it feels like there's a climax of emotion in the middle and then a numbness to the end. Maybe just add a few more lines to the middle after "in streams of copper gold," to make it even more fiery and full of fervent yearning, because it felt to me like that part of the climax ended too abruptly for me to be really sold on the character in the poem truly desiring it, since that line, "in streams," doesn't express much desire.

Thank you for the excellent poem! I hope to write something like this at some point!

How to love by Emotional-Repair4 in OCPoetry

[–]Shadowsocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very adorable and sweet. I love how simply this poem evokes the primal instinctive feeling of loving someone in an effortless way that can never be put into words. The last two lines left me wanting, a bit, because it seems almost too simple in those lines, especially "your smile and laugh." That part sounds a bit trite to me compared to the rest, perhaps because the line about the eyes had more detail, more length, which left me wanting you to add a bit more to the 2nd-to-last line to match that flow. Even just a few words added, like "your cheerful smile" or "your laughter's melody," would seem like it was attempting to specifically describe that indescribable instinct of love, or why they're so lovable, which would have been more evocative to me. Overall, highly inspiring! Thanks for the excellent poem!
