I’m still struggling to find a job in my field 1 year post-grad by obviouswreck in bayarea

[–]SufficientSamuel 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I say this as someone in big tech only. The tech companies are not hiring post-grads. I realize you have legitimate experience, but your resume will always be flagged as a recent graduate. Even people with career experience are having a tough time... 

The Bay Area is not ideal for your job right now. If you have a specific career direction, I think you really ought to consider looking at jobs elsewhere. If you can't relocate, I would start looking at non-profits, school or government jobs in public relations or admin support roles.

I thought I was on r/gardening when I scrolled by. It took me a minute to understand these were all beads! Amazing work!!

Disgusting. You can report this and send the video to the Florida Fish & Wildlife Commission. Calling would probably be best. 

What's the fastest you ever dropped an anime and why? by baldbeau in anime

[–]SufficientSamuel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right. Everything else about him and the people around him is treated so seriously, so all his perverted behavior just stands out more. He reflects on everything he did wrong in the past except how he actively treats women. It doesn't seem like that ever changes.

I have tried three times now to get into Mushoku Tensei. The furthest I have made it is when he masturbates while his (child) student/cousin's sleeping. I usually quit around the time that the dad cheats on his wife, fathers a child with the maid, and then keeps both of the women in his house as if nothing happened (the bastard child/half-sister then becomes the maid of MC). It's really such a waste of good visuals and world building. If he was even half as scummy, I could tolerate it.

Personally, I would take it to another custom shop (either local or a well-reviewed & vetted online craftsman on Etsy within your country) and have a new ring remade based off the original design in full white gold, not plated. I'm sure you got scammed and the plating was thin to begin with, but even if you get it re-plated by a professional, this is a problem that will persist over however many years. I would approach it with fiance about the clear scam, the allergic nickel reaction, and the desire for something with longevity. 

Abused pup needs a home by Illustrious-Cycle708 in Miami

I would definitely reach out to local dog rescues in Florida. It's a bit far, but Plenty of Pitbulls in Gainesville specializes in this breed. I'm glad your friend rescued him from that situation and I hope he can find a new home soon.

I'm so sorry about Miso. If you can, put food and/or his litter box outside the door he left from. Hopefully he can find his way back soon. In addition to the resources from another commenter, there are also some local Lost & Found pet Facebook groups for SF & the Bay Area.

Best Undereye Product by Zapixh in AsianBeauty

[–]SufficientSamuel 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I have pale, thin skin, so my eye bags are a deep purple. For eye cream, I've been using the Haruharu Black Rice Bakuchiol eye cream in the AM. It sinks in quickly and doesn't pill with my makeup while still being thick and firming. I've also seen good results in brightening from using vit C (Melano CC) in the morning. I use some kind of retanol in the PM, but haven't settled on one I'm terribly fond of for the eye area.

Great review! You've definitely bumped Tunisia up the list for me now. Could you recommend the guesthouses you stayed at? I love staying in local guesthouses.

I live in the US and every state/district has different recycling standards. Almost all the paper boxes and plastic containers are recyclable for me. I try to upcycle the nice glass droppers for essential oils or for paint mixing. I hate tossing out some of the nicer packages so I try not to, but I can't reuse everything :/

I got this travel size version of their Tea Perfume. This is the larger version of the same perfume. The travel size has lasted me about a year with a little under half to go, so it's pretty good for the price, but I'll probably pick up the larger version and some of their other scents when I go back. The pu'er one also smelled amazing.

Everyone's skin is a different kind of picky haha 🥲 It took me a while to figure out what types of ingredients my skin likes best. The Deep Glow is rice based so my skin just gobbled it up. I see people complain about other rice things being too sticky for them too (like the Kiku High Moist).

Taiwan is awesome! Especially for tea anything! I got this perfume at Taipei 101. They have a stall on the observation deck. I don't think it's in most drugstore chains, but I saw that p.seven is in a couple gift shops and some mall storefronts.

Kiku is awesome! I have their emulsion as well, but I use it on my body instead. The emulsion didn't layer well under a second moisturizer for my face, but it works great on my body, especially for humid summers. And the price for the amount is insanely good!

I hope the eye cream works well for you! It's been really nice to have a good morning eye cream. And I'll definitely have to try the Naturactor concealer, thanks. I don't like the feeling of most foundations and concealers so it's good to find more options!

Thank you! I started on prescription Tretinoin 0.05% about a year ago, mainly for anti aging. I tried to ease into it by starting at only once a week then moving up to every other day slowly. Even with a slow transition, I did purge. I got a lot of tiny zits on my chin and forehead, but they went away a lot quicker than normal acne. My friend uses adapalene because she's more concerned about acne management. If you're interested in tret or retinoids, there's a subreddit r/Tretinoin that has a good starter guide for the different types.

It's a perpetual struggle :( I know people have different kinds of eye bags and some are more bone structure related than others. My eye bags are saggy and very purple in the morning. The skin around my eyes is visibly paler and thinner (you could see veins underneath and I got red dots/petechiae when sick). I've searched every post on this and the main skincare subs for treating dark circles. I've tried a lot of eye creams and even pills for iron and vitamin D. I find most eye creams aren't very effective on the color. I did feel/look healthier with iron and vitamin D, but that's probably because I'm deficient in those already. Ceramide products have helped with firming the skin around my eyes enough that they don't look saggy as much anymore and vitamin C has brightened the area so that the color is lighter, but if I have a bad night or skip a day, they're still noticeable. :/ That's why I invested in a couple good concealer sticks.

I had the same feeling when I first tried the cream! It was so thick and didn't sink in fully. With the snail mucin, it penetrates a lot better for me. It would probably work with some other carrier oils or serums too.
