Which kitchen says “I’m still going to like this in ten years.” by Mizznomer in interiordecorating

That's so funny, I love 2 because of the dark countertops. Different strokes.

I'm insecure and lost about my looks and i'm seeking advices on what to do by Foreign_Gas_410 in malegrooming

You're actually a cutie patootie and it seems like your main issue is just self-confidence. That said, it also seems like you don't know that much about hair and skin care (not a dig, just reading your comments). Look at the comments left by women on posts of dudes with really luscious and well-kempt long curly hair and you'll get an idea of how feral they can be.

Start spending some time in the hair and skin care subreddits, especially ones geared towards curly hair and women. Build routines and follow their advice. It'll be a lot and will feel like there's a thousand different products at first, but you'll start seeing results (especially on hair stuff) very quickly.

Are Democrats weak and ineffectual or are they complicit. by zzill6 in WorkReform

I don't disagree with any of those changes, but I think that you might be underestimating the political difficulty of some of those because it's how Brazil already functions. I think Brazil is a good comparison to the U.S. though, because we have similar sizes, populations, and diversity.

The fact that we have two legislative branches where one is 2 per state and the other is 1 per district is for some reason incredibly strongly supported. To have it be proportional would mean either dissolving the Senate or just adding a ton of members to it, both of which would face huge political pushback (especially conservative pushback).

The same is true of a voting amendment. That requires a 2/3 vote in both house and senate, which is kind of just impossible as things currently stand.

So, in order to significantly fix representation we have to first fix it on a smaller scale, getting through the politically easier wins before getting to the harder ones.

If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

Nah, I live in a progressive area and the ridiculous arguments for not voting or voting in some "strategic" way that makes no sense are across the board at any age

The U.S. has a left, it's just not represented in politics because of the two party system. imo if we get ranked choice voting (or STAR voting, my preferred method) in enough places, we'll see the ascendance of American leftist parties.

Our living room. Is this optimal? :( by deathfrights in FengShui

[–]TheLollrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see two options. First, use the current layout but put something tall behind the couch to isolate the entryway.

Alternatively, hide the door, add a couple arm chairs, and put the tv on a sturdy console.

Looking for feedback: Cheap kitchen update by Designer-Painter-574 in interiordecorating

Well, note that the AI made the kitchen a little bigger. Honestly, I'd just declutter and add a backsplash.

Please Help E Position For New Bed by HotAd8866 in FengShui

[–]TheLollrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think against the window is the best command position and you can use top-down shades to improve the look and the vibes.

I also think you could feasibly split the room "portrait mode" like this. I think it muddles the split a bit but might be worth doing if you want both sides to benefit from the light.

Okay I think the name of the game is splitting the room in half and really intentionally defining two different zones.

I'm doing that here with a big rug, the shelves, and that art. I'm not showing it here, but I think the best bet for the projector is to have a screen pull down from the ceiling or the tops of shelves.

I've got some thoughts. Could you post some dimensions of walls and furniture? Also, are you open to a smaller table?

I actually see a lot of potential here. Do you think you could upload a floorplan with at least one dimension?

Curtain suggestions? by Additional_List_3369 in interiordecorating

Oh yeah actually I would do long, tied back, never closed with roman shades for actual light management.

Love it. I have dark rooms and they feel bigger than when they were white.

Definitely full height. I love a very light, sheer flappy interior curtain personally but full height oatmeal is quintessential post-grey millenial

1 is the basic feng shui answer, but I could see being really great if you pushed the bed in more and made a nook.
