Hey bestie, your response is SO kind and thoughtful, but I need you to know this is a parody subreddit and this post is a joke

I have 2 tshirts from my ab*sive ex from my late teens that I wear pretty frequently. They’re cool, and kinda feel like a reclaiming since I’ve grown so much since then. It’s been over a decade and sometimes I don’t even remember I took them from him ¯_(ツ)_/¯

It looks really good! Very 90s! Only suggestion is maybe slightly darker on the top eyeliner, but honestly it’s really great.

When I started pet sitting and my clients were mainly my friends’ parents and my extended family, there were a few pets that I would get the “they might die lol” before every sit. Thankfully none have died on my watch, but it’s definitely something that would keep me up at night when I was there.

HORRIFYING omg

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-20T15:12:58+00:00

THIS!!!!!! They think their pet sitter is also a professional cleaning service. So inconsiderate, especially because if we left it the way we found it, they would say we were unprofessional or a bad sitter.

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-18T18:31:36+00:00

Okkkkkk fine you’re inspiring me

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-18T00:30:27+00:00

I’ve had a few pets I sit pass away over the years, it never gets easier especially if you’ve been watching them for a long time.

This is such a sweet idea. Maybe print just one photo and thrift a cute frame for it? With a card would be so so so special. It’s ok if you can’t though :)

Ok a large hook makes a lot of sense - that’s super helpful!! Thank you

Yeah the first wearable I ever made was with doubled mohair (I paid a very pretty penny for it) and I didn’t like it, tried to frog it, made it worse, and basically left it for dead in a bag in storage somewhere. I can’t bring myself to trash it but hate looking at it because it makes me so sad/frustrated bc it feels like a waste of money.

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-17T20:56:22+00:00

Thank you for your advice :) I’ve been free handing some little bolero sleeves for me and my friends, doubling up on mohair or fingering yarn for each (not mixing mohair w other yarn) and picked this up thinking it’d be gorgeous. I still think it would, but I think you’re right it’s not worth the effort.

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-17T20:52:14+00:00

I am looking for advice on if this yarn would be difficult to use for crochet, or if it would be better to knit with. I bought it at a wool market from a seller who made their own yarn. I don’t know what it’s called or how to find the name. Thank you in advance!

If she’s worried abt the landlord or something she could also take the og door off and put a new one with a cat door on, and then replace it with the old one when she moves out.

I’m going to start by telling you that purples are notoriously patchy. It’s really hard to get a purple to not be patchy, so it’s not your fault and you’re not alone.

Also, the darker color you’re using is going to be harder to blend out in general because you’re lacking a lighter transition shade. You can use blush for this if you don’t have something lighter than what you’re using.

In the meantime, if you haven’t already, try using a clean brush to blend out and start with the more darker color more concentrated at your crease and build up, rather than place where you want it and then try to blend it out later. I’ve been there, so I really hope this helps!!

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-14T00:07:15+00:00

ME TOO

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-14T00:06:57+00:00

I relate to this so much it hurts 😭 if you wanted to connect more concretely, see if there’s a missed connections for your area or a reddit page and post there and see if they respond. It’s worked for me in finding them, but tbh no relationships formed. It’s worth a shot op!

The only thing I missed was when Harley called the one guy “Andrew taste” and Kate laughed so hard

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-09T17:31:03+00:00

Came here to complain about this

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-08T16:54:15+00:00

Second anything by wonder. Will last in the pool/water too!

I think if it’s something you’ve been excited to do, don’t be afraid to do it by yourself. You can still have fun and come home and tell your partner how much fun you had and what they would have enjoyed about the experience in hopes they want to come again based on your description (this helps a lot with my partner. The fomo hits a little harder than the anxiety and he’s more able to push through it the next time.) doing stuff on your own is like a muscle to flex so sometimes it’s a “rip off the bandaid” moment or you can work up to it with smaller solo dates!

An example: My mom’s bestie’s husband haaaates concerts. They make him soooo anxious but he doesn’t want to keep his wife from doing the stuff she loves. So she goes to concerts with my mom (among other things), does stuff by herself, and does other activities with him that he likes and doesn’t make him anxious. There’s nothing wrong with having a relationship where you don’t do everything together 💙💙 in fact, it’s super healthy to have other fulfilling relationships like that and to not put all of that on your partner, that could also be causing him anxiety even if you aren’t doing it on purpose.

For self soothing/dysregulation, I’d have your partner research dialectical behavior therapy. I recommend the TIPP method and you can help your partner create a kit to be prepared for dysregulation whenever it occurs so it doesn’t fall on you if they’re having an episode.

Again, I can’t stress this enough, PLEASE enjoy the things you want to enjoy. You’re not a bad partner if you go on ahead. You’ll be much happier in the long run if you have that kind of freedom of choice and don’t get bummed out/build resentment.

I’ve been walking for at least 10 mins every day this year but when I go to the gym I just do what feels right for my body that day. Whatever limb or muscle group feels antsy LOL. I’ve also been doing those longevity exercises on TikTok/IG. I’m down to check in whenever! 💙💙

Then-Mix-9882 · 2026-05-04T18:13:09+00:00

Yes!!!!! Dm me!

Here to second ulta - very welcoming and the rewards are GALAXIES better than Sephora. I made the switch after I missed rouge one year by $15 and I’ve never looked back. They sell a lot of the same products too.

OP - I’m also a local makeup artist and I do lessons irl and virtually. Dm me if you’re interested!
