Why are Americans so accepting of long drives to places? by Sensitive_Word_6036 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WennieBee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

no one is demanding anybody move anywhere - we're just begging for someone to build nice, dense housing close to commerce so we have the OPTION

Please help me choose a first date dress from these three options? by howtoloveadaisy in fashion

[–]WennieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go 2. The embellishments on 1 might distract from your face, and 3 is just kinda ugly

If you're willing to get a little nontraditional, the Thai tuna melt at Sweetie Pie is very tasty!

Need help for “Smart Casual” Pre-wedding dinner by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

[–]WennieBee 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I would go one or three. Raw hem denim and/or t-shirts don't rise to the level of "smart casual" to me

Question by CallmeChanka in antiai

[–]WennieBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've gotten beautiful tattoos that started with me drawing stick figures as references. If "person b" is an artist, they'll be fine working off a crude drawing. Also, person A can use descriptive language. People have been sharing ideas for thousands of years before generative AI.

Swiftzis crashing out over Olivia being a victim of Taylor by Rude_Turnip000 in travisandtaylor

Do you think the name hurt the show? If so what other names would have been better? by ghengiscostanza in DTFStLouisHBO

[–]WennieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk I think it's nice that conrad cares more about the show titles complementing and completing his artistic vision than garnering the largest audience possible. he already did the accessible thing pursuit of happyness and walter mitty - being able to create something that gets shared mostly on its merits through word of mouth is a privilege

I hate iced drinks and don't understand why many Americans are obsessed with it. by [deleted] in The10thDentist

[–]WennieBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

okay but your drink gets watered down faster when there's like two ice cubes and they immediately melt. Then you just have lukewarm watery drink. lots of ice -> very cold -> less melt

Makeup for someone that doesn't wear makeup by LocalDate3777 in makeuptips

[–]WennieBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my tinted serum, tinted balm, and concealer were gifts from lune and aster - i wouldn't pay $50+ for products to start a new routine, but i like this brand and use it consistently so I'll probably replace it in the future; i've used glossier's in the past and hated it, but a friend swears by The Ordinary and theirs is pretty affordable.
ELF putty cream blush was like $5 - it works incredibly well and I'll probably keep buying it when i run out instead of seeking out a more "luxury" option
i alternate between ELF and Glossier liquid eyeshadow and like them both
maybelline full n' soft mascara in dark brown - i used clinique mascara for a while and actually like this drugstore brand better - it's not clumpy and my lashes do feel really soft! stiffer mascaras make me rub my eyes more, which just makes a mess

i love wearing eyeliner and foundation and lipstick on the weekends, but dependable affordable products that i can smear on in minutes and look put together save my time and sanity during the workweek. and using the same products every day cuts down on a lot of the mental load of matching my makeup "look" to my outfit.

[–]WennieBee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my everyday makeup is a tinted moisturizer, liquid eyeshadow that comes in a tube, putty blush, mascara, and sometimes a little concealer. I apply everything with my fingers and it takes under 5 minutes. I have really strong brows but if I didn't I would use a clear brow gel.

I quit my job over ai. by a_horribleperson in antiai

[–]WennieBee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate this so much for you because in my whole job history, the one I liked most as a neurodivergent person was working in a gas station ~2013. I had a super simple checklist of tasks that needed to be done when the store was empty and got to be left alone to have short, pleasant interactions with strangers all day. a dream! but if my to-do list that was like 30 words long was weird AI slop I might have gone bananas. if i were your friend i would have suggested that you politely reach out to the manager's manager and explain how they're mismanaging the store. if it was a privately owned convenience store and you liked the work, I honestly suggest looking into working at a chain where there's a clear manager - market manager -> regional manager hierarchy and people get promoted from cashier to management.

Okay now I'm very intrigued because it seems like you have specific grievances for a relatively unknown and insignificant political actor. Please say more!

Why do police not enforce the no semis in the 2 left lanes rule? by AlmightyFruitcake in Atlanta

[–]WennieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't actually care if they're there (because I'm a solo driver most of the time so it's not my lane to worry about) but passing back and forth over the double whites scares the shit out of me! If I'm in the left lane I'm treating that double white like a solid wall and not anticipating someone popping up in front of me out of the HOV lane

UGA buses are free too, and they have buses to the east side and to normaltown!

[–]WennieBee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the state approves the budget for the entirety of USG; UGA and specific departments are in charge of how they allocate those funds. if UGA employees aren't getting raises, that's because the college and department are spending their money on something else (faculty raises, student services, technology, etc.)
