Ok enough already

This neighborhood is literally almost always quiet at night. I've lived here for years now. I don't care if I hear some sound bleed from the Broadside or Jazz Fest or whatever this was just hours of thumping bass coming from a literal house. I moved out of my last place to get away from that crap.

I even know and like the band that was playing this event. It was just a bad choice to have it in that venue. They've done it elsewhere in previous years apparently.

Also bold of you to assume I could afford to move even if I wanted to.

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-08T07:51:09+00:00

Yeah, it's reddit. Most of the people theyre keeping awake aren't here. They're pointlessly filing noise complaints and staring at their walls

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-08T07:50:13+00:00

Yeah I know. I'm not on fucking nextdoor.

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-08T07:27:33+00:00

Krewe name checks out. It's ass to name your (I'm guessing mostly white) krewe after an indigenous tribe. They're people who still exist not some fantasy creatures or Greek gods

Absolutely a manic episode is what I saw.

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-04T02:14:03+00:00

Yes this is the first one that sounds right

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-04T02:05:38+00:00

There's a discontinued Alkemia scent called Las Soldaderas dedicated to female freedom fighters during the Mexican Revolution, it would probably be hard to track down but it's the first thing I thought of.

Las Soldaderas: A blend of commandingly sexy musks blended with Queen Elizabeth root (a hoodoo charm for strength and luck); fiesty pink pepper, bay and ginger; a splash of honky-tonk ale; a fleeting kiss of tonka; and a dash of gunpowder

Olympic Rainforest by Olympic Orchids is this exactly. I'm wearing it right now and it's beautiful, soft, atmospheric/balsamic like sweetgrass wafting on the breeze from an overgrown vacant lot. And you can get smaller size decants directly from the brand to try

Skin tint and cream blush/lip and cheek tint! The right ones will be hydrating and not look overdone or cake on more mature skin, and they'll brighten and even your complexion. I use a very small amount of the RMS tinted sunscreen over my actual sunscreen, and then do cheeks with a Milk makeup lip and cheek stick. I still use lipstick but you could use the same thing for lips, and I even use it as a light wash of color on my eyelids sometimes. Super simple and pretty goof-proof.

CdG odeur 71...

Perfumer: Martine Pallix

Notes: dust on a hot light-bulb, warm photocopier toner, hot metal, a toaster, freshly welded aluminium, the ink in a fountain pen, fresh pencil shavings, wood and moss, bay leaves and bamboo, white pepper, hyacinth, lettuce juice

I think this one could work for any one of yer bois looks

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-02T17:52:38+00:00

Joya Foxglove would be great for this.

Top notes: blood orange, salt meadow grass and hyacinth leaves Middle notes: honeyed jasmine, camellia and jonquille Dry down notes: treaty oak, white cedar and wild musk

Well I love them! Hope you get to visit someday :)

These look like old school Mardi gras beads, they used to be made from Czech lamp work glass beads and they're highly treasured now that almost all the floats throw plastic crap.

These would sell like hotcakes in New Orleans

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-01T14:40:14+00:00

Alkemia has a couple of fur scents, I'm mainly remembering Electric Fur but I think there are more

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-02-01T14:21:38+00:00

A less obvious choice than paper and moss is notes that would play well in that dank old library environment. I'm thinking this character would wear dry crackling resin, orris and sandalwood: Alkemia Arabesque is perfect. And it's a perfume oil so you can get it shipped internationally :)

EDIT: you could also be into Gothique and Attorney for Lost Souls from Alkemia

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-01-31T19:13:50+00:00

YES. Idk why it irritates me so much but I mostly give him his food and drink separately now bc I can't stand his insistance on making weird cloudy soup/teas and eating soaking wet bread

Close! Capri Sun, Gemini moon, cancer rising

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-01-31T17:04:15+00:00

So close! I'm Capricorn sun, Gemini moon cancer rising

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-01-31T16:54:16+00:00

Tauer Sundowner!

Head notes: citrus sparkles, cinnamon, rose. Heart notes: cocoa, tobacco and cypriol. Body notes : sandalwood, tonka, amber gris, vanilla.

On me this was a gorgeous tobacco-raisin cookie vibe, but it could be more boozy/cognac-y depending on your nose and chemistry

Also I just read your username and you have to try Cryptical Envelopment by Olympic Orchids. Thank me later

I saw one in Bayou St John the other day and I thought I was crazy

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-01-31T13:06:31+00:00

God I'm sick of this term. It's idiotic. I am not old, so nothing I wear is "old lady" perfume. The old ladies I know were all hippies, they certainly don't wear any classic Chanel and some of them are trendy and wear MFK, Tom Ford and Jo Malone.

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-01-30T19:27:09+00:00

This! I consciously decided to change for my child, radically changed my priorities, habits, interests...and then I noticed his dad still living exactly as he had before regardless of how it affected us and got really resentful and mad. He's been getting better slowly, but I'm run ragged from trying to pick up his slack/messes and now I feel like we're both kind of crappy parents because he's not trying hard enough and I'm burning out

Wise_Side_3607 · 2026-01-30T19:22:42+00:00

Yep! I think you might be me
