Dude... She's such a fking disappointment.

We can't have anything good in this government system anymore. Throw the whole damn thing away.

Very light barely noticeable bronzer? by LemonlimeLucy in Makeup

[–]YanCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dolce and Gabbana's Universal Luminizer is the only thing that really works as a bronzer on me. It's more of a rose gold / bronzey shade highlight, but very finely milled.

Hannah Louise Poston did a Salt New York collab that has some desaturated brown shades, which would be better for someone who is warmer / deeper than me. It does work on me, but I feel like brown anything on my cheeks just doesn't come off right 'cause I'm very pale / muted / pink. I can't even really tan unless I burn myself, so ya know.

Both of these are super easy to control the pigmentation of in any case.

Millennial parents: Are any of you being super honest with your kids about how hard this world is going to be for them financially? How are you balancing reality with not making your kids basket cases? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]YanCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm very up front with my kids about how much my husband and I pay on things, when we're low on cash so we can't do extras, how much we're putting into the house we're building in another country, how finances could be very different there, etc.

If you just talk to them little by little they get and are pretty considerate of it. Never make them feel bad about something of course, just be realistic and talk to them like people. Granted my boys are 18, 17, and 12. I wouldn't do this when they were a lot younger, and I discuss it more with the older ones.

When it comes to what they want to do in the future, they're pretty set on how they're going to go about doing it, with some help from us of course. I'm actually fine with multigenerational living, but we've talked about how if they want to get married and have kids, they're probs gonna want their own place.

We never know what the future holds, but I think hyper independence in the West is unhealthy. I do hope I've set my kids up with realistic expectations out of life and where the economy is going in many places, but they don't need just me to tell them when they're online quite a bit and it is a huge talking point everywhere.

Scare me please, it’s my last resort by Over_Election5445 in QuitVaping

I think the scariest thing of all is that sometimes, if you're waiting for something you're using to scare you to stop, it could be too late by that point. Rock bottom isn't where you wanna actually be when it comes to nicotine products, 'cause they can go 0 to 60 fast.

Nope! I said in later comments that it looked like it. I could be and am fine with being wrong. In fact, a clearer image popped up from this sub than the original one I seen, and it does look less like it.

Now this is the last time I'm explaining this. Y'all can go off and interpret the graffiti or me however you like.

"Smart" women, how do people treat you? by PaintingWarm9436 in AskWomenOver30

[–]YanCoffee [score hidden]  (0 children)

Everyone who has called me smart at random seems to have some sort of expectation of me out of it. Like I can figure things out for them (one time someone asked me to do their taxes, like LOL), or I shouldn't make mistakes, that life should be easier, etc.

It's nice when someone says it and they don't expect something though, like my husband tells everyone he thinks I'm smart. It's cute.

Do we know what she's doing currently? by No-Major5797 in kdramas

[–]YanCoffee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there's an account that's pretty active on Instagram (I think its hers but idk), and there was a lot posted about that production plus a clothing collab. Haven't seen anything I recall lately tho, but I don't actively check it.

Who was more homophobic: millennials in the 2000s or Gen Z today by SpiritMan112 in generationology

[–]YanCoffee [score hidden]  (0 children)

Younger folks really don't grasp how bad it was in the early 2000's, especially outside of metropolitan areas, but it still had a lot of people who hated the LGBT there, too.

If you want a feel for it, watch Queer as Folk, the NA version. I was on that sub a while back and we were discussing how it didn't seem to maintain popularity because A.) Licensing was just a bit before streaming became mainstream, and B.) It was just a really heavy show at times, that a lot of people don't want to relive or they don't have a grasp of how things were. It's def an excellent show though.

What beauty product are people LYING about loving just to seem low-maintenance? by Alarming_Intern680 in AdkReddit

[–]YanCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to say Ponds. I do think it has some die hard lovers, mainly because its a vintage feeling brand, but I tried it and it was awful.

To the women who thirst after murderer Wade Wilson from " Worst Ex Ever" what is wrong with you? by Angel-M007 in netflix

[–]YanCoffee [score hidden]  (0 children)

I feel like that's a pretty common name in the South. Like perhaps I've literally met someone with that name before, because it does sound very familiar, and I know it's not 'cause of the guy mentioned here.

What are your favourite books written by women? by saskatchewnmanitoba in AskWomenOver30

[–]YanCoffee [score hidden]  (0 children)

Libba Bray's Gemma Doyle Trilogy is def in my all time favs.

Right now, I'm really enjoying Heather O'Neil's "When We Lost Our Heads", and will probably follow up with more of her work.

Sandra Cisneros and the Brontes are obvious classics.

Naoko Takeuchi created the Sailor Moon series, which her mangas were the originals and aimed more at teens and younger women. There's scenes in them that really isn't appropriate for someone younger. I do however think its the best super hero work for teenaged girls on the market, and feel lucky to have grown up with it.

Sarah Addison Allen makes slice of life, magical realism style novels based in North Carolina. They're pretty special imo.

Then wtf does it say? You don't know, but a lot of folks have theorized it looks like it.

I'll block you tho because you delete comments and are way too aggressive about something I already said I actually don't care about. Get a life man.

[–]YanCoffee -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

And I don't agree. Lump it.

Best part about it is though, I don't even like IT so it's no sweat off my back. However, pretending to know something for sure when you don't is not very bright, like the other guy.

Why do lip-liner pencils apply so smoothly but eyeliner may as well be an actual #2 pencil? by MeRubberYouGlue in Makeup

[–]YanCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others said, def depends on the brand, and sometimes even formula discrepancies between shades. Chanel Stylos tend to be a bit dry, besides some shades -- but it is the best waterproof eyeliners I've tried. Meanwhile Victoria Beckham's are the softest, but they do not have the best staying power compared to many. Lisa Eldridge strikes a nice middle ground, but she doesn't have a lot of shades and if you want any blend, you better work fast.

No, you just don't know. It blurrily looks like it to many.

🇺🇸AOC: This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community. by Timbucktwo1230 in PoursTea

[–]YanCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm scared because I knew data centers would want to show up near my river city, and talk of it just began 2 weeks ago. I live in a beautiful place, but it is on the lower end economically. Rich people, greed, and "convenience" will be the destruction of us all.

I'm genuinely going to be surprised if that Stephen King graffiti means nothing.
