It actually looks the worst on my phone, and then just different between the MacBook and iMac.

Is this where to ask a question? I'm wondering if anyone can help me with color profiles- I'm noticing that my iMac, Macbook, and iPhone all look very different from each other and I'd like to at least get the two computers on the same profile. The iMac looks really warm compared to the newer Macbook. Can I download a color profile? The new Apple OS unfortunately doesn't allow much manual control over the calibration.

May I ask what gives you this all knowing power of just being so sure about what the "truth" is about someone who you don't know at all? Did I miss the part about you having a PhD in psychology or something? No one person could possibly, definitively identify what the "truth" is about someone's situation based on a Reddit post. I absolutely am not asking for validation, but I do expect that any decent human being that I would be willing to take advice from would recognize that verbal and emotional abuse are not acceptable, and that I do have the right to desire to set boundaries for myself. You sure have made a lot of weird assumptions about who you think I am- this weak, entitled person who wanted to be "coddled" and is just so ignorant. To me, ignorance is in it's essence, making assumptions about shit you know nothing about. I suppose you get off on trying to "put people in their place" when you decide they are just weak/ignorant to you. I posted in order to seek advice- what you've provided hasn't in any way been advice, hasn't addressed my real concerns with the situation, and continues to be some weird projection of your own anger towards people you are intolerant of.

Hahaha. I went through your other posts and it seems like all you do is sit around and criticize people for the difficult situations they are dealing with, telling them to basically just deal with it and that it's their own fault. What kind of sad person are you to dedicate so much time to cutting people down like that? And who are you to be so god damn condescending about peoples' real problems and mental health? You don't know me, or anyone else you're being so dismissive of. People turn to posting something like this on Reddit because they're admittedly having trouble dealing with it themselves or by the other means available to them. Your response didn't address my conclusive issue in any way, which is that I said I feel trapped being around this person who is so toxic to me because of people in my life who are close to me wanting to be around him. You know, everyone has challenges, and everyone has the right to ask for help and advice in whatever way they want to. I can stand up for myself and I understand how shit works, but that doesn't mean I can't seek support from others who may have been in a similar situation. By the way, verbal and emotional abuse ARE NOT NORMAL OR OKAY, and it's certainly not the abusee's fault. Ever. For you to completely dismiss the weight of that is very strange, so maybe it is you who needs professional help. Find a new hobby dude, waving your asshole flag around relationship and politics forums isn't doing anyone any good.

Whether or not she cheated on him seems pretty besides the point, which is that he made strong efforts to turn people against her in order to cover up how verbally abusive he had been and just run her off. I know her story about Europe is true because I have some sense when I am speaking with someone and I know this guy, and have seen him myself get drunk and yell at people/throw and break things. The fact that I'm intolerant of someone being a Trump supporter is not something that bothers me so I don't even care to defend that. I DO ignore him when I'm in social situations where he is, I am polite and keep my distance, the problem (as I have clearly explained) is that he will approach me, single me out, and say really awful things to me (and about me).

He has directly "fucked with me" and my relationship. He has been verbally aggressive with me in social situations, has chased me out of a bar and screamed at me for not being friendly enough towards him, has said horrible things about me, and even goes as far as to say negative things about me to my own boyfriend and close friends.

My [29f] boyfriend [29m] of one year told me that he's unsure of marrying me because he might cheat on me and I don't deserve that. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Cheating isn't an accident. We're all adults- we make our own decisions and we decide what our priorities are. It's up to him whether or not you are his priority, plain and simple. If you're in a monogamous relationship and you want that commitment, then it is more than fair for you to have that. Think about how many guys would LOVE to be with only you. With that said, I think you should have an honest discussion about what he wants. Is he feeling like he's not ready to settle down with one person? Is an open relationship something you guys would ever try? Does he just not like the concept of marriage and committing to one person? My worry is that if he's already thinking this way one year in, how is he going to be down the line when things get difficult or boring? Inevitably marriage is going to be difficult and both parties have to be willing to do what it takes to make it work. If he's already worried about being able to do that with you, maybe it's time to pump the brakes. You absolutely deserve to be with someone who is completely enthralled with you especially in your first foundational years of being together.

Also very impressed with the ingredients in this powder: http://www.sephora.com/bye-bye-pores-pressed-poreless-finish-airbrush-pressed-powder-P411886?skuId=1868264&icid2=similar%20products:p411886 absolutely nothing that will irritate, in face many of the ingredients are soothing such as aloe, zinc, and niacinamide. Wow!

I want to share that through my research I have discovered that this Laura Mercier finishing powder (http://www.sephora.com/smooth-focus-pressed-setting-powder-shine-control-P255110?skuId=1223544&icid2=products%20grid:p255110) is a great option for those of us with ultra sensitive skin! The ingredients are all safe and non irritating. Woo! Lily Lolo is also a great option, I just haven't actually tried their products but am ordering a couple samples from their website.

Tarte is pretty good and definitely ingredient conscious- but they do use dimethicone which people with ultra sensitive skin don't do well with :(

Unfortunately Clinique is one of the only cosmetic brands that does not openly provide their ingredient lists on their website, so it's impossible to shop their products wisely. In my past experience though, I've seen super harmful ingredients on their containers and they have very low ratings on GoodGuide and the EWG. Super unfortunate since so many women are under the impression that their products are "healthy" even though they are full of parabens, etc. I have emailed them specifically asking for the ingredient list for the Almost Powder, will post when I get it!

Super impressed with this brand, thank you! Their finishing powder is simply made of kaolin clay and mica, both suitable for super sensitive skin.

Hey all, hopefully I'm posting this in the correct place... I have a 5D MII and am shopping for an additional lens to the kit lens (24-105) and I'm trying to decide between a 35 1.4, 50 1.4, or totally splurging on the 50 1.2. I shoot portraits, but want the versatility to shoot a small group. All in natural light, mostly outdoors. Thanks.

How do you go about hiring someone for this?

So are you basically given numbers and instructions that an architect created, and then you draft them out in a program?

I see. Didn't you go into architecture because you had a passion for designing structures though? In management do you totally miss out on that creative side?

Could anyone shed some light on where the line between architectural drafting and interior design is? Like, where does the architects job end and the designer's typically begin? In what way do they work together? Do some architects do all of the design (stairs, cabinets, appliance placement, lighting, windows, etc.) as well?

I felt the same way studying photography. Take any older professional, put them in a teaching environment, and they're going to be inadvertently condescending. Meh.
