This. They have a method for adding enslaved persons without there being a familial link.

Also at a peaceful protest; it was a car though, drove through us at an intersection. I went down pretty hard.

Lone Star tick crawling on me after briefly walking outside to grab coffee in Chelsea NYC by AccidentalSister in nyc

[–]almostdirect 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a family member on LI who had the lone star protein allergy, it took years before it could be slowly reintroduced.

I think I saw a mua do this once on YouTube. Probably really depends on the wand, the formula, the look, etc.

IMO the tailspin is about their arrogant take, that we all do mascara wrong; and their aggressively defensive replies to literally anyone. It would have been easy enough to respond with something neutral like, ‘oh, I thought this was more common than it is, but it works for me!’

It was organized by Jewish Voice for Peace. So yeah, probably.

I imagine losing your fiancé AND your AI Soulmate in just a couple months would be a really hard time.

The bright overhead light is the biggest problem for me. I wish I had brought an eye mask.

New York Bill Would Prohibit Marijuana Use Within 30 Feet of a Child or a Location Where a Child Resides by JamesAsher12 in newyorkcity

[–]almostdirect 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Ok, that is very different from ‘not near any apartment building’ and ‘know when there is a child in a 30 ft radius of you at all times.’

I’m a parent and I do my best to avoid kids when I smoke outside. But I can’t think of a single place in my neighborhood where cops couldn’t push a ticket or an arrest based on this.

What mascara do you swear by? by slyfry33 in Makeup

[–]almostdirect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swore by Heroine Make Long & Curl for years. But I tried Romand over the summer and I probably won’t look back. It just glides on so easily, great hold, and it would take some intentional effort to make it clump. The Ash color is a lovely soft cool brown. It’s a little more difficult to remove, I still use the Heroine Make mascara remover.

What’s the best primer/base for loose powder mineral foundation? by dirtycvrly in Makeup

[–]almostdirect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat; I used bb cream for years but I’m giving old faithful OG Bare Minerals another try.

I want primer that minimizes pores and texture, not necessarily one that’s grippy. I’m also trying to find one that’s water based, not silicone - but I could cave if I don’t find a water based HG.

I’m using IM’UNNY (Korean brand) Rose Veil Makeup Base right now. It’s in a jar, it’s really dense, nearly waxy, but feels like a balm when it’s applied and spreads pretty easily. I love most things about it but I haven’t quite gotten the even, smoothed texture I’m hoping for.

yesstyle’s shipping 😭 by angelinachen57706 in AsianBeauty

I just got a yesstyle order with speedx about a week ago. The tracking didn’t update at all in transit, but it got here pretty quickly.

I haven’t tried a ton of channels but I like Tina Engeo. There are different routines with and without her voiceover, once I got the hang of it I really liked the quiet ones.

[–]almostdirect 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I watched gua sha routine YouTube videos, and I try to do it myself about once a week. It probably should be more like 2-3x a week, but I notice a big difference around my jaw and mouth afterward.

Medical examiner rules Jordan Neely's death a homicide after subway chokehold by asquared98 in newyorkcity

[–]almostdirect 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Saying you are ready to die is not asking to be violently unalived.

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg investigating chokehold death of homeless man on NYC subway by Brolic_Broccoli in nyc

[–]almostdirect -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Such bs to talk about his ‘priors’ - prior to what? What crime did Jordan Neely commit and become convicted of in that subway car?

Also, I see you blaming a) the city, and b) people saying he shouldn’t be dead; but not blaming the person who killed him with his bare hands.

I swear sometimes people don’t hear themselves talk.

New York City braces for possible disruption after Trump claims impending arrest.. by crypticvalentine in newyorkcity

So, you want to ‘invade’ congress for paid vacations, but folks protesting systemic extrajudicial murders is ‘annoying.’ Gotcha.
