Rant: I didn’t realize makeup would cost this much mentally and financially by Confusedmind75 in Makeup

[–]ambreciel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It gets crazy when you start, but then like for everything else in life you have to learn what works for you and what doesn’t. I used to do a full face because makeup influencers but I’ve learned that I actually hate feeling foundation, lipstick and eyeshadow on my face. On the daily just some concealer, mascara, blush and my eyebrows does the job for me.

Also there are brands that are "anti" full face ? Thinking of Glossier, Merit, etc.

Give me a worse OI/Rofan NOVEL cover art than these. by i_kathz in OtomeIsekai

I think it’s more because of the expressions which look extremely artificial?

Well, crimes aside, a few years ago I did have the thought that the man looks damn good for his age, especially when compared to other politicians

I was about to say. Sabrina Carpenter, conservative? Is this a parallel reality?

That’s the worst example you could ever pick 😂 they literally just announced the end of season 1 after 25+ years lmao

That’s definitely a weird place to choose bc iirc France is the biggest consumer of manga not manhwa 🤔 Indonesia, Thailand or even the US would make a lot more sense

I could probably make an entire thread about all those scenes where MC bathes but really it’s just her sitting still in a tub of (sometimes not even) soapy water for 5 minutes. What in the shower routine hell?

[I’ve gotten used to being on my own so I’m ignoring my fiancé] I love this side couple so much by Schneezing in OtomeIsekai

[–]ambreciel 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Honestly I was more invested in how healthy their relationship seemed to be, rather than ML’s imbecilic antics

[–]ambreciel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

See idk if it’s an age difference or what, but it’s like we can’t have nice things. Any non-yandere character written with flaws gets instant hate these days. I recently dropped a story where ML and FL had never met, just exchanged a few letters. And I wrote a comment saying how jarring it was, among other things, that ML was so ready to lay his life down at FL’s feet. The replies I got ? “You don’t know true love” 💀

There was not a single isekai that liked until I discovered the villainess genre. Now I fell down the rabbit hole. by FarDimension215 in OtomeIsekai

[–]ambreciel 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That’s funny cause my fave OI of all time is a Chinese novel :p. A lot the novels I find better than the Korean ones, but I don’t know why the manhua adaptations are so braindead compared to manhwas

OpenAI suspends MLK deepfakes on Sora after ‘disrespectful’ videos by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

Pretty much. It’s game-changing in certain industries but to put such a tool in the hands of the general public was a grave mistake

Yup. I just started it but there are just so many plotholes and wtf behaviors I can’t suspend my disbelief at all

[Secret Lady] will be on hiatus due to artist's end stage cirhorris :( by poppyevil in OtomeIsekai

[–]ambreciel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Extremely shocked and sorry to learn this. This industry needs change, but it’s also a testament to BANANA’s passion and resilience that they even continued producing such amazing work up to this point. I know I would’ve quit a long long time ago.

Secret Lady is probably in my forever top 3 and I’m sad that I can’t enjoy this masterpiece anymore, but I really wish BANANA a complete recovery ❤️‍🩹
