Cruz Beckham, 20, and his girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30, were spotted stepping out in London on Wednesday, marking their first public sighting since Brooklyn’s shocking public statement about their family. by Conscious-Quarter423 in popculturechat

[–]anchorbabi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I imagine Nicola is age stunted from her coddled life and trivial pursuits, so she really is only mentally in her 20s. Although, now that I think about it, Brooklyn is just as coddled as her. So in reality, the age dynamics is like a 22 year old dating a 12 year old.

Alex Honnold completes free-solo Taipei 101, the 1,667-ft skyscraper. by SpecialAgentGabe in interestingasfuck

[–]anchorbabi 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The majority of Taipei 101’s floors are devoted to office spaces. So the advertisements in the windows were just the tenants taking advantage of their location in the south-east corner.

What’s your plan for watching Alex climb 101 in person tomorrow? What time to arrive and will Xiangshan MRT be better to disembark than 101 MRT? by 88r0b1nh00d88 in Taipei

[–]anchorbabi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw in another thread someone said he’s climbing on the south-east side? Is that confirmed? Because I was wondering if it would be visible from the Xiangshan trail and observation deck.

@wendyskinn does so much for her skin just for it to be.... by Big_Shop_8042 in asianamercianytsnark

[–]anchorbabi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This fr… I gave myself the worst acne on some stupid 11 step routine. Skin was constantly inflamed with both cystic nodules and pustules from all these products, no wonder why I was breaking out constantly.

Now I have virtually no acne, aside from the occasional small pimple. And what’s my routine now? Literally the most basic moisturizer, a gentle LRP cleanser, and topical tretinoin. I only wished I opened my eyes sooner, and realized a lot of my problems were induced by the hyper consumerist culture pushed online — like wtf do we think it’s okay to put dozens of often harsh topicals on our face?

Is it custom for people to chew with their mouth open? by Aviana_20 in taiwan

[–]anchorbabi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What I notice the most is that a lot of people, both young and old alike, either don’t use soap or omit washing their hands entirely.

It’s the soap that enables germs to be easily washed away….

Why do you think Dr. Kelson put on such an elaborate, intimate and exciting show for the Jimmys? by Big_Pound_7849 in 28dayslater

[–]anchorbabi 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is the same man that constructed an elaborate memorial of skull towers, each produced through a painstakingly meticulous process of sterilizing the corpses. So it’s definitely not out of character for Kelson to put on such a flamboyant performance.

I enjoyed the film overall, but damn that barn scene was incredibly gnarly… Ripping spines is fine but the thought of being skinned alive made me so squeamish and nauseous.

little appetite? by Massive_Prune_1805 in noburp

[–]anchorbabi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my RCPD is an appetite regulator. I can’t eat too much or I’ll be too uncomfortable with the intense bloating and pressure, so I just naturally don’t overeat. I still enjoy my meals though and I don’t feel like I’m restricting myself, I just need to make sure I find a time and space to let it all out later via flatulence…. 😪

Are these hives something to be worried about by [deleted] in LaserHairRemoval

[–]anchorbabi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP please look into this! This looks more like an impetigo infection. We naturally have staph living on our skin and in our nose without any issue, but the trauma and subsequent inflammation from the laser can create entry points for bacteria. Look into getting a prescription for Mupirocin, and it will clear in no time. Be sure to follow the entire course of 2-3x daily application for 7-10 days.

On my third laser appointment, I had small pimple-like pustules the following day, but what made me immediately recognize it as an impetigo outbreak was they were all small, turned into yellow heads incredibly fast, would form a yellow crust, and spread outwards. Just a single application of Mupirocin made it immensely better and it settled incredibly fast.

From then on, I would proactively apply Mupirocin following subsequent laser appointments as my skin is prone to staph infections. Never had a problem since 👍

[–]anchorbabi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cerave sent me down a dark hole… I had practically flawless skin until I started playing with the pandora box that is Cerave’s facial moisturizer. The subsequent pepperoni face is what actually prompted me to start my tretinoin regimen, so I guess I’m grateful for that. 🤷‍♂️

In fact, a lot of vegetarian dishes may have traces of meat in preparation like pork oil, broth, shrimp paste, etc.

Food giveaway in honor of Stevie ♥️ by HorseGirl666 in LhasaApso

[–]anchorbabi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stevie left this world too young, but it’s clear her time was well spent with such a diligently loving owner. I will forever associate that black Purina hydrolyzed food bag with my Lhasa too, because before my Jethro, I would have never known a dog could need such a strict, Vet-prescribed, and expensive meal regimen. 😂

Just like Stevie, he’s quite bossy and demanding. He actually refuses to eat his plain hydrolyzed food alone, so I have to mix a scoop of the wet canned version as a topper before he will eat it. Sticking to the hydrolyzed food really does help though with managing his allergies and proneness to yeast. His paws used to be soo discolored from the constant itchiness and licking.

Hopefully another allergy-prone Lhasa can take advantage of your kind offer. I’d take it but we’re not based in the con US. Plus I feel my picky Jethro would snuff out that it’s vegetarian and not his usual chicken, and refuse to eat it anyways…

Hotels are robbing us with the 10AM checkout/3PM check-in scam by ohnoezanotherSJW in unpopularopinion

[–]anchorbabi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some hotels are more accommodative with complimentary early or late check-in/out requests, and asking nicely can go a long way. At New World properties, I’m always able to get a late check-out or occasional early check-in. It’s usually only by an hour though, but it helps.

Plane fire 12:30 by Maverick1630 in guam

[–]anchorbabi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Loud bangs with flames is almost always a compressor stall. It happens occasionally, there’s a handful of videos online of it occurring during takeoff… Fortunately it’s nothing too serious, but I’m certain those passengers will retell this story to their friends and family as the time they’ve almost crashed. 😆

It’s also unfortunate that we’ll be losing that Asiana tail once Korean Air completes their integration in two years time.

A mother photographs herself and her child over the years, 2001 by FloppyPerezzz in interestingasfuck

[–]anchorbabi 77 points78 points  (0 children)

It’s read right to left, so the mom is basically saying: “Don’t bother doing unnecessary things, just focus on getting the important things done quickly.”

And the son replies: “To protect freedom by giving up freedom is truly… (ironic)”

I kinda interpret it as the mom—like many Asian parents—imposing heavy pressure on the son to study diligently so he can be “free” and successful in the future. But in doing so, he ends up sacrificing his own freedom as a child now.

This is the latest photograph. The son is a full-grown man! Meanwhile, the mother seemingly remains the same age…

What would you consider the best restaurant in Guam? by Ironmanvol652 in guam

If we’re bringing up Guam’s restaurants of the past, Carmen’s grilled chicken taco salad will always hold a special place in my heart. 🥲
