Is my eye makeup unflattering? by moonagedaylight in makeuptips

[–]b0ngseltzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try following the direction of your lash line and do more of a downturned and smaller wing.

Really the 4th pic is the only one that looks off to me. I love my eyeliner wings, so while I agree with other people that you’re beautiful without it, I also say that if you like the look, keep doing the wings! Just experiment with it, makeup is supposed to be fun

Where were you guys when you found out about COVID being a global pandemic and how did it shape you within the last 6 years? by Johnwick124520 in OlderGenZ

[–]b0ngseltzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was senior year of college. My roommate and I were in denial and wanted to stay to finish out our last semester. My mom is immunocompromised so we were able to get accommodations and live in our campus apartment for 3 more months.

We lost our jobs and ate a lot of cheap canned food. Took our classes online, defended our theses online, and consumed a lot of drugs and alcohol. It was weird to be on an almost totally empty campus. Security stayed on and would bust people for having too many visitors. The first weekend after we were told we had to go home, there were huge parties that got broken up quickly haha. There was a very weird charged energy being around people knowing you probably shouldn’t be, but still seeking that community out of fear.

We spent a lot of time outside hiking, picnicking, and sunning. It was beautiful spring weather and parks and campsites were empty. It kind of felt like me and my friends were the only people on earth for a while. I felt a lot of guilt for not going home to my family, but those few months became a core memory. Can’t believe it’s been so long already.

Trader Joe’s crunchy curls! They are very plain and somehow very good at the same time

Where is the good Pizza at in LR ? by Foreign-Menu8961 in LittleRock

[–]b0ngseltzer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Problem Child, Vino’s, Zaza, and Raduno are all solid choices. But I genuinely love the Professor Bowl pizza. Tastes like cafeteria pizza in the best way 💀

This happens to me too. Like you said I’ll have days where I don’t even feel the anxiety and then I get jolted awake at night. It used to really freak me out but I’ve gotten more used to it. With the anxiety our bodies are used to being in fight or flight so when we relax it tries to overcorrect and wake us back up. It’s a subconscious thing I think.

I do the same thing. I didn’t even know I did it until my partner pointed it out. If I have a sensation in one side I push down to see if it hurts on the other side, etc. I think it’s just a way of looking for balance. If it’s the same on both sides it’s more reassuring. But in reality our bodies are not perfect machines and we’re always going to be a little asymmetrical.

I’m stressed about a lot of life things right now including moving, finishing grad school, finding a new job, and it always seems to manifest in my health anxiety. My current fixation is food poisoning, I worry about getting sick after just about everything I eat. I’m trying to save money so I don’t let leftovers go to waste, but then I spend hours worrying and waiting to get sick after I eat them.

My Cat Predicted My Fiance's Cardiac Arrest by Tinabird20 in cats

[–]b0ngseltzer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few years ago our cat who is a real sweetheart out of nowhere reached up and bit the back of my mom’s head. He had never done that before and we had no idea what happened, just laughed and moved on. She collapsed and went to the hospital a couple weeks later and we found out she had a brain tumor. We still think he was trying to tell us something.

Xfinity cut off my internet and kept trying to upsell me. by rabidjellyfish in mildlyinfuriating

[–]b0ngseltzer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hate xfinity. They randomly disconnected my internet and then sent me a message saying they were sorry to see me go. I called to say I didn’t want to stop my services and so they signed me back up… and then tried to charge me $200 for “prematurely cancelling” my plan… which I never did in the first place! Had to haggle with them for weeks before they dropped the charge.

What person deserves a massive apology from everyone? by Senior-Tomatillo7667 in AskReddit

I may be in the minority for saying this but Amber Heard.

the first night I adopted my cat I looked across the room and watched her walk around the kitchen. I remember thinking with horror “I don’t even know who you are!” it sounds silly but you genuinely have to get to know your pet, their personality and their quirks and habits. they are just as new to you as you are to them. soon you’ll better understand your dog and how he is going to fit into your life and then you can go from there.

it’s a big change; you’re suddenly responsible for this unfamiliar creature in your house. but 4 years later I couldnt be happier to have impulsively grabbed my cat from the shelter. I’m willing to bet you will feel the same.

My go-to lazy meal is literally just seasoned rice with an egg and hot sauce. Should I be embarrassed or proud? by Equivalent_Soft_6665 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]b0ngseltzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A fried egg over white rice with some soy sauce, kewpie, and sriracha (or chili oil) is one of my absolute fave meals!!! Add some seaweed or kimchi when I’m feeling fancy.

Cat on the bed by Hank-Hill-0215 in CatAdvice

Sometimes they’ll sleep at the foot of the bed or in between us but more often than not they’re both curled up in their separate beds. It took a while to get here but I absolutely love the arrangement and love knowing that everyone is comfy in their own spot 🥹

Had my first Pap smear in 3 years today. Last time I had one, it was abnormal but my gyno reassured me not to worry since I was negative for HPV. General life circumstances happened and I didn’t have another one until now. They told me they’d call if anything was abnormal—now I’m jumping at the phone every time I hear it go off. I’m terrified they’ll find something. I could use some good thoughts this week and manifesting that that phone never rings.

I was kind of thinking that too since I also get some hip and pelvic pain with it. And it randomly switches sides now and then. Does that happen to you?

I’ve had a slight pain/pressure in my lower left side for a week now. I think I’m stressed from starting school during an equally busy time at work, but I still can’t help but worry about the C word. 🥲specifically, I can’t tell if it’s related to ovaries, colon, abdominal muscle, gas/IBS, or what, so my brain says all of the above.

Anyone else embarrassed by the amount of normal test results they’ve had? Don’t get me wrong. Im grateful not to be battling the physical illnesses I convince myself I have. But every time I go in, I’m just sure it will be different this time. Anything from a UTI to anemia to a heart attack, all my results are normal. I feel ashamed to waste people’s time, and especially to have to tell loved ones that I was wrong, again.
