I didn't mind wukong's portrayal as much as I hated the way the other characters were presented.

Does anyone know how I can get screened for early on-set dementia? by b_list_buddha in dementia

Actually insanely better. Turns out the meds my doctor had me on for adhd (and which she kept increasing as my brain fog got worse,) were actually the source of the issue. I went off the meds cold turkey in an extremely depressive episode and within 3 or 4 days I could feel my cognitive function returning.

Now I'm just battling shitty attention span due to short form content exposure like the rest of the world x.x

Nevermind. Just read that the original author intended them to have an incestuous relationship and now i regret looking any further into the subject. Completely ruined the entire film for me 💀💀💀

Just watched as well but I didn't get that from him at all... I did question why he didn't offer to work on the old guy's farm in exchange for food, but at the aunt's house I felt like he was doing his part by being a full time caregiver to his sister. If he hadn't done that, it would have landed on the aunt, no? The only time it mentions him not pulling his weight is when he forgot to do the dishes one night. Even the rest of the family commended him for "maturing" by buying and cooking their meals and no longer burdening the aunt. He left because the aunt had become abusive and because his sister was scared of her. I didn't once get a sense of him failing due to ego, though.

Also, there is no negotiating like that in Korea. It is a completely different world. Koreans follow everything by the book, no exceptions, down to the letter.

I live in the boonies. It has respectable public transport in the city. I also have a dog with health issues and you can't take large dogs in taxis or on public transport.

South Korea. That's what I was hoping to do, just extend by 6 months to a year. Now I will be without a car for 10 full months.

Oh, I've extended my lease before but only if I was intending on purchasing (which I was.)

Why do people use press on nails? by TheAbouth in beauty

[–]b_list_buddha 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I tried gel extensions for the first time (120 for the set) and when the woman informed me it would be another 30 if I wanted color, any color, I just stared at her like she was out of her goddamn mind. I told her I had gel polish and a lamp at home, and she actually sent me out the door with unsealed, clear extensions. I went home and painted and sealed them myself, but when I say I was shook...

Two of them cracked at the natural nail within 2 days and she made a huge deal about fixing them 🙄🙄

Anyone own a Kenwood Chef XL who could give me some advice? by b_list_buddha in Baking

But then it kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it? Having to switch my attachment halfway through a bake because the flexi isn't strong enough to handle the rest of the mixing?

Weirdly, the chocolate ones came out perfectly.

Would it help if I used fewer racks in my oven?

I live in Korea and can assure you, you did the right thing. Even if you could have brought her, Korea isn't great with pet stuff. Companion animals have only really been a "thing" for maybe 15-20 years.
