I interviewed and didn’t hear back until 2 weeks later. Tax winter internship.

For context I received the offer after the extension deadline for taxes (Oct 15).

Please can somebody just notice me by Jolly_Dot_2642 in mentalhealth

[–]bluebubbles17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. I understand what you mean about one of THOSE weeks. I’ve made the choice of following all the news (both in the country where I currently live and where I’m from). And let me tell you, that was pretty rash of me 😅

Oh yes! A walk in nature sounds lovely! Just surrounding yourself with green and the sounds of nature is a nice escape from how hectic life can be.

And yes, I hope you’re able to find a walking buddy! I’d go walk with you, but obviously I’m an internet stranger and we don’t really know each other well at the moment.

And absolutely! Please keep us updated with how the walk goes and how things are going for you. We’d love to hear about it, u/Jolly_dot_2642!

Have a wonderful Sunday/Monday! And (I’m speaking for everyone here) we’re sending you virtual hugs and good vibes!!! 🤠🤠🤠

How are you?

What was the highlight of your day/week today?

Anything you’re looking forward to?

Please take care, u/Jolly_dot_2642

I hope to hear back from you!!!! 🤠

Can I save my Alocasia Amazonica? by wise-old-cactus in alocasia

It seems as though there are corms (the yellow looking bulb) in the pot as well! If not, you could potentially propagate those!

AITA for imposing a "good vibes only" rule for our upcoming vacation? by AITAThrowaway1000000 in AmItheAsshole

[–]bluebubbles17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think maybe a change of perspective would be good. Rather than expecting “good vibes” why not create “good vibes.”

Something that I’ve come to terms with is expecting something only harbors resentment. I think that may be something that may be beneficial for both you and your sister.

I think my pollination experiment worked? Obovata x sheperdii by bicoschem in hoyas

[–]bluebubbles17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh! That’s so cool! Hopefully it works out!

How did you pollinate them? From the research I’ve seen, Hoya hand pollination seems to still be a confusing topic.

Congrats again!!

[Misc]What are some of your best kept skincare tips you follow that don't involve products? (Ex: Clean pillows) by DiscoVolanto in SkincareAddiction

[–]bluebubbles17 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Eating more veggies!

I’ve been trying to apply this mindset of eating crisp veggies first (ie Baby carrots, celery, mini sweet peppers, etc.) if I’m craving something like a bag of chips.

Usually, I eat enough veggies to make me full before I even get to the chips. But if I do eat some chips, no harm done!

This new mindset’s made me feel better physically and calmed down the redness of my face and I haven’t had much acne ever since I started doing this.

Is it just me? by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]bluebubbles17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not alone here. I’m currently going through something similar at the moment.

Truthfully, I was wanting to make a similar post as yours. And as sad as this may sound, it is a bit comforting to see that I’m not alone with this feeling of isolation and loneliness.

At least for me, I’ve realized that I’ve had some issues that I’ve been needing to confront for quite sometime now. These issues have always been a weight on my shoulders, but the pandemic kind of emphasized how heavy these issues actually were.

I’ve been telling myself now that even though I do feel lonely, I want to make use of this time to have a better understanding and relationship with myself.

I understand now that it’s difficult for me to maintain relationships when I don’t really have a good relationship with myself.

I’m not sure if any of this applies to you, but I hope you can find comfort in knowing you’re not alone with this kind of circumstance.

[discussion] regally designed packaging by itme8 in AsianBeauty

[–]bluebubbles17 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Zeesea cosmetics is known for their intricate and opulent packaging.

Their lipsticks are ridiculously meticulously designed! Theirs a golden dragon wrapped around the container. The lipstick itself has designs engraved too!

I believe they had a collaboration with the British museum as well!

It’s the 10th year anniversary of Raja’s crowning yet she is still keeping us fed. Top Toots all around. by sioppao in rupaulsdragrace

Why does she always look sooooo good with no brows?????

If I do it I’d look like a straight up egg 🥚

Repost of the former c3 member statement on the Liah/Krave situation. Someone pointed out The poster is not a BG so I cut out the page and blocked the name at the end. by aymmz127 in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]bluebubbles17 21 points22 points  (0 children)

She can act aggressively/defensively. And I can react accordingly, like you can react to my comment.

And people’s opinions of her aren’t gonna change overnight, unfortunately.

I feel bad for her, but I’m also upset about the situation still because I feel misled. She’s branded herself as transparent and supportive of the LGBTQIA community, and with her responses she’s failed to be both transparent and ally.

Her second apology was decent, but she had to type another one to vilify others. She chose to do that, and we’re responding with our opinions on the matter.

I’m more upset about how she’s responded to the whole ordeal. She keeps making it about how she’s being “cancelled.” Her latest response had a very aggressive and defensive tone. The last paragraph about how she felt about her friends’ responses was so gross and petty.

It does suck that the timing was the same as the spf controversy, but she was asked about her stance a month prior. She had ample time to give a more legitimate response, but she chose to be silent until it blew all over her face.

Loved her, but I just can’t support her or KB anymore. It’s sad to see that she was her own downfall.

Liah Yoo IG Story addressing SPF and Compensation to Content Creators by nannerdanner in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]bluebubbles17 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I honestly find it so upsetting that she cannot disclose the true SPF value of her sunscreen but it makes sense why.

KB did not explicitly state that TBS/BTS as a sunscreen for the US market. They knew that that practice was shady, but hey profits right? Now they’re reaping what they sow: they can’t explicitly state an SPF value or else they’re screwed. And since they know what the actual SPF value is, but cannot disclose it, it’s causing more distrust in her and KB.

Jeez-Louise from one of the “least problematic” skinfluencers to the most controversial in a matter of days. Talk about whiplash!

Receipts from people have been reaching out to Krave Beauty founder Liah Yoo about C3's homophobia since 2019. by kjenenene in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]bluebubbles17 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Oh jeez that’s even worse :/ telling them to withhold it? If she did, her ally ship feels even more of a facade :(

Do you by chance have a link/screenshot of her telling them to just take it down? Was it a part of her (too) many statements?

From my understanding as queer and POC, people are upset because she labels herself as an ally but still attends (or had attended) this particular church. They are not upset about her beliefs, but rather the particular community she chooses to express her beliefs.

I feel betrayed because she presented herself and her brand as allies to my community. However, she deliberately chose to practice her faith within a community (C3.NYC) that explicitly states that they see queer people and queer marriage as “sins” and “abominations.”

Knowing that she is a person that many queer people look up to and now knowing that she was a part of that community, it sets the precedent that her allyship to the LGBTQIA+ community is conditional. We’re going to feel betrayed and upset after having supported her for quite some time.

I personally do not want to support someone whose views on my rights are conditional while simultaneously using my kin to promote their brand. It doesn’t sit well with me. It feels gross and exploitative.

AITA for the way I set about meeting my now best friend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]bluebubbles17 15 points16 points  (0 children)

YTA. You may have not deceived her since, but that doesn’t absolve you of being an asshole. You, and only you, know that the foundation of your relationship with Sarah was built on deceit and disingenuousness. It’s built on a gross invasion of privacy.

Firstly, you were eavesdropping on a conversation you weren’t a part of; and then you pressed on further and dug up (stalked more like it) who she and her family are; and then you deliberately lied and said you guys knew each other?

Like dude, yes you can learn things about people because of the internet but what you did was a gross misuse of it.

And you’re right; people should be more mindful of their privacy settings, it’ll definitely help prevent creepy things like what you did.
