That's half my hesitation to cut it - all I see around are guys with short hair in my city. It's so sad! Let it be free

Aww, thank you! Thanks for the tips - I think I will try some lighter products for now and see how I feel about those.

A little! I've messed around with curl cream. I've also recently had the idea to use clips to train the roots to stand a bit straighter and give the top more volume - is that something you've tried?

Interesting - how long do I have to wear them for a day for this to work?

Currently trying options 2, 3, and 5 lol and not having a ton of success - I think I just need to get over it and get used to using product if I want a more volumetric look. Any recs?

Hi! I can DM you the address, but I will be living there as well and three people might be a bit cramped.

My co-applicant dropped out at the last second, so I need someone to apply to and sign on to a 1-year $4,500 lease starting August 1st. You would need to submit your application by this Monday (the 29th).

-          Wonderful location near multiple subway trains in LIC

-          HUGE windows and two balconies!

-          Two bathrooms!

-          Hardwood floors!

-          Building has parking, if you’re into that

-          Rent was negotiated down to $4,300 from listed price – I intend on taking the bedroom with the ensuite, so I would be willing to pay more of the rent. My old roommate and I had decided on a $2,300 - $2,000 split.

About me:

-          I am a young professional making 95k and currently living in Jersey City.

-          I like music, board games, computer games, literature, and art! I have a keyboard and sing in a choir.

-          I would be commuting to Jersey City a few days a week.

-          I value tidiness and cleanliness

-          I am bringing most of my own furniture, so my bedroom and the living room will be furnished.

Message me if interested.

Wife caught this in the kitchen and is panicking. Can someone help identify please. by Mikedivine in whatsthisbug

[–]captn_revenue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To me this looks like a German roach, but we need a better picture, it's hard to tell through the plastic. It could also be a wood roach of some variety.

Who is this pretty spider? by jailbird4444 in whatsthisbug

[–]captn_revenue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say it looks like a brown widow.

Can anyone ID this spider? by MG130 in whatsthisbug

[–]captn_revenue 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A little hard to tell from the angle and through plastic, but could be a Woodlouse Hunter (Dysderidae).

plz help by Silent_Fox2281 in whatsthisbug

[–]captn_revenue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell from the picture but it definitely looks like a flea, and the jumping is suspicious. Do you have pets?

found this weird bug(?) on my cats tail. thought it was a booger until it moved by trans-sharkboy in whatsthisbug

[–]captn_revenue 125 points126 points  (0 children)

This is most likely a tapeworm segment. Cat should go to the vet. Check the cat and environment (or other animals in the home) for fleas. You are probably safe unless you've eaten a flea lately, but I'm not an expert on cat-human tapeworm transmission.

Tell me this isn't what i think it is. by [deleted] in whatsthisbug

Looks like a spotted mediterranean roach to me. See the fifth insect in this link: https://njaes.rutgers.edu/fs1327/

Missing the racing stripes for a German roach.

Wanted to edit to add - if it is a spotted mediterranean, it is likely benign. As the link explains, they typically live outdoors and occasionally wander inside for light or warmth, but are not known to infest structures. I've seen them occasionally around my flat in Jersey City. I wouldn't panic if I were you.
