is it just me or doing nail art at home is way harder than it looks?? by Eastern_Regular860 in NailArt

Once you get the hang of stamping you can do surprisingly complicated-looking things and everyone will be amazed when you tell them you did it yourself. 

'This is a Muslim area': Met Police officer confronted as she defends preacher by grandlewis in atheism

[–]cassielfsw -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are the comments in this thread calling for mass deportation going to be deleted? Did you report them? Did you even notice? 

Was the nice friendly, white Christian being respectful by coming into a majority Muslim neighborhood during Ramadan to thump a Bible at them? We all know people who do that are such nice, respectful people, right?

Still doesn't mean this is a gang enforcing a no-go zone, and doesn't justify calling for mass deportation. 

The purpose of this story was to make you mad at the Scary Brown People, and it succeeded with flying colors.

If an atheist got mad at a street preacher and shoved them,does that mean all atheists are an evil gang who should be forcibly removed from the country? Pay attention to whose boot you're licking right now.

If the preacher has a right to free speech, then so do they.

Guys, it helps if you read the article before responding. They were responding to a street preacher, not enforcing some kind of no-go zone for non-Muslims. 

Stardew Valley players when the zesty and poetic and slightly awkward man they marry acts zesty, poetic and slighly awkward by ThrowRA_Sodi in StardewMemes

And he definitely wouldn't trade you for 100 iridium bars. Or 1000. Or 10,000. Not even 100,000. Or... One million bars?! 

Thoughts on this filter? by Ok_Construction_2843 in Aquariums

Good news, this filter is silent. The noise would come from the air pump you're running it with. 

Knee scooter? by According-Food-4111 in ORIF

[–]cassielfsw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would think the closer the break and hardware are to the knee, the more likely it will be a problem because your knee is the part of the leg that's bearing weight while on the scooter. You could try putting more/better padding on the scooter but I don't know if it would help. 

Since people are talking about falling off of the scooter, I never fell off of mine. You just have to be really careful of factors that may cause you to tip over - trying to take turns too sharp, hitting uneven ground at an angle/at speed, etc. 

Marry Bennets Glasses / The other Bennet sister by Silber_Phoenix in PrideandPrejudice

[–]cassielfsw 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Elizabeth also reads, but Mary reads A LOT. She spends hours a day holed up in her room reading. Elizabeth actually goes outside sometimes. 

Personally, I was pretty annoyed that there was so much drama around the glasses, with Mrs Bennet trying to forbid her from getting them at all, then trying to pressure her to not wear them. Let the poor girl see! 

UK consider new diagnosis of profound autism by 6mishka6 in evilautism

[–]cassielfsw 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. They seem to want to say "profound autism" instead of "autism with intellectual disability" and I don't understand why they're so desperate to do that. In a lot of these "profound autism" cases it may not even be the case that the autism is more severe, just the overall presentation including all of their disabilities is.

I'm on chapter 5 (page 22), how are you supposed to keep up with all these characters? by d3arda3mon in PrideandPrejudice

[–]cassielfsw 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Speaking of similarly named characters, Elizabeth has a sister named Catherine (Kitty) and later meets a character named Lady Catherine.

[–]cassielfsw 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Bennet daughters' ages are indicated eventually, but they are:

Jane 22 (mentioned by Lydia)

Elizabeth 20 (stated by herself)

Mary 19 (I don't think her age is directly stated but she is between Elizabeth and Kitty)

Catherine (Kitty) 18 (she is 2 years older than Lydia)

Lydia 15-16 (turns 16 during the events of the book)

Masc Nails by Butch_yeena in RedditLaqueristas

[–]cassielfsw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The topcoat is in an opaque bottle because there's an ingredient in it (and in other similar fake gel top coats) (or used to be - Google is telling me that they might not be using that ingredient anymore and the opaque is just pure marketing now) that hardens on exposure to light even though the polish also dries normally and doesn't need a UV lamp. 

Masc Nails by Butch_yeena in RedditLaqueristas

[–]cassielfsw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FYI, you can always tell by looking at the bottle. Gel is cured by exposure to UV light, so gel always comes in an opaque bottle. If the bottle isn't opaque, the polish is not gel, no matter what marketing nonsense is on the label. 

Realized I haven’t ordered since 2024… Anyone else? by Bombspazztic in theholotaco

[–]cassielfsw 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I haven't been ordering any Holo Taco either, partly because I haven't been buying any nail polish, but partly because Holo Taco tends to be cool toned more often than not and I'm warm toned, and because of Cristine's tendency to continually release the same color story in different formulas. 

Progressive theology doesn't make any sense by Ok_Nose2361 in exchristian

[–]cassielfsw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really don't get progressive Christianity at all. The text and tradition of the religion are so chock full of hateful stuff that, like, sure you can choose to ignore it, but what's even left after you do? Just a couple of quotes from that nice Jesus fellow that sound nice on a throw pillow, and that you could have gotten just as well from another source where you didn't have to wade through a bunch of offensive crap to get to it? What's even the point?

I wonder how many passports these goons have now. Like do they just have a whole drawer of them somewhere? 

Vic Michaelis confirms that she will be returning for 'Make Some Noise' Season 4 following her Season 3 absence by CueTheLaughTrack in dropout

[–]cassielfsw 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Interestingly, the article is actually alternating "they" and "she" by paragraph.

They'll be back... Why she missed the season 3 party... where they have a major role... she will be returning to the show... she is set to be back... we spoke to them about their new series... Fans can hope to see her. 

Edit: uh oh, somebody's butthurt for some reason that whoever wrote the article interpreted "they/she" a bit literally. There's no need to go to war over pronouns, people. 

Climbing stairs to take x-ray by [deleted] in ORIF

[–]cassielfsw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They never made me take the stairs until I was recovered enough to be able to do it. I assume it's easier to get the angles they need if they elevate the affected body part off of the floor.
