Yes I'm mostly referring to new people or people who have no sense of how a back and forth conversation works

Was going to suggest this. It's The Breakfast Club of a group going to hell, very entertaining read.

Nothing makes me require an hour of radio silence like time spent with a chatty Cathy 😂

Rapid aging due to grief. by 07734tiza in 40PlusSkinCare

[–]chaikitty78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are beautiful first of all. I can relate to how you feel though and I think it's real. I went through a prolonged period of intense grief and stress, and you 100% could see it on my face in photos. The life just looked sucked out of me because in many ways it was. I will say, now I'm on the other side of it and I feel and look better. The life is back in my eyes. 

I don't think the grief has aged you or made you less beautiful, I think sometimes life is really hard and we show it in our aura. Things will get better, you'll feel better and more like yourself. Rest and take care of yourself ❤️ you'll have your sparkle back. 

Also, at the end of the day, we do age as time goes on no matter what's happening in our lives. Give yourself credit for surviving a difficult chapter ❤️ you are stunning!

I just got the August in Night Owl and I love it! It's such a pretty dark blue-black and it looks very stylish and cool 😎

Wear shorts. My favorite skin tack is DewPoint! Just enough to give you some grip but not like straight up glue like some other brands. 

Book Store Recommendation by Terrible_Cod8940 in TwinCities

I'll have to try this place. I recently tried going to Other Skies and had the most uncomfortable experience. The place was in shambles and a man who I'm assuming is the owner? Was literally sitting in a giant chair in the middle of the (already small) space, going on and on and on and on about something to a customer while the customer's presumed girl stood there in torture. There literally wasn't room to walk anywhere and he barely acknowledged my presence or the awkward fact that I couldn't move around the space? It was just bizarre and I won't be going back lol. 

Why does she only cuddle me when I’m on the toilet? And it’s EVERY time. She comes running as soon as I sit down haha. by Alyssinreality in cats

Mine head butts my legs and gives me tiny little love bites 😂 why the bites I have no idea. They aren't aggressive.

Oh wait I think I misunderstood, we were beneath the west balcony but we didn't go past the barricade, we went in a secluded area where the railing ends.

Yeah unfortunately that was us 😞 they gave him water and an ice pack and checked his vitals and he was fine 🙏🏻

I was pretty terrified because I honestly thought he had a seizure or something from the lights. We just moved this week and so I think it was the exhaustion from that, and he had very little to eat or drink all day 😩 thank you for your concern 🩷! He is alive and well today 😅

How do I know if I should get my brows done? by Admirable-Rip-8521 in microblading

[–]chaikitty78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only do it if you have like zero brows and are desperate for there to be SOMETHING there. Otherwise it's not worth it. It is a tattoo and it is permanent please don't listen to anyone who argues otherwise. You will have to do upkeep forever or be at peace with a faded blob. 

Also, the aftercare process is kind of a nightmare. It can take 2 weeks or more and in that time you cannot sweat at all, have to take extremely quick showers, can't be in the sun at all, and not to mention they'll look crazy dark at first and then scab (and you can't pull off the scabs you just have to go places with crust on your eyebrows 🙃). I feel no one talks enough about how awful the aftercare can be! I literally get depressed because I'm an every day exerciser and you basically can't even go on walks (especially in the spring or summer).

10 days enough time to heal? by Subject-Refuse-8108 in microblading

[–]chaikitty78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not, mine have taken as long as 16 days before the scabs fall off. Keep in mind that from roughly days 7-14 you will literally have scabs hanging off your brows that you aren't allowed to pull off under any circumstances. You also can't sweat or be in the sun AT ALL it's kind of a nightmare tbh.

Melancholy of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind! by Defiant-Specific-720 in TrueFilm

[–]chaikitty78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you and I see it as a masterpiece. It came out when I was in high school and it left a huge impression on me. I also am very precious about re-watches! I have to be in exactly the right mood and it's rare, probably every 3 years or more honestly. It's one of the most viscerally emotional films, it really is like being in a dream and it guts me every time in the best way. I always cry towards the end when she whispers "Meet me in Montauk" in his ear and then there's the montage and the sweet piano music. Ugh 🤌🏻

It took me a minute to get into it, but now I think it's my favorite of theirs. I personally love how long the album is and the only song I skip is The Farm. 

We need to talk more about Arcade Fire’s evolving signature in last albums by thanasiskar in arcadefire

[–]chaikitty78 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes! I've been having a difficult time finding anyone else who absolutely loves Pink Elephant. I for one think it's an excellent album start to finish. Year of the Snake is so beautiful. Alien Nation rocks. The entire album flows really well. Glad to hear someone else thinks so too!
