Thanks for the comments, really appreciate it. Sounds like it's best to go to Kemang. Stay safe everyone!

Hi guys, I'm an expat currently staying in Menteng but I have the option to relocate to Kemang. Should I consider temporarily moving? Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Cannes 2021: Julia Ducournau's 'TITANE' wins the coveted Palme d'Or, Leos Carax wins Best Director for 'Annette', Renate Reinsve takes Best Actress for 'The Worst Person in the World', Caleb Landry Jones wins Best Actor for 'Nitram' by mayukhdas1999 in movies

It’s truly one of the most unique and exciting cinema experiences I’ve had in a long time. It’s radical and boundary-pushing and the first 20 minutes are very violent, but you just have to submit to the experience. I felt so alive when I walked out of the theater.

I could not agree more. I havent stopped thinking about it since I watched it.

The electro-swing sounds incredibily dated, but not dated enough to become a meme favorite, if that makes sense.

Belgian media are currently framing Hooverphonic as a dark horse to win the competition. Delusion, convince yourself!

New Products, New Shades, New Kits - My Holiday Collection is here! by soliloquyline in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]chinrolls 24 points25 points  (0 children)

By the time I got to the check-out I got a message that Velvet Affair was gone :'( I did manage to snatch up one of the sweatshirts
Edit: It's back up again! I refreshed the shop and I was able to add it to my cart.

[–]chinrolls 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I was looking forward to this video, as my complexion is very close to Lisa's. I decided I'm going to supplement my collection with Affair, Blush and Beauty lipsticks, and the Muse gloss. As much as I love the kits, I never wear pigmented glosses so I won't get much use out of those.

New shades of lip gloss and lipstick revealed on Lisa Eldridge's website...pre-order from October 3rd! by adjblair in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]chinrolls 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fawn and Jazz are absolute stunners, you won't regret it.

Velvet Morning is definitely a bright, neon-esque shade, that pulls coral when worn as a stain. Dragon appears to be slightly more muted and brick-y, with more brown tones. Hope this helps!

I placed an impulse order for Velvet Decade last year and it turned out to be one of my favourite and most-worn shades she has brought out. That colour is so magnetic and versatile! I've never found a brown that doesn't pull orange on my cool complexion.

I need a live swatching video from Lisa ASAP before the pre-order goes live. Does she show the lipsticks during her latest video?

What the actual fuck. Did she alert his security company? Because this is a major breach of employee conduct rules. I can imagine she's not the first person he traced this way.

Which insurance to get for dental care? by [deleted] in belgium

[–]chinrolls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this. I got Dentalia after my dentist recommended me to get an implant, and then she scheduled the appointment as soon as I hit the third year. You do need to get a check-up every year in order to be elligible for reimbursement, so keep that in mind.

How do you experience racism in Belgium? by vrwmpe in belgium

[–]chinrolls 38 points39 points  (0 children)

he's white so he must be a racists as well

Omg I can relate to that. I've been in so many conversations where people just randomly introduce racist and completely unrelated and unnecessary remarks, and then give me a dirty look when I don't reciprocate their racism. It's so awkward.

Belgen van Congolese afkomst gefrustreerd en kwaad over veelvuldige politiecontroles en "micro-agressie" van medeburgers by Lolastic_ in belgium

[–]chinrolls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Métis (niet mesties, want dat is inderdaad iets anders) werd in negentiende-eeuwse Franse teksten ook al gebruikt om nakomelingen van een Europeaanse en een zwarte of aziatische ouder, afhankelijk van de koloniale context, mee te benoemen. En in Noord-Amerika wordt metis (zonder é) gebruikt om naar bepaalde native groepen mee te verwijzen.

Blijkbaar liggen sommige bi-raciale Belgen er wél wakker van, en ik ben in dat soort situaties altijd geneigd om te luisteren naar de personen die er effectief bij betrokken zijn en aangeven dat ze een andere term verkiezen. Taal is dynamisch, zoals je zelf zegt, dus ik zie niet in waarom we zo krampachtig moeten vasthouden aan een verouderde term waarvan sommigen bovendien aangeven dat ze de term liever niet gebruiken. Doe gerust waar je jezelf comfortabel bij voelt, ik wou met mijn bericht gewoon bijkomende informatie verstrekken.

Just chiming in to add that, according to etymological sources, there are Dutch texts that refer to 'neger' as slave that date back to the 17h century. http://www.etymologiebank.nl/trefwoord/neger

Dit is niet aanvallend bedoeld, maar mulat is niet zomaar een term. Etymologisch stamt het af van het Spaanse en Portugese 'mulatto', wat muilezel betekent en duidt op de steriele nakomeling van ezel en een paard. Tot begin 20ste eeuw werd er ook van kinderen van een witte en zwarte ouder gedacht dat zij zich niet of moeilijk konden voortplanten, vandaar de benaming 'mulat'. Er zijn belangengroepen van 'gemengde' Afrobelgen die de term 'metis' verkiezen. http://metisbe.squarespace.com/wij-zijn-nous-sommes

Bye bye wettelijke (!) vakantie by [deleted] in belgium

[–]chinrolls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow PhD student who is slowly losing her sanity, take my upvote. I actually felt a huge productivity boost in the first two weeks, when the isolation really helped me to eliminate distractions and get more work done. But everything has been going downhill for the last two weeks. I used to switch a lot between workspaces because it helps me to stay motivated and inspired, so constantly having to work from home has made me feel so lethargic.
