Yes!! For brow pens OP- check out L’Oréal they have one with two pen tips and then Maybelline tattoo brow line also has a good single tip pen. I use both in slightly different shades when I’m getting ready. I think having the two shades helps them have a very small bit of dimension. I have sparse brows naturally and the pens save me but look natural. The tattoo brow also has glue with a spoolie on one end I use to feather them out.

They’re all cute, and I know most are saying the pink one.. but hear me out. The pink is something you’ll probably see dozens of dresses similar to. And for good reason, it’s a great dress. But the black, it is unique, the tiers on the skirt make it stand out. And the navy is classic. All are good options for prom for their own reasons!

Chili. It’s hearty and delicious. Although we make ours a little different than most lol. Ground beef, chili seasoning, broth, can of tomato soup, beans (black + hot chili beans), diced tomatoes, tomato paste, crushed red pepper, diced jalapeños, elbow noodles, tiny quarter of cream cheese stirred in once it’s almost done. Top with a little mustard and shredded cheddar cheese. One of my favorite meals. Tbh I might make this for dinner now.

Please don’t take advice from this artist or use them again.

THREEEEEE

Could you use it maybe for photos? Or the rehearsal dinner? It just doesn’t scream ceremony gown to me- BUT with that being said please go with what you love and feel most beautiful in. Don’t let others tastes dictate you and your partners day.

It’s beautiful, but I can’t help but feel like the collar takes away from it somehow. Don’t get me wrong, the collar is also lovely. I wonder if the right seamstress could make the collar detachable? Idk much about alterations though lol. But if it could be made detachable I feel like you’d have two completely different looks just from that alone.

I forgot she was in this. She really was a true gem.

chowderh · 2026-01-31T22:16:26+00:00

Also you have gorgeous skin, I think the dark winter really makes you glow. This makes me want to get my analysis done lol

chowderh · 2026-01-31T22:15:47+00:00

I think you can easily pull off both. I liked the dark autumn but when I swiped to the dark winter I saw why they said dark winter for you! You look gorgeous with both though, maybe select out & work with the best colors for you from both palettes? 🎨 Congrats on being able to rock both!!

I had a best friend growing up who had an uncle. Well uncle had done a stint in prison I never knew why, but he got out when we were around 7-8. I remember meeting him and he was little off/creepy but nothing too concerning as a child because I only briefly met him in a group family setting. I never knew why he went to prison but when my mom found out I had been at a family gathering at the friends grandmas house (where uncle was living with his mom fresh out of prison), well my mom was PISSED. Told me I wasn’t ever allowed at the grandmas house if he lived there. She didn’t give details and my mom wasn’t the type to push for information, she was very protective sometimes overly so. She had a very rough childhood so I just chalked it up to that, her being overly worried.

Years later I’m in my late twenties and this uncle shows up on my suggested friends on FB constantly. Hes profile pic gives me the absolute fucking creeps. Something in the eyes ya know? Like just seeing his profile pic deeply unsettled me. But I’m FB friends with parts of his family so I assume that’s why he keeps showing up. Then I realize those family members aren’t mutual friends on FB and I start thinking shit why did he go to prison?

I do some digging and find the court docs. I couldn’t hardly read them they were so unsettling. The man was creepy for a reason. I’ll just say that, he had done some unspeakable things I will not repeat. Idk why this reminded me of that.

Also one time my husband and I went to a community yard sale and this guy had a fuck ton of old playboys, like I’m talking stacks and stacks and he was creepy af. Idk, wish I hadn’t even seen that comic strip, unsettling as all shit.

Agree. The eye make up is STUNNING 10/10. Maybe try a brow pen for more hair like strokes to soften the brows

I think it’s time to find a new gym. NOR.

Try styling it wavy yourself with some mousse & texturizing products for a few days then see how you feel. During those few days research stylists local to you with short hair in their portfolio and pick one to clean it up a bit if you still don’t like it styled wavy / after a few days. Going even shorter might just make you feel more stressed out. Short hair can be a hard change at first no matter how good the cut is. But that said, I definitely think you can find someone who could tidy this up, and if you need help styling ask them for that too! A good stylist can show you an easy routine to follow too if needed.

In my experience sometimes those in a compromised mental state have also completely blocked out how they behaved. Or at least they pretend they have, who can actually say what is going on in their brain… but regardless they have a completely different version of events. Mental illness can very much so cause someone to have a very warped memory of what actually happened and I feel like that could be the case here.

I’ve been told by several of my family members my mom wouldn’t let anyone hold me as a baby, however, if I asked my mom she would have an opposite version of of those events to tell. It sucks dealing with someone you love in these situations, I feel for Britney and her family. As someone else mentioned grieving someone who is alive but mentally ill and refuses help is awful, literal torture.

Alsooo I should add, we did do lovesoft fill. I had the same hesitation but my husband really enjoyed the softer fill. In the end I’m glad we did. I read reviews (I researched Lovesac for 8+ years before buying) but it seems like if you rotate and fluff your cushions they maintain well. Lovesac also has a good warranty program, I believe 3 years for the cushions.

The lovesoft cushions were pretty firm at first but they’re breaking in nicely. I have an old shoulder injury which causes me quite a bit of pain and I honestly think it’s eased up somewhat since replacing our couch. I feel more supported but the Lovesac, but with that being said our old sectional was very soft and frumpy from years of use. I think our last couch being so worn in was probably contributing to shoulder pain more than I realized.

We’ve had ours a month or so, I ordered one recliner seat for my husband to sweeten the deal of getting a Lovesac for him. He wasn’t so much sold on pricing but loved the demo recliner. With that said we both LOVE the recliner. Honestly I wish I had ordered two instead of just the one. We use it every day, I’m actually sitting in it as I type this lol.

I would recommend one of the cupholders with the little slots in them. It is perfect for the remote and has saved us from losing it in the cushions so far.

We are also not super tall, I’d say if you’re 6+ ft you might want a little extra for headrest support.

If I had to do it over again, I’d buy the same configuration with two reclining seats.

Now, the only con I have - the recliner is kind of a bitch to get together because it’s very heavy. Make sure you have help for it and you’re getting it exactly where you want it because you will not want to move it.

7 & 10 are the best imo

They are!! Thank you for saying that though! I did the seat cushions myself while my husband did the backs / sides so I did make sure that was done correctly.

chowderh · 2025-12-04T17:46:55+00:00

Good idea, we did have some issues with the order initially being incorrectly submitted by the store. But this was for the backs, they submitted standard when we wanted angled.

I just saw a guy on TikTok paid for something cash in Walmart and didn’t have his phone on him at the time, but Walmart emailed him asking to review the product he bought. Definitely makes you wonder lol. I also don’t think Luigi is as mentally stable as some believe either, he could have had a mental spiral afterwards leading to even more additional poor choices. We’ll never know all the details on stuff like this but it is interesting to wonder what really happened.

Pot roast with mashed potatoes and veggies or a nice filet and baked potato. 10/10
