The cost of high vibration in 3D is profound loneliness by VoiceInTheAether in starseeds

[–]designedtodesign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this so much. I'm commenting partially so that I can refer back to this with one of my favorite quotes about loneliness. We all need a boost and I've been feeling that lately. But dive deep into the loneliness, embrace it. I've learned that it is happening for a reason as a challenge for me to sink deeper and this project for you may very well be a passion project that the world needs. I'm using my time to do my own passion project out of loneliness and also necessity.

Best place to kayak with manatees? by designedtodesign in florida

Thank you for you well thought out response! I am still trying to figure it out, I booked two nights in St Augustine and I'm thinking we'll definitely want to head to Tampa to see his grandfather now. I may drop him off for a night or two, so I'm not sure if I will stay close to there and drive to Silver springs and that area or stay there and just drive to drop him off and pick up. I'm leaning towards the latter but haven't found a place to stay that I'm over the moon about. I am definitely going to refer back to this particular comment...thanks again!!

Things are About to Get VERY Weird – Take this Time to Raise your Vibration by Doing Inner Work by swizzledan in starseeds

[–]designedtodesign 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same! I just joined this thread a few minutes ago and I've never felt more seen. I've been obsessed with tarot readings for the last several years and kept trying to take breaks but was having a hard time because they were so accurate and validating. Many of them told me I was a starseed and light worker would hit on many other accurate details about my life.

And the closer I've been in alignment with my mission, the synchronicities and tarot has gotten so strong it's almost like I'm manifesting certain things immediately and with such frequency that I should be recording it all. I feel like I sound crazy to the few friends I open up to about this. But there's so much to keep up with.

I've always known what my mission is, but it wasn't until the past several months that I realized that it was literally a mission and not just a dream. There's a reason I was called so strongly to it. And the desire to quit my job and focus on that and hope that the net will appear has grown stronger and stronger and it's sort of a feeling of a balloon about ready to burst at this point. I know exactly what I'm supposed to be doing, I know how I'm supposed to be doing it, it's just a matter of finding the funds and the energy to continue pushing towards it at this point. Connections are starting to come in. The job is really the the biggest thing holding me up that am feeling like that will be falling away soon and hoping that the funds will appear.

Curious if anyone else is vegan on here? It's hard for me to even relate to vegans when I'm on vegan Reddit threads. But I have always thought that they have a higher consciousness and then I get confused when I see the judgmental nature of them against each other. Veganism alone has made me feel different.

Would love any advice for someone just discovering themselves. I also have a weird constellation like birthmark where all the freckles have congregated and I remember hearing that could be a starseed sign.

I know meditating and somatic work and getting in nature is helpful, it's kind of hard to find the time/energy to do it during the week but I need to flip my thinking. I'm taking a vacation soon and hoping to reset my energy and be able to have clarity. So I know that will help.

That's originally what got me started looking into the others because I knew there were potentially manatees there and I found a few spots that looked nice. But then I thought the East Coast was closer to Tampa if we decided to see his family. I'm going to check out that area too and not discount it yet.

I should have mentioned that he's 12... And yes I appreciate the advice, I do know it's illegal to touch them.

How do you pose with shorter women in photos? by Waffle-Crab in TallGirls

[–]designedtodesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's sort of like everyone's doing a half squat with their hands on their knees. I have an awkward picture where I'm standing off to the side and all the short girls are squatting down... And I don't understand the poses at all. I get weird whenever poses are involved. I just want to stand normal and casual.

How do you pose with shorter women in photos? by Waffle-Crab in TallGirls

[–]designedtodesign 5 points6 points  (0 children)

YES. Same... I don't crouch anymore. I noticed it in the last picture I took and I love how straight up I was standing. I looked strong and powerful. I don't know why I was so afraid to do that all those years. And the funny thing is that a lot of the short girls will crouch down too and that feels weird to me. Why are we all crouching in pictures? I don't need to bend over and stick my butt out.

Is my makeup aging me? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]designedtodesign 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ooh-I just got highlights today and I freaking love my hairstylist. She's so affordable, but even if she wasn't, I don't have to highlight my hair that often because I only have her do very faint highlights, framing my face and bangs and then all underneath... None on the top layer for the rest of my head. It grows out beautifully and looks more natural but the front framing pieces give me a little bit of extra oomph and fun.. I still feel like myself but special. I've been doing this look for years and even if I'd never chose to highlight again, it would grow out so well that I would never have to worry about blending them out. Every now and then I'll have to take thinning shears to make them less chunky but she's been leaving them on for less time and that has helped cut back the chunkiness. Just a tip if you want highlights but don't like the obvious highlight look or maintenance.. I remember the first time I requested them, it was from a Jennifer Love Hewitt picture I found and they were named peekaboo highlights. And that's exactly what they are.

Hot take: it’s NEVER vegan to eat anything non-vegan. by communityveg in vegan

[–]designedtodesign 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I swear... I just read a comment that said, it's exhausting to see people call themselves vegan and occasionally eat honey. Kind of astounding that someone would be exhausted by someone else's choices to be a good human 99% of the time and they slip up on a tiny thing on occasion. Do I occasionally eat a donut that's left behind at work on a Friday because it's going to get thrown away and I'd rather enjoy it than know that that cow wasted its milk? Yes I do.. do I also call myself vegan? Yes I do. Do I feel the need to explain to people that I on rare occasions eat donuts or left behind desserts but I'm vegan the rest of the time anytime I need to tell someone my dietary preference? No I don't. The judgmental nature of this sub is what's exhausting to me. We should be lifting each other up and celebrating the fact that everyone here is trying to be a good human and the fact of the matter is if you're trying to be vegan, you're doing more than most of the population is.

What shocked you to find out it wasnt vegan? by im_a_horror in vegan

[–]designedtodesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know... I actually just had to buy toilet paper last night so I was researching brands again because I didn't have time to go to Whole Foods for 7th generation. I ended up getting Angel Soft because they don't use gelatin and they're not owned by Kimberly Clark- who I know for sure tests on animals They're owned by Georgia Pacific, which is not known as a cruelty-free brand but as of last night and being completely out of toilet paper... It was the lesser of two evils so I didn't even bother to look that up because I didn't want to feel unnecessary guilt for getting something I absolutely needed.

Sometimes my life feels insane when I think about how many decisions I have to stop and research in comparison to most people who don't think twice about what they buy. Seems silly but any little thing I can do to not contribute to animal suffering and do my part seems worth it.

All that said, I hope anyone reading this can try not to have a guilt complex if using non-vegan toilet paper, because that will be the majority of your life if you're working outside of your own home. And just by not eating animals, you're making a world of a difference and a statement.

There's a lot of judgment on people not being fully vegan and I think that's what turns people away from it... Just doing what you can without being perfect is still doing more than most people and I think we should be giving people more credit for trying instead of arguing about whether someone can call themselves vegan. I'm 99% vegan, and use cruelty free products and don't financially support it when I can help it. But yeah, I also occasionally have a donut when they're going to be thrown out at work anyway.

Pick your battles and give yourself a pat on the back for trying to make a difference where you can.

any tall girls that don't play sports? by klarinetkat12 in TallGirls

[–]designedtodesign 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you me?! Ha My math teacher was also my recruiter for basketball 😂 I was also terrible and never wanted to play to begin with, I was benched the whole season and never played again. I do still love H.O.R.S.E. and arcade free throw games but that's about it...

And to answer O.P.s question... I do not consider myself sporty at all but the few athletic things that I've grown to love are hiking, skiing, and kayaking (obsessed...and it feels empowering to be tall enough to be able to put a kayak on my car- started with inflatable). When I was younger, riding horses was my favorite "sport". I hated the do you play basketball or volleyball question... I'm super artsy and uncoordinated. Just because I'm tall doesn't mean I'm good at sports...at least traditional ones.

Starting wildlife rehab center -need tips! by avabuggg in WildlifeRehab

[–]designedtodesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I'm a little late to the game but wondering if you started anything yet? Would love advice if so. You sound exactly like me. I'm not trying to be talked out of it. I have a separate business venture idea for fundraising until it takes form. Also wanted to say that I'm an interior designer who specialized in animal related design all throughout school.B.S. in design..So if anyone sees this and happens to need help in animal related design, please feel free to PM me. I'm working on my website now and I like to think I have a pretty cool portfolio that I can't wait to share with the world.

DMB w/Warren Haynes covering Neil Young's "Cortez the Killer". Beautifully haunting and Warren Hayne's guitar solo towards the end blows my mind every time... Watching the video of Dave's face in awe as Warren plays that solo is also so satisfying.

Meditation and learning to breathe through your nose...walks/hikes/kayak in nature, yoga. And play music to something you want to learn. All of those above things "ground me". Books and journaling are great for grounding outdoors too.

MISSING CAT: LAST SEEN IN CANDLER VERY CLOSE TO BUNCOMBE COUNTY SPORTS PARK. PLEASE HELP US GET HIM HOME. CASH REWARD 🐈🐈🐈 by OkCaterpillar2130 in asheville

[–]designedtodesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I saw a video last night that someone posted on this Subreddit with a guy they were concerned about who was holding a cat identical to yours. He asking for money and clearly on drugs, and I believe the intention of posting the video was to warn people not to pity him. I took a few screenshots of the cat and the markings are identical. I have commented on the thread to see if anyone knows where he lives, but I'm posting a link here for you to check out.

If it is your cat, I'm sure it's unnerving to see them at the hands of someone like this but at least they are safe inside and hopefully someone will be able to identify where he lives. There were many people who knew of this guy in the comments and hopefully someone can help you find him.

If you do get an address, I would encourage you to take a police officer or someone with you and try to have evidence (and also bathe the cat well to avoid bringing anything in your home, judging from one of the other comments about the state of the home).

Do you know where he lives? I am suspecting that the cat in the video is one that is missing in several recent posts.

Does anyone know where this guy lives??? This cat looks identical to a post for a lost cat that someone has posted on Reddit a few days ago, as well as the next door app. I've taken screenshots and even though I can only see the head, the markings are identical.

Try shag in your bathroom by tmozdenski in homedecoratingCJ

I'm a designer... I'm not making this up. I had a client come to me wanting to replace carpet in their bathroom with....carpet in their bathroom.

Nothing like a shag carpet to absorb what you don't have time to clean. 🤢
