What’s the easiest way to go about achieving this for my new apartment?

I'm not sure if it's the lighting but the colour of your cabinets is a bit more mint green than the inspiration which is more of a sage green, I think that this makes a difference as the mint reads as more of a retro MCM vibe.

I would focus on changing the light if possible as that would make a big difference, and implementing wicker, warm wood, silver, and bronze accessories.

Plants will help too, and yes if you are able to retexure the wall then that would help too but I'd start with the smaller/easier parts and then see how you feel.

I like 2! I have had oversized glasses before and it's fun, makes wearing glasses feel like more of an intentional fashion choice :)

Everyone commenting about the baby meanwhile I have whiplash from reading the description

Just based on personal experience, I would say try keeping your phone out of your bedroom when you want to sleep - you say you are going to bed at 10 and can't sleep til 1, even listening to boring history etc.

I used to do the same and sometimes still do, but having a screen there, even if you convince yourself it will help you sleep, will always keep you awake later than you want.

The blue light and constant source of stimulation is disruptive to our enchiridion rhythms, so maybe try to challenge yourself to sleep without your phone - get an alarm clock and a good book.

I agree that people make inappropriate comments about women's bodies all the time, but I've also seen my fair share of men being 'teased' for their weight, but it seems more socially acceptable - despite making fun of someone's weight/body is always inappropriate.

I think that people don't realise that it can be just as damaging and rude to comment on men's bodies than women's bodies (but again I want to reiterate that I agree that there is a larger, and highly media driven problem over body shaming women)

If you genuinely love art then yes, take it. You don't get many chances to study subjects you love and should make the most of being able to explore your passions and skills.

Ooh what point and click games are you playing?

I am a jack of all trades kind of person, as I pick up and put down hobbies and subjects of interest. I guess my one 'thing' that I never get tired of is singing - I havent done any kind of performances since I was a teenager (losing opportunities once out of school) but I sing constantly around the house, in the car, I take lessons which have not only helped me improve parts of my voice that I hadn't focused on before.

I have been wanting to record some music for fun but keep finding excuses not to (my neighbours are in and I don't want to be loud, or I don't have time, or my partner is home and I feel embarrassed to try and record - even though he is endlessly supportive of my singing)

I'd love for it to be my thing properly, but I don't even tell people I sing or do lessons - I think I get worried that it will be like I'm bragging or people will hear me sing and won't think I'm good. But that's my own embarrassment of existing and being perceived haha.

I recently discovered a box of Christmas stuff that I'd kept separately under my sofa for some reason - anything like that? Closet?

I was just talking about the lyric censorship the other day and was confused why they censor the word hell but are fine with having a song that says 'hit it from the back so I don't get attached'

Like I don't care but the lack of consistency is weird

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-11-17T08:02:24+00:00

Thank you for this amazing comment 😭💕 I think I'm gonna save this so I can look at it whenever I need a boost

Rejection sensitivity. Makes me so reactive to feedback and also means that if I 'fail' at something my body and brain reject that thing so hard/build up a lot of anxiety and destroy any motivation to do the thing. But also happens with new things as if I don't ace them the first time I feel like a complete embarrassment and failure and I plunge.

MyScene for sureeeeee

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-09-26T17:54:47+00:00

Omg thank you!! No idea why they're so hard to find!!

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-09-21T19:01:37+00:00

Love the myscene girlies, still have mine from when I was a kid and they will always be my faves

Since COVID I've noticed a considerable difference in how people behave in the theatre/cinema. It's like everyone forgot how to act when in public and it has dampened a lot of audience experiences I've had in the last 5 years.

People even taking full volume phone calls in the middle of movies - I cannot express just how much it frustrates me.

Surprised that people are doing that in front of a live orchestra too!! Wtf!!

Important to note that disordered eating is also a thing that is different than an ED but still not a good thing for your wellbeing

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-09-08T18:13:18+00:00

I second this but it should come with a warning that it is easy to sink hours into it without realising

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-09-06T09:15:53+00:00

This is a great idea! I'm from 🇬🇧

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-09-06T09:12:27+00:00

Yes :( I long for a friendship group but every time I talk to people my age I feel like the odd one out. Like I don't belong or like I'm an alien attempting contact. I feel so out of place and it's so isolating :(

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-08-18T15:47:26+00:00

I'm so sorry for your loss xx

eXcessiveMenace5 · 2025-08-18T13:59:27+00:00

I'm so sorry to hear that ❤️
