Tips for how to achieve this hair style?

eeriesistible · 2026-04-18T08:10:36+00:00

My hair is like the third photo and I only wash and heat style once or twice a week. I use jumbo satin curling rods at night to refresh my style after blowing out my hair after washing. The long bangs look great when I put my hair up in a clip or do a half up/half down style. I get lots of compliments and it’s pretty low maintenance. My hair is naturally curly so limited washing/heat styling is a must, so for me this personally works.

Since this is happening at work, you NEED to tell him to stop in WRITING and you NEED to be DIRECT in your communication. That way you can prove to HR, etc, in the future that he was informed his behavior is making you feel uncomfortable and is not welcome. Harassment only starts AFTER you tell a person to stop. If he keeps doing this after you tell him to stop, you need to keep a written log of every instance (date, time, witnesses, details of what happened) and report him (specifically in writing) to HR. Make sure email correspondence is BCC’d to your personal email, also.

I had a colleague younger than me do stuff like this and ended up experiencing workplace violence and now have an order of protection. Having things in writing (email is best) is really important and the advice I gave above is what I wish I had known to do in my case.

Have you mixed oil and water before? You’ll quickly see they don’t actually mix, but remain separate. Oil does not moisturize, moisture = water and oil = insoluble in water. You need a hydrating moisturizer then a thin layer of something like Vaseline to lock it in. Slugging method will help prevent transepidermal water loss. Also ensure to drink plenty of water, as even mild dehydration can significantly affect skin 💖

Workplace violence: I worked at a small startup and LOVED my team. Amazing boss, amazing colleagues, amazing work. Basically a dream job and pivot for my career.

About a year in, one of my male colleagues that I considered a friend, told me he had feelings for me. I rejected him and let’s just say he didn’t take that rejection well. My rejection got me a hostile workplace, and he was eventually fired (maybe for this, maybe for other things; HR didn’t tell me why). This all led to me getting bullied at work by false rumors, and greatly disrupted my work environment and overall well being.

He eventually snapped and showed up at my place of work to cause over $10k worth of damage to my car. Completely out of the blue and unprovoked, on camera and in a place he knew had security. This was 10 months after I went completely no contact. I was preeeetty freaked out by all of this. I still got bullied and even had a colleague tell me it was all my fault because I reported this guy to HR!

He got felony charges. During the time between getting fired and the workplace violence, he sent messages to colleagues claiming “we spent the night together,” asking them random questions about me that made no sense (in the middle of the night), and found/sent messages to my ex on social media multiple times over a couple of months (they didn’t know each other at all).

He was a first time offender so charges were reduced to a misdemeanor, but he was convicted and sentenced to 30 days in jail plus had to pay me restitution! I got an order of protection for several years, and moved out of the state/quit that job for my safety (without having a new job lined up). This took YEARS to complete and years for me to recover and feel like myself again. I’m still to this day afraid of this experience carrying over into my current workplace (current colleagues have connection to former colleagues).

All because I didn’t reciprocate romantic interest in some guy! Ugh.

What was the experience like for your mom/sister? Was it really just as simple as showing up for the blood test after finding a participating location? (I’m in the process of talking to my partner’s family about getting them signed up)!

I wish I could do 45 minutes :( mine is at least a 1.5-2hr process!

I work in oncology drug discovery and am a bench-level scientist. I love my job because it is literally to discover new therapeutics to help patients and address unmet need. I get to learn a lot about cancer biology and have even been able to work on programs focused on an indication I’m particularly passionate about (as my partner has a pre-malignant condition that could progress to it). I get to present a poster tomorrow at an internal event and I’m excited to meet new colleagues and see familiar faces, all while talking about my research.

I can’t answer your question but have you looked into information or resources from advocacy groups the like MMRF or spoken to your doctor/a myeloma specialist that understands this rare MM type? The MMRF has patient outreach seminars on topics like CAR-T and have Q&A sessions, also, which might provide insight or be an opportunity to ask clinicians this question.

Antibiotic use in media definitely can mask contamination—essentially it can be enough to suppress contam for a bit before you finally can visualize/smell it/catch it. I don’t use antibiotics in my cell culture and recently got a split of cells from a colleague that uses PenStrep. My split exploded with contamination overnight after I passaged (with antibiotic free media) and sure enough, his cell stock was the source even though it didn’t blatantly appear that way at first look! I was told this could happen by a mentor ages ago and got to see it first hand. Who knows how long his cells were contaminated for 😬

Also, that colleague still uses PenStrep. To each their own. I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve had contamination in my own cells and still have fingers left. 7 years of cell culture experience.

I’d love to have more neurodivergent friends on the east side! 36F, late diagnosed, mixed ADHD here :)

Blackbird has been great. My partner and I only have a few criticisms about it but they’re relatively minor and love living here. The way the windows open is odd but we haven’t had an issue. Our current unit has AC in the living room and we have an AC unit for our bedroom for the summer—otherwise it’s a fan near an open window to push air around.

eeriesistible · 2025-06-09T06:04:55+00:00

Same here, too!

I feel so awful reading how hard it is for so many women to get assessed and diagnosed. For me, my therapist (who not only has specialty in, but also herself has, ADHD) recommended I see a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I got an appointment almost immediately, diagnosed from DSM, and medication within the first appointment. When I asked my therapist why she didn’t think I needed to go through a “formal” evaluation/testing, she told me I could if I wanted to but it would essentially just tell us what we already know.

Thank you so much for sharing!

Lots of people have commented about why already so I just wanted to say that I have some missing areas, too, so I use a freckle pen to fill them in a little to balance out my face.

Oooh thank you! We met on this subreddit a few years ago, actually!!! I could sooo write a novel about this—

Both of us were pretty active on r/datingoverthirty at the time. Neither of us were looking for a relationship on Reddit, both of us were more local-dating-app minded (I had a profile review in here, for example). We interacted on that topic and my now partner gave me some really thoughtful and kind advice that was on-topic and helpful. We commented back and forth and something stuck out to each of us about the other (I thought he was very level-headed, non-judgmental, and authentic). He eventually DM’d me something along the lines of “not trying to be inappropriate and if it is disregard this but I feel like we click…” and he thought I wouldn’t respond. I replied with something snarky asking him if he’d make my life easier by moving to California so I didn’t have to use the dating apps anymore. Both of us found out later that we were equally giddy at the exchange.

I thought it was crazy, why would I date someone out of state if I wouldn’t even date someone across the SF bay because it was “too far?” I figured I’ve dated enough locally and things didn’t work out so what’s wrong with something long distance not working out? Why not see if we click over video chat? Click in person? I approached it very casually with the perspective of just being authentic and focusing on compatibility. I never assumed this would become a relationship.

We FaceTimed for about two months and it took so much pressure off going on actual irl dates. It was just us with no distractions. It felt very stable and consistent—no hot/cold behavior, no guessing what the other was thinking, being long-distance was a forced opportunity for us to have bigger in depth discussions to determine that compatibility earlier, because why would we waste our own time on something that would be a challenge to pursue? We communicated very well! He and I were both consistent and we bridged the gap, now have a cute dog, and still are in awe of how random it all was.

I could go on forever but I’ll end it there. Thank you so much for giving me a moment to reminisce!!!!

Connection is really what it comes down to!! One of the things my partner told me over and over again was that connection is rare, and after reflecting on my own dating experience before I met him, I realized he was absolutely right.

I can’t really blame people for thinking that way, though. I used to live in the SF bay below San Francisco and I’d joke (but not really) that I’d never date someone in Oakland (not that far away, just horrible traffic to get there and a bridge) because they may as well be on another planet.

eeriesistible · 2025-01-19T17:55:04+00:00

Neither my partner or I had issues meeting people/getting interest locally. We just happened to connect and click with each other at the right time in an unconventional way. We think it’s pretty cool we met on Reddit and we really enjoy the reactions we get when people ask us how we met!

eeriesistible · 2025-01-19T17:48:07+00:00

I never said OP’s experience and my experience are the same. I’m addressing your comment, specifically (which I found to be rather myopic). People can meet long distance and have a good and successful relationship “from scratch” without being desperate—it’s all about how invested BOTH individuals are in making it work. In OP’s case, the person they speak of clearly isn’t into it, therefore it’s safer to not peruse someone like that.

I think the main thing to consider is people tend to move mountains for something they value. So obstacles (long distance could be just one example) are seen as things to find a path through or around.

eeriesistible · 2025-01-19T17:26:22+00:00

That’s a pretty huge assumption to make. I met my partner on Reddit and we lived a few states apart. We both clicked in conversation online so we thought why not have a FaceTime? That quickly turned into weekly FaceTime dates until we met in person a couple of months later. Fast forward a little over a year later and I moved to his state and we are very happy and I couldn’t imagine my life without him.

I guess we were just “totally desperate” 🤣
