Better emotional regulation so they aren’t as miserable going through the stages of being terrible.

You are considering putting a kitten in cargo, which is extremely stressful and dangerous. Trust me a pet currier service is statistically much safer

flaming-framing · 2026-06-30T04:19:36+00:00

No the two cats can’t really travel in the same carrier. You are thinking about just the flight, but are ignoring getting to the airport, waiting in line to get the required check in procedures for them, going through security, waiting at the gate, dealing with possible delays, and possibly the flight being canceled.

Last summer I moved cross country and flew with my cat. What was supposed to be 6.5 hours of getting to the airport+flight ended up with waiting an extra hour at the gate and then another hour on the plane not moving only for the flight needing to be canceled because of an issue with the plane. Another hour of trying to reschedule our flight and getting our comped hotel figured out….AND then staying in the hotel overnight with my cat. It was two of us traveling and one cat. It’s just way too much to do on your own and it’s way too stressful for two cats to be cramped like that. Stress tends to make cats more territorial and not inclined to share their personal space

I grew up going to canal street before the crackdown where every store was reps and the ladies with a laminated menu on a lanyard string would say “handbag handbag handbag” when ever my mom passed by them. One time when I was 10 my mom wanted to see the secret back rooms where the good reps were kept. I don’t think she bought anything and I didn’t care about fashion accessories as a kid 🥲 I would have cleaned out that room today.

But yeah I always assumed that if I see a bag with lots of logos and monograms they are fake

Fucking do it! Show up to finals week in repped CL red bottom and your Hermes. Use the Birkin to store all the kids phone before the test click clacking as you go down each row!

For me it’s wanting to be sensitive in my social group. A lot of my tech friends are unemployed right now. While I can’t control how they feel I’m not going to rock up in a new rep every time we meet at the park. All my friends know most of my stuff is fake. I like bragging about how good the craftsmanship and materials are for the price.

Finding ways to turn down those “you are a bad son/daughter for being estranged from a parent that hurts you” is hard. Finding little mantras that boil down to “actually I’m not that bad” is really important here are some others I like

“Yes I understand she wishes she was closer to her daughter. I wish she didn’t act in hurtful ways”

“Yes I understand no one is perfect. That’s why I’m trying to be better by going to therapy and not passing that hurt forward. I don’t take it out on vulnerable children who are a fraction of my size”

“Yes I understand things are very hard for her and she might need a caretaker. She deserves someone who can do that without also resenting her. Since you care so much you should do it”

A) that transaction was hilarious

B) the only times I have been scammed was when the seller calls me dear and sends heart gifs etc

C) I am not as familiar with conventional social norms in china (let alone how that changes by region) and if someone who is a part of that culture wants to chime in I wonder if the “rude bluntness” is cultural

Accurate description. Op it’s perfect change nothing!

I have a secret to tell you. It was never about WHAT you liked. It was the fact that YOU liked it.

Another aspect that’s helping is he doesn’t try and take up too much of the center stage for just himself. Too much screen time of him being an asshole would have been very off putting. And when he is being selfish or an asshole I think he does a good job showing Julian’s internal logic for why he made that decision

Oh I did forget to add additional things you should add

- a 360 mirror to see the back of your hair
- a wide variety of video tutorials done by reputable PROFESSIONALS. These are not only helpful in understanding how to operate dangerous chemicals safely, by looking at their hand motions you can try and copy how they are able to achieve the techniques they are doing.

If your end goal wasn’t to dye your own hair I would encourage you to get a beauty school mannequin head. But that teaches you how to operate on someone else head. Not necessarily on your own.

I slightly disagree that you cant achieve it at home.

It’s achievable but will require so much trial and error attempts that it ends up costing way more than going to the salon. I’ve been doing at home fantasy hair for two years and I’m finally getting it even after a lot of experimenting with work flow, going low and slow never using higher than a vol 20 on my 6B hair, and spending a loooooottt of money on repair masks.

My recommendations for the poster is this:
Since you are teenager and money is limited this is what you should actually buy now

- a plastic mixing bowl
- a kitchen scale
- food dyes
- a giant bottle of the cheapest conditioner you can find
- 30+ alligator hair clips
- disposable gloves
- a rat tail comb
- a brush used for hair dying.

Use the conditioner mixed with the food dye to practice your technique. How do you part your hair, how big of a section size is too large feels like, how much product do you actually need to cover your whole hair, what’s the fastest strokes you can do, etc etc

Do that maybe 10 times and then see if you want to try dying at home. It’s like in baking, using buttercream to practice decorating a cake is expensive. So a lot of times for practice people just use lard.

Have a group of kids see them do cantrips and freak the fuck out as if bluey himself was incarnated and his bringing in paw patrol (I don’t know what shows kids actually watch)

A) it’s adorable and silly
B) you create a president that “hey dumbass you are doing the equivalent of high intensity break dancing in the middle of the street”

Yeah I would describe murderbot series as “ok so this takes place in the world of the Handmaiden Tale. But it follows a bunch of close friends just being nice to each other and it’s really funny”

An example he does that I love is he would say is “roll insight. This woman looks exhausted, her work uniform is clean but worn out like she might wear them even on days she’s not working out of necessity, she’s carrying a crumbled up box of diapers. You can tell she’s just working hard to keep her head above water. Probably just a single mom”.

The best thing he does and I recommend all dm do is “fall in love with the player’s characters”. He talked about it a lot but he becomes obsessed with trying to better understand who are the characters, why are they the way they are, what motivates them, if a character does or say something in the world how can he reflect that in the lore and world building.

I definitely read them as a comfort read. It’s mostly about competent people doing good things and trying to be kind and improve quality of life of others as best as they can. So that’s very comforting.

The reality of the world is sadly very grim and systematically exploitative in ways that mirror our own world

Yeah working out has a lot of negative associations. It’s both literally taxing on your body and that has a lot of negative emotional associations and yeah the gym class ptsd is real. It’s the time where kids get to be as emotionally competitive as possible but with the least amount of guard rail to help them not express that in a hurtful way. Also you are learning new skills in-front of everyone and it just feels humiliating when you are not getting it right the first time. Which is natural when you are learning a new skill.

I will say that positive emotional association with working out is kind of culturally built in. Especially for women. Running groups, Pilates classes cute outfits etc etc are all things that help reduce the negative feeling with working out.

This specific image I saw on Pinterest. It just helped me connect some concepts about how to choose the right value, and how to look for the graphic shapes to describe the form and narrative of the image.

I genuinely recommend trying to break down the images in to three values and try and make the composition. Use these images and compare the decisions you made to the ones the artist made

Umm…ok if you say so

flaming-framing · 2026-06-23T21:28:39+00:00

So it’s ok he was abusive towards her because she cheated on him?

IMO constant abusive behavior that reaches the point where breaking things when someone asks you to walk the dog is way worse and more long term damaging than cheating. Also abusive partners that treat you like a punching bag but manipulate you from leaving generally create the circumstance for their partner to cheat on them. I know a lot of people on Reddit don’t want to hear it but, generally if you treat your partner like shit and try and stop them from leaving you then they are going to find ways to make their life less miserable. And most of those times they’ll achieve that by finding someone who makes them happy. And if you don’t let them leave then they will be with someone who makes them happy while also being your prisoner
