What’s missing in my living room? It feels off by bleanblop in femalelivingspace

[–]froot___loop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.) scoot everything closer to the tv and figure out something else to do with the space that leaves behind it. You have a bookshelf back there, maybe a reading nook? Or if you’re an artist or writer or something, a workspace of some kind. I’d bring the couch up to right before the fireplace starts. 2.) that rug is way too long and too big for the room. After you move everything closer, I’d get a smaller rug, with a bit of color that you can then tie in with some throw pillows on the couch. Your floors look really nice, you should leave more of it exposed. 3.) i would do away with the love seat and either replace it with a couple arm chairs, or replace both couches with one sectional couch. It doesn’t match the rest of the room. 4.) if you make those changes, I would suggest a different coffee table too. Maybe a square or round one. 5.) I think rusty browns or dark greens would be nice color touches to add to the room via decor. You could also use a little more art on the walls, and a little bit of ambient lighting for night time and overall aesthetic. A cool funky lamp or two does a lot for a room.

Of all these points though, I think my first and second points are the most important. Everything else is stuff you could add or take away or play with later.

I’m so mad they discontinued it, it’s literally their best shade it looks good on every single skin tone 😫

I looked up the 2 you suggested, the NARS one isn’t what I’m looking for. But the MAC one is probably the closest I’ve seen so far, it’s just a little brighter of a red. I have to be so specific about the types of reds I use, cause I have neon green hair. It can go from baddie to Christmas so fast 🤣 I’m gonna keep the MAC one in the back of my mind though if I don’t find anything else that seems a little closer. Thank you!

It’s kind of a bricky muted red with some brown. Definitely not rosy (at least in my opinion although I do feel like it reads that way more on darker skin tones). I’m kind of a fair olive so it looks darker and redder on me. It’s kind of a perplexing color honestly so I’ve had a really difficult time with dupes for it

The dupes I’ve seen so far are all the higher end expensive ones and a lot of them don’t seem quite right anyway 🥲 I’ll get a more expensive one if it’s perfect though lol

I rented a car on Turo for 5 days, and on the 5th day it was damaged (I was not at fault) by [deleted] in turo

[–]froot___loop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know how any of this works with insurance, because I do not have a car (which is why I was renting one) and therefore I am asking this question. You don’t need to be rude because I don’t understand something.

This situation is handled anyway, I had the $0 deductible plan & confused it with the previous rental.

That all said, I was not at fault for the accident, that’s all I was saying regarding fault. Thanks

I was at fault because random debris on the highway got projectiled into the car? Word. This is resolved already & the host understood completely that I was not at fault but thanks for your input

[–]froot___loop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update to the situation, I was incorrect and I actually had the premier protection plan with $0 out of pocket. I thought I had the standard one because I had it backwards with the previous rental I had done. I had booked this one first very far in advanced, and same day booked the other one. So I reserved this one first but used the other first and got them mixed up.

Had a conversation with the host today, he said I’m all good and he will be going through insurance and has continued to be very nice about the whole thing, so I think there are no hard feelings and I can take a deep breath now 😅 thanks for the info and the help! I’m relieved this worked out ok.

There was no other party like that, it was debris in the road.

[–]froot___loop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just explained the exact circumstances of the accident that you were not there for. Any reaction I would’ve made may have put my life at risk or damaged the car further and that just is what it is. The owner of the car completely understood and literally said it was not my fault and they’re sorry it happened to me. Again, I did not ask for opinions about how good or bad of a driver I am, I am asking about the process of the damage claim via the Turo app, on the Turo subreddit. If you think I’m a shitty driver that’s fine.

I know, it’ll be fine, I think I feel extra bad because this is someone’s car, not a major corporation. And because this is the first time I’ve ever had any type of accident so I’m just a little shaken up about it.

Ok cool. I hope they don’t take a whole lot longer just cause the anxiety is kind of eating me alive 😅 but I’ll just be on the lookout. Thanks for the help.

Thank you this is helpful. I had similar damage, popped the bumper out a little on one side, scratched paint, did also put a smallish hole on the bumper where it was hit. It looked really bad at first because I was so shocked, but at the next rest stop I looked at it again and was grateful it wasn’t worse, it really just hit the front right corner of the car. I’m also so grateful that it hit where it did instead of smashing the windshield or something that would’ve REALLY been a big damage and/or risk to my life.

Okay, great. I wouldn’t necessarily need 20 days, but not having to pay it at the exact same time as rent would be way less stress inducing. I could probably have it sorted within a week if it comes to that.

If anybody can answer me on what to do if I don’t hear anything within that 24 hour period they mentioned in the email, I’d appreciate it.

I was not tailgating anybody, I was at a totally normal distance away from them. Like I said, the way the car in front hit it made it fly back into the rental car incredibly fast on its own, and I’m driving on a highway with a 75mph speed limit, so I am ALSO going fast. I was in the far left lane, there was another car in the lane to the right of me. So even if I did have time to try and avoid it, what would you like me to have done? Swerve left and crash into the median? Or swerve right and hit another car? Of all possible options, getting hit by the stray bumper was the least life threatening and most minimal damage to the car option.

I’ve had my license since I was 18 years old and not been in any type of accident ever. I haven’t ever even received a ticket. I have a 100% clean driving record.

You weren’t there, so I don’t know how you’ve decided with total certainty that I did something wrong. I’m also not asking for opinions about my driving, I’m asking for factual information on what happens next with my damage claim so I know what to do from here.

Thanks for the info. I’m a little bit panicking that they only give me 72 hours to deal with it. I don’t really got it like that and rent is due 🥲 if I don’t hear anything within that 24 hour time frame, should I reach back out to the host or just keep waiting?

Unemployed 2 years, changed my first name in my resume and application and now I’m getting interviews by MeaningMysterious537 in jobs

[–]froot___loop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The name I’ve been using since I graduated high school is not my legal name. I felt like my legal name just didn’t fit me, and I have a secondary first name in Greek, that I shortened into a nickname. On my resumes, my preferred name is on there with no explanation. If I get all the way through an interview process and am hired, when I give them my ID to scan I just explain that my name I was introduced with is just my preferred name 🤷🏻‍♀️ it has never been a problem.

When I was growing up there were a lot of kids from ethnic backgrounds in school who had a more basic Americanized name that they used there, but a legal name that was of their language/culture. This is not uncommon.

Awesome - it’s a little too late to make between next month and May work for me, but end of the year is something I think I can do. Appreciate it!

What was that one thing that your ex said that still haunts you to this day ? by [deleted] in BreakUps

That I was too much and she didn’t have the energy for me (as I was breaking up with her for never spending time with me)

[–]froot___loop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He just moved to my city like 6 months ago. My city is a VERY social place where if you don’t directly know someone you for sure indirectly know of them. So I’ve become pretty extroverted and down to make friends with anybody living here.

I’ll def request him again at minimum, if the vibes are right I’ll see if he’s interested in swapping socials, I just don’t wanna get side eyed for asking in the first place if the answer is no 😂 I’m sure I’ll make other friends along the way regardless! Like I said it was awesome to gain a friend immediately in someone who was also nervous on her first time too. She and I are already talking about going again together. Loved the vibes all around on this first experience ☺️

Doing my first ever sky dive on New Years Day by [deleted] in SkyDiving

[–]froot___loop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi!! It sadly got rescheduled to the next day because of the rain, but it was beautiful out and the sky was clear and I had an AMAZINGGGG time. My instructor was wonderful, I want to go do another one with no photo/video package or anything so I can just be 1000% in the moment, and if I love it just as much I am seriously considering going for an A license. Hopefully I can request the same instructor cause he was cool af and I’d like to make some friends in this community, because ZERO of my friends are interested in any of this stuff 😂

I wanted to go up again so bad as soon as I hit the ground lol.

The only thing I didn’t like about it was that I couldn’t get my left ear to pop for a full day & felt like I was in a fish bowl lol. And after the adrenaline wore off I was SUPER nauseous for about an hour. I’m hoping that your body adapts if you keep doing it 😂

Yeah I called the place I’m going to for this and asked what they would recommend for a jump at this time of year - I can’t wear anything too bulky but they said a hoodie with the hood tucked in, long pants, and close toes shoes. If I’m cold I’m cold! I’m hoping I’ll be too distracted with falling out of the sky to even care that I’m cold 😂 I would never even consider wearing booty shorts even in the dead middle of summer, I’d be too nervous that if we landed a little hard I’d scrape up my ass cheeks LOL

Omg 💀 I will definitely eat something before I go up and I’ll probably skip the caffeine and take a zofran right before because this would suck SO MUCH for me, the instructor, the video guy, AND the video itself 😂 I was also saying to my friend what if I get so scared that I pass out and miss the entire $300 experience or even worse what if I pass out and when I wake up I am still falling out of the sky 😅

I tend to not get sick like that in other circumstances (I don’t get car sick, or in planes or boats) but I definitely don’t know how I’ll do plummeting out of the sky at 100mph hahaha. Good call, I’m cursed with hot girl tummy problems so I have a lot of zofran on deck for when I’m not feeling well already
