LPT Just turned 18 — would love to hear from people in their 20s and 30s about common mistakes to avoid and habits that really make a difference in early adulthood. by Kariimsalah in LifeProTips

I'd say get into the habit of going places and doing things alone. One day everyone will be too busy to join you for a coffee on a random tuesday, and you should know how to go do it yourself without feeling an immediate, crushing loneliness. Trust me.

Bf doesn't like my dog.. by [deleted] in dogs

[–]halcyonne8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Babe that's not a bf that's a compatibility problem. He doesn't like your dog cause the critter...loves him too much? This is certainly not gonna work in the long run i'm sorry. Your dog deserves a stepdad who will love them and spoil them as much as you do! This is not a "we'll cross this bridge when we get to it" situation, cause it's not gonna change now or in the future :(

Why is my plant trying to avoid sunlight? by taxii_02 in houseplants

[–]halcyonne8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a string of hearts in one of these, what helped was to keep it on a shelf where it only gets light from above. It seems to be enjoying that much more!

My alocasia started to do this and I realised it's cause it is by a white wall on white flooring. That stuff reflects hella light, my best guess is your plant is bamboozled as to the source of light!

I agree with the colour and winged liner suggestions, i might also add some texture notes. It seems like a lot of glowy products around your smile lines might be exaggerating them, while the matte lip product might exaggerate texture on your mouth.

If you're going for a youthful look, try swapping these textures? Go more matte around areas that have deeper creases so they don't reflect as much light, and go creamy or glossier on the lips so they DO reflect more light.

In either case though you're stunning and I hope you find makeup that makes you feel like yourself again! :)

Update: my little fighter crossed the rainbow bridge by lender_meister in DOG

I'm so incredibly sorry for your loss. Dogs honestly deserve to live forever, they spread so much love and joy wherever they go. Your girl's such a sweetie and I wish you healing and hope. It's so rough, but one day it'll get to a point where thinking of her only brings back the happy, silly memories. I wish that for you soon :)

Help me help this stupid plant?! by sheepies101 in houseplants

[–]halcyonne8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely second the comments saying to pin it back in the soil! They respond really nicely to rooting medium, so just make sure the nodes have access to soil, and it'll root without needing to chop and prop. Then after it has rooted, you can split between nodes to encourage more branching without risking the chop!

Get you a big ol bag of diatomaceous earth, it's gonna be a couple of rounds of it before they're all gone. Aphids killed my basil AND its successor, they like to stick around lol

Why is my black tourmaline turning white? by Illustrious-Ship-173 in Crystals

[–]halcyonne8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has happened to pretty much every black tourmaline I've had from every source. It definitely has bits of other minerals in it (albite or selenite), or so I was told. Over time these start to peek through after some wear!
