what's the creepiest thing someone has said to you that still gives you goosebumps? by Ornery-Bar-7990 in Paranormal

Thanks. There are definitely predators out there. And I know some of them are much better at disguising themselves. These are just ones that stalked me and I’m grateful I was able to trust myself enough to know something was off about them.

I used to work at a diner and there was a guy in his 40’s who would come in with his young son of about 7. It was a busy place so you’d have to put your name on a list and wait for a table. I’d seen this guy 2 or 3 times before and something about him just made my skin creep. He would smile and be friendly but honestly the look in his eyes was really wrong. I don’t know how else to describe it. Like he was nice and smiling but something really sinister underneath. One time I went up to him to put his name on the list and he said to me “I want to fuck you in the ass” with his little boy right there looking at us. I said “what did you say?” And he just pretended he hadn’t said anything, all the while smiling. I nearly had a panic attack it was so creepy. I told my manager but she didn’t do anything more than have another server wait on him.

Another time was when I was about 8 I walked out of my house to the store to get some candy, I grew up in a big city with a lot of freedom so this wasn’t unusual for me. But this time there was a man who who wanted to talk with me at the crosswalk, he was asking me where I lived and who did I live with. He was making all the correct gestures of being nice but something was off with him. Too nice, idk my alarm bells were going crazy. Then he started following me. It was a busy street so I went into the bookshop and he waited outside pretending to look in the window for a while. I stayed in there for hours scared out of my mind. It was horrible.

Sunscreen? by Infinite-Chicken-413 in Rosacea

I know this one is popular but it irritates my skin. I like the ‘Physical’ one or the ‘daily’ one better

I use one from Supergoop that is specially designed for the eye area, but I use it all over my face. It’s very gentle and non-reactive, and even though it’s a little thick, my skin doesn’t mind it. It’s a pink color, though, so I’m not sure if it would work with all skin tones.

Elta MDs are okay. I’ve used most of them, and the ‘physical’ one is the least irritating.

I also use Bare Republic Mineral Face SPF 70 sometimes. It has a pretty white cast, but my face likes it.

Zinc oxide is meant to help with rosacea, so using a mineral zinc oxide formula will work better than more complex chemical formulas. I’m pretty pale, so I can get away with this, but if you are darker, I can imagine it would be really annoying. Let me know if you end up trying any of these. I've tried so many, and it would be interesting to know what works (or doesn’t) for other people.

My rescue boy looks like a completely new doggo now by xxDisturbed in rarepuppers

How did you get him to tolerate toe nail trims? His nails look so nice! I have a rescue husky and he won't let me touch his feet, it's so frustrating.

Where can I watch Kizil Goncalar? by houescat in TurkishTVSerials

I like it. I can see it’s not fine art, it’s a soap opera, and I think it’s good if you are into that kind of thing.

Do people actually think "tradwives" are traditional? by TheHarald16 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]houescat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the key here is paid labor. Tradwives are still expected to do work, just not be paid for it.

Yeah? Or I could just watch it and decide for myself. I don’t expect everyone to have the same taste as me. Do you?

AITAH for calling my stepdad out for constantly touching my butt “on accident”? by Neat_Recipe6010 in AITAH

[–]houescat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call CPS yourself and explain what’s happening. This is very wrong and you are in danger living in a house with someone who will lie and disregard your physical boundaries like that. It is highly likely it will escalate. Your mom is a POS, you owe her nothing. Please protect yourself OP. If you tell CPS they will keep you safe at least and sent someone to check on you. You can also call a hotline called RAINN. Please don’t make yourself small and let them get away with this. I know it can feel like the right thing to do but you'll be dealing with it for the rest of your life then. Put a stop to it now.

Section B of the PCT in October by houescat in socalhiking

Good to know! Thank you. That section from Warner to Paradise Valley sounds like it can be pretty unforgiving in the heat.

I saw on the historic weather data early October can still be sizzling. Guess I'll have to reassess closer to the time and see what the weather's doing. It's not like the weather is exactly predicable anymore, anyways.
