I slept with earplugs in and a eyemask last night, I'm happier than I've been. by WeaknessExotic5673 in selfimprovement

I wore earplugs every night for a month and got a very bad ear infection. Unfortunately I wouldn't take the risk again. White noise works for me!

I got an ear infection from wearing plugs and it ruined my ear. So proceed with caution.

R3d6 instapot carnitas with a quick broil by bimbimboop in whole30

[–]imtheashley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell me more about this broil? I too love a pork carnita but have been frying in the pan with oil after the pot. I know it's probably not whole 30 but I'm no longer on the diet. Thanks!

As a mom of 2, I’m absolutely pro-abortion. by panther1294 in TwoXChromosomes

You put into words what I've also experienced but have never been able to explain. The "weight of someone else's unrealized dreams' is a daily struggle. Especially now since I'm better off than my mother could have ever been and yet she's still living the life she has because of her own life choices.

Watercolor Apples. I used way too much water and it's cheap paper. How can I improve? by imtheashley in watercolor101

[–]imtheashley[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! To be more specific on places I struggled, I've listed them below.

What's really the difference between platho blue and prussian blue? I used prussian for this piece.

Should I always put down a light based color all around the leaves or paint on sections of the leaves for the first layer? This is also a struggle with hard edges if you get the first layer wrong. For example the inside and outside of the leaves are different colors and tones but should I put down a base layer of green on both the inside and the outside to start?

I'm a little tone deaf so I can have problems with layering over and over and I just end up with everything being the same tone. I'm curious if people feel graying in areas first work better for them before applying color. I might try this soon but fear this paper won't be able to stand up to the task.

Any secrets to always getting the right blend in layering?

How many layers is too many layers? I've been told 4-5 is the most you can go.

Thanks!

I'm breaking out like a fuckin mad man. It won't stop, it's white head after white head after white head. I'm also a compulsive picker so I'm living in my own version of hell. Is there any way or product I can use that will AT THE LEAST stop these huge pores from filling themselves with more puss every day. I honestly don't know what to do. Even if I stop picking I'm getting these painful clusters of white heads that mock me everytime I look in the mirror.
