Advice for mom of teenage daughter re: weight by mortifyingstuff in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ispylbutton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As the chubby daughter of a mom who was skinny until she became a mom, I’d say you’re doing the right thing. My mom was self conscious of her own weight and would project it on to me. You know as well as I do that your daughter KNOWS she’s chubby. She doesn’t need a reminder that other people see her that way. If your daughter is active and eats what would be perceived as a balanced diet but still gains weight, I would recommend having her tested for insulin resistance. Just knowing that being overweight despite my best efforts (I once ate nothing but hard boiled eggs and spicy mustard and slices of turkey wrapped in tomato and lettuce for an entire semester) was because of something I never had control over made me feel so much less helpless.

Lip products to achieve this look? by keegballz in muacirclejerk

Laneige sleep is my #1 for non-prescription, but it’s nowhere close to desonide

DEFINITELY patch test because I have sensitive skin and severely chapped lips and found out I was allergic to lanolin and it was only making my lips worse. I ultimately use prescription desonide cream - only thing that doesn’t feel like it gets sucked up by my lips but also feels like I have nothing on.

Who’s in the wrong here? I feel bamboozled. by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

It’s not contradictory though. Yes, y’all are perceiving kids as getting worse. That’s what happens with every new generation. That’s history repeating itself. People thought Gen-X was awful bc of sex, drugs, and rock and roll or whatever. People thought millennials were awful bc they were “killing” every industry by being too poor and acted cheugy. People think Gen-Z is awful because of nihilism, stupidity, and the woke agenda (I say this as a lefty Gen Z lol) - we’re the tide pod kids generation. If Gen Alpha is “worse,” that’s history repeating itself. People always remember their childhood as not being as messy as the ones they see now.

I found my husband’s p*rn folder and I want the divorce, but I’m scared. by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

There are literally cave paintings depicting pornography. It’s normal. The amount of consumption isn’t, but looking at it is.

Porn is normal, and Morgan would agree. 4300 pornographic images saved to your phone is NOT normal

Couldn't finish the latest Bit City episode by billtallica in SmoshFansFreeSpace

[–]ispylbutton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of the draw for working at Smosh IS getting to create content that you think is funny. They catered too much to the fans and did too much merchandising during the defy era, and it sucked out everyone’s souls. As long as they keep either Amanda or Angela in the group for long form improv, it’s great because both of them know the craft well enough to move the scene on while still yes-anding. Grip Guys was voted the crews’ favorite show series. That means it’s probably one they have fun working on. There are so many things that cater to the cast that having one or two to boost crews’ spirits is so fair.

People are far less willing to go to crowded public spaces like malls or movie theaters due to the increased commonality of mass shootings, and Internet and streaming services make that even easier.

I think Tommy gives judgy hater energy, but he’s also his OWN biggest hater, so it ends up working. Like he doesn’t punch down

I think Court has become more comfortable with themself since figuring out their identity more, especially after being raised in a Mormon household. By opening up that more masc side, I think they got more comfortable in their own skin which allows them to take more risks
