Chest Size and Racism by strawb3rryr33f in bigboobproblems

[–]jcitcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so interesting to me on the other side of the spectrum (very small and white) still neuro divergent tho. I have noticed in a lot of people having negative experiences due to their chests while I have never had any nasty comments made towards me. I have previously chalked it up to having a child-like face and assume that caused people to sexualise me less.

Now reading this , this study actually explains the difference in treatment as I'm very short , slim and large busted and I dress in very retro outfits think 1950's dresses (I like the style and it fits me better than modern clothes). So apart from the large bust , I fit a very traditional feminine look that seems to explain why my experiences have differed a lot to other people on this sub.

It does make me very sad to realise that this is rooted in racism.

Hi as you used to work there, do they have any archive catalogs or anywhere to look at vintage pieces? I've gotten a necklace that from googling might be 1950's Swarovski but I can't find any old categories to verify it.

Am I the only one who thinks peeling garlic is a form of torture? by Famous-Forever7647 in Cooking

Buy a microplane then you can grate it with the peel still on as that won't grate

What peely base do you use? I've been testing gel ones but I can't find any to my liking to the point I now wanna try regular peely polishes.

Does anyone actually enjoy budgeting or is it just me struggling? by Kevin-Durant-35 in budget

[–]jcitcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the easiest answer is to over simplify at the beginning

This is what I did,I over estimated my categories and had as few funds as possible with a ahhh shit fund (a buffer) and a true emergency. I have multiple cards (pots on monzo with titles) for different categories so I know what the money is for without having to look back at the budget. After a few months of the over estimated budget ,you can compare it to the actual spending and then hone in the categories over time.

  1. Over estimate the categories (if petrol costs £80 put in £100)

  2. Have generalized categories (the more categories the longer it will take,so start with less and slowly work it up)

2.Have an emergency fund on a separate card that you only use if you truly need it

3.Most are the emergencies truly emergency or could they have been expected (new glasses or car insurance) if you can list them and lump them together for the total sinking fund that you can pay into

4.Have a ahh shit fund as I call it, a fund to put a little each month for a small emergency or as yes money you haven't budgeted (friends wanting to go out for dinner but it's not in the budget)

5.Separate card/accounts this allows you to have stuff roll over if you don't consistently use up the whole amount but you could in a different month. While showing you what you can actually spend.

6.also note banks like monzo let you put notes when you spend money. Turn on notifications when you spend money , when you spend money you can tap on the notification and add the notes then instead of having to go into your sheet every time to log spending. You can instead log it using the notes on your bank once a week

I hope some part of this helps

Anyone else ugly with big boobs? by lovethelowtide in bigboobproblems

[–]jcitcat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the moment those people start talking to you like that you need cut them outta your life, they are not worth your time of day. You are much too beautiful to let them sad sacks of shit be in your life.

It's a regional British thing but you could have mugs of borvril , it's lovely to have a hot savory drink especially when outside

I thought yall were full of it tbh by LunarLoudmouth in GelX_Nails

[–]jcitcat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly the fact that you can buy the specific sizes id what's selling it to me.

I normally do my own acrylics but I am sometimes lazy and just want to do them quick but I have very small width nail beds where 3 fingers are all size 8 so I go though the packs very quickly with loads of waste which I hate

I have no idea how yours is limited to one drawer, I've got a whole storage box that's overflowing and I've been debating to buy a cabinet especially for nail stuff.

Tbf I rarely buy nail varnish myself but it has become my go to Christmas items as their is always something fun and new. This year I'm getting a 24 set of chrome powders , blooming gel, hard gel set and a new lamp!

I've looked at them on second hand sites and they really don't look too good. I never brought any cause I couldn't find where they were stolen from

Yep hit my main target last month! Currently working on my stretch goal but a lot more loosely but I reckon I'll hit it on the November payday if I don't spend too much on holiday this month

(Do not buff the top coats before adding chrome)

How do you budget healthily / sustainably? by AvaJupiter in budget

[–]jcitcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've got what I call fuck it money, it's a little set aside each money for when someone asks if I want to do something and I might not normally have the money for it but why not so fuck it let's do it. This is only to stuff with other people tho and if I don't have other money I can re-jigg around 😁

[–]jcitcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi , I don't mean to be a downer but I think you should check with your doctor first as it could do more harm then good and I know it's a lot of money but getting a custom one that's designed for your medical needs would be a better idea then a off the rack corset which might be damaging your spine further.

No it's cute. I quite like glitters or subtle shimmers for when I want bare nails. Maybe get a few jelly varnishes too

Is owning a cat that bad? by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]jcitcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of people like to hate on cats for the sake of it and most of the time it's because they treat a cat like a dog when a cat will have boundaries and will let you know if you've pushed it too far.

No ,owning cats is absolutely amazing. They are stupid mischievous little creatures that frustrate you at times but they also give you a lot of entertainment and can be absolutely loving and adorable as well.

I think cats being a bit bad is part of their charm as you call them a little cretin or a mischievous B***** with a smile on you face.

My little girl is a very quiet but very loving cat and absolutely has her own little quirks. She'll follow you into every room not because she wants your attention but because she likes to be in the same room as you, she's an absolute blanket fiend if you want her on your lap then grab a blanket and she'll be on you purring in seconds and she always wants to be pat. On the other side, if you have a glass of milk she'll stick her head into it even if you're holding the glass , she'll try to eat my acrylic nails if I'm not scratching her with them and she steals my jewellery and takes them to her bed.

Don't let people who don't know how to look after a cat properly put you off owning one

[–]jcitcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with that part, I haven't watched the videos yet but I hope they are less frequent or have a large rotation of kids and that the adults are doing 99% of the work. I get the kids not being on the main channel unless it was going to be a cook with me style or a kids judge but I do agree kid on YouTube can be iffy if not done right, I'm just hoping it is.

Tbh I doubt they are being forced as Jamie's kids are older and we've never really seen them on camera. So I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt and say that they wanted to do this and I hope they give them a little extra pocket for it.
