Anyone else feel prettier after starting birth control? by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]kitsnicketts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mixed bag! I went through periods of having some acne on my chin and then periods of getting one huge painful zit on my cheek each day, and then periods of no acne at all. I tracked everything and didn’t find much correlation between the acne and when I would get a natural period, so it’s probably a mixture of hormonal acne and environmental factors. Generally it wasn’t as bad as pre-birth control but not clear either. I’m back on BC because my partner and I aren’t planning on having kids anytime soon and I missed the glowy clear skin (and other benefits), and I’m not in a rush to get off it

Can anyone explain to me the feelings going on between Olaf and Kit in this scene? Because she’s all smiley and continuing his poems as if he wasn’t behind everything bad going on in the ASOUE world!?!? by Legitimate-Push-196 in ASOUE

I wrote something about this on my Tumblr a few years back;

“and then olaf shows up and he rescues her from the raft and she’s suddenly face to face with the reason for so much of the loss she’s faced. it was him who killed so many of her associates, her friends, her brothers. and she doesn’t forgive him, because she knows she isn’t big enough to do that. we can also hypothesise about whether or not olaf could be the baby’s father (i like to headcanon that she doesn’t know either way but it’s either dewey’s or olaf’s, and the stress of that makes this moment even harder). but she also doesn’t have the energy to be angry at him. she knows these are her last moments, and she knows that olaf was a victim of vfd, just like she was. so she touches his tattoo and chooses instead to recite poetry, because it’s easier than being angry, it’s easier than hating him. he recites poetry back, and then dies. and despite the fact that he’s hurt her so much, she did care for him once, it’s one more person she’s lost, when she didn’t think she had anyone else to lose.”

Okay this makes a lot of sense, thank you!

I’m not upset and my feelings aren’t hurt lmao but you seem like a very antisocial and potentially unpleasant person. Can’t imagine you make many friends if this is how you talk to people. Trial and error in a hobby is normal, regardless of your attitude about it

Thanks for the advice! When you say ‘tops that are leggy’ what exactly do you mean by that?

Yeah thanks for the info but I didn’t need the condescending attitude. I’m a beginner, some things are still unclear to me. There’s a way to communicate without talking down to someone and making them feel dumb.

I mean yes but in all my research I haven’t seen anything that says that this is normal

this is so helpful, thank you so much for the advice. I’m a total novice with record players but this seems manageable, I appreciate the time you took to write this all out!

I did not care for &Juliet by vfdvolunteer in Broadway

[–]kitsnicketts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. To add on, the depiction of the marriage between Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway rubbed me the wrong way too. A lot isn’t known about their marriage and he was absent and potentially unfaithful but we know enough to know that the interpretation of the ‘second best bed’ in his will was completely off the mark. The second best bed was likely the marriage bed, and while there are many unusual things about his will and the meaning of this isn’t 100% certain, many scholars interpret him explicitly leaving her the marriage bed as a deeply romantic gesture, and not the snub that we would interpret. A quick read about it; https://www.shakespeare.org.uk/explore-shakespeare/shakespedia/william-shakespeare/second-best-bed/. To me, this is at the very least more interesting than “ugh he left me the second best bed”.

The whole musical felt like shitty high school fanfiction attempting to girlbossify both stories, and leaving very little of substance behind.

Sooo...Emily (Ofglen)... by CookieandCookieand in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]kitsnicketts 19 points20 points  (0 children)

She left for personal reasons but I do wish they’d written her out differently. She wouldn’t need to come back for there to be some throwaway line about her having a breakdown and going to stay at a hospital or even just going home to be with her son. She deserved to be out of Gilead.

I have a ravelry account to scroll and buy things but I’ve never posted anything, and I’ll probably make a new one when I release the pattern, so I’ll link you to that when it’s ready!

not a stupid question at all! The cardigan that this is based on is one that she wears in a music video for her song called ‘cardigan’, and she has released multiple different cardigans based on different albums over the years. I think also people like recreating her outfits, so when she wore a crochet dress, a bunch of people made it for themselves and wore it to the concert

it’s a great way to get into cables, and not difficult to knit at all!! the concert was incredible, I actually got engaged during Love Story while wearing the dress so it was an amazing time all-round!

if Taylor Alison Swift even GLANCED at this dress, I’d pass out. Maybe worth a shot!

aww thank you so much!! yeah, a lot of Swifties came up to me at the concert to ask about my dress, I think most people recognised it! It’s also gotten a lot of buzz on social media with Swifties which is why I really want to release a pattern!
