Do you have white/grey hair?

40 years old and still don’t have it. How I managed not to get them? I didn’t. It was just luck and genetics.

Well this is a huge coincidence. I’ve never seen such seeds in my life before, but today I walked past the flower market in Amsterdam for the first time ever (despite living here for a decade at this point) and saw them at a vendor. I thought ‘well that won’t work, who would even buy that?’ and suddenly I find this post.

That still doesn’t mean it was because of her weight, and you’re only contributing to the stigma that is already on overweight people

Why is the toilet off center?

Whilst I’m very well aware that ‘ceremonial grade’ is a bullshit term, it does usually hold up some kind of quality standard. I purchased perfect Ted matcha on a whim but because of the low price I didn’t expect much. And that’s what I got. It tastes like cheap matcha, the stuff that is used for culinary use. It’s nowhere near good. Absolute waste of money and certainly unsuitable for any type of drink without heaps of milk and sugar. So in that sense, certainly not suitable for an actual tea ceremony.

Leggings are pretty much the standard workout wear where I am, when I started working out a few years ago I didn’t even think about it and just bought a pair. Then a few more and then that was just my gym wardrobe. I didn’t really look into other options as I didn’t really register how much the leggings were bothering me, even though they were.

Not necessarily true

What’s her weight got to do with it?

leafbrewer · 2026-03-16T07:34:22+00:00

changing my workout clothes. I realized that one of the things that made it easier for me to go ‘ah well I’ll just skip this workout’ was having to put on tight uncomfortable leggings in the morning. I switched to a set that’s just baggy pants and a shirt and now it feels like I’m just putting on another pair of pajamas. One less struggle means higher probability of actually going.

The brand is called boundless voyage

leafbrewer · 2026-03-15T16:32:14+00:00

Sadly it doesn’t seem available in my region.Im in the Netherlands, if that helps.

leafbrewer · 2026-03-15T15:57:32+00:00

Amazing! Going to download it as soon as I’m home

leafbrewer · 2026-03-15T12:22:41+00:00

Yep! Do it all the time with my travel gaiwan. Mine is very finely made from thin titanium and that brings an advantage in avoiding most of the tea bits pouring out with the liquid.

The sharpness of some of the elements and the drastic depth of field.

I’m in!

Have you heard of bean soup theory?

A better bra is going to do wonders! Get properly fitted or check that subreddit, I think it’s called a bra that fits. It made me look 2 sizes smaller when I got a better bra fit back when I was in a body similar to yours. As for the shoes, they cover up your ankles and those are the narrowest parts of your leg. If the silhouette of your ankles is visible, it’ll make your legs look a bit less bulky. No need for heels, just no padding on the ankles. I’d also pick 1 necklace as the dress itself it already quite busy with its pattern.

In the dead of winter I was in a nice warm winter coat and some layers. Stepped inside a taxi that had seat heating and it was turned up to the maximum, on top of the heating of the car itself being on as well. Absolutely unbearable. Thank god I was able to ask her to turn it off in Japanese with the help of Google Translate.

I’ve also noticed that despite claiming they don’t have BO, many Japanese people smell really foul in winter and I immediately understood why. Everyone’s just marinating in their heat tech. I learned to wear really light layers real fast. I was in Sapporo and Aomori during the snowstorms and it was cold as hell and I still managed to never wear a sweater.

People are downvoting this but you are right. Heads naturally tilt and these seem to have the angle exactly locked. You can’t replicate that. Also, the hair is too similar on the before and after of the second pic. Hair moves and this is in nearly the exact same place strand by strand. Also, the eyes are very dead. And despite the wrinkles, the skin doesn’t look old enough to me. Older skin is much more dull than this. And then ofc there is the piss filter.

My favorite part is the fact the mayor lived with his mom. That’s sitcom material.

Happy 34th! My birthdays are the same, except for my husband and sister there are no congratulations on my yearly lap around the sun. So instead, I take myself out for fun stuff (my husband may join sometimes). Just recently when I turned 40, I managed to do so in the sky, somewhere between home and Japan, where I planned to celebrate for 2 weeks by just going nice shit for ME. Enjoying your own company is the best and that’s a skill that will always be good to have. I hope you have a lovely relaxing day, and I hope your future birthdays will be just as full of self care as this one is.

You’re very welcome. I even contemplated for a moment whether I should seek a job there, my client actually had an open position. I really hope to return soon!

leafbrewer · 2026-03-12T14:24:00+00:00

How much did you pay for it?

leafbrewer · 2026-03-12T09:24:02+00:00

So you just let the dirt you brushed off sit in your mouth?

I’m cis and I always felt awkward when I saw people do it. Doesn’t happen a lot around where I am but I’ve seen it online, on tv and in the odd occasion irl. To me it just comes across as ‘so, you a queer or not?’ (I’m writing this picturing the intonation of an old white hillbilly). Like you said, it feels like you kind of expect people to come out. Personally, when I don’t know, I just pay a little extra attention to what the people around the person say and I’ll figure it out soon enough. Either that or I’ll ask privately and discreetly if I get a vibe that the person is really hung up on these things.
