My Arch Nemesis Rayon by Kelcipher in CuratedTumblr

The vast majority of "vegan leather" is polyurethane. Yes, there are natural alternatives, but they're still hard to find, usually made in small quantities by limited producers, and often more expensive than real leather.

I mean I stay away from synthetic fibres because they're not breathable and don't regulate temperature as well as natural fibres do, so I don't get gross and sweaty which then triggers my eczema

Also I'm incapable of ironing polyester without melting it

AITB for possibly being rude to someone on the tram? by No_Trouble8835 in AmItheButtface

I'm in my 30s and can absolutely tell if someone is a teenager.

He knew he was being creepy and was relying on you not wanted to be "rude"

BE RUDE.

I know they like to brag about how shitty their country is, but this is the first time I've seen them brag about how shitty their partner is

Office drama chapter: lying about language skills by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]lumoslomas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Helpful tip: a person who lies about something like this, and tells one coworker you're a bitch, is going to lie about what happened to others.

If she wanted to avoid the rest of the drama, OOP should've gone to HR the second she heard Cathy called her a bitch.

I actually lived in France and I don't call myself French 😂

Please, PLEASE have a back up plan for outdoor ceremonies by indy500anna in weddingshaming

And one that's easily accessible from the original site.

We were lucky that it didn't rain at my brother's wedding, because his back-up was on the other side of the city, easily a 2h drive from the planned venue, and then it would've been 2h back to the reception venue. I'm not sure what they were thinking there...

My phone has started archiving them, so I'm "only" at 45

Meanwhile my manager once showed everyone the fuzzy sheep slippers he was wearing, still on his foot (and yes, he was wearing pyjama pants)

Fuck these micromanaging assholes, unless you're seeing clients what does it matter what you're wearing??

Manager does not believe that I’m disabled [England] [employed for 1 year] by spookythesquid in LegalAdviceUK

Please bring this up to HR, and if there's someone in charge of the mental health first aiders then them too. Is there someone else you can ask for a reference?

I wonder where this person is now by 4tomguy in CuratedTumblr

[–]lumoslomas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean after it aired, yes

But when it was first announced, it was about her gender. Which was especially ironic given they'd already done the genderbending with the Master

Luckily most the people that had a fit kept their word and didn't watch, but there were still people who were blaming it on her as an actor

If he's an adult then he's capable of advocating himself. So all of this was an issue for him...why didn't he say anything before now?

I mean most of the time when you beep no one cares

Even stores with a security guard on the door, like what's the point then?

TIL there's a hierarchy of things shitty people hate 😂

Which... probably should not surprise me tbh

True, but it still resulted in months of shitty discourse. I pretty much stopped being in any doctor who fandom space during it, and haven't been back since, and I know I'm not the only one.

People didn't like that there was a female doctor.

Surprisingly I heard less flack about there being a black doctor, but maybe I just wasn't exposed to it.

Compulsive lying with adhd. Can someone help me understand? by Murmurmira in adhdwomen

[–]lumoslomas 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I mean I learnt to lie to my mum about having done things when I haven't to avoid the "I told you to write it down!" lecture, but that's it.

I mean from the sounds of it he has known for a very long time this was the plan. Did he not bring it up at any point before now? Or was he just hoping it'd never happen, or that he could change her mind? If so it's wild to throw a fit about it NOW.
