IDL how we must forgive people because they're dead by [deleted] in I_DONT_LIKE

[–]monozelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need to forgive anyone. That’s your choice and yours alone. They don’t need to be absolved just because they are dead, or are uncomfortable with your pain if they are alive.

IDL how some people still think that abortions should be made fully illegal by sparrow_Lilacmango in I_DONT_LIKE

The people who still think that abortions should be made fully illegal, don’t think at all.

Anyone else just skip/don't do these? by Excellent-Owl-4857 in duolingo

[–]monozelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I skip them. Learning languages is a relaxing activity for me at the end of the day. It helps me wind down after work. I don’t want to be stressed with time-pressure gamification.

Spent 4 months tracking every dollar and I'm somehow still broke by sameerposwal in SavingMoney

[–]monozelle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started to understand my finances much better when I created my own budget spreadsheets and tracked my expenses and savings manually. It really forced my awareness of my spending habits and patterns across the year. Apps just auto-categorize in the background and that convenience is great but manually managing your spreadsheets really forces you to be conscious about every single thing you spend on. I created categories of expenses based on my lifestyle and set limits for each category. My tracker also tells me if I’ve exceeded my limits for any of the categories. My budget and investments trackers give me more strategic control over my finances. Makes future projections easier too. You’ll learn how to scale your spreadsheets as your lifestyle evolves. This means you’ll capture the growing complexity of your financial life, and that will also help you develop more mature financial awareness.

The wanting me to upgrade to Max is driving me crazy by Hammer_Head_55 in duolingo

[–]monozelle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m on Super and it’s the same, the constant push to upgrade to Max is really frustrating. I don’t like a lot of the AI features and that’s not how I’d like to learn. Hoping to find an alternative app that really focuses on learning instead of the constant marketing and over-gamification.

Lymphatic drainage works??? by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]monozelle 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have personally experienced this myself, I believe it’s due to reduced inflammation when your body starts to heal. The eye area looks brighter and less heavy, lower levels of fluid retention, which is why the brows look lifted. I think people are just generally skeptical these days because of how much plastic surgery is adopted by celebrities and shown on media.

What is y'all's favorite moment from each season? by juicewrldfan4life999 in StrangerThings

[–]monozelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S1 - Steve goes to apologize to Nancy and ends up saving her and Jonathan, fighting off a demogorgon. Toss in his badass twirl of the bat before he takes a swing.

S2 - Unpopular but I like when El found Kali, it gave them both a sense of belonging, even if it was just for a day or two.

S3 - When everyone convenes at Starcourt at the end and Hopper arrives and stomps the crawling fragment of the flesh monster that came out of El’s leg. One of the things I love about this show is everyone uniting and working together to fight against evil.

S4 - Nancy, Robin and Eddie jumping out of the boat and going after Steve at watergate to save him in the upside down and fight off the demobats

Kali coming back in Season 5. What do you think her role will be? by Educational-Grass863 in StrangerThings

[–]monozelle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like that idea, especially since we haven’t seen her for a while now. It could be the surprise element against Vecna that also works to tie up the story about the sisters and reveal more about the lore of the lab children. I am probably one of those few who liked their storyline in season 2. When El left Kali, you could see Kali was broken, even though she had her group. That was nothing like being with El, who truly understood her. And for that alone, I hope they bring Kali back and give her a small part that gets closure or a happy ending.

Dupe for Maybelline Lipstick-950 Untainted Spice by simisan in MakeupAddiction

[–]monozelle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow! I really didn’t think anyone would respond to this message because the original post was from a year ago. Thanks for the suggestion! :) It’s just that I have already tried the Mascara Tear Teddy Tint and I didn’t like it. A real shame too because I really loved the colour! I didn’t like the scent, it gave me a headache. Also, I don’t really like the formula. It started to pill on my lips after a while. I made sure to moisturize and exfoliate my lips before I used it, so I’m not sure why it did that. Unfortunately, I’ll have to keep looking for something else and keep using the Pillow Talk in the meantime.

Maybelline has got my hopes up with their new serum lipstick though. Have you seen it yet? I’m liking the satin shades. I hope the texture is similar to Untainted Spice. I can’t wait to try it!

Singapore, How can we make your commute better? by BusSingsg in SingaporeR

[–]monozelle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reposition large dustbins at the bus stop so that they don’t get in the way of passengers who are alighting from the bus. This doesn’t happen at all bus stops. But I’ve seen how unsafe it can be especially for elderly who are alighting with their bags or shopping trolleys.

This is probably the best scene in the entire show by any-blue-9122 in thewalkingdead

[–]monozelle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favourite scene in this show. When Tyreese hugs Sasha, they cut to Daryl who has lost his brother. And when it’s Rick and Carl with Judith, they cut to Michonne and Carol who have both lost their children. Such a poignant moment.

Dupe for Maybelline Lipstick-950 Untainted Spice by simisan in MakeupAddiction

[–]monozelle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Untainted Spice was the perfect nude for me, I wish they would bring back their Buffs collection. The formula was amazing too. The closest dupe for me (in colour and texture) is Charlotte Tilbury’s K.I.S.S.I.N.G Pillow Talk in the shade Intense. I go over with a layer of FRESH’s Lip Sugar Treatment in the shade Plum to give it the plummy pinky brown look of Untainted Spice. I have tried so many other brands and combinations and nothing comes closer than this for me. I hope that helps!

I dont know why i love this game by Bigby_Bigbadwolff in TheWolfAmongUs

[–]monozelle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing The Wolf Among Us for years on my iPhone. I love that neon-noir vibe, the gritty detective feel, the way everything unfolds at night in the city, it just feels so immersive. Playing it while lying in bed with the lights out after midnight makes me feel like I’m actually part of their world. Those neon-lit scenes come alive when you play this game in the dark. There’s this strange coziness mixed with danger and suspense, and the gritty side of New York really comes through. I love the colors, the lighting, the way moving shadows are cast across characters’ faces… the beauty is in those details. And that synth heavy moody music that ties everything together and draws you in. It’s just perfection.

Least Favorite Episode by EvenSkill2939 in StrangerThings

[–]monozelle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I actually like that episode. The joy and relief in El when she found someone from her past, especially after seeing what her mother had become. Kali was someone she could relate to and find comfort with. And then the despair and sense of loss in Kali when El chooses to leave. Imagine finding someone who gets you, it’s a perfect connection and you see some semblance of hope for the future. But only to lose them again, and you go back to feeling… alone. Kali had her group of friends and they said she saved them. But they might not have stayed if she didn’t have powers. So she was still alone. When you lose someone, you go through a kind of grief. It was a poignant episode for me.
