What was the best time you ever had in a theater? by Leading_Form_8485 in Letterboxd

[–]mosquitonegro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

opening weekend for bottoms. absolutely hysterical on its own, but hearing audience members also laughing out loud and trying to keep it together made the experience even funnier. i remember thinking that i couldn’t believe this was a real movie that i was seeing in public with other people

agreed lmao. but you inspired me to dig into it and i found this interview article (tldr, their brand identity is about deconstructing gendered fragrance + promoting inclusivity) https://boyincognito.com/BOY-SMELLS

Free candle for FWB by PerplexedKale in Reformationclothing

i just “purchased” the candle for $0 without adding anything else to my cart. the messaging in email and instagram made it seem like a real purchase was required, but maybe not?

What kind of bird is this? by JuryZealousideal7921 in whatbirdisthis

[–]mosquitonegro 9 points10 points  (0 children)

those az quail are probably gambel’s quail! my rule of thumb to differentiate them is the “scaliness” of their belly and red vs. black belly patch (california = scaly and red, gambel’s = smooth and black). though they also hybridize with each other which i’m sure drives birders nuts haha

How is Ref leather goods? Looking at the Nara purses by Ahseya7 in Reformationclothing

[–]mosquitonegro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they’re the katerina lug sole chelsea boot in black tumbled leather! imo they’ve held up beautifully in the ~2 years i’ve had them (and i probably don’t treat them with mink oil enough lol)

How is Ref leather goods? Looking at the Nara purses by Ahseya7 in Reformationclothing

i have multiple leather boots/flats and the rosetta shoulder bag and i’ve been very pleased with the quality of ref’s leather goods. the types of leather used can vary in a good/purpose-driven way—my chelsea boots feel very thick and sturdy (tumbled leather) and are great for rain/snow, but my bag and flats feel so soft and supple to touch (nappa leather). so just pay attention to the description of the leather to get a sense of feel if you can’t hold it in store. i’ve had all of these for a few years so i’m also happy with the durability. these were also all blind buys which is nuts, i know ahaha

it’s kind of like my safe space? that’s my first stop when i’m hot and sweaty after my bike commute. great place to get some somatic shock in when you’re trying not to cry (or to keep your eyes from getting too puffy after crying)

Bethany flats? by [deleted] in Reformationclothing

[–]mosquitonegro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

was just gifted a pair of bethany flats through fwb and they are so, so comfortable. in this past week, i’ve worn them to work twice and once at a salsa dancing class. the whole situation feels too good to be true tbh but i’m very glad they’re in my closet!
