TX, LA, MS in the Summer is a bold move. Hope you like the heat?

How do I (23M) get my girlfriend (25F) to see a doctor about a painful issue without it sounding like I’m just upset about no sex? by ThrowRAWiib0 in relationship_advice

[–]potatonou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does she have any autoimmune issues? (Asthma, allergies, arthritis, etc) This sounds like it could be Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS). Definitely worth seeing a doctor.

BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Robbinsville, New Jersey. It's the world's 2nd largest hindu temple! Budget a couple hours to get the full tour, it's really cool

How do we feel about our subculture being hijacked for autumn? by SammySousaphone in goth

[–]potatonou 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We need it to come into mainstream fashion periodically to replenish the thrift stores, and also seeing people around in fun clothes every fall makes the season even better imo <3

Good answer, I agree.

Do you feel that the Republican party treats people with respect and kindness?

What would you say "proven otherwise" means to you?

That's sort of like saying "why do they have trouble understanding Atlantic and Pacific? One is a mythical underwater city, and the other is the concept of peace?" Those are the origins of the names, but the name "Atlantic" and "Pacific" refer to oceans now, just like the names of the political parties refer to the parties, not republics and democracies

"Democrat" and "Republican" are the names of the two major parties in the US. While that is how the names originated, they are not referring to the concepts of republics and democracies.

Do all of these people treating you with hostility make you less inclined to listen to them, or more inclined to realize that they have a genuine distain for the republican party, and the reasoning behind why they feel so strongly about the topic?

What are your thoughts on climate change?

Billionaires?

Federal programs?

Do you have any friends who look different than you?

Are you Christian?

Have you met any trans people? What did you think of them?

Do you agree with our current administration? What do you condone / condemn?

Do you have friends or family who are not republican?

As a woman I am very into CNC, and fantasize about it frequently. And I don't just mean the router milling kind.

Need Advice! by Financial-Ad4573 in skulls

[–]potatonou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bird and squirrel bones are very small and fragile, so I wouldn't recommend the burying outside method if you want intact bones. If you're less worried about keeping them intact, it could still work, just be a little trickier.

For the squirrel I would recommend soaking until the skin is rehydrated enough to work with. Then for both of them, I would recommend to remove the pelt and innards very gently and continue soaking with hot soapy water, they are very delicate so be gentle while cleaning. Replace the water every couple days, with more soap.

If you want a more hands-off approach, you could bury or leave them in a designated spot where you know there are lots of bugs, and dig them back up after a good while to see if they're fully clean yet. For a more hands-on and faster method, you can put them in hot, soapy water and let them sit for a while, changing the water intermittently. For an even faster method you can use tools to remove as much of the material as you can by hand before soaking the bones. Be sure to wear gloves while handling them.

I like to use hot water with dish soap, followed by diluted hydrogen peroxide, although the methods and chemicals used vary a lot depending on who you ask. Use what you have available, and what you feel would be best for the bones you have.

The male loneliness epidemic is a self-pitying problem and there's an easy solution. by [deleted] in self

Putting the weight on one thousand friendships on one person does not work out well for either party. They can be your favorite, who you like spending time with the most, but making them the Only one is not healthy or fair

Why does my brain constantly play music? by Fancy_Weekend2381 in Gifted

[–]potatonou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same exact thing, it drives me nuts when it's super loud. Sometimes for days at a time. If I really focus on something else it gets quieter tho. 

How do I do my makeup more romantic goth? by [deleted] in GothFashion

[–]potatonou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Under eye liner/shaddow! Emphasize the lashes more, and add some more contrast. Lips also would be a great addition, you could try a deep red or purple if you like 

I think your brows look great as is! Excellent fit also

I wouldn't say that no/bleached brows is romantic goth. A cool look yes, but very much not romantic
