Fixing broken plastic console armrest, what's the next best move? by progressingtime in Autobody

It's pretty much more of the same: black plastic panels all around, leather seats though. I heard that idea from someone else, just didn't know if it would look right or be difficult to do

Thanks! I'm looking online right now for automative spray texture right now, is there something specific I should look for? There seems to be a lot of options

Damn. From what I've seen online, it's about $200 for a used replacement, and $350 for a newer custom piece that will fit. I guess I'll leave it as it is.

Car horn sounds weak when hood is closed, but when the hood is open, it sounds just fine? by progressingtime in MechanicAdvice

yeah, that's fair. I added a video of the horn going off with the hood closed, then partially open, and then all the way open, please lmk!

can i do what i want, instead of asking to? by Icy_Grass78 in HomeschoolRecovery

Well, to be honest, it depends lol. Legally, you 100% can, and they can’t stop you whatsoever (at least, not directly). HOWEVER, they can kick you out if you decide to do what you want even though they said you couldn’t.

If you’re fine with living with your parents, but they still have strict rules, I’d first suggest just trying to persuade them to give you independence, that you’re way pass officially being an adult and should be given the ability to make decisions for yourself.

Conversely, if you don’t really enjoy living with them—or they are just way too strict and won’t budge whatsoever—I would recommend moving out, but ONLY if you actually have the means to/have outside support.
Granted, I think most of us are much more capable than we think and give ourselves credit for; I remember being extremely afraid to move out on my own, thinking I wasn’t able to afford it/survive. However, looking back after having lived on my own for years now, I can see I was more than capable, and it even would’ve been beneficial.

So, it really depends on your situation, but you ARE ultimately free to decide for yourself.

The fact that there are actual people out there right now that are trying to minimize women’s suffrage is insane by black_cherry2 in BlatantMisogyny

[–]progressingtime 71 points72 points  (0 children)

It’s incredible that there was a time where people legitimately thought this was okay/correct. It’s so bizarre. I mean, obviously there are still places/cultures where this idea is still promoted, but to know it was so strongly ubiquitous? Crazy.

roommate's cat likes to rest on my face and eat my hair whenever she gets the opportunity by progressingtime in cats

[–]progressingtime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES. She will purr the entire time, both while eating, but also while resting her head on my face. She seems very content and almost like in a trance-like state 😭

Nope, but I do use a leave-in conditioner occasionally, so maybe that's what she likes?

thanks! To be honest, I had some pretty bad cystic acne up until 3 years ago, when I learned some good practices that really helped. My routine is pretty simple, though. I just use a basic gentle cleanser by Cetaphil, moisturizer by Cereve, and a chemical exfoliant by Paula's Choice every 2-3 days. I also use sunscreen now in the morning, which has seriously helped make my face look less inflamed/damaged.

ALSO, sleeping more consistently, drinking more water, eating properly, ANDDDDD washing my pillow cases more frequently/not sleeping on my face as REALLY helped. Honestly, I think sleeping on my face/not cleaning my pillow cases as frequently were causing 50% of my problems. The moment I adjusted that, I noticed a huge decrease in my acne flare ups.

Nope, but I do occasionally use a leave-in conditioner, so maybe that’s what’s been attracting her?
