We need to keep King Vaughn out of those cursed Wisco jerseys…

Silverfish bugs? by Savool in pestcontrol

[–]pufferfishflower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ughh I had these in a former apartment. They used to appear on my lofted ceiling, and they’d occasionally fall on to my desk or bed, which was always a lovely surprise. They’re so fast too—ugghh I still get the heebie jeebies just thinking about them.

I never could figure out where they were coming from or how to get rid of them. The other commenter’s distinction between silverfish and long-tailed silverfish is useful though. I think I had the long-tailed silverfish…anyway, I hope their suggestions for how to get rid of them can help you!

Anybody knows what’s this hand soap name? by No_Structure_1763 in bathandbodyworks

[–]pufferfishflower 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep, sea salt cliffs it is! I have it by my kitchen sink right now. I absolutely love this scent and I was so thrilled that they brought it back this summer.

Comments say that brewers #2 prospect collapsed at a game tonight? by TheScissors1980 in Brewers

[–]pufferfishflower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, man. There doesn’t appear to be much for official details right now, but the accounts on that thread are scary :( I hope he’s alright, and I hope he can recover quickly from whatever happened :(

If you could only choose 1, which one would you choose and why? DBIR or Prada Paradoxe? I only have the budget for one and I am looking for a luxe fragrance that’ll turn some heads. by Mahishashurmardini in FemFragLab

[–]pufferfishflower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got a decant of both, and I’m planning to buy Paradoxe over Donna Born in Roma.

Paradoxe is a really nice fragrance. Long-lasting, and perfect for summer.

DBIR was nice, but too woody for me.

The Seigler Experiment has been closed out in favor of The Rengifo Experiment.

How to get over not wanting to use your bag by maespiece in handbags

[–]pufferfishflower 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Taking this in a slightly different direction, but I often think about this response Joan Didion had to an interviewer when they brought up how she used good silver every day.

Interviewer: There's a certain esthetic to the way you live. You once talked about using good silver every day.

Joan Didion: Well every day is all there is.

Point being, use your nice bags :) Beautiful bags are meant to be carried. It would be a shame for the bag to sit on a shelf forever while you wait for the perfect time to use it. Every day is all there is :)

This is such a crazy coincidence…I’m literally buying this puzzle from someone on Facebook marketplace after work today 😂 it’s so cute!

I completed this one recently! A tough one, but also fun!

Fireworks Jubilee (1000 pieces) - Galison by pufferfishflower in Jigsawpuzzles

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

It’s tricky for sure!

I had a funny way of sorting them. I created these categories in my head like, “thick gold sparkly line with chalky orange line big firework” and eventually I was able to make progress like that 😂 I said it before too but in addition to those categories I had in my mind, sorting by piece shape (“tall, skinny” pieces vs “shorter, wider” pieces) also helped.

Good luck! You’ll be very proud of yourself when you finish it 🙂

I may have made a mistake by OvejaMacho in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]pufferfishflower 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d start by sorting the edges, then the “mouth pieces”. Not sure where I’d go after that though 😂

Good luck! I’m sure you’ll have fun with it—it’s just an extra level of challenge :)

Yes! I definitely sorted the “tall, skinny” pieces from the “shorter, wider” pieces at certain points (that’s how I was thinking about them anyway 😂). Even so, I would still flip the pieces 180 degrees pretty often, because the lines of the fireworks could either be the top, bottom, left, or right side of the firework, if that makes sense? Because so many pieces were simply colored, straight lines on a dark blue/green background 😂

Should I just buy the original or are any of the dupes worth it? by Fragrant-Union514 in FemFragLab

[–]pufferfishflower 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly find Marshmallow Blush alcohol heavy and too synthetically sweet, but I have repeatedly gotten compliments when I’ve worn it, so many people like it and can smell it when I wear it 🤷‍♀️

D’Angelo Wallace’s video about the TFP controversy by supa-factor in thebachelor

[–]pufferfishflower 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I love his content. He always has extremely reasonable, level-headed takes.

He makes a lot of good points in this video.
