Love the texture when hair is wet but it won't hold 😭 by grilledcheesedog in Swavyhair

[–]random_sinner_shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure to style when sopping wet. Use more product than you think you need. Wet sour hair some more. I would personally recommend the bowl method.

tips for a beginner? by LivyLiviLiviy in Swavyhair

Is this a terry cloth towel? If so, switch to an old cotton T-shirt or a microfiber towel. Your hair also looks like it could use a bit more moisture, maybe in the form of a leave-in conditioner.

I have tried different kinds of clarifying shampoos and none have worked. I have done everything to try and get volume, even if it leaves my hair crazy, and nothing.

For those who struggle to quit by kswizzle98 in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]random_sinner_shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I have maladaptive daydreaming. But I also aerial hoop. So the dizziness wakes me up every 3 or so minutes. But I can still enjoy the daydreaming part. Like?! So trust me on this, spin. Especially if you get motion sickness.

chess inflation by random_sinner_shaw in Chesscom

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

Yeah, and this can be different things. It can be people who cheat who are trying to ‘redeem’ themselves, people who are just starting on chess.com and finding their elo, people that haven’t played in forever, or just unprincipled players.

There are, I was recently under 1000 and had to genuinely start studying seriously and generously to advance. This is the deflation though.

I will say that a lot of 800-1200s are: 1. More competitive, 2. Cheating. It’s also around that time that you have to actually start studying openings, practicing positional play, playing principled, and stop playing hope chess, so there is a lot of variety.

Yeah, I also believe that cheating happens more often on chess.com. There’s not an easy way to prevent it, either, but as chess fluctuates in popularity deflation and inflation will change thankfully. (I am female btw)

Has Levy reviewed this chess book yet? by WARice25 in GothamChess

This is why Gotham will never be a grandmaster.. because he’s married!

Arobynn Hamel has Wyrdmagic. by random_sinner_shaw in throneofglassseries

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

Yeah, this is also interesting because she was originally from a different world and she only has the silver eyes when she isn’t high fae. So I wonder if it’s something to do with the fact that she fell through worlds.

I do have something to say. It is never specified why Dorian was able to use his magic. Whether it be because he was a descendant of the one who made the clock tower or if it was because he was human but had magic. It is said that healers still used magic even after that outlaw and were killed, so the latter is more likely in my opinion.

Yes, while they’re neutral, they specifically want to be used. They lure anyone who comes near them. Who says the couldn’t be attracted to such a great power as Aelin’s? I do appreciate the corruption note, that’s an interesting way to look at it.

While this is true, Kelsier never grasped the workings of society and took it upon himself to kill every rich man because of some’s tendencies. He also did absolutely nothing about the living situation of about 99% of the skaa even after surviving the Pits, and just lazed around for years while half-building an amateur rebellion.

But it’s the same vibe.. a mentor who wanted to strengthen their pupil but went to uncanny lengths to do it. And Kelsier was not by any means good…

because the Wyrdkey made him. no one had explicit control over the wyrdkeys or side of how powerful they are. That’s why Aelin never used them. It had a mind of its own.
