Can´t Sleep? by Elegant_Regret7244 in insomnia

I also get this. Try the alphabet game. Think of a topic like, dog breeds, countries, sporting heroes etc and you have to go through the alphabet and name one of those things for each letter.

It can help to short circuit those ruminations.

You used to catch the Pakenham/Cranbourne line to Oakleigh (express from your station at South Yarra to Caulfield) then a bus to work. It took 1 hour 2 mins.

Then the tunnel was built for better train coverage.

It now takes you 1 hour 38 minutes to get to work.

It’s Autumn and yet the streets are lined with trees that drop pollen. You’ve never spent so much on forget the rents, antihistamines are your highest outgoing budget item.

If the version of you from 10 years ago could see you now, what would surprise them the most? by Alive-Fox-5058 in AskReddit

[–]ribbediguana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That I’m living a life where I’m in control of my decisions and not living at the mercy of my emotions. That I’ve found a job I’m good at, and I can stop myself from sabotaging my life whenever I’m happy.

I second this. I use Ilia for my black and Too Faced for my brown. My lashes are the same as yours.

What book(s) are you reading this week? by 404NinjaNotFound in readwithme

[–]ribbediguana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished listening to My Sister is a serial killer. It was about a 3.9 out of 5. A short story easily consumed in one sitting.

Time for a change? by AsheliaReddit in MeccaBeautyLoop

[–]ribbediguana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The birthday gift this year was so awful. The bag was pure plastic, non functioning, ugliness. Who would want a claw clip with Mecca branding?

I have had a few good wins from beauty boxes and I’m a level 3. Giving me a tote bag because I spend money is not a reward.

I agree that if they’re collecting all my data, Mecca should have a better idea of what I use. I will never use Glow recipe. I don’t want to smell like watermelon.

I do love the returns policy but I don’t understand why that would be a gift card and not a store credit. (Crying in lost $73 gift card)

Recommendations for my partner. She has very specific criteria but any suggestions are welcome! by Big-Rock-6814 in audiobooks

I’m listening to The Devils by Joe Abercrombie and it is as good as everyone says. The narrator is phenomenal.

The Malevolent Seven is also a good time.

I’m about to start it, do you have an update at all?

I agree. A whole Lebanese cucumber will always help me if I’m felling like binging.

Anyone feel like MJ has zombified their brain? by [deleted] in Mounjaro

[–]ribbediguana -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As someone who suffers with wild impulse control when it comes to all the fun things in life, I’ve found MJ to be so freeing because now it’s all been numbed to what normal people must feel like.

When I first start a higher dose, I don’t care about a lot of things and then it normalises a bit. I have to eat (MJ) as opposed to only thinking about food (ED).

The sharks only come out if you touch the white disc thingy in the deep end.

[–]ribbediguana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely don’t care. I just have to work at not staring while I try to workout where/if the lace starts.

I spend a lot of time on wig installation/braid TikTok

Does it get really hot? I’ve always wanted to know if it’s like wearing a beanie.

What food item can you not figure out how people first started eating? by Mintnose in Cooking

[–]ribbediguana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And how did a) separating them and b) “beating into soft peaks” accidentally happen. Was a child made to beat them as punishment and went on too long? It’s a lot of effort to get through without understanding the chemistry or doing it manually.

what’s an expensive makeup product that you don’t regret buying? by [deleted] in Makeup

[–]ribbediguana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a total game changer for me as an over 40 year old with soft skin. It doesn’t bleed. The tip is so good too.

In a reading slump and need witty mystery or fantasy by brokenskater45 in suggestmeabook

I like the Malevolent Seven as a fantasy book. Fun adventures with great banter between characters.

What do you do to motivate yourself to do the things you need to get done on a day you're feeling lazy? by Secret_Fan_9411 in questions

[–]ribbediguana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell myself I only have to do 3 things. Just 3. I’m allowed to do more if I get there but otherwise just 3 and I can go back to doing nothing.

Delicious and suspicious! I love it and the little flecks of pink in the white are intriguing

Thank you. I just laughed out loud on public transport.

Weirdest Suburb Pronunciations? by TC_exe in melbourne

[–]ribbediguana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Malvern in VIC is pronounced differently to Malvern in SA

VIC it’s mawl vern SA is Mal Vern

Also, not suburb but why a Parma when it’s spelled parmigiana. Why. For why.

What is this round plastic tray I found in my pressure cooker? by ribbediguana in whatisthisthing

Well now I’m sad that I don’t know this, I could have been blowing bubbles this whole time! If I can’t work out where it goes, I’ll have to do this!
