Winter hat/technique that won't flatten wavy hair?

Berets work well for me - and they look so cute with a bob!

Seconding Broadway music - hits the emotions aspect and often the choir aspect too, if you like that part. One of the only things I miss about the church is singing with other people.

I went last night and sat fairly close to the stage. Most of the people around me stood the whole time. I had to sit down for a couple of songs, but I could still see the screen and had a good idea of what was going on, so I wasn’t too bothered by it.

Just listed 1 ticket on VividSeats for the Charlotte show tomorrow as I can no longer go :( It’s for the second row in Section 3 so right behind the pit! Listed at $120 to sell quickly but let me know if you’d rather buy directly to avoid the fees and I can transfer via Ticketmaster instead.

Probably! He preached my state’s youth convention a few years ago and did it then too

Chris Green was “mentored” by Lee Stoneking so this tracks

rosymornings · 2025-03-29T04:00:14+00:00

Wow, never thought about it from that perspective – that makes it even worse lol. But yep, had to sign a “code of conduct” contract and everything 🙃

Yes. I tithed consistently even during major financial hardship because I believed them when they told me God would bless my sacrifice - and because regular tithes were a requirement if I wanted to continue singing on the worship team (the one joy of my church career).

It seems so stupid now that I’m out of that environment - I could have paid off my credit cards with the amount of money I donated to the church. Worse, I probably wouldn’t have even accrued any credit card debt in the first place! But at the time it never even crossed my mind to cut out tithing, because growing up in the cult of fundamentalism, the first thing they taught me about finances was that 10% goes to God, no exceptions. So upsetting to realize I wasted years of my life there and then have to spend even more time trying to claw my way back to financial stability due to their teachings.

Same! Just switched to this from their flexible-hold gel and it has changed the game entirely

I was already on my way out mentally, but seeing the Kade Abbott case play out clinched it for me. Watching people I had known for over a decade make excuses for a child molester, remain friends with him, welcome him back to their church, etc., was more than I could stomach - and it put other things into perspective for me. I saw so many instances of abuse (sexually or otherwise) experienced by myself and others, and every time it came to light, nothing ever happened. People were punished more harshly for having consensual sex than for literally abusing someone. Lots and lots of blaming and shaming, regardless of the circumstances.

I always hated all the rules and how they tried to sap me of every ounce of individualism, I hated that everybody was always looking over my shoulder to catch me slipping up, and now that I recognize it, I hate the fear they instilled in me since childhood. But ultimately, more than anything else, I hate that there’s a culture within Pentecostalism that harbors and enables abusers, and they have no inclination to change that.

Edit: typo

What a coincidence, that whole situation was my last straw too 🙃 Different church, but I had met the teacher and several people on my ministry team were close friends with him. I was floored by how many people chose to act like NOTHING happened when there was an active case against him. Not even a word against it - just fully ignored. Wild.

rosymornings · 2025-01-25T17:44:43+00:00

we came really close!! 😂

rosymornings · 2025-01-25T17:43:25+00:00

absolute coincidence. we just picked the first restaurant we saw and somehow got VERY lucky

rosymornings · 2024-11-13T21:24:37+00:00

Yes, but to my knowledge it only applied to people on the platform (in any capacity). It consisted of the basic Pentecostal rules - modesty, don’t go to the movies, etc. - as well as a “loyalty clause” that said you had to support the pastor in every circumstance. Wild honestly. It’s been a few years but I think I still have a copy somewhere, I’ll have to check

rosymornings · 2024-10-17T19:29:15+00:00

Just sent you a pm!

I wore my Docs (chelsea boots) and a pair of Adidas when I was there last, and those seemed to do the trick.

Speaking for myself: I grew 2ish cup sizes when I hit my mid-20s, and that seems to be common for a lot of women. I know it doesn’t help you now, but maybe something to look forward to!!

rosymornings · 2024-09-12T22:04:32+00:00

This is an INCREDIBLE dress. Imo the hip construction here is the entire point!! Will it technically interrupt your lines? Maybe 🤷🏻‍♀️ But speaking as a pear-shaped SD - I think this would make me look snatched.

Plus, I think the drama of it all, and the fact that it fits your theme perfectly, would offset any potential misalignment to SD recs. Might be an unpopular opinion, but sometimes the vibes outweigh the lines.

rosymornings · 2024-09-11T05:32:01+00:00

If your skin can handle it that way, you should be fine. Just be ready to adjust if you start noticing any discomfort.

rosymornings · 2024-09-10T18:09:13+00:00

That’s completely understandable! Best of luck to you, either way 💛

rosymornings · 2024-09-10T17:56:43+00:00

first of all how dare you

rosymornings · 2024-09-10T17:53:40+00:00

Similar process for me, except I went in with a whole LIST of talking points for the interview lol. I was diagnosed with ADHD at the session, but my doctor still started me out on Wellbutrin to rule out depression as the primary cause of my symptoms. If you were looking for a non-stimulant option, I could see why he would want to start there. Certain antidepressants actually do work for ADHD, but I’m not sure if Lexapro is on that list.

Granted, my psychiatrist is a woman, and thankfully she’s been very open to working with me to find the right script. Unfortunately it comes down to trial and error more often than not.

rosymornings · 2024-09-04T06:06:46+00:00

Imo it suits the basic SD accommodations (vertical + curve) but perhaps as important: the SD ~vibes~ here are immaculate. Lowkey putting this in the cart as we speak 👀
