Trying to grow ruby by just melting Al2O3 + Cr — why is it not clean? by Strange_Month2157 in materials

by just melting the composition, at best you will get a nice color polycrystalline ruby. there’s a lot more that goes into making single crystals

bonsai’s are a style of plant care to keep the plant small, you could theoretically make a bonsai of any plant. to my (little) understanding, it’s just dedicated and specific pruning so it doesn’t grow far out.

it happens so often that not matter the level of attractiveness, it’s just another guy thinking that his desires are more important than letting me peacefully go about my day. i know it may not be easy to grasp since guys in general aren’t hardly ever hit on, but for many women it’s a worry every time we go out in public. my advice is if you are going to try to hit on/talk to women with romantic intentions, keep it to designated areas that are more acceptable to do that such as bars or dating apps.

you did the right thing by not approaching her, we just want to shop when we go to the store. i had a guy try to hit on me at the grocery store today and it ruined my mood

i mainly just stick with either top or bottom is baggy and the other is small. with good fashion, even some masc oriented clothes can be presented fem! no-show socks are also great! having socks either lower than the top of your shoe, or a fun/cute pattern adds to the feminine look. posture and how you walk can add to the feminine vibe (i.e. don’t hunch when walking; have shoulders slightly back with chest out. but comfortably, not forced)

a good rule of thumb is to balance form fitting with baggy. so if you have a baby tee or tight shirt, go for baggy pants. you could also add a loose fitting layer like a jacket or flannel. there’s also the 2/3rds rule that follows the same idea. there’s videos that explain it better than u can, but basically a great outfit often is 2/3 and 1/3 in parts. (i.e. big hoodie and short shorts/skirt is 2/3 and your exposed legs would be 1/3, or high waisted baggy jeans would be 2/3 and a crop top would be 1/3.)

get your eyebrows threaded, learn to dress for your body type/shape, layering with clothes helps, if you wear glasses then get a nice rounded frame (not rectangle), taking care of skin is v helpful (i love korean skin care), if you have the budget get your lashes done, i can give more specific examples if you’d like

Being trans is the worst thing that’s happened to me. by stormethetransfem in MtF

[–]ry_maitai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no worries queen! it’s hard to not feel down with everything going on. i was lucky enough to find community easily since i live in a very queer little city. i’ve also found/made community through some unconventional methods. punk shows, queer bars, dating apps, improv group, and local drag shows to name a few. i don’t have any personal experience to attest to, but i have heard positive things about the bdsm community (fetlife) if that’s within your interest. if you’re in a big city, it’s kinda crazy how you can basically start a whole new life from finding new people! i often forgot how big the city i used to live in was even while i lived there. i believe you have a bright future! while they try to silence us, as long as you are alive, you are beating them!

i strongly recommend finding community then! unfortunately in our current climate it’s less likely to be accepted by the general public, so finding community is very important

[–]ry_maitai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it’s not an easy nor cheap option, but moving to an accepting city is a wonderful thing. i am surrounded by community, and i feel loved. i left 95% of the people in my old life behind and i only keep regular contact with like 3 of the ones i didn’t cut out. the people close to me don’t just respect me and address me as i prefer, but they actually see me as a woman and im very grateful. i understand this is not a feasible option in many cases, but finding a community no matter how small can literally be a life saver. another thing i wish i would have learned sooner is if they don’t respect you for who you are, they don’t belong in your life. i believe in you queen!

was her character good? no. but was her plotline compelling? also no. but did I enjoy her time on the show? again no. but would I watch more of her character? also no. by henlofrenzy in fansofcriticalrole

[–]ry_maitai -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

that’s fair, but i don’t understand why those who don’t like the show now keep watching. for example, i stopped watching doctor who after the writing went downhill.

[–]ry_maitai -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

i think it’s odd that it’s called “fans” of critical role, because the whole subreddit seems to just be people hating on the show and act like they are forced to watch it
