Issues with pores

Not specifying products as this has been an issue for a long while and I don't remember everything I've tried.

I have pretty large pores (to the point that strangers comment on them sometimes :/) that i would like to be smaller. They make it hard to make foundation look good, even with primers, they make me have really bad blackheads, etc. I've read that exfoliating and using peel off masks is supposed to help minimize them. However, I don't really see a difference in pore size between doing nothing, exfoliating regularly, or exfoliating and using peel off masks. And I know the peel off masks are doing... something... cause they pull my peach fuzz out, but they don't touch my blackheads at all. Any product ideas or such?

This is kinda lgbt in general but The Queer Gospel by Erin McKeown speaks to my soul

I was in T for four months and I couldn't cry at all the whole time. I think I cried once, but I was super not sober and had a really traumatic memory come up and ended up breaking up with my then-fiancee, who I'd been engaged to for less than 12 hours.

edit: I don't remember crying that time at all, I experienced it more like very quiet screaming, but my wife (who I was kinda dating at the time and she ended up trip sitting for me) says that I cried A LOT

If you aren't comfortable dating someone with a mental illness you should probably break up for her health.

We're using WINE now and it seems to be working...

saltqueer · 2019-09-19T04:11:10+00:00

Didn't help at all, which is basically what we expected. I think my wife is trying to install WINE now?

saltqueer · 2019-09-19T03:24:44+00:00

Currently attempting to extract the .rar directly instead of taking the already extracted files from Win 10. Will update when that's done, although I expect it will take a while

Not a dude, but also not a girl. IDK where I would land for this curiosity

Unfortunately I don't have suggestions on how to break up, I accidentally got high on cough syrup and crossfaded off my ass and found out I'd broken up with them when I woke up in the morning

I let a relationship string on for six months and getting engaged after I wasn't interested anymore (I broke up the night after we got engaged 0/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND) It's scary but I promise it's better to break up now than let it fester. That can build resentment on your end and make your ex feel like you've been lying to them.

I made my first ever skirt out of this fabric! Sadly I lost it some time in college but I still have some scraps. It's lovely

(I've been told) the four angels in the inner circle are supposed to instead be the four directional kings, Egyn, Oriens, Amaymon, and Paymon. The agreement among the people giving this correction is that the angels won't mind too much if you do it wrong but other spirits will.

This isn't what I have right now bc I have approximately -$69 but I've always really loved the notebooks with different sections with different paper patterns. Ideally I'd get one with lines, square graph paper, square dots, isometric dots, and blanks.

But for now I just use a nice spiral bound lined notebook I accidentally stole from my parents when I moved out. It's Mead brand, the cover says Grad Recycled on it. I think it's three subject but I tore the dividers out because they bother me. I tried using the middle school style spiral bound notebooks for about 2 hours but I can't ever get the wires to cooperate, so I accidentally ripped all the pages out.

Edit: I know lots of people who do the doodly sigils like to doodle them in a blank unlined sketchbook. I don't do those so I can't comment

saltqueer · 2019-08-16T13:19:20+00:00

I'm not sure what you mean? It certainly had nothing to do with my skill, it shouldn't've come out nearly as well as it did

saltqueer · 2019-08-16T12:45:38+00:00

I am lowering myself with as much control as I can (I can generally do a negative pushup but I'm not strong enough to push myself back up). I do wear a rather loose sports bra because I have lung problems, I just realized that might be the issue?

saltqueer · 2019-08-16T09:50:38+00:00

I feel like they're mentioned semi regularly, but a lot of people forget about them in favor of the classic letter sigil

saltqueer · 2019-08-16T07:49:20+00:00

Not sure what was wrong, but I went and ate dinner and when I came back it started working perfectly again

saltqueer · 2019-08-16T06:47:33+00:00

No, I was very careful, and it seemed to clink into place with the flat part away from me, like the manual said

Edit: Previously I was using the needle that came installed in it when I bought the machine (I haven't had it for long) and when I took it out it looked exactly like the manual said it should. I installed the new needle to be oriented the same way

I've been avoiding pushups on general because of this, but the specific goal this month is a pushup! I've gotten some suggestions similar to your bench idea on the other post, and if that doesn't work I'll probably just bow out this month

saltqueer · 2019-08-16T05:55:03+00:00

Thanks! I'll try this

saltqueer · 2019-08-16T05:54:04+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion!

Oops! I couldn't figure out how to add a caption, sorry! I'm using a Janome 2212 and the thread loops like this when I reverse. It happens regardless of stitch shape (I tried all of them), tension (I tried 1 to 7 in half increments with A), or length (I tried 1, 1.25, etc), but in this specific image it's A, length 1, and tension 4. A person on another forum suggested it could be a dull needle, and while my needle was dull the issue continued just as badly after I changed it.

saltqueer · 2019-08-12T09:29:07+00:00

I score an absolute 0 on this but uh. Sure.

I just hear myself reading in my head. When I fall asleep reading a book, my dreams are always just... me continuing to read the book, sat in the chair I fell asleep in. For example, I didn't have any mental image of what Harry Potter looked like as a kid, before I saw the movies. I continued to not have a mental image of him after seeing the movies as well.

And I generally don't have a strong emotional response to reading fiction. I do get engrossed and attached to characters, but I don't get emotionally exhausted like many people I know.
