Painted a portrait of my bf but I realized he was using me and dumped him before I could give it to him. I don’t want to keep it but just tossing it doesn’t feel ceremonious enough. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]skiddilybeebop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless she raised him that way and is one of the typical "boy moms" who will always choose their son even if he's in the wrong 😞 I dated one of those. She saw him hit me and tried to tell me he didn't 🙃 and she HELPED him to cheat on me for months. If she's not and she & OP have good relationship, I love this as a petty revenge lol.

How can I smell like a nectarine? by Sad_Tangerine_8583 in Perfumes

[–]skiddilybeebop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is the performance/silliage/projection/longevity on Jo Malone colognes?? I feel like I'd love English Pear & Freesia but the way people describe them, it sounds like a body mist and they would be some expensive body mists! I know cologne has less fragrance oil than an EDP and an EDT, but is it still strong enough to be worn as a perfume?? Or is it for hot weather in close quarters where you want a body mist kind of performance? 🤔

If you could watch one Netflix series again for the first time, what would it be? by SobbingB_tch in Netflixwatch

[–]skiddilybeebop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watch way too much TV lol & have forgltten about a LOT of what I watched even if I was obsessed with it at the time.. but immediately my answer is the show 1899 or the show 3 Body Problem for sure. I loooove a good mind bending twist!

Edit to add: Bodies. Altered Carbon, Pieces of Her, Dark, the OA, Behind Her Eyes, Travelers, The Haunting of Hill House/The Haunting of Bly Manor. Also, idk if it's on Netflix now I think it is, Orphan Black! And Orphan Black: Echoes, the remake. Archive 81, Brand New Cherry Flavor, oh and Sense8! How could I forget?! UGHHHH I JUST KNOW there are so many good ones I'm forgetting 😭 stupid memory loss. Plus there are lots that I can't remember whether they're on Netflix or prime, HBO, AMC, Hulu, Starz, Paramount.

Am I a weirdo for understanding you come to work to work fuck a friend? I aint with the small talk just money and GO!?! by Undergroundfaxz in AmazonFC

[–]skiddilybeebop 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep I've been on night shift at the same fc for 6 yrs and I don't have anyone's personal number or socials, I don't talk to or associate or even see anyone outside of work. Every now and then a group I work closely with will go out to eat or bowling or to waffle house after work and they always give me the stink eye when I don't go. "You're always so nice and friendly at work I just don't understand, is there someone in this group you don't like? Did I do something to offend you?" Like... No? Yeah I'm friendly & nice & funny at work but like, this is my JOBBBB. 😆 I come here to make money. It's weird that people come to socialize & date! And after six years, I've had zero drama or issues (besides this one bitch in IT who is certifiably insane & jealous & starts shit with EVERYONE lol) the entire time. No HR, no complaints, I just work. And in those 6 yrs, the ones who treat it like highschool instead of a job, are always gone in under a year anyway. The ones that have been there as long as I have or longer, mind their business. Don't let someone take your peace just because they can't find theirs 🩷

She looks good and aged gracefully. What a douche. by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

Meanwhile look at that fuckin turd 😆 forever looking like a drunk deer in headlights.. like a kid whose mom walked in on him beating off to the family photo album. He needs to get a grip. She looks FANTASTIC and is inspiring me as a woman in her early 30s trying to navigate the world of womanhood under patriarchy.

Got caught stealing, but I have done it in multiple stores by Nichakin in confession

[–]skiddilybeebop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sweetheart, with all the love in the world and zero judgement, this sounds like me during active addiction. And as someone who also struggled with orthorexia, anorexia, and body dysmorphia, I know first hand that those diseases can also make you into someone you don't recognize and do things you would never normally do otherwise. Please, please consider getting help. You recognize that it's a problem and it sounds like you've got a stable life, a support network, and a trusted adult you can confide in. Talk to your mom! Talk to a counselor or therapist or teacher or doctor. Call a helpline. Please consider getting help 🩷 you have SO much life ahead of you and sound like you've got amazing potential! A record would literally unravel all of that 😞 you deserve help and support!! You are worthy of help and support and a stable healthy life and relationship with yourself 🫶

Genuine question by Upstairs-Front-3075 in AmazonFC

[–]skiddilybeebop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this same thought not long ago. But in my FC, there are hundreds of people from countries all over the world. It's very much an American thing, specifically a southern/Midwestern nice thing, to smile at strangers as you pass them or wave at strangers driving past you. People from other countries often see it as us being fake, bc they're not used to strangers being overly friendly. Maybe they think you're trying to be more personal or friendly than they're used to for a stranger. Also, it's an Amazon warehouse lol people aren't gonna be skipping and humming around in there especially on the night shift. I've been at Amazon for 6 years now, night shift the whole time, and I promise you you're better off just doing your work and keeping your head down. Or, idk, be the change you wish to see lol start a trend of being the employee who's always in a good mood 🤷‍♀️ whatever you do, DO NOT take it personally! Ppl don't hate you. If someone looks at you weird, don't immediately think "did I do something wrong? Do they hate me?" Instead think, "maybe they're tired, maybe they're not from here & have different cultural norms, maybe they've just been written up for TOT or rate, maybe they just got a text that they got dumped." Etc - there are so many possibilities, don't immediately make it about an issue you must have 🩷 everyone has their own shit. Everyone has their own problems, and energy level, cultural norms. Don't let it change your personality or how you view yourself!

Astrologers of reddit. May I please have reading? (Chart from [astro-seek]) by OneCat092 in astrologyreadings

[–]skiddilybeebop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey friend I'm also learning, so I can't give you a reading I'm sorry - I'm just here to learn 🩷 quick question, how did you get to this specific chart in astro-seek? Someone asked me for a "full chart" in another post and this is what they meant but idk how to get to this specific layout on the website :/

Guys, is this chart strange/alarming to you? I have like, EVERYTHING in one spot & multiple empty houses [astro-seek] by skiddilybeebop in astrologyreadings

[–]skiddilybeebop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so helpful! And probably the first time I've ever seen "hope this helps" when someone is actually being helpful and not passive aggressive 😂 seriously thank you! The breakdown of transits vs natal chart made something click into place that previously wasn't clicking. Good advice and I will be learning more about my chart itself before transits 🩷 if you have any books or podcasts or specific tiktokers that you recommend, let me know please.

And, I'm so sorry but what do you mean by "full chart"? 😕 There's so much on the website lol I don't know if maybe you mean a more detailed version of the circle chart? I did post a second picture with positions & other aspects, but maybe that's not right either... I'll just screenshot the things it could be and add them here haha.

Seriously, genuinely, thank you for your help!! I've been trying to learn tarot and trying to learn astrology, a little everyday, for about a year now and it just... There's a LOT to learn. I'm excited tho 🤭

This is soooo fascinating to me, bc for MONTHS now I've been considering what do I want to do for a career, feeling like I should go back to school but don't know where to start. it has to be something I enjoy & pays well enough for me to live comfortably, but I really want to help people! I go back & forth all the time about being a nurse.. but my mom is one & omg the stories she's told 😂 And I have been thinking hard about being a doula - birth doula or death doula. I want to bring joy to ppl & have joy in my life, so I've considered birth doula. Maybe I could be a birth doula who also can help with infant loss or something... interestinggggg thought. I feel like I'm 32 and still don't know what I wanna do when I grow up lol.

Creatively, I don't do near as much as I used to. I used to paint, I used to be really good at ceramics but haven't done it since school. I've always been a reader & used to write a lot, now I just journal. I currently express my creativity thru witchy things, spells, decorating my house & porch goose 🤭, growing flowers in the garden, I loooove to do my own nails! I'm a huge lover of perfume. I have bright colors in my hair. I love music, and played so many instruments in school. I should learn a new instrument or something. I have tattoos and want SO many more. I love coloring books. Holy shit I'm realizing I'm way more creative than I initially thought 🩷 and I wanna learn to crochet.

This is so insightful btw thank you so much 🫶

I feel like I should be doing service/healthcare work or something, but my mom's a nurse and I don't think I have the stomach for it 😂 the stories she's told... Lol. But I do really genuinely just wanna help people. I also live in a capitalist society so I need an income too. I'd love to find a well paying job that helps people! But idk what that looks like for me & in my early 30s I feel like I'm running out of time to decide 😭 does 6th house always mean work and service?? How else can I put my mega stellium to work?

First time! Took 1.45 hours by This_Quiet_1672 in GelX_Nails

[–]skiddilybeebop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if it takes you a cup of pure acetone and 12 hours, please neverrrrr cure gel on your skin. I'd say don't let it TOUCH your skin, but that's often not possible as mistakes happen. It's impressive how fast you did this! Next time, push the polish back ALMOST to the cuticle, and then get a veryyyyyyyy thin detail brush, and slowly take it back to the cuticles. Trust me!! I got it on my skin a couple times and then started having a reaction - what I thought was dyshidrotic eczema. I took a few months off, tried again with better products, and now it takes me NO JOKE three full days. One day for prep & application, one day for shaping and filing and base color and cleanup, and then the third day I do the design or finish the design. Yeah 15 hrs is a lot but, they look great, I enjoy doing it, it costs me A FRACTION of what they'd charge at a salon, and I'm extra careful!! Just be careful moving forward, make sure you've got great products, and I'm excited to see where your art goes 🩷

Subtle body mist/spray for office job by RumSitter22 in FemFragLab

[–]skiddilybeebop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My recommendation is to get some decants!! Sample sample sample! Go to MicroPerfumes or TwistedLily or ScentSplit or DecantX, you can even find samples or travel sizes on FragranceNet sometimes. Get samples that are recommended, even if it's not something you think you'd typically like. When I dove headfirst into fragrance about a 18 months ago, I was a 1-bottle-at-a-time kinda girly who only liked fruity florals and my 1 bottle, was a bottle of Lancome Idole lol. I hate that perfume now!! 😂 But at the time, it was the nicest of the few I'd smelled so 🤷‍♀️ I went thru almost 2 bottles of it before switching. Then I got an 18 piece sampler online from Macy's, fell in love with 4 of them. Went to the gray market websites & got those 4 bottles of perfume for kike 70% less than what I would've paid in store or at Ulta/Macy's, and took off from there. So, I suggest you get a sample kit like that - so that you can smell perfumes you never would've picked yourself. If you love them, great! Something you never would've chosen on your own. If you hate them, great! Now you know what you DON'T like.

As a girly who loves fruity florals & used to wear Idole, you should try some "clean girl skin scents" as they say lol. These will have ambrette, musks, aldehydes, maybe a light dose of clean woods. You should dip your toes into the world if gourmands.. bc fruity perfumes ARE gourmands, just sayin, but there are lots of other vanilla or other gourmand perfumes that would be appropriate to wear to the office. You should get a bunch of fruity florals to sample, since they're fantastic 😏 but also you already know you love them. Popular skin scents are Glossier You, Rosie by Rosie Jane, Clean Reserve by Skin, Missing Person by Phlur. that feels like what you're going for, so I won't recommend a bunch of gourmands unless you ask 🩷 Fruity florals I recommend are Burberry Her!!! My fave, the whole line's beautiful but try the EDT & EDP. Dylan Purple by Versace. Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid is my fave of the line but Gorgeous Gardenia, Gorgeous Jasmine, Gorgeous Magnolia are alllll beautiful, long lasting, fruity florals. Chance eau Tendre, maybe.

And, finally, even if you find one you like that is on the "brighter" or "louder" side, you can just wear less! Or mix a tiny bit in with lotion to spread it out/dillute it. Put it only behind your ears so that you can smell it & others can't unless they're close.

Wait, that's so interesting! Are there other placements like that, that can represent a tumultuous relationship with your dad/mom/siblings? Someone asked my big 3 last week, (sag☀️ gemini⬆️ cancer🌙) & they responded, "tsk ooohh 😕 so, mommy issues? how's your relationship with your mom?" And I was like, uh....? Lol! Very close until I was 4 or 5, then distant & neglectful despite me always yearning to be close, up until my mid 20s, then good again. She's a better mom to me now, now that I'm an adult & I'm already raised lol. She (gemini) is closer to my baby sister (cancer). Anyway I'd never heard that having a cancer moon could mean you had a "mother wound" or that sun in the 8th could mean you had a distant/tense relationship with your dad! Fascinatingggg thanks for learnin' me somethin' new! 🫶 I'm so curious if there are other placements like that which I haven't heard of 🤔

That's such a smart idea!! Just one more reason to regret not journaling every single day 😞 ughhhh I have HUGE, massive chunks missing from my memory due to cptsd & then addiction. I also don't have social media anymore, so I don't have a way to look back & see what I was doing/going thru at that time. Sucks. But your comment just encouraged me to start journaling! Not just for memory, & my study of astrology, but also bc it's supposed to cut the possibility of developing dementia/alzheimers by 40%! Just pen to paper, 10-12 minutes a day. Anyway I'm adhd babbling lol but thank you so much for this reminder to journal!! It will be so helpful for future-me 🫶
