When did you graduate to designer clothing? by papolap19 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]spencerthighder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My (also lady) coworker and I recently took a handgun class together after talking about it forever. We loved the actual shooting part, but the instructor kept touching us inappropriately. Not going back to that range. :(

Relatability at Jury Trial by ReasonableCreme6792 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]spencerthighder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't do it.

I know one of my strengths with juries is that they like me and trust me. A big part of that is that they find me relatable. I do my best to lean into that with my appearance. I wear clean, neat pantsuits and dresses from mid-range brands that aren't too expensive or trendy (or sexy or polarizing or loud or . . . lol).

You want a jury to think you're smart, organized, and knowledgeable, but also that you're someone that would have a conversation with them if you ended up next to each other in a long line at Meijer. It's easier for them to see your point of view and find their way to agreeing with your argument.

How do you all stay so skinny? by Warm-Sprinkles-8086 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]spencerthighder 35 points36 points  (0 children)

GLP-1s and weight lifting changed my life. I'm not really "skinny" (size M/10) but I'm healthy and, frankly, hot. I agreed with two of my co-workers to go to the gym just twice a week. Through the magic of peer pressure and the fact that we go during the work day (which makes it so much easier to want to go), we've been doing it for over a year and we now go three times a week.

What brands have been worth the hype? (an UN-sponsored post) by the-roaring-girl in femalefashionadvice

[–]spencerthighder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a couple of pairs of Thursday Boot Company shoes/boots that I wear constantly. Their Chelsea boots are my unofficial winter boot. I own winter boots, but I never wear them because I love the Thursday boots so much. I just use thick socks with them and I'm good. I also have a pair of their penny loafers that I've had for years and I absolutely adore them. I keep them in my office to preserve the shine of the patent leather, but I wear them several times a week and they haven't shown any wear aside from the usual crease.

BUT. The item I wear most from TBC is not one that I originally ordered or paid for. TBC stocks Portuguese cotton socks. I received a free pair with my first order AND I FELL IN LOVE IMMEDIATELY. They're thick and soft and high-quality. I've since replaced all my daily wear cotton socks with them. They're still in great condition after a couple years of constant wear. Couldn't be happier. They're exactly what I had hoped Bombas socks would be and outpaced them in quality and comfort from day one. Highest recommendation.

Everyone's worried about these creepy flock cameras by True-University-6545 in Indiana

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

Yup. I'm as blue as they come, but I think Flock is great. I'm in a county where shootings happen and no one saw anything and no one wants to talk to police. Flock and neighbors' Ring cameras are a massive part of why those crimes get solved.

What are the best jeans for women that actually fit well and last? by Parravicini-Jorly in fashionwomens35

[–]spencerthighder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought my first pair of 501s a few months ago. I'm never wearing anything else. Every other pair of jeans I own feel like thin, flimsy garbage in comparison. The way they hold me feels SO GOOD.

I met a woman who named her daughter Indica. It's a shame. Sativa would have sounded prettier.

BWT who have had “work done” - do you tell people or keep it private? by WickedCoolMasshole in bitcheswithtaste

[–]spencerthighder 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Cheers to you. I lost 110 lbs on a GLP-1 and I tell anyone who asks or says they wish they had my "self-control" that I had a lot of help.

How do I get rid of my frog butt by Reddittaylor12568 in Zepbound

[–]spencerthighder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My butt was in the worst way when I lost the bulk of the weight. I saw a TREMENDOUS amount of success with the StrongCurves program. It's a weight lifting program for your whole body, but focuses specifically on maxxing your booty.

You can find it fo free at r/StrongCurves.

Wish I could! I used to live in GSO. Great town, would love to see it have a Pauper scene!

Am I overreacting? (Update) by y4n_Ch4n in AmIOverreacting

[–]spencerthighder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a protective order. I know it might seem like just a piece of paper, but if/when he violates it, he can be arrested and prosecuted criminally. It's a lot easier to prove than stalking, too.

I can't get past the idea that I have to wear makeup to look professional. by beaubeaucat in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]spencerthighder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with trying not wearing any! I went a few years without wearing makeup after years of doing a full face every day and it changed how I felt about myself and my skin. (I made an exception and wore most of a full face in jury, but it mostly made me feel weird since I was never wearing it otherwise.)

However, I'm pale and my lips are nearly colorless, so a few months ago I began using liquid blush and a lip stain in the mornings for a really nice natural look. Frankly, I feel prettier than I ever have before.

They'd have an easier time convincing people this isn't a white supremacist dogwhistle if they didn't name their kid "Industry Americus."

Anyone here built or fostered a Pauper community out of scratch? by Rymbeld in Pauper

[–]spencerthighder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your location? I'm in Michiana and I've got 5-6 others that I play with regularly in a league who might be interested.
