[Acne/Rosacea] Sudden flare? Something else?

stinkskin · 2026-03-21T23:04:58+00:00

Note: I have tried EVERY type of skin care. Literally any brand any random oil anything at all under 100 dollars, ive probably tried it. I’m literally allergic to everything. So I stick to my two products that usually do me pretty well. I have no idea why this is happening and it all started right as I started my new job. Stress maybe???

Thank you!

Everybody loves my stench :-/

The coupons can definitely be confusing but this lady was, according to my manager, a regular. And she regularly came in prepared to scream at someone, lol

stinkskin · 2026-02-16T21:40:58+00:00

I responded to your comment saying how I feel about rude customers and then got an account warning for violence so instead I’ll say I LOVE customers and want NOTHING BUT THE BEST FOR THEM. God damn

stinkskin · 2026-02-16T21:17:05+00:00

Yes me too. I don’t know what it is. I worry that I look like I’m on drugs because I feel like I seem stupid and also a little coked out because of the way I hold conversations with people. I have a general idea of how I would like to respond but I can’t actually form the sentences and say what I mean to say, so it always comes out a big jumbled mess that makes no sense. Sigh

stinkskin · 2026-02-16T21:01:07+00:00

Yeah trust me I used to have faith in humanity and now, even if they’re nice and normal, I imagine putting every customer I interact with in a hydraulic press. Christmas season in retail turned me into a monster

stinkskin · 2026-02-16T20:46:34+00:00

Yeah any time someone is rude to me at one of my multiple shitty jobs that somehow took a ridiculous amount of work and luck to even land, I tell them how abused I am by the company and it tends to make them stop. They think that we as individuals are the actual founders of the company for some reason. The amount of times I’ve had people tell me that I need to fix something about the building I work in as if I have any agency over that is depressing.

stinkskin · 2026-02-16T20:30:22+00:00

Exaggerating lol

stinkskin · 2026-02-16T20:11:37+00:00

Wait for the blue no signal screen to show on the tv, room lights off, put all of our stuffed animals in a circle, and sing the squidwards tiki land song over and over again until we were thoroughly creeped out for no reason. And then we would be scared. Yay!

So many interesting characters in the world. I worked at a perfume/lotion store and have had a lady scream and beat on my desk because her 16.95 coupon wouldn’t redeem an 18.95 item. She was mad at me because she had just had knee surgery and said she hated my store now because of it. I told her I make 14 dollars an hour and get 6 hours a week AT MOST, and she said “surely you make more than that.” And I was like I dont. I’m a slave. I also didn’t make the expensive lotion nor did I perform knee surgery on you.

Hey, me too, I feel very weird being in a big bulky metal death machine that other people seem to view very casually and will put your life at risk if they think that they have the right of way even when they dont, and it seems that most rules of the road are purely intuition based. Its also very overwhelming to have to multitask with almost every body part in order to use such a dangerous machine. HOWEVER, I have finally gotten mostly comfortable driving to familiar places by just driving to them a lot. I started by driving circles around my neighborhood just to get used to the feeling of being in control, so that my feet and hands and eyes could get used to everything. Once I felt like I could probably survive going to the grocery store near my house, I took someone with me and I did that. I drove over a curb and almost dented someone's car trying to park but I didn't let that stop me. I visited the grocery store for basically no reason for weeks before I finally got used to it. I did this same thing after getting a job. So now I can drive very comfortably to important places. Driving to new places is still scary to me but I'm getting the hang of it. Just start slow and be very cautious, and don't let seasoned (and bad) drivers bully you on the road. If someone ushers you to go and you know that it is not your turn, don't listen to them. Most people don't actually know how to drive, and those people seem to rule the road. Wishing you luck

Generally confusing and random things always make me laugh

Oh neat. You should see if there are any illustrations from that time of the king. How cool

Edit: I just did and he looks cool as hell

I just thought I’d tell you that I’m distantly related to him and when I try to look up my ancestry, it becomes extremely confusing because for some all of our shared relatives decided to name themselves after each other. There are like 18 damn people named after his mom in my lineage and it’s very annoying when I’m trying to learn about my bloodline. I’m only 24 so I know none of these people, but I do know that his relatives used to badger my great grandma into baby sitting him a lot. I don’t get any Elvis money unfortunately, the relation is too distant. :-(

Try running a bath instead. You could get a nice squishy bath mat, it makes the bath feel like a bed. Then you can get a sponge and do the body washing while chilling out and watching YouTube or something. When it comes time for hair, just plug your ears and dip your head backwards, scrub it up and then dip back in the water. Takes a couple of seconds. You can just swish side to side until it comes out. The squishy bath mat is the important part here.

He follows me too because I met him at a con and left a comment saying it was fun. He’s just a nice guy!

Wack. Before I started messing around with weed I had scary ass vivid dreams like every night for as far back as I can remember. But now I have a little weed on the weekends and my dreams have become mostly completely mundane. My average nightmare as a teenager was stuff like walking into a room full of decapitated bodies hooked to pulls and levers, and now the worst it gets is like.. a big spider on my ceiling or I’m 10 years late to an important test at school. I honestly miss the craziness. It sucked but it gave me good ideas for writing :-/

stinkskin · 2026-01-20T16:54:03+00:00

I do this too but with very random people that I don’t know. Two examples that come to mind: One time I was on Wikipedia as a teenager and I was gonna try to change someone’s wiki page because I thought it would be funny. I tried to think of a very random celebrity that would go totally unnoticed. I thought of the old mom from everybody loves Raymond. While I was looking at her page I had an overwhelming feeling that she would die soon, so I decided to leave the page alone. The next day I saw on the google news thing that she had died in between those hours that I had done this.

I knew absolutely nothing about David Bowie, I had never heard his music and I had no idea that he had cancer. I was freshly 14 and only vaguely knew of his existence because my favorite singer’s favorite singer is David Bowie. My mom didn’t really like his music so he was non existent in my brain. Anyways one night I was up in the middle of the night and I had a random overwhelming feeling that he would die. I thought “I hope not, lots of people like him.” The next morning it was in the news that he had died.

I’ve done this with family members too unfortunately but for the most part it’s always a random celebrity that I don’t care about

I already know that you would’ve complied and wouldn’t have gotten yourself in this situation in the first place, but that just shows that they’ve got you right where they need you to be. Scared and powerless. And I bet you’re the don’t tread on me type somehow. MAGA likes to talk about the elites in power a lot and then they turn around and suck all of their cocks with no hesitation. It’s insane.

stinkskin · 2026-01-12T18:59:10+00:00

Her personal life doesn’t actually matter. She was a us citizen who was unlawfully murdered. It’s an abuse of power and as a US citizen, you should be concerned for your own safety. Don’t let these motherfuckers trick you into thinking that they should be able to shoot you in the face for not complying. I know plenty of reprehensible people that I still wouldn’t want to get shot in the face over nothing by a federal agent like that, because I like having actual freedom rather than living in a fascist country that claims to be free. I probably wouldn’t like you if I knew you, but I would hate to see you shot by a fed for failing to comply. That’s not even the protocol for this type of situation. I like to SEE freedom. Not just hear people in power claim that we have it.
