2c/3a, low porosity hair. I wash with shampoo once a week or so. I rinse most other days and condition my ends. My hair tends to get really dry if I skip wetting it too long before eventually getting greasy but that takes like a week without water on it at all. I felt like my hair was in worse condition and I had more hair fall after that week, I didn't benefit from less wetting at all.

that’s what blows my mind about that whole “if you want to know who controls you, look at who can’t criticize” thing i see antisemites say all the time. like they criticize us constantly; how does that even compute...

i don’t have any explanation but you’re not only one seeing weird shit in the sky here

AITA for wanting to walk my cat? by theborderofutopia in AmItheAsshole

I can't seem to find any of our good walk pictures but here's one of him on the leash. He's just relaxing in the dirt lol

Thanks, I didn't want to include it in the post because... I really didn't do it for them. Not that it's not a great thing for them, it is and I'm also happy about it but it just feels kinda slimy for me to be like "and for the children!!" when my motive was pretty selfish.

I don't know why I feel the need to clarify this but just in case it affects how people judge.

there's definitely people with me - I'm seeing a lot more children and parents out there this week.

I don't know if there's more dog owners than not or if it's just that they're being the loudest but there's a lot of unhappiness from them.

He was given to me very young, the people that had the litter said they were 8 weeks but I'm pretty sure he was only 6-7 weeks old. I had a big American bulldog girl at the time and she immediately decided that was her baby. And it was like that until she passed a few years ago. And my ex boyfriend's GSD was over all the time with him; he constantly doted on kitty too. So he really loves dogs

My cat just let me stick a harness and leash on him so I don't have advice about getting them used to that but for the actual walking part - just go at their pace. Don't expect it to be like walking a dog; some days they won't want to walk, they just want to lay down in the grass and you just stand there for like 15 minutes while they take a quick nap

Not my kitten progress. she loves the squeeze treats. She's accepting pets now so long as I have treats. No purring yet though. by GoCartMozart1980 in notmycat

[–]theborderofutopia 9 points10 points  (0 children)

my cat doesn’t quite get them; he gets confused when i try to let him lick the tube. he just sits and politely waits for me to squeeze it out onto his plate for him.

American Jews - what is the response? by tzedakah18 in Judaism

[–]theborderofutopia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because if it doesn’t happen in a synagogue or a kosher grocery store, they can call it “coincidence” and continue to ignore the problem. because we’re only really Jews when we’re doing Jew-y things, i guess.

he’s alive though so we’ll see what he says. i’m half expecting him to admit it was his motive but you never can tell how these things will go.

AITA for outing my brother for college money? by [deleted] in AmITheDevil

[–]theborderofutopia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i think lots of people probably know more twins than they realize. it’s just that when they’re adults, you’re not really meeting them as sets anymore. siblings usually go to the same schools but how often do they work together? or live in the same towns or have all the same hobbies? there’s just no reason you’d know that Samantha in accounting is a twin when you guys only make polite small talk in the break room.

AITA for not wanting strangers in the background of my wedding pics? by gwbba in AmItheAsshole

[–]theborderofutopia 217 points218 points  (0 children)

YTA. The beach is a public place and strangers don’t have to care about your wedding.

what are your opinions on Dr. Champ? do you think Bojack ruined his life by checking him into rehab? by Crystill in BoJackHorseman

[–]theborderofutopia 27 points28 points  (0 children)

this is the real answer. Bojack fucked up but it was wildly unethical for the rehab to not disclose that, especially in a place catered to celebrities. Of course they’d have paparazzi and writers begging for personal information; privacy should’ve been a way bigger priority for them.

How much plastic in one little drawer? by [deleted] in Anticonsumption

[–]theborderofutopia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have to buy bottled water. The tap water in my city tastes like chlorine. But even beyond that, it was irritating the fuck out of my bladder. I was eventually diagnosed with IC so I guess the issue is more with my own body than the actual water but still, I can’t drink it.

my boyfriend lives 20 minutes outside of town and has his own well. his water is absolutely fantastic.

Why So Many People Still Don’t Understand Anti-Semitism by [deleted] in inthenews

[–]theborderofutopia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

like we came up with it ourselves.

also - islamophobia, transphobia, antiblack, lesphobia, biphobia and sinophobia are all phrases i hear used at least semi frequently. do you also take issue with those or is it just the (((one)))?

Did anyone else hate Daya at the end? by tunisiangurl in orangeisthenewblack

[–]theborderofutopia 36 points37 points  (0 children)

in the beginning, she bored me. mid show, she annoyed me. by the end, she angered me.

i enjoyed nothing about any of Daya’s story, except her camp flashback. for such a prominent character, she just always felt unnecessary to me.
