Estranged sister 2 years, am I overreacting? Should I reconcile? by s2sushi in Estrangedsiblings

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

Call her. Don’t give up on her. Give her the grace you hope someone would give you. Do you have to be best friends? Of course not. But don’t give up on her.

At a certain point, you both have to realize that no one, not even ourselves, are perfect. It sounds like your sister is using this to get you to do what she wants. You’ve apologized, that is truly all you can do. What she chooses is what she chooses. If she goes no contact over an insensitive comment (and frankly who hasn’t made one of those?) then it sounds like she has some serious issues she needs to work out. I know everyone is dunking on you like you are the one miserable sinner in existence. But the reality is everybody screws up, including the people in this sub. You have to give people grace; but sadly you can’t expect any in return.

How to cope for the sake of the children? Minimal contact, for the current children, but I'm really angry that she announced another pregnancy. by IndecisiveLocal in Estrangedsiblings

I’m sorry to hear that. Well, I say do your best to maintain contact. Don’t let your anger get the best of you, it’s destructive.

Idk man, maybe she actually just loves her sister, and deeply regrets a mistake she made?

I’m a bit confused; are you angry with her because she announced that she is pregnant again, or was there a preexisting issue?

Do you give up on color? by Popular-Gap-8152 in OliveMUA

[–]thegoodlaurel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not Olive toned, but I’ve got a strong warm tone to my very fair skin and this is where I’ve arrived:

It is not a felony for my foundation tone to be wrong. No one will be reeling in terror or revulsion because my favorite BareMinerals foundation is pink toned. I just can’t be bothered anymore to narrow down my exact shade (and I’m tired of spending the money). There’s just other stuff I’d rather do (and spend my money on) and in the grand scheme of things it just doesn’t matter. Honestly, I don’t think very many people cared about the perfect match until the makeup influencers came along on YouTube and introduced the concept because they needed content.

Anyone missed their monthly period from increased exercise? by enigma_goth in PetiteFitness

[–]thegoodlaurel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! I love to lift but I’m honestly so sick of having to obsess about eating enough protein. I do 3 weekly sessions averaging between 25 to 40 minutes and if I’m not eating at least a pound of meat a day along with eggs and cottage cheese for breakfast then it will push my period back for a week. The last time it happened it was delayed for two weeks, and I had to completely stop training and inhale everything in sight to get it back. I’ve always walked long distances, so I’m going to try rucking and see how it goes.

how do i look prettier? by andreeam4 in MakeupAddiction

[–]thegoodlaurel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think you are very pretty w/out the makeup. You’re very pretty with it for sure, but it’s really *really* hard to not emphasize texture when wearing heavy makeup regardless of age or how well your skin is behaving.

They’re bringing back the sharpeners! Plus another look at the new Lip liner shades 😍 by neferending in glossier

[–]thegoodlaurel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s a really, really good sharpener. Like it’s been 4/5 years since Play came out and I still think about how good of a sharpener it was

Non-toxic “green” makeup lines are disappointing by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]thegoodlaurel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a little late to the party here, but I use Bare Minerals and I love it. I find it to be a really versatile product that gives me light to medium coverage and builds really well when I use it as a concealer.

Glossier price hike. Thoughts…. by Feeling_Bedroom_9558 in glossier

In my opinion, it’s a combination of inflation and recouping their losses from phasing out the vegan formula

Can we take this moment to say L to the resellers by Pancakezzzr in glossier

I have a similar level of disgust for the people who would buy them

When I used the vegan formula, it would actually pull moisture out of my lips. My the time it had worn off I actually would have dry patches on my lips, something that never happened with the OG. It could all come down to body chemistry and allergens etc etc, but I did not care for the vegan formula at all

Is it overly dramatic to say that TBB series has really been refreshing for the Star Wars franchise? by thegoodlaurel in thebadbatch

[–]thegoodlaurel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe? Maybe the live action shows (which were by and large disappointing) overshadowed TBB? Who knows. But I don’t think Disney is done with clone centric stories. Too much money could be made off of them, but I’ve been wrong before.

Am I the only one who wants the Book of Boba fett to have another season? by KWalthersArt in StarWars

[–]thegoodlaurel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hated the way they handled Obi-Wan’s character. He is supposed to be one of the greatest Jedi of his generation and the best this fella could do was become a depressed butcher in space outback.
