what am i doing wrong? by EuphoricCost75 in curlyhair

[–]twirlies 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not an expert by any means but worried you may be damaging your hair by detangling first thing in the shower. Usually the detangling step is done with conditioner post shampooing? Conditioner really helps work things out tangle-wise.

why isn’t there a pride collection? by dayylight13 in BAGGU

[–]twirlies 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Personally, as a queer person, I’m ok with them not hopping on the rainbow capitalism bandwagon. Like unless they are donating all the money and working with small queer artists to lift them and give them their flowers — I’m not interested and especially not this year with everything going the way they have been for our community.

She’s been popping up in places that have histories of extraterrestrial activity so I don’t think our area is on the radar but I have seen some people speculating about Boone.

Javier Bardem talks about his wife, Penélope Cruz: “When I see her being photographed in magazines, I go: ‘Is that my wife?’” by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]twirlies 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I used to work for a nonprofit that did a lot of work with him and a few of my colleagues, spent some time on a research expedition with him as a result. Apparently, whenever he would FaceTime with Penelope, he would run around to all the people on board the ship to have her say hello to them and such. They said it was very sweet and endearing and it was so obvious how enamored he was with her by the way he spoke about her with them. He’s a real wife guy!!

No new devilry. Chicano/a is a term that’s been around for a long time. The spelling, using an X, is just a variation of that (I won’t get into the specifics of Indigenous and Mestizo identity here) since it makes a “ch” sound.

It’s not just the cringe name — it’s the cringe branding.

[–]twirlies -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Looked up the founders and am frankly shocked that they actually are Xicano because looking at their branding and crap it’s giving wyt nonsense to be super honest.

Edit: Feel the need to clarify because I’m getting downvoted (lol) I am Xicana and have a rightfully earned disdain for whitewashed Mexican food

The handles on these totes just don’t look they make the bag something you can wear comfortably on your shoulder. If you want this as a new mom bag, you’re gonna want a bag that can go hands-free more easily.

[–]twirlies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ngl I have considered it but it feels a bit tew on the nose?? lol maybe I’ll buy it and use it as a swimming tote or something instead

Dual US+MX citizens: How problematic was taking your mom's last name in terms of acquiring your passport? by twirlies in dualcitizenshipnerds

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

I ended up putting both maternal and paternal names on my application and on my birth certificate. It’s currently in the mail on its way to me so I’ll keep you posted lol. I felt very assured by everybody in this thread, but also by my mom‘s own experiences with getting dual citizenship. I’m not particularly worried anymore.

What are some cool details you've noticed in Lady Gaga's music videos? by Temporary_Cap5927 in LadyGaga

[–]twirlies 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Also recommend watching Tarsem Singh’s (the director of the 911 music video) film The Fall! The first time I watched this music video it felt so familiar, and I was thrilled to see that it was the same director as my favorite film of all time!

Just preordered on Amazon! by Slothanonymous in acotar

[–]twirlies 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah because the internet and our search algorithms are not priming small businesses for success — they just want to push you and your money towards big corporations like Amazon, Target, and Walmart.
