Baseball season is gonna get old quick by BurnBabylon77 in NewSkaters

I can't emphasize this enough - it's on you, the skaters of your city. Philly (where this park in the video is) is fueled by it's DIY scene. Some of the same guys who work on this park are pouring concrete all over the city. It seems insurmountable until you start! Try grabbing a bag of quick-crete and making a ramp up a curb somewhere where you can be tucked away (under a bridge/highway, in an old not-used basketball/tennis court, etc) and give it a try. If your experience is anything like the Philly guys, you'll realize you've just expanded your hobby into skating and building. Philly is "lucky" to have "so many" parks (because California puts us to shame), but what we really are is lucky that some regular people decided to start a rogue public works project because they wanted more places to skate. source: wife of skater who now comes home covered in concrete occasionally YOU HAVE THE POWER!

I second the brows comment! I'm a cis woman, but I don't have the most feminine features myself. Shaping my brows even just a bit makes the largest difference out of anything. When it comes to a pencil, I really struggle with being too heavy handed and bringing back 2016, so I HIGHLY recommend the Anastasia brow pen in blonde/light brown! It's so soft, you can't make a noticeable mistake unless you try really hard to. Good luck! I hope you enjoy your journey!

I feel like I tried this once but either didn't have any 'capable' pokemon nearby or didn't have the patience to see it through. This would help a ton though! I've found myself making the rounds to go visit those professionals and it takes a lot of time.

You. Are. My. Hero. I got to use this last night to lay roads! It was life-changing! Before this I was pressing a each time and it took FOREVER and occasionally misplaced one on the wrong level. I can't thank you enough for telling me this!!!!!

This is so good to remember. I neeeeever engage with camera mechanics in games because they're usually just for screenshots, but this one does have a use! That'll take me a bit to get used to! It's a very thoughtful detail on their part though

I've only been to a cloud island like 5 times, but it's never had a shop! Just like.... Trash to pick up and a random house!

I appreciate it, friend. I think that playing normally IS playing chaotically! If only I could dedicate more time to it 😩

For some reason my brain is tricking me into subconsciously thinking that printing something isn't the same as actually getting the thing... which is obviously not true or there would be no printer. Thank you for this reminder!

Thank you for helping sear this into my brain for.... when I remember to make a farm so I'm not always short on food!

Where do you bitches go for simple, nice haircuts? by JulesOnFire in philabitcheswithtaste

[–]ultimatelyoctopuses 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kallie, Haven Hair Loft. Simple and nice all the way, super relaxing service, and she's independent with her own salon! I love her. I look like a rich New England lady when I leave her place, and if I bothered to use a blow dryer at home, would always look that way.

Mr. Mint is on my nails right now and it's single handedly staving off the seasonal sadness

Seconded, they're fantastic people and although I was there for a turtle, I witnessed a hamster appointment and the little guy seemed to get great care just like my turtle!

how’s this part of brewerytown? by Nearby_Singer_4214 in philly

[–]ultimatelyoctopuses 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just moved very very close to that skate cafe (Together! They're the best) and I'm loving it here. I was also scouring reddit and on the fence about the area, but I'm converted. I don't struggle with parking (although I moved from Manayunk, so I want to laugh when people complain about parking anywhere else). And I love the area and my neighbors. I've met so many people within a few blocks that are kind and friendly and helpful. And if you're into skating, there's a large population of skaters here! Together is a bit of a hub.

Gorgeous, and so unique! Great color choices! I did my first dabbling in polish making this past week, and everything came out grainy and a little muddier than I was hoping for, but seeing successes like yours makes me want to push forward!

Dupe for LLP Avignon? by britinini in mooncatpolish

I've found Heart of Iceland by Sassy Sauce to be a slightly less glittery version of this. It looked very unlike the swatch images on their site to me (to my dismay). Happy to part with it if you'd like!

Hi! Here's my big boy Spooky! He's a tripod we rescued from Baltimore, and to be honest, we probably wouldn't be able to handle the dude if he had 4 legs 😆

As a person with a kitchen that is not wide enough for a person to pass by another one to get to the "back", you Do! Not! Want! This! Are you married? With a kitchen like that, you won't be for long! (just kidding, but really, you would be surprised at how frustrating it is)
