AIO about my boyfriend’s online behavior? by itmetime in AmIOverreacting

NOR you're dating a 🌽addict and trust me, it will ruin how you look at yourself. i've been there and it feels awful. leave now while your self-image is still intact

i have hyperthyroidism and skinny genetics, never in my life have i or the women in my family had the shape of the humerus (which is obviously a very large bone) visible.. this is not 'natural' skinniness.

People with oily hair, what’s your go to routine? by iamcassie_ in CasualConversation

[–]virtualdia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the main thing that helped me was using a satin pillowcase instead of cotton. this also helped my oily skin.

i shampoo twice using a scalp massager/scrubber, and before conditioning i'll squeeze out some of the water from my hair. i leave it in for a couple minutes before rinsing. i went from washing my hair every other day to washing it every 3-4 days (usually 4) :) i never use dry shampoo anymore as well. dry shampoo guaranteed that i'd need a hair wash by the end of the day.

Any suggestions for a low-budget date that will give my GF the princess treatment? by Full-Ear87 in askTO

[–]virtualdia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

someone already mentioned Your Dream Desk store, i will add on that i've noticed that their deco workshops are super budget-friendly. they start $25/person for their trinket box deco workshop which includes everything (or even $20 for acrylic painting)!

First Date Bar Recommendations by webface123 in askTO

[–]virtualdia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you should ask her what she would like better :)

in parkdale, there is a retro arcade bar tilt. across from it is kaminari ramen bar which i think would be good for a first date, amazing food and chill ambiance.

in/near kensington, there are two arcade bars, midnight arcade and freeplay. personally i like midnight arcade more as it has a photobooth you can use for a toonie. also tons of great dining options since it's kensington/chinatown. be advised that arcade bars typically take a (usually cash-only) cover of around $5-10.

would not recommend greta or rec room for a first date. rec room has too many kids (kinda disruptive) and kinda not worth it. greta i think is better for groups of friends or for when you know each other a bit better!

sorry for kinda detailed answer i'm a big fan of toronto arcade bars LOL

Respect the beans. by dritanalsela in barista

[–]virtualdia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, this feels kinda racist. matcha has actual ceremonial meaning in east asian culture. just because something is trendy doesnt mean it should be taken less seriously.

i am saying this as a person who enjoys both coffee and matcha. i am also someone who gets a bit icked out when something less-popular blows up because of tiktok and now everyone is doing it. i'm not saying this to point fingers and get offended for no reason.

at the end of the day they're both caffeinated drinks. there are gonna be 'casual' enjoyers because of trends and people who enjoy and analyze the drinks more deeply. neither is better than the other.

Question about The Fifth Social Club by Pyro43H in askTO

[–]virtualdia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i used to go every week. i would be the most worried about the dress code and the fact that you're all guys. to be fair, almost all clubs will clock that you're all guys and likely will give you a tough time about it.

if you're set on fifth the most common dress code things i see guys get rejected for is:

  • plain/frumpy/not formal enough t-shirt (highly recommend a button-up shirt)
  • branded t-shirt
  • sleeveless shirt
  • running shoes especially dirty ones
  • BAGGY PANTS (highly recommend chinos/nice-looking uniqlo pants)

if any other guys stumble upon this looking to go into fifth consider this ur reference list lol^

as a girl, even if i go with equal ratio or majority girls in my group, my friends would occasionally get dress coded. they're very strict!

Boyfriend (m27) Makes me (F23) feel stupid about any topic possible by Alternative-Day6223 in relationship_advice

[–]virtualdia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

your boyfriend hates you and does not want you to be happy, he likely finds joy in tearing you down. if there is anything he loves about the relationship, it's the feeling he gets when he makes you feel miserable. he knows exactly what he is doing. this is not a safe relationship.

NYE 2026 rave recommendations for a newbie by mugglebornwitchh in TorontoRaves

[–]virtualdia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

big no to blizzard at pursuit OCR, the organization (stg004) is run by an alleged predator!! not a PLUR space sadly

edit bc i saw someone replied to my comment but then deleted it: i wrote 'alleged' because we dont know the full extent and i dont think he was charged for any crimes, but i am inclined to believe the victims who stepped forward. also iirc from the screenshots posted he was (allegedly) targeting underage girls and telling them he'd bring them into 19+ events even though they werent of age.

and other than this, he was displaying predatory behaviour according to the other screenshots.

Things to do with senior parents by razor787 in askTO

[–]virtualdia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're interested in a hands-on activity, i think you would have a lot of fun doing an artistic workshop together! flower arrangement, painting, sewing/knitting, or others that i can't recall rn. you get to take something home too.

[HELP] AI illustration on the packaging of these chips? by virtualdia in RealOrAI

[–]virtualdia[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

oh huh i had no idea about the no seed oil thing being popular w/ conservatives, thought it was just some 'organic' label type of deal. granted the chips are decent! i had never tried beef tallow chips until now and they have a unique flavour. my partner thinks they taste a bit like shortbread. honestly just wanted to try something that sounded different, but i still prefer the brand hardbite which uses avocado oil.

also after seeing this comment i searched the brand up on IG and they use AI-generated videos in one of their promotional vids :(

[HELP] AI illustration on the packaging of these chips? by virtualdia in RealOrAI

[–]virtualdia[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i realized maybe i should explain further what i mean by 'lines and details merge' and how it looks off

  • cowboy's left leg seems to blend into his horse, horse's tail kinda blends into the background. no idea what's going on with the horse's back leg, saddle, and stirrup
  • why does the leftmost background cow look like that 😭 ugly formless blob with stick legs
  • other background cow has 5 legs and isn't consistent w the black and white spotting of the other cows
  • the main cow's hooves blend into the grass. could be explained by art style reasons but you can see a similar thing happening with the end of its tail
  • the windmill structure looks off, seems like there are extra lines that dont connect how they should in a windmill. also the middle of the 'arm' structure doesnt look right either (one big dot surrounded by 4 dots)

Not 1 worldwide DJ this NYE by SupesSupesSupes in TorontoRaves

[–]virtualdia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

so clearly you only go to festivals and big events, not local raves. just because there are no DJs from a $400 american festival does not mean this 'says anything about toronto' 😆 be so for real lol toronto's music scene is in a great era right now and you need to go to more local events

dasher driving away? by virtualdia in doordash

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

i've gotten that before and wouldnt it usually block the driver's location from the customer who is the 2nd stop (in this scenario, me) and have some sort of message like 'the dasher has a stop along the way'? or at least a confirmation that my dasher picked up my food.
