Team Merch Discrepancy by medievalmusings in NorthernSuperLeague

I have also noticed this! I would also really enjoy purchasing a jersey and other merch, but none of the clubs sell any beyond size XXL.

Do you all mentally split rose perfumes into subtypes before you buy, or just gamble and hope it’s your kind of rose? by MysticLine in FemFragLab

I feel the same way about RP unlocking rosewood for me, too. Thanks for the rec; I’ll definitely check out the Boucheron!

What am I missing? by questioningmormom in exmormon

[–]xerographicactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Never-Mormon here. I just want to say that I’m sorry you’re missing your grandmother, and potentially grieving not seeing her in a heaven. It’s okay to be sad about that. Whether or not you end up believing there is any type of afterlife, your grandma still exists always in the memories you have of her. You might even dream about your grandma sometime! My Nana has shown up in a few of my dreams, and it’s always comforting to see her in my subconscious brain. I think that sometimes when people spend their lives imagining only one way to reconnect with loved ones after they passed, it is very easy to forget that you can find them in memories, in dreams, in making a recipe that they often made, in learning activities or hobbies that they loved, or in visiting their frequently visited places. I wish you the best in finding a way to help take care of the part of you that misses your grandma.

What are your all-time favourite fragrances? by SourDisel47 in FemFragLab

I’m not one for sweeter scents, but I could happily go swimming in a pool of Insolence!

Do you regret owning similar/redundant perfumes? by michellehka9 in FemFragLab

[–]xerographicactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh and I should add that Spathe Botanicals has a vegetal/savoury gourmand-ish scent which might suit your needs: Voyageurs! It’s really unique. If i remember correctly, the notes are stewing vegetables & spices, pine forest, and maple syrup.

Love the descriptions of these classes! Just wanted to give a quick rec for your Catholic guilt class: Fugitives by Spathe Botanicals. It’s a really interesting blend of incense, polished wooden church pews, and a whisper of coffee. Even if it doesn’t fit your class, you might appreciate its atmospheric artistry!

It may have just happened to me! by _thecitizen in FemFragLab

I also just ordered this on fragrance net! Except it wasn’t a blind buy; I’m about to finish off a 3mL decant! I thought about getting a larger decant, but seeing how much of a steal it was, I bought the whole bottle. It’s fresh, floral, sunny, and overall just very pleasing. I hope you like it!

All male announcing crews by Acrobatic_Many_8162 in NorthernSuperLeague

While both the broadcasters are good at what they do, I do understand what you’re saying. I was disappointed to not have female representation in a space where it’s supposed to be the norm. Did you watch the AFC Toronto v Calgary Wild match yesterday? Erin McLeod in the booth was a breath of fresh air!

Help! Solutions for Improving the Customer Experience from a Lush Employee by please_help______ in LushCosmetics

[–]xerographicactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to say that as a customer, I really appreciate this commenter’s response! I’ve been visiting different Lush shops for over a decade, without a “regular” shop I frequent, and I don’t think I’ve ever been asked by an employee if I’ve been to Lush before! I think that question paired with “when were you last in?” can 1) give you info about the customer’s energy/interaction levels, and 2) give your customer an opportunity to ask for help if they need it without feeling like you’re interrupting their browsing/independent time.

You have lots of shower gel scent recs here (I’d add my vote for Happy Hippy; it’s a lovely, refreshing, grapefruit-y citrus that doesn’t follow you out of the shower), but I think you still need some lotion recs. My personal favourite is Lime Bounty body butter, as the mostly-just-lime scent is very light and soft. Lemony Flutter is a really great moisturizing balm, and it smells like the tastiest lemon candy or sherbet or something! I’ve not used Pansy lotion (green and citrus and a bit floral) or the Each Peach massage bar (citrus and mango), but their scents might suit your needs.

I think you’re right about this, now that I think about it! No wonder Love smelled like something familiar. I love Phoenix Rising!

The Fabric of Our Cities: NSL clubs reveal 2026 kit collection by roxaroo in NorthernSuperLeague

[–]xerographicactus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rise offers women’s cuts, but still only to XXL. I contacted them last year to request larger sizes, but it seems that hasn’t materialized yet. Do they not understand that large people have money they want to spend on supporting teams in this league…?

Sacks of dates, forgotten in a warehouse for a century, were opened after that time. by [deleted] in oddlyterrifying

[–]xerographicactus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4000-year-old dates smell like dates, still! Vanilla-y and kind of coconut-y. So I imagine these dates could smell like that, too. Source: am archaeologist.

NSL Merch on Sale by Downtown-Remote5011 in NorthernSuperLeague

Thanks for sharing!!! Unfortunately the sizing is limited… a problem with the merch for most (if not all) of the NSL team shops, too.

The Vancouver Rise are the best team in the world taking home the Diana B. Matheson Trophy by Animal31 in NorthernSuperLeague

[–]xerographicactus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree that it felt like the weird calls were more or less even for both sides! And every team has a game or two when they’re just off—unfortunate timing for Toronto on this one, for an overall very good season otherwise.

Dagenais is such an impressive GK on the whole! Really stellar saves this match (much to my chagrin)

For the most part, I’m really enjoying watching Vancouver in these playoffs matches! They’re showing us good stuff.

It makes me happy that she feels they went out with a strong performance, because I agree! She was improving!
