Unfortunately it's true. It's pretty well known in beauty/aesthetic procedure spaces, which many celebrities inhabit. It's why so many have samey looking teeth, it's wild.

iheartneopets ,

You're right. They just made her drop dead stunning in the games, so that's how the bulk of the fandom envisions her

iheartneopets ,

Exactly

iheartneopets ,

Idk.... That might even out. During a 30 hr drive, I'd probably add on at least 8-9 hours for every 8-9 driven, because that's as long as I can stand to drive at a stretch without needing to find a hotel to stop for the night. Driving for that long is goddamned miserable, and at least in a train you can book an overnight car to sleep in so that even when you sleep travel keeps happening.

Idk, maybe I'm totally off base and this is totally personal preference, but if I'm already driving that far, I'd rather just take the train to not have to worry about driving myself.

iheartneopets ,

I can't believe you've done this

iheartneopets ,

Untrue.

Signed, a chick who gives negative shits about other people's babies.

Oh I got the cyanide reference. Still sucks as a two-sentence horror. Would better suit the plethora of antijoke subs.

As an example of this, if I got a C on any report card/progress report, my parents would take my phone away for the following 9 weeks until the next one came out with better grades. As a kid with undiagnosed ADHD, that meant I had my phone taken away...a lot. As a result, I had no real friendships by the end of high school, and ate my lunch alone every day. If you couldn't text people/connect on socials, then you never got included in plans or developed those relationships with anyone.

It was lonely, painful, and it fucking sucked. My parents were too wanna-be Boomer to give a shit or even ask. I don't speak to them any more for that and other reasons.

So yeah, social media may suck, but cutting your child off from modern social circles is a much worse parenting choice. Ideally you'd keep an eye on their use and help them form a healthier relationship with it. But I understand parenting is hard, especially when both parents work full time jobs.

I would buy it and give it a shot. You should know before the refund window if it's something you're interested in or not

iheartneopets ,

Bisexuals are used to it

Cherish that Subaru, because it's not that way in them anymore. At least, not in ours, which was purchased in 2021. Now hvac is all touch screen; it's awful.

iheartneopets ,

The problem is that even the fan speed settings/airflow settings are touch now, which require divided attention while driving to adjust. That defrost button turns the setting on full fucking blast, when most of the time there's no call for that, so I have to look and find the fan speed part of the touch screen. Adjusting the temp is only one small part of climate control in the cab. Plus, if you start out your drive with the seat warmers on, but now they're sweating you out while driving, you have to navigate into a separate menu via touch to turn them off.

Not to mention the never ending battle of adjusting the brightness via touch if it's blinding my eyes while driving at night VS barely being visible during the day.

It's all just so frustrating, and I wish there were at least options to take the damn thing out.

iheartneopets ,

It would be incredible if there was a knitting pattern for sweaters like this available online somewhere

iheartneopets ,

I was raised in that environment and still relate to the first part of your comment

iheartneopets ,

No, just raised in the suburbs

iheartneopets ,

I was just trying to offer the perspective to others that not all people in suburbs were like that. I wasn't trying to offend or come at you or anything.

iheartneopets ,

Is there a dankchristianmemes on Lemmy yet?

iheartneopets ,

Pretty sure the meme format is for something you get extremely worked up about and want to passionately tell someone, even in inappropriate moments, but no one really gives a fuck

    Bi_irl moment

    iheartneopets ,

    This alone would make me more likely to switch back to iPhone, as much as I hate the walled garden. "Just switch to a private messenger app" doesn't really work when no one else uses them. I've even gotten all of my family to try Signal, but they dropped it in favor of going back to imessage. It's extremely frustrating, far from ideal, but it is what it is.

    Google reading my messages at all, even if it's "oPt OuT", is a complete non starter.

    iheartneopets ,

    Thank you for this! Didn't know it was a thing, I'll do that.

    iheartneopets ,

    As an American, I can day it's definitely not the sweetness to me. I find Turkish delight very sweet, almost too sweet. The texture is mostly what hangs me up, as well as a weird flavor I can't put my finger on. It reminds me of gum drop candies? Which are the least popular candies by a lot here, as any child on Halloween will tell you lol.

    It may just be one of those locational things where if you didn't grow up with it, you just don't like it? Like peanut butter, I'm told.

    iheartneopets ,

    Truth about the Cinnabons, give me a tray of those and I'll prob tell you my mom's maiden name and social.

    iheartneopets ,

    Just something I've heard from Europeans occasionally 🤷🏻‍♀️

    iheartneopets ,

    The kind from Europe I'd assume

    iheartneopets ,

    Interesting! I'm just an insulated American going by what I've heard on various reddit forums in the past. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to meet too many Europeans personally yet :)
    Redditors are notoriously full of shit, though, so I shouldn't be surprised.

    Tbh, though, I would understand if someone didn't like PB; some times I don't even like it if there's too much.

    iheartneopets ,

    I cannot stop thinking about how that man's nuts are crammed up against that camel, and wondering how the camel feels having found itself in this situation

    iheartneopets ,

    Wiser words were never said

    iheartneopets ,

    Super not enthused with how centrist this is. Comes off as more of the "can't we all just get along and live in unity??" stuff people say, when really they mean "the left needs to chill and stop making everything a big deal."

    Kinda hard to just 'get along' when the other side is trying to destroy democracy and strip large portions of the population of their basic human rights.

    iheartneopets ,

    I'm not sure where you live, but living/growing up in the south.... I can tell you that those beliefs run deep. Deep deep deep. Deeper than you can fix by just being pleasant to your neighbor.

    If you try to talk to them with kindness and openness, they dig in their heels and start spewing fox news talking points like it's the most obvious thing in the world (I'm pretty sure they like it so much because it confirms every awful belief they already had). Try to present different sources, they're rejected as fake news. I've tried everything with people around here since before 2016 and nothing seems to help. Mostly I just keep to myself.

    Living in the south, if you're not indoctrinated, is very isolating. Even living in the cities doesn't really help. You still need to dig deep and look carefully for people who don't think you deserve fewer rights.

    Edit: thinking about it more, I think the isolation is the point, and it's how so many people in my state believe some of the same basic things when it comes to religion and politics. You learn pretty young around here that if you don't get with the program, you're not going to have many friends. If you didn't go to church, especially, you lost out on most of the community's socializing for the week. It feels very cliquey in the smaller towns especially, almost by design.

    iheartneopets ,

    I definitely don't? I was just providing my experience for the place I live. Obviously not all places are the south...? And good for you on your 'more civilized place', but we're not talking about those areas.

    Seems to me that, to solve rent crisis, Americans should just move into Europeans' heads, since we seem to live there rent free already.

    iheartneopets ,

    Nice beaver!

    iheartneopets ,

    Lmao amazing
