It’s impossible for me to forget that all bees (& wasps & ants) are order HYMENOPERTA, literally named for them being 99% virgin females

So I am totally stumped.

As a person who has an abnormal number of bottlecaps for hobby reasons, thank you for making me feel rich! Also, why would anyone else want these?

Technically, we do a meth about it! Cocaine does almost nothing for me since I’ve received a doctor-ordered double dose of meth daily since my diagnosis at 17. Damn the blood ghosts for cockblocking all the potential cocaine connections I’ve missed out on!

I know our life sucks. That is exactly why meditation is so helpful, and important. You can easily do a gratitude meditation - breathe in thinking about something you’re thankful for, breathe out letting that gratitude flow down from your head through your body. This will instantly help your body and brain feel better. Other meditations help us separate what we want (everything to be better) from what we actually need (air, water, food, a place to sit), and see that we cause our own suffering through attachments to our expectations, which finally gives you a real way to stop hurting yourself constantly, by letting go of the weapons you use. You already hold the key. There is honestly, no judgement in meditation. Just keep gently guiding yourself back to your breath and/or whatever you are trying to focus on, and let yourself just be you for a while. It’s surprisingly helpful.

To reduce steps, I keep the electric kettle on the counter. Then it’s just steps 5-12. But you also forgot step 10.B = forget about tea, and 10.C = remember tea and try to figure out where you left it.

Note: not MTF

If you’re light skinned, oh yeah does it work. I used on my legs for 6 weeks, once a year for 2 years in a row, and now the hair that did regrow is so much thinner and lighter that I didn’t even shave this summer. Whoever is saying it can’t be used on face - not true, get one with a facial attachment. Whoever is saying it takes a long time or isn’t effective - I was shaving weekly anyway (which you have to do before each treatment) and lasering my legs I got down to 20 minutes; it’s not much extra time but it had a drastic effect on my comfort level going more than 2 days without shaving. Doesn’t work on my darker private bits but for legs, body, pits, and face, it was a complete game changer for me. I got the Braun silk expert pro 5 back in 2023. I would look for one with a better continuous-pulse now, but am otherwise quite satisfied.

Isn’t it

Very sus

Fishnet looks trashy and anything pleather looks trashy, ugly, AND uncomfortable.

Done all the colors by now. Started with red and black, moved through fire-hues like red orange and pink, tried green, have finally settled these days on a nice pink-purple-blue-teal ombre, which looks nice and mermaidy in my wavy hair. Hardest to keep in is reds and pinks, easiest to keep is blue and green. I love blues and teal because they suit my eyes and skin tone - red and pink make me look flushed, but I do keep pink and purple around my face to keep things bright and fun and show some contrast & movement. Every Sunday I take some me time to refresh any fading colors, try to paint my nails, and take a nice long shower to wash out the dye. Edit to add: if you have medium length hair or longer, pay a professional to do your bleach! I do all my own color, but having someone do the bleach keeps my hair really healthy, even with lots of dye and product. When I did my own bleach, I had to keep cutting my hair shorter and shorter because I would always fry it somewhere and it would get frizzy.

Get a hot tub. My partner and I are both tall and both love to relax in hot water. Now we get to submerge our tense monkey bodies in our personal hot spring and just float any damn day we want to, for as long as we want to. It’s great for our relationship. Plus, foot jets! We spent $7k on ours- a true luxury- but it was one of the best health / self care purchases I’ve ever made in my entire life.
