SybilVaneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you love the look of despite it being impractical, uncomfortable, or high maintenance?11·13 days agoLaser hair removal is a good long term solution for this.
I’m used to feeling sleepy and tired. It’s feeling cold that I hate. I’m dieting in the middle of a heat wave and I’m shivering so much!
SybilVaneto AskBeehaw@beehaw.org•What's a good (non-jewelry) gift for a fifteenth anniversary that I can acquire in under a week?8·1 month agoExperiences are always good. Couples massage, dinner at a nice restaurant, go to a theatre, go hiking somewhere special, go to a class together for an activity you can do as a couple, buy a game you can play together, hire a cleaner to come clean your house while you go out for a beach day together, go to a wine tasting, do an escape room, take a tour of somewhere you’ve never visited, etc. The most important aspect of the anniversary gift imo is that it should involve spending time together.
That’s all of my favorite games! I would never leave the museum!
SybilVaneto WomensStuff@piefed.blahaj.zone•Have you ever experienced mansplaining before? if so how did you deal with it?4·2 months agoMy dad does this almost every single time we talk. Ignoring him doesn’t work, correcting him doesn’t work, he’ll just not acknowledge I’ve said anything if he doesn’t like what it is.
If the issue is important enough to correct him on, I have my husband repeat what I’m saying. That seems to work. The words need to be attached to a penis in order to be understood.
This also works in other contexts. If I’m ever too exhausted to take on someone like that head on or they just refuse to listen to me, the only real solution I’ve found is to have another penis holder make my point for me. Some people will not budge no matter how clearly out of their depth they are, unless someone they respect is talking.
I’m in Canada and my issue is every machine wants you to tap somewhere different. They all have a label somewhere indicating where to tap, but sometimes it’s on a screen, sometimes a sticker somewhere, sometimes a handwritten note next to the machine… and there are so many other signs and stickers all over the place that I often don’t spot the right one right away, so it takes me a couple of tries. Other than that it’s very easy.
But the cashiers always look at you judgingly like “why don’t you know how to do this basic thing?? It has the little logo RIGHT THERE beside these other 6 flashier logos.” Or at least in mind that what they’re thinking lol
So cleanly done! I can never get them looking that neat. It’s a beautiful color too!
SybilVanetoAsk Lemmy NSFW@lemmynsfw.com•What piece of clothing on a man is equivalent to lingerie on a woman?English4·2 months agoThis list is A+. I just want to add one item: grey or colored sweatpants with a tight but not too tight t-shirt.
SybilVaneto WomensStuff@piefed.blahaj.zone•Does your body count bother you? Any regrets re sexual partners?5·2 months agoI regret not ending some relationships sooner, but I don’t regret the body count. I learned something about myself each time. I’m here now because of my choices before. And yeah maybe I didn’t make the best choices when I was younger, but that’s just a universal truth.
SybilVaneto WomensStuff@piefed.blahaj.zone•WomensStuff what's your advice for younger women?12·2 months agoDon’t try to do it all, and if you do, know that you’re not a failure just because you can’t be good at everything. There aren’t enough hours in the day to be fit and healthy, a good mother and partner, excel in your career, have a clean home, and have a thriving social life. Everyone that tells you you can have all those things either has staff helping them achieving each of those goals or is selling you a lie.
Celebrate your wins.
SybilVaneto Casual Conversation@piefed.social•What's a 1st world problem you've had recently?1·2 months agoI ate too many cheese biscuits for dinner and nowy tummy is kinda upset so I don’t want to have a full Sunday brekkie despite looking forward to it all week. :(
Yep, threatened to commit suicide and everything. When I started dating again he found my new SO’s social media and said if he kept dating me he would fight him. Thankfully the new SO was a reasonable person and just answered “I don’t want to fight you so I’m just going to call the cops.”
And she thinks it’s endearing when the main character touches her face to wipe it away, despite not knowing him, or inviting him to touch her. She has no boundaries.
SybilVaneto Ask@piefed.social•What's something you remember from childhood that with hindsight creeps you out?4·3 months agoThe number of times my butt was grabbed, spanked, etc. by complete strangers any time I was out alone. And I don’t even mean as a teenager. I fully remember this happening when I was walking home from school in grade 1. It just seemed so normal even then. The adults know what they’re doing, and they’re just being playful, right?
Very true. One of my pet peeves is reading about female characters who, unlike other women, don’t wear makeup and spend all their time doing nerdy hobbies only and never do anything at all to take care of their appearance because that’s a waste of time… But their hair is always shiny and bouncy and they are fit and their skin is smoooooth and their boobs are perky (of course they are!) and, most importantly, they always fall for the main character for absolutely no good reason.
SybilVaneto Games@lemmy.world•A game you "didn't know it was bad 'til people told you so"?English3·3 months agoI loved it at the time too! But you’re the first other person I’ve seen praise it.
I’ve gone back to replay it a couple of times and, yep, still love it. The story has its flaws but that’s final fantasy for you.
SybilVaneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is an actor you can't stand, but everyone likes?241·3 months agoJim Carrey anytime he does comedy.
Cotton pickin’ seems… Problematic.
Not in a good way but: “crying never solved anything.” It might not be a full solution but it sure is a relief. Still can’t cry to this day without feeling guilty about it.
