  • It’s so stupid I was trying to find a makeup palette with “bloodstone” in it and it kept showing me insane bright blues?? There is a bright blue in that pallet which I eventually found, urban decay stoned, but it’s called Ojo so how tf it mixed those two up, a red and green duochrome and a bright metallic blue I’ll never know.



  • It’s not about being bisexual it’s about being afraid of being vulnerable with the person you’re trying to spend the rest of your life with. If you can’t be fully open and honest with them out of fear you’re not ready to be married, a life long commitment, at least not to that person who scares you. They might reject you? Then they’re not a good match anyway, give them the opportunity to make an informed decision. Don’t have it figured out? Ok, considering it’s not about being bisexual that’s not an issue they should still know you’re at a stage in your life where you don’t have that figured out yet. I think denying a potential life partner any significant information about yourself is not ok, it shows a fear of intimacy and vulnerability and it robs them of the opportunity to make an informed decision, none of those things are good for a life long partner to be dealing with.






  • I think you touched on a good point, cooking is often a generational skill, for different reasons - you were poor so your meals were cheap and made at home - you were poor so your parents worked too much and never had time or money for “real” food - you come from a single parent household and cooking for multiple people is too much to do daily as the sole bread winner. Or the other side of the coin, your family was wealthy enough so you never leaned life skills. I guess my point is there’s a lot of lifestyles that would require you to learn to cook, to some degree but not in a dedicated way taught by a competent home cook and a variety of techniques. I started cooking for myself when I was probably 10 because my mom decided she didn’t want to do it anymore and I was plenty competent at making poverty meals but I didn’t really learn “how to cook” until well into adulthood when I was the mom; I used a steak knife for everything, all prep work, until I was like 30, for example. Learning to cook well makes cooking a lot more enjoyable and delicious and it’s just not a skill that is being passed on because most of us are too over worked to do it and that’s been true for a few generations now.








  • The GOP barely exists now, because of Trump. This used to be a soft power game, lots of behind the scene back room deals. Obama even said corruption under Trump was better than before him because it was public, and in my opinion being done by incompetent idiots where before it was private and being done by very smart and very ruthless men. All of the real GOP has been slowly pushed out since the tea party came to power, if Europe was serious they’d be pointing to the tea party not Trump but that’s neither here nor there. Now it’s just a bunch of obviously stupid obviously incapable corporate puppets clearly unable to keep up the illusion that keeps the money faucets running. The GOP died and what’s left is eating its self. The real issue here is how obviously weak our left wing is, it doesn’t matter if our Conservative Party implodes if our “liberal” party can’t constitute something meaningful and long lasting. We need money out of politics now or the right will rise from the ashes cloaked in back room deals and run by ruthless competent men again.
