How her drawing abilities change throughout the years
 in  r/nextfuckinglevel  Apr 30 '24

Have you tried art since ? When I was young I drew ALL THE TIME. Then by high school/college I had completely given it up and would never have called myself an artist. Then in my 30s I picked it back up because a friend took me to a "paint your pet" thing where they guide you on how to paint a picture of your dog or whatever. And holy shit my skills .... I just painted what I saw and it came out amazing/something I would have only dreamed of being able to do when I was young. I always thought it was just practice practice practice but for me at least , I just needed a more mature mind ? I'm sure I could be even better if I'd never stopped but also just the passage of time honed my skill level

What movie’s visual effects have aged like milk, and conversely, what movie’s visual effects have aged like fine wine?

Ash vs the Evil dead though , all the practical effects look AMAZING compared to modern CGI

Stained the deck grey today. Wife hates the color and wants it brown. Can I just paint over or do I need to sand down again first?
 in  r/DIY  Apr 26 '24

Just paint the house cool toned colors. Very strange y'all thought grey would look good with the brown and beige

Sex differences don’t disappear as a country’s equality develops – sometimes they become stronger
 in  r/science  Apr 24 '24

I am a female engineer , 95% of all the honors classes in high school were female and I was honestly surprised so many engineering students were male when I got to college. Anyway, I went engineering mostly for the stable career and it comes easy to me. If I was a billionaire that didn't have to work I'd be an artist.

How do you handle a partner addicted to p*rn?
 in  r/NoStupidQuestions  Apr 17 '24

That's a long difficult road. Now that I'm a littler older and wiser I would personally say, don't waste any more time on him unless he really shows that he wants to change. My husband did have some porn problems when we were first dating and it took a couple fights and a few talks but he did immediately show effort and overall was resolved fairly quick (over a yearish). It didn't affect our sex life other than it made him take much longer to finish which was annoying (and that came from physical desensitization) and it made me feel insecure. Now, he still masturbates any day we don't have sex and he has a huge folder of porn of me/us that we've made together. That helps mentally, and he keeps a looser grip or uses a fleshlight and uses plenty of lube. Our sex life gets better each year we're together and we've been together 13 years. It was also on me to mature about it as well and understand that men do need that visual stimuli and so the porn that we made together turned out to be the perfect compromise.

The red sunglasses is a white nationalist reference.

And the Hawaiian shirts, those are a boogaloo thing

New panel WAY too bright, not sure if I can use it even with black out goggles
 in  r/redlighttherapy  Apr 13 '24

The manual recommended 15cm and I have been sitting probably 12-18 inches from it , when I'm not facing it I feel fine sitting closer and since I'm just starting out I've only been doing 6 minutes. But I will move out a little more. And so, I have wrapped the blackout goggles in foil and added cotton pads to them per another's comment and that has helped , I still have to keep my hands up to block part of the time but I am able to drop them for a little bit as I do think my eyes are getting used to it.

Never beating the "never seen a woman before" allegations.
 in  r/Gamingcirclejerk  Apr 12 '24

Despite what I've heard about men being able to discern a woman's form from her outfit, I've had only the opposite experience. One example is I wear looser fitting clothes to work, but if the men see me in a different setting with a more form fitting shirt on, they will ask if I lost weight. And I mean, idk if it matters but I'm petite already, just a weird thing to ask but I guess they think I'm taking up my entire clothing at all times

Disappointed in my friend

It's been really hard since roe v Wade was overturned I've lost a LOT of friends!! But no friend of mine would ever force me into an unwanted and/or dangerous pregnancy.

$514 , I was trying to get the Maxpro 600 I believe but they were out of stock and suggested the 900. The 600 would have been cheaper

Is there something I can use that will definitely block it from my eyes ? Using the blackout goggles it came with and closing eyes does nothing, it still hurts to face it.

I've read others comments before about how it's not so much that they expect "deflation" but the correction of price gouging. Those are still separate in many people's minds. Yes inflation is a natural good thing that happens on a consistent trend but the alarming price spikes from the pandemic aren't going away and that's what's confusing.

Have any adverse effects actually been caused to people due to the dyes in American food and drinks?
 in  r/NoStupidQuestions  Apr 06 '24

Yes, agree. I don't get sores but drinks with red 40 will give me a burning sensation. It's like the European Fanta is a delicious carbonated orange juice with natural opaque orange color and the American Fanta is like glowing never-before-seen-in-nature orange. Would Americans really scoff at the European version ?! It's so much better!

What's something you thought all women do, but turns out they don’t?
 in  r/AskReddit  Apr 06 '24

It's like swallowing a loogie!! The only way I can swallow is if it's positioned in the VERY back of my throat. If it is in the front of my mouth and would have to cross the tongue to get down, NOPE

He’s just… Being a good dad?
 in  r/facepalm  Apr 01 '24

Again, no one is upset honey. Just trying to help you become a better communicator. You don't seem to understand why people misinterpreted what you were saying. Inference is not on the recipient, your words have meaning beyond what's in your own head.

 in  r/facepalm  Apr 01 '24

No? You essentially said ' I only have nephews so we won't be doing tea parties' which reads as you viewing tea parties as a gendered activity. A way to phrase it that would read how I think you wanted it to would be "I only have nephews and they're not into tea parties". No one was upset or judging, they were just pointing out that tea parties can be for everyone.
