Post your inspiration

Note: There's already a Thinspo Thread, but it's 2 years old and it turned into "if you don't like Snejana Onopka's BMI 14 body, you must be a fatty!", so i guess it's okay to make a new one.

Jess Buettner is a huge inspiration for me. we're the same height, but she weighs way more than me (muscle), and she's strong as all hell

she competes in tested powerlifting, and while i do not think that she's 100% natty (i'd guess she abuses her insulin she gets for her T1D and might have taken some other stuff as well), she's still insanely talented. and there is SOME doping in every professional sport obviously, like i don't think any high level powerlifters are lifetime natties

if i ever got to even 75% of her looks and lifts, i'd be insanely happy

No. 588814

Personally I use a Tangle Teezer or a Wet Brush paddle, but they all have the same function as a denman and same for all the other hyped up detangling brushes. I feel like they can be pretty harsh on fragile hair textures, so I always start my detangling with a wide tooth comb and my fingers. I only use a detangling brush at the end after all the big knots are out.

This is a thread for biologically born women who decided to transition or play a part in the gender scene at some point and since have decided to stop. This thread welcomes women who chose to take hormones, have surgeries done, crossdress as a man, live as a man (on the internet/irl), or simply once thought to transition and then refrained from it no matter how far/not far into the process you were. Women who self identified as nonbinary or similar can also join the discussion.

Talk about your journey from transition to detransition and how it is going for you now.

I posted upthread about my experience with panoxyl and specifically said I wasn't trying to be alarmist because I myself didn't believe the hand wringing until it happened to me. Why you chose to bring up BP and claim actual, substantiated research is propaganda idk. I had bad experiences with BP, stopped using it for over a year, bought a fresh brand new batch and had the exact same problems as before. It may not kill you but it's worth it to pay attention when using it and making sure its new and stored in a cool place. I didn't believe the mongering at all either.

No. 589796

>>589776
I wasn't speaking about you specifically or trying to attack you personally. I saw the study you were talking about and it talked about how benzoyl peroxide needs to be refrigerated from manufacturing until it reaches the store. It was the first one that came into my mind and tbh i probably could have mentioned chemical sunscreen paranoia instead, because i do think there is some valid concern about benzoyl peroxide being transported in hot conditions, but i saw so many crunchies using the situation to say all skincare has this problem and obsessing over benzene to an excessive extent, as if the smallest bit is going to kill you on the spot. Many people won't read the part that benzoyl peroxide is fine as long is it is kept in ideal conditions and i've seen articles make insane claims that this same situation is true at room temperature, which was found to be untrue. It's possible that you may have gotten a bad product, but i can assure you that benzene has a very strong smell and you would have been able to notice it even in small quantities. I know because i used to work with it in a lab. Hope this provided clarification.

No. 589817

>>589796
Thanks for clarifying, sorry if I sounded abrasive. I love panoxyl for underarms but I got strange symptoms when I used it regularly. I switched to glycolic acid. I prefer panoxyl but I began to notice my heart would palpitate after a few minutes of having it on my underarms, and this is with no prior conditions and I've never had my heart noticeably palpatate like that otherwise. I started to feel like I was being a paranoiac until I stopped using it for like an entire fall, winter, and spring and then when I started up use the palpatations happened again within a couple minutes of being applied under my arms. I don't advocate for it being banned or anything but I find that a little alarming personally and once again after stopping BP I have had not a single noticeable concern. I'm not crunchy but I think there is a trove of misinformation on both sides, you've got your goop freaks that say everything is harmful with some truth and then you have people who debunk their claims using info and sources just as small, unresearched, and dubious. I agree with you about sunscreen but I choose to avoid BP which sucks because I really like it.

I can feel the damp leaves brushing my arms and my hands as we walk, fresh green smell heightned by the quiet of the night. I can see the milky way slashing the sky in half. He embraces me, arms crossing my collarbones as he kisses the top of my head and right temple. I put my hand on top of his arm, caressing it mindlessly while I smile. He doesn't have much arm hair, but I can still feel it lightly under my fingers. We let the moment hang, as he tighten his hug, insects and birds and reptiles performing their night songs. He says softly, close to my ear: "I'm glad you've made it." and I'm not sure if that or the chilly late mountain air made the hairs on my nape rise, but I'm glad I've made it too. I am the happiest I've been in a long, long time, to the point where it feels oneiric. And I shall never forget it.

Is your husband not watching your kid any? Also your husband is a complete douche if he'd stop paying attention to you just because of some mom belly.

For the majority of people, it is just a status thing. Personally, I don't hate lab grown diamonds, it's just that they feel much more artificial. I'd rather have a stone that formed naturally in the earth over billions of years than one manufactured in a factory over a few weeks, especially when it comes to something as meaningful and symbolic as an engagment ring. I much prefer other gemstones over diamonds anyway though, but if I had to choose a diamond, then I'd prefer natural for this reason. I also just choose natural materials whenever I can in general, jewellery aside.

No. 589661

Yeah it’s marketing as >>589651 said, using empty romanticism like in >>589656:
>feel artificial
>formed naturally vs “manufactured”
>vague positives while ignoring concrete negatives.
>appeal to greater meaning
Lab diamonds are objectively superior. Evil, lazy moneygrubbing businesses don’t want to lose out (even though they could afford to just change), so they push for it to be seen as worse. They’re formed in the exact same way and can be made both more flawless or uniquely beautiful. The companies want customers to focus on some anonymous mystical billions of years rather than the reality that an enslaved, poisoned and abused child extracted it for you. I find labs specifically better for symbolism and meaning since you can decide what they’re made of. Being able to make a diamond of any style or colouring using a loved ones ashes, you and your partner’s genetic material, your favourite flowers, anything, is far more symbolic and personal. They’re all natural and you can still use substances formed over billions of years if you can gather them yourself (fossils of a specific animal/region can even be bought online). Even materialistically, is it not more impressive to spend a lot of money on making a more existentially perfect gem for whatever use?
Exploitation diamonds are simply more ubiquitous and accessible but it’s crazy when people shopping for individual stones can afford lab grown and choose otherwise. Then they’re lazily going for the less romantic option.

No. 589675

Aren't diamonds like the biggest jewelry psyop? They're kind of ugly if they're too big anyway, lab grown diamonds should just be industry standard if the industry cared about the blood diamond issue, but of course retards will want a "natural" tacky stone instead of the identical lab grown tacky stone even if that money is being directly funneled into the shitty war torn country's big "orphanage bomb" manufacturing industry.

Both are chemically identical so im not sure if inhumane child labour is worth the price jack up tbh. For diamonds (or any gemstones) it's better to look at the type of cut and colour. The type of scintillation and fire is largely determined by how its cut. Picrel is jannpaul, the most brilliant diamond cut afaik.

I got a funny feeling when reading your chart, not sure why. I can't tell if im reading it correctly so if another astrology nona wants to put their two cents in, please do. You’re in a weird in-between space right now, and it’s probably frustrating as hell. You’re carrying a lot emotionally, even stuff that’s not yours moon in Pisces, and it’s making everything feel heavier. You’ve probably had a tough time getting into a routine or feeling like you’re on top of your shit chiron in the 6th, saturn in the 2nd, and that’s not because you’re lazy, it’s because you’re learning how to work in a way that actually fits you, not just what everyone expects. Career wise, you’re not meant to play it safe. You’ve got a Midheaven in Sagittarius, which means long term, you’ll do best in something that feels free, impactful, or even a little unconventional such as teaching, creating, working with people etc. Whatever lets you move and speak your truth. Right now, it’s not about having the perfect plan, it’s about taking one clear step at a time and not second guessing every move just because the end goal isn’t fully mapped out.

Any insight on compatibility between my work crush and I? He has the exact personality type I like that I thought I'd never find a moid with (quiet, patient, intelligent, clean, polite, competent, hardworking, capable of both taking charge himself and deferring to you without arguing, etc etc). But I'm unsure about pursuing it because he's five years younger than me and still in college.
