Do you want to create a connection with someone that could transcend even until the end of this coming break? I do.

[INDEX]
I banked the fire and stared into the golden eyes of Beatale before I crept into my makeshift tent.
I still had my auric vision running and couldn’t help but notice the thin silver cord that ran from me to Horse. Firming up my aura, I reached out with my hand and grabbed it. I could feel the nearly imperceptible vibration between my fingers as I used my mind to probe at the thread. I could feel a bright spark of intellect, a light at the end of a tunnel. Pushing with my mind, I slid down the thread until the spark grew larger and eventually filled my inner vision with a hazy white light. Horsey thoughts nudged at me curiously.
I slid into the haze and immediately lost all sense of direction. If it wasn’t for the silver thread, I’d have no idea how to exit this shifting white fog. Horsey thoughts got stronger as I followed the thread while the haze thinned and cleared to reveal an endless prairie of green grass. I found myself standing before a naked man wearing a horse mask and I stared in shock. It was obviously me wearing a cheap costume horse mask — there was no mistaking my tattoos.
“What did you expect?” Horse neighed at me. “I am you and you are me and we are all together. Goo goo ga joob.”
Horse made a shooing motion with his hands and I accelerated backwards through the white haze and slammed into my own body with a gasp. I stared at the tarp overhead for a long minute, processing this new revelation. Horse was a part of me, a piece of my spirit. Whatever psychic stuff I did with that silver cord lead me into a house of mirrors where I got to look at myself pretending to be a horse. I can’t even deal with that right now.
Rolling into my blankets, I dropped off to sleep.
*Ding*

I banished the pop-up and looked around. I knew I was asleep, but everything was just as real as when I was awake. I was breathing, I could feel the floor under my feet, and if it weren’t for the pop-up, I would have sworn I had been teleported. The room I was in resembled an oversized luxury prison cell, maybe a thirty foot cube. No windows. Rough stone walls with thick mortar. Large brass wall sconces were set directly into the stone and suffused the room with a warm, golden light provided by glowing rocks. The stone floor had colourful Persian rugs tastefully placed. A high plaster ceiling was painted with a rendition of Michelangelo’s ‘Creation of Adam’, depicting me as both Adam and God.
There was a comfy sofa in front of a large screen television that hung from one wall and an ornate grandfather clock ticked loudly in the corner. It was currently 10:08 PM. Another wall was a floor to ceiling bookshelf, stuffed with books of varying sizes. The third wall was covered with pictures and I could see at a glance that they were images from my life. The fourth wall had a thick riveted steel door on the right side, a full sized mirror on the left, and a computer workstation in the middle.
The picture wall was my first target. A few were quite large, nearly life sized, while others were tiny prints no larger than the palm of my hand. Scenes of my life were displayed in each one. The largest was me riding Horse with a shit-scared expression, shooting at a pack of wolves. Others were smaller, each with different frames. Some ornate gold or silver, others plain wood, a few wrapped in briars or barbed wire. Nanny Ramsey holding me as a young child. My dog Jean with a red ball in his mouth. My parents, screaming at me. I turned my attention to the books. Books are safe. Books don’t judge you.
The sweet, musty scent of a used book store filled my nostrils as I drew close to the honey coloured shelves. Hundreds of volumes filled the wall from floor to ceiling, with a ladder that could be rolled along a rail to access the top. I smiled at the sight. I had always wanted a library like this. I pulled a book at random and read the title, “Confused Fantasies about Joseph Harris, part XXIV of the Middle School Years”.
I slid the book back onto the shelf. Let’s see what’s on TV.
The remote was a slim, futuristic looking affair with a minimum of buttons. I pointed it at the television and moments later the huge screen came to life and presented me with a simple menu for movies, divided into six categories: Happy, Surprised, Afraid, Disgusted, Angry, and Sad. I scrolled through the offerings for a minute, reading the titles and reviews about the movies of my life. It really bothered me that there were so few selections in the Happy section.
The number of Sad movies increased by one.
I walked over to the mirror and noticed there was a small sticky note pasted to it. “Astral Realm. Experienced users only.” I shoved the note in my pocket and stared at my image. Sturdy black boots, black denim jeans and shirt with mother-of-pearl buttons, deep brown gun belt slung at my hip, red bandanna and black felt hat. All I needed was a pencil moustache and I would look like the stereotypical villain in any spaghetti western. At that very moment I decided to grow out a goatee. I’d rather be mistaken for a bad guy than a victim.
So how does this astral realm thing work?
The mirror appeared to be nothing more than a mirror. It was cold, smooth glass surrounded by a wrought iron frame, and reflected my image. I didn’t necessarily want to go walking into danger, but I wanted to know how it worked. I pushed and prodded the glass in frustration until I noticed my image grinning at me. I jumped back in surprise and it doubled over in silent laughter.
“Hilarious, dude. You got me,” I huffed. “So how do I get in?”
My mirror-self tipped his hat and stepped to side.
I reached up to the mirror again and my hand passed through, vanishing as if cut off. Okay, just a quick peek and we’ll explore the rest of the room. I stepped through and the world shifted around me. I was standing back at the campsite. My body was insubstantial as a ghost and the tarp was a wisp of substance running straight through me. Non living things don’t seem to have much presence in this realm. Glancing down, I saw my sleeping body rolled up in the blankets, a thin silver thread running from it to me, and another thread running to Horse.
Looking around, I surveyed the campsite. My astral vision seemed to be on and had an unlimited range. I could see the life all around me, the distant forest was a sea of greenish-gold, grasses and brush nearby glowed with spectral light. Tiny ghost insects scurried while ghost mice nibbled at whatever ghost mice nibble on. Ghost seeds and ghost insects, I suppose. I turned my attention overhead and gaped at the sight of a monstrous serpentine spirit flying through the inky void. I dropped back through the tent and rolled inside my body. That was plenty enough for now.
I rolled through the mirror and landed flat on my back, staring at the fresco on the ceiling. Vinnie-God winked at me and Vinnie-Adam grinned. Climbing to my knees, I brushed non-existent dust from my trousers and watched mirror-me doubled over in soundless laughter.
“Hey, laughing-boy!” I yelled at him. “You’re like the guardian or something, right? You got it covered?”
Mirror-me stood and saluted with a smile, then gave me two thumbs up. A moment later, his face took on a serious expression and he wriggled his right hand in the ‘maybe’ motion. Then he pointed at me, tapped his wrist, and then a finger to his head.
It all depends on how fast I learn stuff, I guess.
Two thumbs up and a winning smile reflected back to me.
A large cork board was mounted to the wall over the computer and a small note was pinned to it. “Note to self: Don’t fuck with the Elvish womens.”
The computer screen featured a screensaver of me as Vitruvian Man doing callisthenics over the words ‘HumanOS’. I tapped the spacebar and was rewarded with the sound of powerful fans kicking to life as the computer emerged from sleep mode and prompted me for a password. Should I assume it’s the same as the password on the computer I pawned in my previous life?
Password: *******esi
I was rewarded with a sweet R&M desktop and a couple of icons. System, NeuralNet, My-Tunes, My-Movies, My-Office.
System was just what I expected, lots of .dna files and other confusing scariness that allowed me to tweak my physical body and mental state. My-Tunes was a collection of every song I’d ever heard and My-Movies was a collection of every movie I’d ever seen. Not that I’m complaining, but it would have been nice to have “My-Games” so I could play RDR. My-Office was a clone of the popular software by a similar name. I have no idea what I’ll ever need a spreadsheet for in this world.
NuralNet opened up a search engine called Me-Seeks, featuring a familiar blue guy.
I typed in “beer” and several thousand results were displayed, anything I’d ever read, heard, or watched about beer, including how to make it. This right here made the price of admission totally worth it, access to an exact copy of everything I’d ever read, and I was a voracious reader. Sadly, most of the stuff I read was futurology — solar panels, electronics, biotech advancements, quantum computing. The material for steam engines, blacksmithing, farming and the like, were slim pickings. That’s okay though, I could still reproduce the Gutenberg press, the cotton gin, simple internal combustion engines, and basic batteries along with some sketchy knowledge of metal alloys, acids, bases, and other things I had read over the years. All that wasted time watching “How Things Work” was finally going to pay off. I copied a few likely money makers to My-Office, saved the file, and exported to my Notes, just in case they didn’t exist on Aerth.
A popup covered the screen.
📱 [New Upgrade Available!] 📱
🎉 Enhance Your Experience with the Latest HumanOS Features! 🎉
🌟 Features Include:
🔥 Special Offer: Only 2000 credits for version 2.0 or 5000 credits for version 3.0! 🔥
[Upgrade Now ✅] [Remind Me Later ❌]
Apparently I could upgrade myself, which reduced the cost of using my Utilities while providing other minor benefits. My Utilities would level up as I used them, which would increase their battery cost, so if I didn’t keep pace with an update to the OS they could become prohibitively expensive to operate.
Stupid pay-to-win world.
So, do I pay 2000 credits for version 2.0 or 5000 credits for version 3.0?
I selected version 3.0 and klicked [Install]. After watching it download the update, it popped up another screen that asked if I wanted to update now, or wait until Midnight for the mandatory update.
I selected [No] just as the grandfather clock chimed 10:30 PM. I wondered if time ran slower in here, because it seemed like I had spent a lot more time on the computer than 15 minutes. Walking over to the imposing steel door, I noticed a bronze key with a thin chain in the lock. There was another sticky note on the door. “Subconscious. Please keep the key with you at all times.”
That’s not scary at all, is it?
I unlocked the door with a loud clunk and pulled it open to reveal a bedroom straight out of some royal castle. I could tell immediately that it had seen better days. The tapestries on the wall were frayed and fading. The canopy over the bed had a few holes in it. A thin layer of dust covered the mantle of a small fireplace set into the wall. There was a window letting in bright sunlight and I moved over to look outside.
I was on the third floor of a keep surrounded by the walls and turrets of a modest castle. A castle that had fallen into serious disrepair. Did this represent the state of my inner mind? One tower was shattered and the curtain wall under it damaged. The lower bailey was full of litter. I could see a few soldiers walking around the allure, keeping watch.
I have people in my subconscious?
Someone behind me cleared their throat.
Whirling, I discovered a familiar old man standing in the door of the bedroom. What was left of his hair formed a white halo around his head, his face was unshaven and covered with several days of growth. He was dressed like a poor and tattered manservant, but carried himself with a dignified air.
“Woodhouse?”
“It’s nice to see the master at home,” He said with a proper English accent. “There are many matters that require the master’s attention.”
“Uh, sure,” I said, hanging the key around my neck and tucking it in my shirt. “And who are you again?”
“Your personal manservant, of course” he said with a slight bow. Walking over to the steel door, he pulled it closed and it locked with a solid thunk. “Master should always keep his inner sanctum closed. One never knows if something nasty will creep in.”
“Thank you, uh, Woodhouse. I’ll remember that,” I said, rubbing the back of my neck. “So what needs tending and how do things work around here?”
He smiled and beckoned me with a white gloved hand. “If master would be so kind as to follow me, I’ll introduce him to the staff and explain the duties and obligations of his domain.”
I’m 99.9% certain that everyone here is just me wearing a mask, so I shrugged and followed Woodhouse out of the bedroom and into the rest of my subconscious.
Five minutes later I was on the ground floor and seated on a shabby throne with the cast of a popular —and probably very copyright protected— animation in front of me. Woodhouse was the head butler and my personal manservant. Pam was the cook and demanded that I start importing sugar and alcohol before she was shushed by Woodhouse. Carol was a maid. Krieger was chancellor and Cyril was the steward. Archer and Lana were in charge of security. Ray was the marshal in charge of everything from the stables to the blacksmith.
I stared in disbelief at the motley crew kneeling in front of me. No wonder my inner mind was in such shambles. I was overcome with an irrational sense of anger at myself.
“Arright, listen up,” I barked, my voice echoing around the room. “I swear to God that I will fire every single one of you and hire circus clowns to replace you if you keep fucking things up. No joke. Circus clowns, got it?”
I ran a hand over my face as Ray pissed himself. “The only reason I’m not putting a boot in your asses right now is because I realise that you’re aspects of me, and the people you represent are pretty damn good at their jobs when they give enough of a shit to actually do them. As a team, you’re dysfunctionally fantastic and always seem to come out ahead no matter the odds.”
Heaving a sigh, I continued. “Things have changed and I need to get my shit together. I’m going to need every one of you to pull your weight and help me help you. Get back to your duties, I’ll meet you one on one later.”
My subconscious caretakers scurried out of the room.
“I’ll have one of the maids tend to the piss,” Woodhouse assured me.
“Never mind that,” I snapped. “I honestly had no idea my mind was such a shit show. I’m very disappointed in myself.” I pictured the Angry, Sad, and Disgusted counters on my personal movies clicking up. “Show me what needs to be done and let’s get started.”
During Woodhouse’s walking tour, everything clicked into place. This was some altered version of Bodiam castle, a location that was on my bucket list of places to visit. The royal council room, located behind the throne room, contained a “living” tapestry on the wall that showed the castle and surrounding land in real time. The castle was located in the middle of a small lake, and a single wood bridge led to the mainland. A small town surrounded the lake and a wall encircled the town. Outside the wall, the land was an irregular patchwork of forest and field, with a stinking swamp to the south. The entire “kingdom” was maybe ten miles across, surrounded by impassable mountains with innumerable creeks that fed the lake which drained into the southern swamp.
“Zombies are the problem, sir.” Woodhouse said, as I surveyed the living tapestry of my mental domain.
“Zombies?” I prompted.
“Yes sir, Zombies” Woodhouse continued. “Nasty bitey things that come in from the mountains and harass the peasants. They’ve gotten especially worse over the last few months. The soldiers do what they can, but they seem to have lost all motivation. Probably because they haven’t been paid.”
“And who pays them?”
“Typically chancellor Krieger is in charge of financial matters, although Steward Figgis has taken over the duty, sir.”
“Then let’s make Figgis our first stop.”
“Very good, sir.”
The office of the steward was run by Cyril Figgis, who managed the kingdom in my absence. It was overflowing with paperwork and charts, books and scrolls piled high on every flat surface. Cyril was desperately attempting to tidy things when Woodhouse and I walked in.
“Yo..you..your majesty,” Cyril stuttered, bowing low. Scrolls fell from his overloaded arms, spilling across the floor. He dropped to his knees and scrambled to gather them up. “I didn’t expect you to visit so soon. Please forgive the mess, housekeeping has been slacking…”
This was the guy who ran things while I was conscious.
“Shut up, Cyril” I said. “You’re responsible for everything in this office. That includes keeping it organised and tidy.”
“Y..yes milord.”
“It’s my understanding that you’re in charge of making sure everyone gets paid. So why aren’t we paying people?” I asked.
“We’re nearly out of Fuks, your majesty. I’ve been saving them for emergencies.”
“Fucks?”
“Fuks,” Cyril explained, pushing a pile of books off a large chest and opening it. Reaching inside he pulled out two small bags and emptied them on top of his cluttered desk. “Gold and Silver Fuks, the currency of the kingdom. I can’t maintain the kingdom when I have no Fuks to give.”
Behold the subconscious kingdom of Vincent J. Carter, it runs on Fuks.
“So how do I get more fuks?” I asked, examining one of the coins. It had an image of me on one side and symbol on the other that could be interpreted as “peace among worlds”.
“You kill the zombies, your majesty.”
Of course I do.
Woodhouse and I left Cyril’s office and headed towards the office of the chancellor where Krieger worked. It seemed that Cyril took over financial matters when Krieger became erratic and proposed luring all the zombies into the city and setting it on fire. Not sure how that corresponds to my own self-destructive behaviour, but I’ve had some dark thoughts over the last couple of months and I’m sure they’re reflected here.
Krieger’s office was much neater in comparison to Cyril’s, but it wasn’t by much. Shelves lined the walls and were filled with an array of questionable items, including a still snapping zombie head in a jar. While the office of the chancellor was supposed to be in charge of financial matters, it looked more like a dodgy rummage sale.
Krieger was launching sword blades at a pig carcass when we walked in.
“What exactly are you doing?” I asked, standing in the doorway.
“Hm? Oh, your majesty!” he said, turning around and bowing deeply. “I’m testing a new invention. It’s a spring loaded hilt that shoots sword blades. Very useful for our soldiers.”
“Stupidest idea ever,” I snapped. “I hate everything about it.”
“Okay,” Krieger said, tossing the hilt into a nearby pile of junk. “But don’t blame me when you need to shoot a sword at a zombie and don’t have one.”
“So why aren’t you managing the financial affairs? Collecting taxes, paying people, stuff like that?”
“Because the population has declined so much none of that matters?”
“What do you mean?”
“Wellll, the population represents things you care about,” Krieger said, going into lecture mode. “And the zombies and other monsters are real or imagined problems in your way. Since you don’t care about too many things the population has shrunk to just what’s needed to keep everything running on the bare minimum of fuks. And since you don’t seem to have any long or short term goals, there’s no need to kill off the zombies and get more fuks. Everything is fine just the way it is.”
“No, it’s not Krieger” I said, grinding my teeth. “My mind is in a shambles. It’s a joke. I want it fixed. No, I want it better than fixed. I want it improved.”
“Oh! I’ve got just the thing for that!” He said, digging around in his pockets, “It’s a spring-loaded hilt that shoots swords!”
Pam and Cheryl were hanging out a gallery window jeering at Archer and Lana sparring in the inner courtyard.
“What the hell are you doing!” I snapped
They whirled in surprise and then dropped into deep curtseys.
“Your majesty!”
I took a deep breath, trying to regain my centre. “Get to work cleaning this place up. Find a room, clean it, and move on to the next. Start with my bedroom, then the throne room and the council chamber, then everything else.”
Cheryl spoke up. “Can’t do it. We got no fuks to clean with.”
“You need fuks to clean?”
“Gotta buy stuff,” Pam said. “Cleaning supplies, food. You wanna eat, you’re gonna have to spend some fuks.”
“Talk to Cyril,” I ordered. “Tell him I said to get you supplied.”
They ran off in the direction of the stewards office.
I watched Archer and Lana bashing each other enthusiastically through the window.
Several minutes later the sparring couple stopped and bowed when Woodhouse and I stepped into the inner courtyard.
“Your majesty”
“My liege”
“Enough,” I said. “If you have enough energy to smash each other, you have enough energy to smash zombies. Tell me what I need to know so I can start gathering fuks.”
Archer shrugged and spoke first. “You just kill the zombies and other monsters. They drop fuks.”
“Anything special about the zombies?” I asked. “Are they fast? Do people get turned into zombies when bitten?”
“Nope,” Lana said, resting her wooden sword on her shoulder. “Most of them are slow shamblers and just need a good wack to the head to kill them.”
“Some are special,” Archer interjected. “Occasionally you’ll have some fast ones, or those that need holy water to kill. They’re just bad memories, figments of your personality that need to be eliminated. Some are worse than others.”
“The zombies are bad memories?” I asked, imagining all the bad memories that I had.
“Memories, thoughts, insecurities, metaphysical mumbo-jumbo,” Woodhouse supplied. “They are endless, but constant vigilance can keep them under control.”
“So let’s get started,” I said. “Lead the way.”
Lana and Archer lead me up to the parapet over the front gate where I looked over at the dozens of zombies milling about aimlessly in front of the entrance to my mind. Pulling out my gun, I began to pick them off, easy as shooting fish in a barrel. The crack of my spell pistol attracted more zombies and I dispatched them with ease until no more were left around the gate. As I fired each shot I could feel some sort of existential energy flowing from me, draining some hidden reserve.
“Gather up the Fuks,” I commanded. “And Lana?”
“Mi’lord?”
“There’s no excuse for this. From now on, I expect the walls to be clear of all zombies.”
“Yes mi’lord,” she said, giving me a small bow.
Turning to Archer, I shook my head. “You’re obviously my personal narcissism, so just try to stay out of Lana’s way, or better yet - try to kill more zombies than her. If you think you can.”
Archer scoffed. “No contest. I took top marks in sharpshooting.”
“That means I should expect to see results by tomorrow. I look forward to it.”
Archer looked panicked for a moment then smiled. “Sure, I can give you results.”
Turning back to Woodhouse I said “Show me what else need attending.”
Woodhouse led me through the town that represented my mind, pointing out each business that had fallen into disrepair, suggested others that needed improvements, and additions that would benefit me. In the distance, I could hear Lana and Archer shooting at the crowd of zombies and with each echoing shot I felt a tiny bit better about everything.

2024.06.01 13:06 Content-Gold-2828 Failed on doing dutch braid🤭

I tried braiding for like 3 hours straight today. I wasted too much time. I know how to braid from the bottom of my hair but somehow can't do scalp. I keep forgetting on what to do after braiding my scalp + I don't know how much hair I should take while braiding my scalp and took random chunks of my hair. I did not know what to do when there is a big space between my scalp and the braid🤭 So I ended up braiding my hair at the bottom only😭😂
Is there any tiktok/youtube video that can help me? I have curly hair btw

2024.06.01 13:01 convolutionality Help, tiny wound but is it a keloid forming or just healing?

First pic is now, second is on Monday. It’s been two weeks since I dug a deep and bloody hole on my boob trying to get a weird ingrown hair out.
I cannot tell if this is keloid tissue even if small or just normal healing but it’s been two weeks. It’s not raised but it’s filled in the hole I dug.

2024.06.01 12:28 throwraFrequentRow2 Considering if I may have been dating a narcissist?

Considering if I may have been dating some kind of narcissist?
Ok so, I’m only just considering the possibility that I was dating some kinda narcissist.
I met a guy from online dating. Exceptionally Handsome photos, very smooth and charming. We met in person and immediately and him got on exceptionally well. He was the most intelligent man I’ve ever met in my life, on dates he wanted to talk at length about intellectual topics.
Despite getting along well, this is where the weird behaviour came in. When parting ways on dates, after the date he was very distant. He would send a long formal message, not check I got home safe.
He never lovebombed. But I’m considering if he is a cerebral narcissist for the following reasons
We went on several further dates. Mainly daytime dates. He would be very affectionate, hold my hand and kiss my forehead. He brought me along to meet his friends. Still amazing conversation. But I always felt like he was the one in control
He was always quite a stern stoic person, very unemotional. He cared a lot about his hair, often showing me pics of himself. Talking about his appearance a lot
If I stayed over, in the mornings I basically felt he was kicking me out, same thing if he stayed at mine he would want to leave early. He’d make me coffee, and his demeanour had completely changed. He would not cuddle me after intimacy. Then after the date, once again taking days to reply and sending formal paragraphs.
After the first time I stayed over, which was a lovely date. He went on holiday for 10 days and didn’t message me. When he came back, he was being extremely cold in messages
The next thing was interesting. He was fired from his job. He told me it was because he told them ‘you don’t know how to run a company.’ this made him quite stressed
But he still continued meeting me. Once again affectionate on dates
On the very last date, he cooked me dinner and we had a nice time. Though when he was cooking the steak, he went on for about 20 mins about the science and molecules involved when cooking a steak. It was cute but a bit much. He always referred to intelligent people as ‘people like us.’ And he always commented on my intelligence as a reason why he likes me. On the morning of the last date, he went on a rant about how he struggles to respect those he works with as he feels they don’t deserve the job. He also told me empathy is something he finds hard to feel
Things changed after this date and he was texting me all the time. Sending cute date ideas. I then asked him if I could see him on my way past for a few hours, he told me he was hungover. And sent a bit of a harsh cold message
2 weeks later, he ended things and said he didn’t feel romantic.
2 months later, he comes back to be friends. Took me to play golf, to a music gig. Was being very nice to me, sending supportive messages when I was at work stressed. Hugging me a lot and telling me how glad he is to see me. Texting me a lot.
Then he disappears again. Ignored my messages. It’s like he only wants to speak or see me on his terms.
So I considered perhaps he is narcissistic minus the love bombing. (I’m too clever to fall for love bombing he could feel)
He claims ‘I’m just like him but he’s more harsh.’

2024.06.01 12:27 Due_Measurement_32 Tips please, how can I transition back to a natural colour

Tips please, how can I transition back to a natural colour
I’ll give a little history to help with any advice anyone is kind enough to give. My natural hair is 50% silver grey and mostly white round my face. The rest of my hair is a medium brown with a lot of red undertones. Boxed died reddish brown most of my life so can be 100 percent sure of natural brown tone.
My original plan was to let the grey grow out and use direct dye in the interim any way that was ineffective and taking too long so I bleached it to make direct dye stick. Had vivid colours for about 3 years now, but the up keep is getting boring.
I’m think I am too old now (50) to go back to my old dark red/brown my skin is not the same as it was. I keep threatening to shave it all of and start again but my hairdresser say NO!
If I do bye it brown how will I get and even tone? Any suggestions on hair colour or sty,e will really help an indecisive me. First three are current hai then what’s underneath and the rest are historic pic.

Which hair looks best on me? Pics go from most recent to least
Apologies the first pics were a little rushed, I'm thinking of growing my hair out to the long length again and going blue or cutting it short like the pink again, it's so hard to make decisions IDKKKK

2024.06.01 12:05 lemontree3637 How do I care for my hair correctly?

Hello people of Reddit,
I don‘t know how to care for / style for my hair correctly, I feel like everything contradicts itself With my hair. I know I have Wavy/Curly hair But every time I do the CGM or use any product it looks Good for 10 minutes and after that my hair is straighter and flatter than it would be without Any Styling. It is also impossible for me to get a cast. But if I dont use any product or style my hair i look like a wet dog, my hair is super frizzy and my waves or curls have no Definition. I have a lot of white and frizzy hair on Top of my head and but if I apply conditioner or products Where the frizz is, it just weighs down my roots and my hair is super flat. So How do I do it correctly???
I attached Pictures: 1&2. my hair air drying on vacation, no products no styling (super hot and humid) 3. CGM looking Good for 10 minutes 4. frizzy white hairs

2024.06.01 12:01 Beautiful-Cake-6502 What’s my hair type?

What’s my hair type?
Hey, I am wondering what type my hair is? Is it like 2C or is it in the 3s or is it less? This is 2nd day hair! I’m not sure at all. I’ve just come on my curly hair journey after treating my hair like it was straight for yearssss? Any tips to make it more consistent curls and curlier? I’ve got a curly hair cut 3 weeks ago to chop off the damaged ends and that’s already helped a lot!! My current routine is curly shampoo and conditioner, will use a hair mask on my second wash day of the week (might needs suggestions as the one I have is tony and guy bond repair, I think I could use better), then after shower I keep my hair sopping wet, will add more water too as I’m adding product, I use curl cream, gel and mousse but I find my curls become limp sometimes or some curls just don’t be curling! I then plop my hair in a hair towel or t-shirt then I use Dyson supersonic diffuser on low heat and low pressure and then lastly oil to get crunch out… any tips or product suggestions (I’m from New Zealand so hopefully products I can find here would be ideal but not necessary) on what can make my hair curlier and need advice to know my hair type so I can watch curly routine of people with my type of curls as I tend to watch people with curlier hair who don’t really need to encourage their hair to curl! 💕

2024.06.01 11:35 Visual_Ability_1229 lord Venkateswara Part 2- detailed description contd.

this is a continuation from my earlier post .
my objective is to make accessible information in the greater public domain. much of what I am saying is available in public, but obscure or not present in one single place.
Main Idol overview -
the MOOLAVIRAT or DHRUVA beram, the subject of all legends and debates.
the level of detail is really extraordinary. fingernails, toenails, striations in the skin folds, and attention to detail to every ornament is seen.
all ornaments in front view continue on the back side. full 360 degrees. mostly on the back, are the strings and knots of the ornaments , all integrally in the idol. the hair locks, also have very tiny crevices, looking like real hair, especially in dim lighting.
there is another unique problem that all of this creates - it sounds silly but only people who are worshipping idols in temples would know.
normally, during ritual baths, CUrd ( or yoghurt ) is a key ingredient.
what most people don;t know, is that curd is very very hard to clean up afterwards .
it gets stuck in tiny crevices, and eventually the room starts to smell really bad.
in tirumala, the practice is to NOT use curd, and just stick to milk and various versions of water.
the real reason for that is the exquisite features of the idol. no amount of cleaning is enough to fully bring out all the curd. so a long time back, decisions were taken to stop using it. (again lot of debates on it and lot of controversies jumped out of it)
Curd Iis used now , for all the other smaller idols, where it is easier to clean up later.
Main Idol - dimensions
there are confusing reports about his height ranging from 6 feet to 12 feet. all are false. numbers change based on how he is measured.
he is 8 feet tall, if measured from foot to top of crown. the crown is 20 inches approx. (based on size of the gold crowns made for him..all of them 22 inches to accommodate padding)
the lotus base (Padma -peeta ) is estimated to be 18 inches.
but an idol is always measured with base included. this brings the total to 9 ½ feet , as the pedestal is always counted. but in reality , when we go to the temple today, we are standing standing above the height of his feet, so we would see 8 feet of his majesty .
these are all estimates and could be wrong by a couple of inches.
also, the dimensions of the sanctum sanctorum are 12feet 9 inches x 12 feet 9 inches. square. this is available in public domain. nothin secret about it.
in the Agama, among the GarbhaGrihas, this is the largest sanctioned dimension, only possible for a very tall mula virat.
*(we need to again remember- this extraordinary idol, was exposed to the sun and moon for centuries, surrounded by elephants and lotus ponds and venomous snakes , before a human being even came into the picture. its really hard to imagine him just standing there in the forest with a smile on his face , for a thousand years, before a temple was made out of wood ( yes literally wooden temple - more on that later)
his waist is estimated to be around 24-27 inches (depending upon exactly where you measure it)
his chest is 42 inches ( some serious bodybuilding goals for men - forget the old-NTR like chubby looks)
his arms circumference for the armlets is estimated to be 19 inches.
overall, the appearance of a youthful strong tall man.
now each body part -
feet - the feet are spaced apart at shoulder width. they are extremely well-formed, having even toenails. there are toe-rings on his toes, and then there are 2 varieties of anklets on him. 1 looks more like a feminine Dancer kind of anklet ( I dont know the right word for it) . the second one is more masculine and like a thick strong ring around the ankle.
the lower body cloth (peetambaram or dhoti) outline can be clearly made in the idol, resting near the anklets. its folded into 7 layers as we move upwards to his waist. on the backside, it continues and is neatly tucked into the small of his back. there is one very interesting observation here..... the knot and tucked in-dhoti on the back looks like the hood of a cobra. senior priests say it is symbolic of kundalini.
note: no actual cobra figure appear on the idol. I am only talking about the lower garment folded in such a way. this I have actually seen on other vishnu idols in iconography books on agama. I'll share a pic here of similar feature if I can.
normally, there is no gap in a stone idol , between the feet . rock is there to preserve the stability of the idol. but here there is a hollow, and a garment can be passed under to dress him.
there is also a decorative Vastram draped on this sides, beautifully knotted on both hips. its pleats gently fall down on either side.
as we move up, his two lower limbs are strong and bulky. the calves are particularly bulky, very strong from the backside.
strong massive thighs can be made out from all sides. the kneecaps are very prominently visible.
his posture is almost straight.... with a small tilt to the right side (his right side) . as such the right knee is slightly bent. overall, he stoops very slightly fowards, as if just about to step out of the pedestal. this is hard to observe after all the heavy ornaments and garlands.
I will talk about the more technical description of his posture by using sanskrit AGAMA terminology in future posts. this was intended for people who are not familiar with highly technical jargon.

I went to vavoline today to have my cars oil changed and I could NOT stop LOOKING at this FINE piece of meat, anyways- can someone please do some PI investigating and find him for me? My anxiety will never let me go back up there to talk to him and I couldn’t really do much at the time bc they were legit 4 cars backed up by the time I was finished. He caught me gawking at him and then gave me a look after… It’s the vavoline off of Brandt pike by Krogers. He was tan- tall- slender- curly hair- beard & mustache that connected- tattoos- brown eyes- and a hoop earring & no ring on his left finger. Listen- lol. If someone can find this man’s socials I will literally pay you. I’ll pay you $20. Don’t judge me. 😂

Need some suggestions, just cut my hair. Please read.
I'm 25. I grew out my hair for like 5-6 months from a undercut so that I could hopefully do a longer hairstyle. I went in for a wolfcut but obviously you don't get what you want. I ended up with kinda like a modern mullet it was my second choice though.
My hair is straight and thin and I always had heavy hairfall it's getting worst now with age. 1) Would I be able to pull off a wolfcut?
2) Is the haircut I have now, good? Or better than a wolfcut on me? (I will be cleaning up the beard a little since it kinda looks a bit messy now)
3) Or should I revert back to my undercut hairstyle which is the same as above but with the fade on the back as well.
Any advice/feedback appreciated. Thanks!

2024.06.01 09:32 meemoomeep13 Should I bleach my uneven faded hair?

Should I bleach my uneven faded hair?
I had faded Arctic Fox Aquamarine and freshly bleached hair 3 inches from my roots.
I dyed this 2 weeks ago with Arctic Fox Ritual. Got everything even despite the base difference.
It’s just that. Now nothing is even. Lol.
I was planning on dying it Wella Nu-dist pink (picture 3) once it all fades.
I was wondering if I should just keep doing what I’m doing now (clarifying shampoo etc) OR do I bleach bath it? If I bleach bath it I plan to process my right side (picture 2) first and then my left side (picture 1) in attempt to make it all even?
OR do I let it all fade until everything is sort of even and then bleach bath it in attempt to get it back to blonde.
It’s no rush though. I just wanted to go pink before I go brunette in October.

2024.06.01 09:28 Dae_Lightt How do I manage my hair?

How do I manage my hair?
I’ll try to keep it as short as possible but probable Long post ahead; My father has straight hair and mother has curly hair. I am 15 and have know I had somewhat wavy hair for a little while but I didn’t know there was anything I could do about it, before then I was constantly brushing my hair desperately to make it stay straight. I had a 10minute timer and every ten minutes I’d brush out my hair until dry in hopes it wouldn’t puff up, frizz up, and make me look like a cone head. I thought my hair was just too think that when I brushed it, it made it look like a lions mane. It didn’t work. Around 11yo I was begging my mom to not make me brush my hair because the knots were insane and my hair was ugly afterwards and she said if can just brush it in the shower she’ll let it slide so that’s what I resorted to until a year or two ago when I could manage it better on my own. ANYWAYS. All that ramble for back ground; a while ago I saw someone do a routine on themselves and i loved the results. Another long story shortened: my mom said I could try her curly hair routine so I did and I don’t think it would be classifies as curly but I definitely had very wavy hair the first time but at one point in the photos above it seemed like it’d be considered curly. My mom doesn’t know how to help me with it so I am taking to here for help, BASICALLY, I was wondering if I should just stick to doing whatever my mom is doing or if I’m supposed to get my own wavy hair routine, it usually lasts two days before it falls out enough that I just brush it out. I think my goal is to make it last longer, get the most curl/wave possible out of it, and in general what I can do to keep it healthy (because I have the worst tips you will ever see, like split ends and it’s dry and yucky all around), and pretty. Is there any magical hair genie out there with some advice?? (The imagery is in order of the first time I did it until the most recent time)

2024.06.01 09:24 Amazing-Big-8087 this mugshot. a personal brainrot essay

this mugshot. a personal brainrot essay
violently rattling my cage. foaming at the mouth. blurry vision. violent in nature. knawing at the bars of my enclosure.
i need a psychological analysis on him soley focused on why he didnt keep just the mustache and his hair groomed like that, this was peak (physical appearance) jeff it is an utter shame he didnt recognize that enough to keep the look
his barber was COOOOOKING im not only saying this bc its jeff like im not dramatic like that (this essay is completely rational argue w the wall) but he was a solid 9.5 in this “era”. giving these looks to a serial killer was a fuck up on mother natures part cuz im already knowing he was pulling looking like that
my memory is permanently shot bc i smoked too much ganj my sophomore year but i remember only the feeling of the first time i gazed upon this photo and it is something no man can recreate with acting alone. trying not to sound like a 11 year old girl on wattpad rn but brother. i had a Physical reaction. eyebrows raised dropped jaw Euphoria is a word i can use in this documentation of the event. a heart palpitation. a jolt in my stomach. dare i say this mugshot made me realize i am not a lesbian.
i can rationalize myself with this visceral reaction by stating additionally that i do have a thing (i say with great unfortune) for blonde men, curly hair and pornstaches but i could take a public servey about the matter and id say 9/10 individuals attracted to men would consider this to be a modelling agency entry headshot.
as one would aspire to one day be as attractive as megan fox my personal aspiration is to come even close to mogging the entirety of that county jail as jeffrey dahmer did on august 8th-[whenever he was released google wont tell me the date] 1982. no bullshit this is a man i would have to take a double take at if i were to be in the same public setting as him.
an honorable mention is also the version of this mugshot with his glasses on although i dont include it bc he looks a little geeked up (in a silly goofy way) in it but id say its more cute than generally attractive.
to sum my essay up into a conclusion since k-12 has taught me that i need an outro to have a scholarly body of text this mugshot is one of divinity. the face of a man who could pull a straight married man. a thing of dreams and fantasies. the side profile of a greek god and the face of your last jobs overly attractive coworker. 1982 jeffrey dahmer indecent exposure charge mugshot your image will echo triumphantly through time.

2024.06.01 08:59 alltradesv Help me analyze new videos for interesting numbers

Help me analyze new videos for interesting numbers
I’m rewatching the new videos after not seeing them for a few days and was struck by some interesting collections of items / numbers of occurrences and I don’t know if they’ve been talked about yet. I do not have all the answers to what they could possibly be, but thought that through some collab and discussion, some of you could help decipher whether any of them mean anything or not.
Note that these are things I noticed in a few select videos, and I’m sure there are more, so please add some of you have any other ideas, too!
Routines - 13 and 8 - counts of paint cans in two of the rooms (first two pics). 13-14 flowers - can’t completely tell for sure.
The paint cans seem significant because all the rooms and shelves are empty except for these (and the cloaks / flowers). As has already been discussed, there are also 8 bishop cloaks in the closet behind Tyler, and 1 behind Josh while he’s drumming solo.
Interpretations for the paint cans: 13+8=21 - kind of an obvious link, I guess. 13 is the number of tracks on Clancy, with 8 bishops still living at this point of the lore, but the 8 is already represented by the cloaks. Because the cans are in separate spaces, maybe something else is at play.
Navigating - bandito formation at the end - 38 total flames in groups of 3 + 1 (big fire) + 34
Numbers don’t really stand out much here, but this one feels a bit too intentionally placed to be nothing. Maybe it’s actually a graphic of some sort but I can’t figure out what it might say/mean. I tried east is up, but not seeing anything obvious. And again, maybe nothing!
Snapback: 2/2/2 and 9 - the items behind Tyler as he gets his hair cut.
Interpretation: I’ve seen 6/9 floated as the possible release for the Paladin Strait MV before, and there are 3 sets of 2 items (shoes, boots, and propane tanks), totaling 6 items to the left of Tyler, and then 9 planter pots to the right of him. Again, compared to the rest of the space, this feels quite intentional, so I’m voting that this one is an important date.
Oldies Station - 25 - no picture of this one, but we see Josh move the PVC pipe across the camera 25 times (or presumably across it when the shots are of him running). 23 of these happen before the guy pulling the rig falls, the last 2 are the “BTS” shots at the end where we see him pass the pipe in front of the lens twice more.
Interpretation: this one is the most talked about lately - 25 shows up again! Lots of folks thinking something extra will be coming on June 25.
Anyhow, it’s late and I’m sure I missed a bunch of details, but I appreciate any convo or thoughts on the topic of number hunting in the new videos!

2024.06.01 08:39 Puhthagoris our longhaired PICA boy, but we still love him none the less

our longhaired PICA boy, but we still love him none the less
he loses his mane in the spring and summer. turning three next year.
he has pica pretty bad. he will wonton dive bomb any hair tie that we forget lying around. any drawstring on your shorts? forget about it. toys that come with strings? cut them off or else he will cut them off for you.
the worst was when we almost had to get his stomach pumped(last pic). before we realized how bad of a problem it was he would sometimes get into our food cabinets. He got marshmellows and bread but we didn’t learn our lesson there. one morning my girlfriend woke up to get ready for work and saw a bag of coffee beans spilled on the ground and him just starting to throw up. we took him to pet er and they induced vomitting. he probably ingested at least half the bag(think starbucks coffee beans bag).
we learned our lesson and figure out a way to lock the cabinet.
thankfully he doesn’t go for shoe laces or electrical chords of any type.
he also tried to eat a rubber toy that you stuff with cat treats.
we got him as a baby rescue from the shelter. he is our second cat and he is best friends to our first cat.
