folks i need help. the conditioner that i have been using for the past few years (aussie moist) leaves an absolutely absurd amount of gunk in the shower. it does this no matter what shower i use, no matter where, east coast, west coast, so i'm pretty sure the problem is the conditioner and not the water itself or something.

does anyone have suggestions of conditioners that don't leave gunk & residue in the shower?

i'm reading that non-comedogenic conditioners might help but google otherwise isn't being helpful so i am at a loss. there's just SO MUCH.

my hair is very long & thick & matts absurdly easily so using less conditioner isn't an option

#i spent hours scraping it off with a KNIFE and i have to do this every month. it also clogs the drain and stuff. #shower cleaners are not effective even bleach barely works so knives it is #and i am so sick of this

Re: lady wanting to have sex w a dad. Judging from the context he’s clearly old enough to be your dad. I would honestly recommend not doing this, I had two experiences with guys in that age range. One when I was 17 turning 18, this man was a divorced 53 year old lawyer, and his eldest child was only a year younger than. He just fingered me under a table and we kissed, couldn’t go any further because it creeped me out that he was lawyer and I wasn’t even fully legal and he was still willing to be a pedophile despite studying the law (and I assume the reasons why certain laws like age of consent are the way they are in our country, where I’m from at that time I wasn’t old enough to consent).

The other time was when I was 19 with a 44 year old, he was never married and had zero children. This man was very emotionally stunted. He ranted to me about his life, how his friends took advantage of him, how he’d only been in love twice, how he’s the child of rich parents but never really had the chance to self-actualise.

He also gave me 200g of weed. I smoked his weed from a vape, and was almost out of it by the time we started having sex. The only things I remember were hallucinating that my dad was outside the window shouting at me,,,hearing the James Blake song he was playing and freaking out because it felt like the song was crawling into my ears, and having to be on top of him for a very long time because he had some type of erectile dysfunction so he had a tough time finishing. The next morning, woke up in his bed and he wasn’t there. I left his appartement, texted him hoping for a text back but he never messaged me again.

Extremely regrettable experience, and it really sucked the life out of me. Don’t really have anyone else to blame but myself and it feels like a shadow that follows me everyday. I am just talking about my experience with guys in dad age range, but when I was 17/18/19 I did also sleep with guys in their early 30s — they were all stunted in some type of way and also very controlling. Never been with a married man before but I think that would just make things more complicated. Granted I’m only 20 now, and I imagine this experience would be super different for woman whose 26-30 sleeping with 50yr old guys. My dad’s girlfriend is 27yrs old (he’s like 56), and their relationship is a shit show tho; this is a woman he cheated on my mom with and they now have a 2 year old baby that neither of them raise.

My current boyfriend would also go onto shame me for this for over half a year as well, and it turned into a focal point for really all of our worst arguments. So can’t really say it’s had a positive impact on my life at all, but I think it’s also one of those things where if you’re an adult and you have a strong desire to do this, you probably will. I suppose just go through it, and see for yourself, your experience could be super different from mine.

I recommend daughters of fire/as filhas do fogo (1978), the book of stone/el libro de piedra (1969), at the meeting with joyous death/au rendez-vous de la mort joyeuse (1973) and the perfume of the lady in black/il profumo della signora in nero (1974)

thank you!! haven't seen any of these <3

looking for good ghost movies pre-1980. if not literally ghosts then strong themes of haunting and memory and the undead and maybe implied or arguable ghosts.

#the older the better but i've seen most of the older ones c. 1930s/40s

"We oppose the new wave of Islamophobia, such as the brutal murder of a Palestinian American 6-year old and assault on his family in Illinois, USA, and the equating of any criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism. At the same time, we also oppose holding all Jewish people all over the world accountable for the politics of the state of Israel and we condemn anti-Semitic violence, such as the mob attack on the airplane in Daghestan, Russia. We also reject the revival of the “war on terror” rhetoric used by the US and EU to justify war crimes and violations of international law that have undermined the international security system, caused countless deaths, and has been borrowed by other states, including Russia for the war in Chechnya and China for the Uyghur genocide. Now Israel is using it to carry out ethnic cleansing.

Call to Action

We urge the implementation of the call to ceasefire, put forward by the UN General Assembly resolution.

We call on the Israeli government to immediately stop attacks on civilians, and provide humanitarian aid; we insist on an immediate and indefinite lifting of siege on Gaza and an urgent relief operation to restore civilian infrastructure. We also call on the Israeli government to put an end to the occupation and recognise the right of Palestinian displaced people to return to their lands.

We call on the Ukrainian government to condemn the use of state sanctioned terror and humanitarian blockade against the Gazan civilian population and reaffirm the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination. We also call on the Ukrainian government to condemn deliberate assaults on Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

We call on the international media to stop pitting Palestinians and Ukrainians against each other, where hierarchies of suffering perpetuate racist rhetoric and dehumanize those under attack.

We have witnessed the world uniting in solidarity for the people of Ukraine and we call on everyone to do the same for the people of Palestine."

i genuinely cannot stand americans who claim to be too upset to read/watch/listen to the news. they SHOULD be upset and uncomfortable. staying up to date with the news is literally a basic part of adulthood, at least staying informed of the state of major countries in the morning is the very bottommost standard at being a real person. apathy and turning a blind eye isn't how compassion or protection works, you are just sheltering yourself into a bubble of passive ignorance because you cannot immediately satisfy your victimhood/savior narrative over this issue that doesnt pertain to you

I haven’t seen this linked on here so: this is an awesome resource for how you can help the people in Palestine. It has donation links, helps you figure out how to contact your representatives, and a regularly updated list of planned protests. It is USAmerican centric but the list of protests is international.
