bing bong ask meme tell me about them please

Benji 1, 18, 39

Max 2, 12, 23

Archie 13, 17, 28

Putting this one under a cut!

Benji:

1. What’s the maximum amount of time your character can sit still with nothing to do?

“Rarely is there truly ever nothing to do. There is always something I can busy myself with. The only thing I dislike more than boredom is wasted time. Any time not utilised is time wasted. I can barely withstand five minutes without engaging in something.”

18. What embarrasses them?

“Oh. Wouldn’t you like to know.”

It actually takes quite a lot to embarrass him. Usually he’s the one embarrassing others because of this. It took him long enough to get over embarrassment to just wear the clothes he enjoys so he tried to not let anything get in the way of what he enjoys. The worst thing you can do however is be direct with him, he’s very flowery and indirect about things if you get what I mean. Calling him out on his bullshit works wonders too.

39. How easy is it for them to ignore flaws in other people?

“Name me someone who isn’t flawed! We’re all just trying to get by and do what we can, hard to be perfect when around every corner is someone trying to ruin your day.”

The answer is INCREDIBLY easily. He’s no saint himself. He’ll readily ignore quite glaring issues if you help him with whatever it is he wants done. Besides openly flawed people have no right to judge when they’re also working with a flawed idiot.

Max:

2. How easy is it for your character to laugh?

“Eh, not a lot of people are actually that funny.”

Max tends to steer towards dark humour as a coping thing, but not a lot of people find that shit funny. He rarely lets down his guard enough to enjoy the humour of those around him. It’s usually something really daft will get him going. Ya’know like when you send your Dad a funny animal video and he’s crying with laughter when it’s not really that funny? That kinda thing. Once you find that niche you’re in.

12. How do they deal with an itch found in a place they can’t quite reach?

“Sometimes if I’m lucky the mutt can sort it out, but not always. I gotta be careful on account o’ the whole, ya’know, claw situation. I shredded a shirt once trying to get to a spot on my back. Not my… Proudest moment.”

Max’s death is able to touch him at times, not constantly, but enough. Sometimes he gets lucky and it can sort it out for him! Personal back scratcher! Though if that won’t work he sometimes just fucking rolls around like a damn dog if no one else is around. Catch him rubbing himself on a tree like a bear and watch him run faster than you’ve ever seen in your entire life.

23. How does envy manifest itself in them (they take what they want, they become resentful, etc)?

“I’ve started tryin’ to just go after the shit I want. I’ve spent long enough not getting what I want from life I think I’m deservin’ of shit finally going my way for a change.”

Envy itself isn’t something Max struggles with often. He’s a former rich kid so he knows how the other half have lived and he’s pretty much over it at this point. Though he is incredibly resentful overall, he’s got a lot of unlearn and get over.

Archie:

13. What color do they think they look best in? Do they actually look best in that color?

“Oh, uh. Hmmmm. BEST? Oh man, that’s hard. I like most colours pretty equally… It’s so hard to pick a favourite… My Ma always said I look good in white… But I think everyone looks good in white! It’s WHITE! Hm. I think. I think it’s gotta be between turquoise or burgundy! But I don’t have much of either at the moment sadly…”

Archie hasn’t really been allowed to explore his options much fashion wise. But now he’s loose on the town there’s nothing stopping him from trying out new styles! He does struggle with picking a favourite colour though, his ideal thing to wear would be one of those colour block jumpers where each part is a different, bright colour.

17. Are they easily embarrassed?

“N…No… (10 second pause) Okay. Yes. I never used to get this flustered back home but out here in the dust it’s… A bit more. Intimidating. I know the wings are a lot but c’mon!! Quit staring!!”

The youngest of three Archie actually had a pretty thick skin back home. Especially being of demonic descent, people get pretty judgy. But that quickly faded getting out into the real world. With any luck he’ll build it back up over time once he’s a bit more used to it out in Red West.

28. Would they prefer a lie over an unpleasant truth?

“The truth is ALWAYS the best option!!”

Dealing with the ramifications of certain withheld truths, Archie wants nothing but the honest truth. Even if it hurts. Though it’s quickly becoming apparent that the truth is not something post people enjoy sharing around here. Archie only believes in lying for the bit.

How you should invest in your 20s – housesofinvestors

Introduction

Investing is one of the most important things you can do for your future. It helps build wealth and gives you a chance to really see how much money you’re making over time. But it’s not always easy—especially when you’re young! Here are some tips so that you can invest in your 20s:

Get rid of any high-interest debt

High-interest debt is the worst kind of debt, and it’s one of the biggest threats to your financial future. If you have high-interest debt, it’s time to get rid of it (or at least pay off as much as possible).

Here are some tips for paying off high interest rates:

Only use credit cards when absolutely necessary. If there’s anything about credit cards that makes me want to vomit—and I mean vomit—it’s their exorbitant interest rates. The average APR on a 30 day introductory balance is around 19%. That means if you carry a $10,000 balance with an 18% APR, then every month alone adds up to almost $1,200 in interest charges! And who wants those kinds of monthly payments? No thanks! Instead make sure all purchases are made cash or debit card so that no one has access to any information about them except themselves (this goes double if they’re trying buy something expensive).

Avoid taking out new loans until after graduation day because even though borrowing money now doesn’t seem like much trouble now since everyone else seems so successful at doing this stuff without owing anyone anything back yet either end up paying huge amounts later down road when things go wrong due lack knowledge about how best manage finances during early twenties years where risk taking behavior may increase significantly due lack experience gained beforehand.”

Invest in what you know

Once you’ve completed your high school education, it’s time for the next step in your journey: investing. This may sound like a daunting task, but there are plenty of ways that you can invest in yourself and make sure that you’re doing things that are right for your interests and goals.

Investing in yourself means investing in what makes you happy—whether that’s dancing or playing tennis; volunteering at an animal shelter or helping out at an art gallery; collecting antiques or making music with friends. It also means putting down roots (literally) by moving out of home or getting married so that one day when those kids come along they don’t have to move away from their family again because their parents had big dreams but couldn’t follow through on them due to financial constraints.”

Buy term life insurance

Term life insurance is the best way to protect yourself and your family, since it protects you against the death of someone else.

Look into a Roth IRA

If you’re worried about paying taxes on your income when you invest, a Roth IRA is a great way to keep the money in your pocket—and out of the hands of Uncle Sam.

A Roth IRA can be opened by anyone who has earned income and reaches age 59½ (or 60 if they are disabled). The maximum contribution limit is $6,000 per year ($5,500 if married filing jointly). The IRS lets you contribute more than this amount if you have earned income above that threshold; however, there won’t be any tax deduction for doing so.

The advantage of opening an individual retirement account (IRA) is that once it’s open, contributions made into them don’t count toward taxable income until withdrawn or used for other purposes—so long as they aren’t withdrawn within five years after being deposited into an account

Don’t chase returns or hot stocks

When you start investing early, it’ll pay off later on in life

When you start investing early, it’ll pay off later on in life.

Investing early helps build a good foundation for your retirement. You can start with a small amount of money, and it will grow over time. This means that if the market goes up or down during the years that follow, you won’t lose everything because of bad timing or an ill-timed purchase (such as buying high and selling low).

Having more time to make up for mistakes is great! If something doesn’t work out as planned—like trying out an investment strategy that doesn’t pan out well—you’ll have more time before having to get rid of all those investments so they don’t take away from other things like rent/mortgage payments or student loans repayment plans..

My Opinion

When you start investing early, it’ll pay off later on in life. It’s important to remember that most of these ideas are things you can do today while still working a job and having fun! If nothing else, this article should give you an idea of what type of investments might be right for your specific situation.

What is it that you only know when you become a boss?

I have opened a small company for 13 years, the maximum number of people more than 40 people, the minimum number of 3 people. Earned, lost, say the following experience.

Small companies all rely on the boss, do not count on employees.

Personal ability to be very strong to open a company as the boss.

The boss should be involved in their own company to the various positions of various things know everything, what will do, and do a good job.

Do not spend energy to manage, train employees, spend energy on the daily specific work on each thing.

The boss's responsibility is to ensure that every day every thing is a very high degree of completion, each thing try not to do smash, employees can do, they do not do, employees do not do well, to take over their own dry.

Finance to pay attention to, the boss to develop good financial habits (such as accounts receivable and payable, look at inventory, look at the statements, look at the bank details), the beginning to use financial software, there are financial system specifications. Wages are higher than any, but also to hire a brainy point of finance, finance staff can not save money.

make money do not rush to expand, first buy a house, first to their own way back.

immediate money is reasonable, if your company is currently making money, do not feel that the staff is unreasonable, the model is unreasonable, etc., as long as the money, do not blind optimization, do not move. On the contrary, the company does not make money, there must be a problem, even if the company seems everything is reasonable.

When making money, pick a good resume, reserve one or two powerful employees, when losing money, do not expect to change a few powerful employees to save the situation.

must not let themselves suffer inside the company, hold back, must be inside the company to show all their own face to the fullest, to put it bluntly, is to let yourself smooth, only you smooth, you can be the best spirit to fight. Do not care whether you these behaviors are weird, reasonable, your feelings are greater than everything.

Don't think about the company to open a large listing, this is an extremely small probability event, open the company is to make money, is a career, to ensure that you earn more than you go out to work on the line, the money to earn hands to do. First earn to the rest of your life worry-free, and then mention what incentive plan, development plan.

Business is bigger is the moment to make heroes, not heroes to make the moment, so the business is bigger is actually opportunity rather than hard work. When you find an opportunity to come, really money automatically to your pocket, you can expand under the scale, otherwise, can not take the money earned to blindly expand.

The boss must be good at selling, signing orders. Whether you are technically born, management born or sales born.

customers to grasp the large and small, customers are fine rather than the amount of large, high-quality customers are the key resources of small companies, to spend energy on quality large customers.

credit business, prefer to give up or introduce to others, take some rebates do not do it yourself.

partners must find you look on, do not settle for. As for how he sees you, another story.

Speaking of integrity, responsible, establish their own reputation within the company and outside. Must not be dishonest for the sake of a little interest, to avoid responsibility.

Learn to integrate resources to do things, learn to leverage the strengths of the individuals and companies you know, pull in together to do a certain business, more to introduce resources to each other, so that friends around the development as much as possible.

social skills must pass, not to say that the people, at least the medium above, otherwise it is recommended not to be the boss.

Do not borrow money to develop, do not loan development. If financing, do not sign an awesome betting agreement.

Do not easily engage in research and development and open factories.

Don't capital pressure too much, capital pressure too much more than a year, hurry to lay off staff and break arms, or the more deadlocked the more dangerous.

Meet more people in the industry, develop contacts, maintain a resonant network, do not superstitious relatives, classmates, resonance is the basis of the network. No resonance hurry to change the next.

old products if you make money to insist on selling, do not make money to cut, look at the industry's new products, if you have energy, must be with the new products in their own industry, with the hot.

Do not fall into gambling and drugs, do not do illegal things, do bad things never say to others know.

To have a friend who understands the law, the company is now opening more and more legal disputes, the legal reserve is imperative.

Do not work too hard to trample the body, health is the boss's first priority, your body a collapse, the company will soon collapse.

After earning almost money, less money are fine, body, mood, family life is more important, do not pull out for money, do not blindly expand, at this time, you can consider giving employees greater incentives to increase their initiative, you can consider waiting for opportunities, you can consider going out to strengthen social looking for big opportunities.

expansion, must first have a general and then a soldier. Don't blindly recruit soldiers without the right will. Never recruit people who need to be trained, prefer to spend more money to recruit mature ones. Recruiting people is expensive in the fine rather than more, try to find the powerful, rather than recruit less people. The team must have the lead old staff, otherwise try not to recruit new people, first smooth out the old staff mentality before recruiting new people.

If you want to engage in research and development and production, you must reserve three times the money, set aside double the time, because it is extremely easy to get out of control.

You are one of my new favorite writers so I thought I’d ask you. Which do you think would be more traumatic for my female MC in a story I’m working on? It’s going to be pretty heavy either way so I’m going to have to come up with a whole new pseud.

Storyline A: She runs away from her strict religious community with a sort of antiheroic drifter she falls in love with and starts having consensual sex, but she’s only 15 and he’s about 25. (It is post apocalypse so no police or laws.) Then about a year later he is killed and she grieves. But thanks to him she is a badass fighter when she runs into a warlord who tries to capture and rape her. Instead she kills him and frees all his captives, one is a young man who becomes her new love when she nurses him back to health.

Storyline B: She never went with the drifter guy because he thought she was too young, she still grieved him when she found out he died. But because she refuses to marry any of the men in her community, she is still a virgin at 20 when she is kidnapped, kept in a cage, threatened with mutilation and raped by the warlord who she thinks is physically hot, but hates. Eventually she escapes and kills him similar to storyline A. The young man is the same only this time they fell in love while they were both captives instead of after she rescued him.

I am going for maximum angst/whump factor here so which would be worse?

TW: discussion of SA and how it can be written ethically or unethically, including examples

So my answer is going to be a little complicated here, because I can imagine two things that you may mean when you talk about writing these scenarios. The first is that you plan to have actual, on-page sex between these characters (side note: please don’t describe that as “consensual” in either case because a 15 year old cannot consent, but I hope you just mean that she technically agreed to it so I’m gonna skim over that part and give benefit of the doubt that it’s just a wording issue). Anyway, in that case, I would not consider this fic to be ethical in either scenario, because it can potentially create material for real predators to read and enjoy, no matter how it is framed. We have to be a lot more careful with SA than with other kinds of whump. Especially a direct, onscreen account of her being physically attracted to the perpetrator…that’s something I don’t see any need to put on the page, and both your scenarios include that.

I would suggest looking at BG3’s Astarion Ancunin as an example of how whump related to SA can be handled respectfully. Astarion’s backstory is that he was a vampire thrall compelled to do sex work against his will for 200 years and probably (though it’s never stated outright) assaulted by his master too - a huge and horrifying amount of sexual trauma. We see him have nightmares, lash out, struggle to trust people, struggle with physical touch, struggle to differentiate his real sexual pleasure from his sense of obligation, and much more. There’s a huge list of heartbreaking scenarios that can be used as inspiration as Astarion deals with what he’s been through. I go feral thinking about Astarion - the angst is so heavy and the healing is so cathartic and I can personally relate to it. A lot of his story was influenced by his voice actor, Niel Newbon, who is a survivor himself. But at no point are Astarion’s experiences of SA directly shown. They don’t need to be. The suffering that comes from SA comes primarily from the way it messes with a person’s sense of bodily autonomy and how they relate to their own desires. No one needs to know what the body parts are doing.

Okay, second thing you might mean: you already plan for both of these to be backstory or offscreen events and you will focus on how those experiences affected her (so basically I just lectured you for no good reason lol). I think the first storyline is more cohesive, because it shows her rescuing someone else who is about to go through similar trauma to what she just experienced, and she gets to do what she wishes someone had done for her, saving her former self in a way. To me, cohesive emotional arcs makes whump more satisfying whether or not it’s the worst possible thing that could happen. I would say that an emotionally impactful scraped knee can feel more dramatic than a whole year of saw-style torture, because for me, whump is all about catharsis. How does the catharsis come in? How do repeating themes show up and what do your characters take away from that? What empowers them to feel that things can be different this time around, or what makes them feel doomed and hopeless as events repeat themselves?

Even then, I really have to stress that this is tricky material and creating a pseud doesn’t negate the potential harm you could do, it just takes away social consequences. Tag appropriately, look at accounts from real survivors if you haven’t experienced something like this yourself, and carefully consider what you’re trying to say with this fic.

Thank you for enjoying my writing and for reaching out. It means a lot to think that I am a favorite writer for someone!! I hope this didn’t come off as harsh - I always try to explain this stuff just in case someone hasn’t thought about it. It’s an issue that's close to my heart.

How to recover lost bitcoin? Contact Us - 1888-230-9455

While Bitcoin spent the last decade soaring and making millionaires out of many people, other owners of the world’s largest cryptocurrency have missed out. Why? One major reason: they’ve lost access to their account. In fact, more than $100 billion in Bitcoin is estimated to be lost – but some is recoverable, says at least one firm.

A 2017 report from Chainalysis, a forensics company, estimated that between 2.78 million and 3.79 million bitcoins have been lost. That’s out of a total of nearly 19 million circulating today, and a maximum supply of 21 million tokens when Bitcoin is fully mined. At the high end, that could be about 20 percent of today’s supply that is gone forever. Or is it?

Traders who have lost access to their Bitcoin or other digital currencies and assets may have the ability to recover them, at least with the help of one high-tech firm.

Bitcoins may be recoverable

Bitcoin’s vaunted security cuts both ways, preventing the bad guys from getting your stash but also – and often – you, too!

One of the most highly touted aspects of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is their security. Not only are they nearly impossible to counterfeit, but transactions are almost irrevocable. Once someone has your bitcoins, they own them for keeps. It’s a similar situation if you forget your password, it gets tossed out as part of a move or you throw away a hard drive holding the coins.

But Chris and Charlie Brooks, father-and-son founders of CryptoAssetRecovery.com, have been recovering Bitcoin and other digital assets since 2017 for people who have lost their passwords, despite the high security.

“We estimate that about 2.5 percent of that approximately 20 percent of lost coins could still be recovered,” says Chris Brooks. The figure amounts to as much as $4 billion in recoverable assets with Bitcoin trading near $44,000, he says.

Of course, not all digital assets are recoverable. Corrupted hard drives or those that were thrown away are likely gone for good. But Crypto Asset Recovery says it has a decent chance of getting your lost loot back if you had encrypted private keys but forgot your password or if you had a failed hard drive with private keys.

However, even if you have a wallet and they are able to pry it open, you may not have any coins in it at all. Former Bitcoin owners who dabbled in the cryptocurrency years ago may simply be hoping that they had long-lost treasure left on that old hard drive but weren’t certain and decided to have a look just in case.

“About half the wallets we crack are empty,” according to Chris and Charlie.

How your trapped crypto can be retrieved from a locked digital wallet

All kinds of digital assets could be trapped on a hard drive somewhere – Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin or any number of popular cryptocurrencies. But also increasingly trapped are NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, which might be digital art, a collectible, music or something else. These are all potentially recoverable.

The typical success story at Crypto Asset Recovery involves “an early Bitcoin adopter with a Blockchain crypto wallet,” says Charlie Brooks. These wallets are more than half of what they see. An early enthusiast may have purchased a few coins and then forgotten about them. But now with a single bitcoin trading for big money, even just a few coins could be a nice haul.

Once they’ve been contacted, Crypto Asset Recovery consults with customers, asks their best guesses for passwords and gets to work. Even if you only know part of your password or have a general idea of what it might be, the odds of accessing your lost crypto assets go up significantly.

From there the team tries to “brute force” your account, trying all kinds of potential passwords based on your suggestions.

“We might run tens of millions to hundreds of billions of password variations before we get it, or we decide that it’s not worth putting more computational resources into it,” says Chris Brooks.

Watch out for scammers advertising asset recovery services

Given the sensitive nature of the work, you may have to trust an asset recovery firm with potential passwords to your crypto account, which you may also be using elsewhere.

The promise of getting access to your lost bitcoins may entice even the most cynical owner to let down their guard around those who promise to help them retrieve their money. That’s easy to do if you may have hundreds of thousands, even millions of dollars, locked in a digital wallet somewhere.

But officials caution consumers to carefully verify any asset recovery firm they hire. Many supposed firms are simply scammers who access your account and then run off with the proceeds, if they can even access your account. They may ask for a fee upfront to do the work, with the promise that you’ll eventually get your cryptocurrency and then run off with that cash.

The scams are highly sophisticated, according to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Scammers may even issue press releases and fake testimonials that seem to vouch for their asset recovery services.

Officials point to several red flags that consumers should pay attention to:

• You’re charged a fee before any services are provided.

• The physical address for the firm is not provided or it’s located outside the U.S.

• The firm does not have a phone number and you’re asked to communicate through chat apps.

• The firm asks for your bank account details so that the recovered money can be deposited there.

Those are some of the most important signs, though the CFTC offers other warning signs and tips to stay safe.

3 common ways crypto traders lose access to their coins

Cryptocurrency has grown immensely popular over the last few years, and it’s a trendy trading vehicle for many young people who are new to investing. A recent Agnacy survey revealed that nearly half of millennial Americans were at least somewhat comfortable with owning cryptocurrencies. But regardless of age, crypto traders may be unfamiliar with the different ways these digital assets can be held, meaning they could lock themselves out of their account.

Cryptocurrency owners can lose access to their assets in a variety of ways, and here are some of the biggest.

1. Not fully understanding how custody works

Unlike traditional assets such as stocks or bonds that are always held for you at a brokerage, cryptocurrency can be held directly by owners using a cryptocurrency wallet or a trading firm may hold them on your behalf. But this difference is crucial to recovering your assets.

If a firm has custody of digital assets for you, then you can work through its system to recover access to your assets. So it’s like a traditional investment firm in this way. You can verify your identity and the company will reset your password, and you’re ready to roll again.

But if you take custody of your digital assets, you won’t have that luxury. Unfortunately, many of those who are new to cryptocurrency don’t understand when they’ve taken custody of their assets and the responsibilities that entails. To access your self-custodied assets you’ll need your seed phrase, a collection of 12 to 24 words generated by your crypto wallet.

Because of the potential dangers of holding assets yourself, Chris and Charlie Brooks strongly recommend that those new to cryptocurrency sign up with a custodial wallet. With a custodial wallet, you could contact your trading firm and relatively easily access your cryptocurrency.

“Understand what is required to manage a Bitcoin wallet before diving in,” says Charlie.

2. Losing your seed phrase

People misunderstand the risks with crypto, says Charlie. “The much more likely risk for most people is that they lose their seed phrase – not that it’s stolen from a hacker, though that happens, of course.”

“The largest misconception that gets people into trouble is not understanding that the seed phrase is a representation of your private key,” says Chris Brooks. “If you lose that, you’re in trouble.” Many people don’t realize that the seed phrase is that important, he says.

The seed phrase unlocks your wallet as well as all your crypto in the wallet. So it’s vital that you maintain access to this seed phrase. “It’s not like a bank account with a password that they can just reset,” says Chris.

Moving is a really common time for someone to lose their seed phrases, they say, but there’s a simple solution.

“Buy a $30 safe from Amazon and store your seed phrases in there,” says Charlie. “You need a place to keep them so that no one will think ‘Hey, I need to throw this away.’”

3. Self-sabotage

“One of the biggest hurdles we face is that clients self-sabotage,” says Chris.

Self-sabotage occurs when people try to fix the issues themselves and only succeed in making things worse.

“About 30 to 40 percent of the folks that we can work with have hard drive issues from an old laptop,” says Chris. “They reformatted it or gave it away, for example.”

But the solution here is relatively simple: “Stop touching stuff – don’t reformat or reinstall a wallet,” says Chris. Resist the urge to try to fix something, because you will likely end up making it worse.

Bottom line

While it appears that a substantial portion of Bitcoin is lost to the sands of time, your crypto stash may not be a casualty. So it may be worth your time to see if you can recover your lost assets. And it’s certainly always worthwhile to understand what you need to do to correctly manage your account so that you don’t run into trouble in the future.

Sociopathic fascist?

The United States is currently facing It's greatest enemy domestic confrontation. From the trans to right-wing confrontation to a homelessness drug addict problem, to reparations versus reinvestment and the perpetual profiteering off of human suffrage. If Russia and China and the rest of the world knows what's good for them they'll just sit back and watch this powder keg explode.

I think there are some really simple solutions to our overwhelmingly insane problem.

#1 legalize all narcotics, contract reputable pharmaceutical manufacturers to produce all narcotics in a fully monitored and controlled fashion. State and Federal institutions would act as pharmacy / distribution hubs for narcotics. All distribution hubs would feature psychological professionals which would be required to interact with each patient before they were allowed to get there fix. List interaction was more of a way to gauge the habits of the individual when they were not present at the distribution hub. Mainly meant to identify potential threats to society and red flag accordingly. This would ensure we avoided the entire fentanyl crisis while simultaneously allowing us to identify users and provide the maximum amount of treatment options. This one action would render all cartels in South America powerless, provided that pharmaceutical companies adhered to their sourcing practices and were required to work with non-criminal based entities.

#2 I believe that Constitution states the fact that there should be a separation between church and state. This is an oxymoron. It was a pipe dream. Or a not fully conceived concept. For the reality is is when it comes to religion whether it's Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hindu, atheism, or homosexuality, It is a driving force in the individual for every factor of their life. They will be driven to want their perspective and beliefs represented in their government. We need to reaffirm the idea that we cannot please all religious beliefs, therefore as a group of varying beliefs, we attempt to put our beliefs aside for the larger societal structure and focus on the non-conflicting matters so that we have the most secure safe and prosperous society. We work towards accepting one another and not forcing our release down our fellow Americans throats. I believe we should kill all human beings. But I don't run around spitting piss in everyone's mouth.

#3 Hold our representatives and federal and state employees accountable. Poverty, suffering, homelessness, orphans, pretty much anything sad you think of has become a business. A business where it is more often more profitable to not solve the problem. This is one of the factors of our society that bothers me the most. That lazy greedy selfish people would rather collect a high salary and perpetuate a negative situation, then solve the problem they're being paid to solve.

Fuck you all. Have a great night.

WHAT IS IT: Make Up

THOUGHTS:

Ellana Mineral Cosmetics OG/BB Foundie in ButterMilk - More of a letdown but not a terrible product. First letdown (in terms of my bank account) is it is Php 999 OG price ($18.34), Second, it's not a lot of product (let me rebutt that later), Third, is the packaging, its travel friendly but at the same time not because the product is kinda liquid-y so it's prone to spillness. So now that's out the the way let me talk about the good. Not a lot of product but a little goes a long way! The shade if kinda off for me but if I put a good amount it's okay. I got kinda confused about the BB side because its more of a foundation for me I'd say medium to full coverage. I have to be honest there is still alot of product but I just don't see myself using it anymore.

Ellana Mineral Cosmetics x Project Vanity Eyebrow Pomade in Dark Brown - Last really long but the product itself is prone to drying. I drop it with an oil just to keep it from drying but if you're not using it alot, it dries. I tried to give it another chance but the product it way too dried up for me to use it, I can't even get a proper amount using my brow brush. I had to let it go unfortunately. But great product if you're the type who does their brows everyday, this product will not fail you just watch out for the drying part.

Happy Skin Face the World Air Serum - Shade: UNKNOWN lol. Don't quote me on this but I think it's one of the first local brand that released a liquid face base. Doesn't really clarify what it actually is but I think it more of a skin tint. The shade is really close to my skintone even tho they release just ONE shade of this! They discontinued this product and for good reasons. Now I may not know the real reason behind why they stopped producing it by my hunch is that it didn't really do good in the market. Little back story: I believe they released it the time when not a lot of people invest in face bases (foundation, skin tints, bb creams) what's hot in the market back then was lip tints or lip products. The reason people did not invest in this is because the OG price is Php 1299 ($23.85)!!! Crazy! And not very inclusive to the pinay/pinoy skintone. I did not buy it the OG price I did got it on sale for Php 299. I remember this was manufactured in 2017 but I had it for a long time because out of all my face bases this was the closes to my skintone when I found another product from another brand I had to dispose it. *Just an update on this brand since it's 2023, they have kinda rebranded they have a ton of collections still great products, still hits and misses. But when they release a foundation/skin tint, it’s still not shade inclusive like other local brands who can release 9 shades minimum then expand it later on but this brand still releases 5 shades maximum. This is a very well known brand here in the Philippines but please do better.

Detail Cosmetics Contour and Blush Palette - I bought this waaaayy back 2016 or 2017 I believe. I mostly used the contour/bronzer shade because cream/liquid blushes were a hot hot thing back then (up until now) but powder blushes are making a comeback since last year 2022. It was cheap, it was chalky for how some people would describe it. A lot of fall out. But it was a nice beginner friendly palette because it has instructions on how or where to put in the product.
