This is why i'm doing Ombre. I can't afford to go to a salon regularly for dye touch ups. My belief is that if I go ombre, then as my hair grows it's not a big deal. Here's the vision:

This color:

And I want it to flow like this:

I have 5 more weeks until I'm finally done with my college degree, but I don't wanna do work. Like no, I don't wanna read about copyright law in my communication law and ethics course, I wanna walk around outside in the beautiful spring weather (ofc I'm gonna do it because I literally have my cap and gown and it would be embarrassing to fail this late in the game).

Also I get my hair done next week: dying my hair an ombre burgundy! Be prepared for a hair post when it happens. I've always wanted to dye my hair a fun color.

I look to the fabric make up. When I worked corporate, Banana Republic and Express had a lot of clothes that suited me, but I ended up working remote and am now a full time student, so clothes is about balancing comfort, ease and quality. I used ThredUp to thrift an oversized (for me) Gap Denim jacket that was 95% cotton, and I pair that with the T-shirts I've accumulated over the years and either my fleece lined Athleta leggings for the winter or PopFit leggings for warmer months.

I uninstalled Pikmin Bloom after the news that they're being sold to the Saudi company (the damage is likely already done as I was a day 1 PoGo player), but when I get an Android phone in April, I would love to contribute.

I can still place a hold on Libby and it looks like you can still buy the book. She just can't promote it. It's all weird. I wanna read this out of spite.

 

(Books count as Entertainment, right? If Zuckerberg has no haters, I am dead. Currently waiting in line for this book on Libby as I type this)

Meta Platforms META.O on Wednesday won an emergency arbitration ruling to temporarily stop promotion of the tell-all book "Careless People" by a former employee, according to a copy of the ruling published by the social media company.

The book by Meta's former director of global public policy, Sarah Wynn-Williams, was called by the New York Times book review "an ugly, detailed portrait of one of the most powerful companies in the world," and its leading executives, including CEO Mark Zuckerberg, former Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg and Chief Global Affairs Officer Joel Kaplan.

Love it! Hands being two different colors is always a good time

There is such a thing as glass dip pens (I had one and was too rough with it, so it broke :') ), but I like using fountain pens that suck up ink via a spring or piston filled mechanism. I only fool around with fountain pens because I like playing with fun ink and being a weirdo. This is my TWSBI Eco (Fine nib) inked with Noodler's Cardinal Kestral.

Some would argue that there is a proper grip to hold fountain pens, but I found that the normal way I write is good enough. I always enjoyed writing in cursive, and I take a lot of notes (prayer journaling, getting my college degree, writing out my thoughts, etc.), so fountain pens indulge those activities.

If you like going down rabbit holes, here's a blog post to learn more: https://www.jetpens.com/blog/The-Beginner-s-Guide-to-Fountain-Pens/pt/927. #twsbieco #fountainpens (idk may this reach the fountain pen people elsewhere in the Fediverse so they can add more)

Honestly, I feel that unless nails are noticeably missing chunks, it's never that bad! Purple is rad!

Shaping is very tedious. but I try to keep things the same shape. I keep hearing about stickers. Might have to take the plunge one day.

Aw, RIP! I hope most of the color is intact!

Black is literally one of my favorite colors, so I'm all for it. Also I hope your cat loves their cuddles and doesn't bite (too hard/often).

Hi! I'm newer to the Fediverse and brand new to Beehaw. I've used Reddit for years, but I'm seeking greener shores as big tech has gotten real weird.

When I'm not reading, attempting to be a guitarist or fooling with fountain pens, I like to paint my nails! Do I color in the lines? No. Do I do a perfect job? Also no. But I pick fun colors and always, always, always add glitter. Did you color your nails? I wanna see!

(Side bar, I low-key wish the Fediverse had more places for beauty inspo. Let's see pretty nails, hair and outfits, please!)
