You should refer to her as her nickname, Rory, since they’re both Lorelei.

Freya stole my girl, you hoar!
I would welcome getting to turn down the volume of my sensory issues. It causes more distress than acceptance can fix.
Wait wait wait wait wait hold on.
I was not raised Catholic so I don’t understand.
Isn’t the Pope supposed to be infallible?
I mean not for real because *gestures broadly*.
But isn’t it doctrine or something that the Pope is god’s word on earth and is thus infallible?
If so, that would make this apology quite strange, right?
Good luck emigrating unless you can afford those countries that let you buy residency.
Props to anyone who has successfully moved to another country because eegads that is not an easy or quick process.
But girls are gross! We can’t let our city streets and parks be sissies!

I literally made this mistake 3 weeks ago. Worst oatmeal ever.
I have always been “non-traditional” looking. When I was young and skinny I don’t think I was ugly but certainly not conventionally beautiful. Now that I’m older I am certifiably “meh”.
The expectation to look pretty (for men) is still there even if I don’t meet the criteria for their attention. I still feel the societal pressure, I still feel bad about my appearance when I’m not serving male gaze ideals. It doesn’t just go away even when you’re disqualified from personhood for being ugly.
I’m hoping becoming an old biddy will release me from requirements and I can feel free.

Oh snap!
Hey! It doesn’t need to be your closest national park.
Is there a term for this “live, laugh, love”-esque pop psych BS?
Absolutely do NOT recommend. Also avoid Home advisor or whatever it is, the WORST contractors are from there.
No idea. I get ecstatic over mediocre contractors who barely gouge. We’ve genuinely just started DIYing almost everything because if it looks “okay, I guess” then at least it didn’t cost $8000 and I semi-learned a new skill.
Edit: our best contractor was from a random Google maps search for handy person. I picked a relatively new business with few reviews entirely because they were the only ones to call back. But they worked out great and I was happy with the work.
I think it is honestly trial and error.
Edit edit: the vibes you get from the in home estimate are helpful. If they don’t try to upsell you at all, hire them.
In fact, the aforementioned best contractor we ever hired told me not to contract them to do something because it was a really simple to DIY. They showed me the exact kit to buy and told me how to do it. Theoretically he could have screwed himself out of money but we decided to do a bigger job than originally planned because of that move.
I reckon we either are or are descended from changelings. All of the downsides of fae ancestry and none of the perks.
It itches and causes a rash that gets worse with prolonged exposure. I can’t even tolerate surgical steel and many gold “hypoallergenic” pieces because those bitches still use nickel as part of the alloy.
It’s in all sorts of things. Buttons on jeans, zippers, tools, wire, eyeglasses, and obviously jewelry.
It takes an hour or two of direct contact to start itching and getting raised bumps, less time if it is low quality metal like uncoated wire or something. Prolonged contact greater than a few hours leads to sores and it gets really really itchy and gross from there on out. Stupid jeans.
How people deal with it is just avoid metal things as much as possible because you never know if nickel is mixed in. For metal jewelry you can pay a pretty penny for higher purity metals with a much lower concentration of nickel (hard to be completely nickel free due to natural impurities) or just wear silicone/resin/leather jewelry.
Jeans though…those buttons are gonna get you. Most people paint the inside button with nail polish but that shit rubs off quickly. I just make sure I’m wearing at least 2 layers of barrier fabric between my skin and the jeans (1 layer can be pretty permeable).

She’s basically wearing a Gibson girl hairstyle. The pompadour is held up with a ring of something like foam or a hair rat, which is hair in a sort of netted tube sock thing. The rest is just swirled and tucked with extra hair pieces for fullness.
