I hate boomers with a passion. Majority of them have this existential dread that the world is forgetting them and want to impart their 'wisdom' on me.

I had just completed an intensive 5 days of volunteering and the father of one of the event organisers managed to hear about my chosen career field and despite not being in that field he decided it was best to waste 20 minutes of my time as I was trying to go home to tell me about how to be 'successful' filled with the standard tripe and platitudes about humility and hardwork.

Like shut the fuck up. For one, plenty of people get places by being arrogant lazy pricks, two don't think your special simply because you ended in the upper class because of your stonewall values and three you have no right to my time simply because your older than me or being the father of the person who gives me orders, especially when I'm a volunteer.

I wish the altfashion scene in my country was more creative instead of everyone buying the same made in China stuff and copying exactly what they see people from other countries post on Instagram. Both Jfashion and Western alt communities are like this. People actively discourage each other from trying to make or alter anything themselves because they can just buy everything from Taobao resellers or Killstar instead. I feel so envious of the people in those old school lolita street snaps because I’d really love to be part of the creation of an entirely new street style, no matter how frumpy it starts out as. Even when they’re wearing brand instead of handmade you know those brands were nearly all super small and novel at the time. All the tiny boutiques in my country either sell the same trendy mainstream looks you see everywhere else, or “unique” pieces from large alternative brands that you can get cheaper online.
I’ve been on the lookout for DIY fashion communities but all I can find are 1) normie hobby seamstresses who dislike anything that isn’t extremely normie and mainstream, 2) hippie hobby seamstresses who make everything (and I mean *everything*) out of felt, are at least twice my age and think vaccines implant mind control chips in your brain or 3) historical/Ren Faire costume makers who make really beautiful things, but only as costumes to wear to special events and never as fashion.

I have no idea where the kind of people I’m looking for hang out, physically (pre-Corona) or online. I wouldn’t even mind if half of them looked like hot messes, as long as it was a hot mess they came up with themselves instead of copying it from someone online. This is probably super weeby of me but I really wish my country had the equivalent of a (pre-tourism) Harajuku district.

Compliments go a long way when you first meet people. Show an interest in some people and ask them questions. People love talking about themselves. You can also bring up any mutual interests you have with them. And if it's really awkward, you can always reach out to the person who invited you and get to know them a bit better, too. If they've invited you to the group, they probably have some sway, so getting closer with them will automatically make you more part of the group.

There was this donut shop my mom and I went to, that had these machines that made 12 donuts at once. There was an optional 13th donut you can get, which was always marked with the letter Z. There was an old couple who owned the shop. For some reason, they always talked about these stories of children who got murdered. Later on, we were somewhere else, and the news was on tv. It was a story of another child who died. The news mentioned the letter Z, and a strange donut shop. I realized they meant the donut shop I had just went to, so my mom and I returned there to investigate and hopefully get the killer arrested. There was a police officer on the first floor. The old man who owned the place had locked himself into a room and we could hear him freaking out. The police officer said that the man only has a few days left to live. The woman, who I assumed was the old man’s wife, was also freaking out. She was explaining how the man had been abusing her this whole time, and that he was killing the kids who’d go to the store. So the man got arrested, and the woman ran away crying.

Explain why you are frugal. Does it offer you security? What are the worst case scenarios you are saving for? When are situations when you're willing to shill out from your savings?

I'm frugal too, but this year has hit me with some serious tech costs. Both my computer and my phone broke. I was able to spend 1k on a new computer without batting an eye because I was prepred. It made me very happy to be able to do that.

Overall, try to get back to the way you were before. You're not married or in a mutual family-economy, but you still care for each other. Its okay if she has different spending habits, as long as she doesn't try to influence yours. The day something unforseen happens, like her phone, computer or leg breaks, you'll be able to help her because you're ready and WANT to spend money on her.

The most you can do is not reuse passwords, enable 2 factor authentication for stuff that matters, and use HaveIBeenPwned notify you if you’ve been in a breach. But that assumes that the service itself doesn't get hacked, or worse yet that they accidentally leave your data out in the open. [1] a Gates Foundation charity had one of it's databases unsecured and was warned about it by a white hat group, but took over a month to actually fix it. 2 factor authentication (if you enter the correct password the service texts you a code) is good, but hackers can just impersonate you to your service provider and have them send the hacker a sim with your number, locking you out of your phone and giving them the keys to the kingdom. [2] The cell service provider Ho got hacked, and it's database of 2.5 million customers with all their details is up for sale. That twitter account, @bank_security is an excellent account to follow. [3] The bitcoin wallet service Ledger was hacked and data including phone numbers and addresses was leaked, leading to people having their phone numbers cloned and all their bitcoin stolen. For the time being there's just about fucking nothing you can do against having your sim stolen, beyond hoping you're not interesting enough to have your accounts hijacked.

While it's mostly true that if you're a cyber nobody you're safe from the really messed up stuff like sim swapping, a lot of hacking is automated through programs like OpenBullet or SentryMBA. You probably heard about [4] 300k Spotify accounts getting hacked about a month ago, that was from accounts that reused passwords. When a site gets hacked, the database gets boiled down to a list of emails and passwords (I’ll just stick this here, there’s a whole lot more info that can be leaked, it’s usually just username:IP:email:password:phone, hackers can steal pretty much any info the site has on you) which are then loaded into programs that check that email:password against popular social media or entertainment sites. Ones that are verified to have an account with services like Netflix, Spotify, or Disney Plus are compiled and given out as combo lists, which you can find by searching sites like anonfile on google (4chan doesn’t like anon file so your google search would be “site:https://SITENAMEHERE netflix”). Hackers will also post stolen account details on sites like ghost bin, which isn’t searchable by google. [5] There’s a twitter bot that searches ghostbin and pastebin for leaked emails that were posted on those sites, in the past hour it’s posted a link that contains Names, Addresses, Dates of birth, Full Social Security Numbers, phone numbers, emails, passwords, and bank information. To my knowledge, ghost bin doesn’t do takedown requests, and even if it did that information is already being circulated.

I mentioned earlier to sign up for [6] HaveIBeenPwned, which is a site that will notify you when your email appears in a breach. Now I would sooner die than speak ill of the right legend Troy Hunt, but as the regional director of Microsoft Australia or something, he doesn’t seek out the data breaches, only posting what people send him. I know for a fact my account was in more data breaches than what his site lists, but no ones sent him the database with it. Sites are kinda supposed to notify you if they’ve been hacked and what of your info may have been accessed, but they kinda fucking don’t. Emu paradise was one of the few good sites for downloading ROMs, and to get some of the weird japan only stuff you’d have to create an account. Well emu paradise was hacked at one point, and someone was good enough to donate that database to HIBP which sent out an email alerting me to this. EP never sent me an email about this. Search “Emuparadise forum hacked” on google and you’ll get pages of sites talking about the leaked data, FUCKING NOTHING FROM EP. Sites will be aware that they were hacked and just not tell you because they don’t think it’s important.

>> No.10525780

>>10525778
Searching an email on HaveIBeenPwned will show what breaches your email has been in (excluding sensitive breaches, those will be mailed to you to give you some privacy). HIBP only lists the site and what types of info was in the leak, you can’t put in an email and get the username/password/phone/address/sexuality of the user. Unfortunately, there are sites that will let you search that information for a fee. Two big ones, leakedsource and weleakinfo have been taken down [7] [8], but there’s plenty more. They’ll show you what databases they have but to see the info you’ll have to pay, that’s one of the ways I know I’m in leaks that HIBP doesn’t have.
You may remember in 2017 there was a big hubbub and a larger to do about ransomware after the NHS’s network of windows 7 computers (99% their fault, but there’s a lot of healthcare software that will not work outside of 7) got locked by wanna cry ransomware. For the uninitiated, ransomware encrypts your files and offers you the decryption key to get your stuff back. Unless you’re extremely lucky there’s no way to get those files back, just have to restore from a backup and tighten your security. Hackers realized that while this may work on individual users and small businesses, most businesses have an automated backup system, so they would just pop in a data tape and restore files from last week. So they started to copy your files to their own servers, lock your shit, and threaten to release your data publicly if you didn’t pay. It’s getting big and trust me you are going to see a LOT more of this shit. Anywhere you’ve worked at probably still has your tax paperwork, if they get hit and that info gets stolen it’s fucking over. Most places won’t pay the ransom, and even if they do there’s no guarantee the hackers will delete the data. Some of these operations are so big that “the big fish paid up” doesn’t get communicated and the data gets released anyways.

Are you sure your mom doesn't have borderline personality disorder, not bipolar? Borderline is often misdiagnosed as bipolar, and is basically a way more volatile/extreme form of bipolar disorder that doesn't respond to medications. A good rule of thumb is that if your mom's mood swings last minutes/hours/less than a week, she's borderline. If her mood swings last for over a week, she's bipolar. Also bipolar mood swings often have no obvious trigger, borderline mood swings are pretty much always directly triggered by external events.

Lol this isn't going to happen. Looking at demographic and economic trends of the USA, the middle class is being eradicated. Everyone is going to either be poor or upper class. This is why the cost of education is so high, the current pressure to make it into that elite class since it's either that or be poor is so insanely high that people will do nearly anything to get into them, so prestigious universities which are selling keys into the upper class charge whatever they want. In addition to that, the upper classes are earning more than ever while the poor classes are experiencing massive wage stagnation, meaning inflation and cost of living increases is destroying their already pitiful wage.

As this pressure increases more and more people will be forced into the poor bracket as middle class roles dry up. Meaning plenty more young girls willing to do whatever to get a slice of that pie. And to top it off, the USA is one of the only developed nations in the world not experiecing a population decline which would make young bodies more valuable.

I have a similar story sans agoraphobia. Joined the military out of high school, got out when I was 24 and went to college. All my friends were 18-19 and I felt old and weird being so much older in the same place in life. I often lied about my age to inconsequential strangers, like dudes in bars. No one clocks me at my age especially since my crowd is so obviously young and I’ve always had a baby face. My close friends knew about my life so they knew how old I was, but all the acquaintances and classmates thought I was their age and I didn’t tell them. People treat you differently if they know you’re older and I wanted to to erase those military years so I essentially pretended I was young but didn’t actually lie and avoided the question and made little jokes when acquaintances asked. I’m actually glad I did that because when it came to living in the real world I essentially was the same age as my peers, the military really sheltered me and when it came to figuring life out and finding and building friendships I was totally naive. Associating with people who are similarly naïve made me be kinder to myself about needing help and struggling or making mistakes and that was a really good thing. If I had continually just been focused on the fact that I was 28 and should’ve been where most 28yr olds were instead of where my 21yr old friends were, I would’ve been really unhappy and stressed out. It sounds like you’re in a similar situation. Now I’m 32 and it doesn’t matter as much out in the real world (esp during covid) but generally all my friends are still younger than me and that’s ok.

Bottom line is people will make assumptions about your age based on who you hang out with, your “progress” in life, and even how you dress, so just don’t correct their assumptions and live your best pretend young life. There’s plenty of time to be old later and the people who matter won’t care

My boyfriend is moving across country and I want to join him eventually but my aspie brain can't wrap its head around getting a new apartment and job when having to deal with current job and life tasks at the same time.

One of my friends was playing dress ups in some of my clothes. She really liked a cheapie taobao dress of mine so I said maybe she could borrow it sometime or I could give to her. I haven’t worn lolita in years and that dress meant nothing to me.
But then I showed her my actual sales pile and she really likes an IW dress... she wants that and she wants to borrow my ‘lolita costumes’ (she recognised that it was lolita) to wear to parties and for Halloween. She really looked great in that dress and I want to give it to her but there’s some weird part of me that feels very possessive and thinks that someone that doesn’t understand the fashion does not deserve burando. Is that weird? It’s just clothes in the end but for so long it meant a lot more to me than that. It feels like it means more than just ‘clothes’, idk.

>> No.10527697

Its natural to be possessive of the stuff you cherish but you gotta turn your lizard brain off and see how you can spin this to your advantage. Let her borrow your clothes, but with hard limits, like 1-2 dresses a month only, as well as letting her know she would be responsible for any damages and the value of each item.

She'll start to fall in love with the fashion after wearing it, especially the nice stuff. Make her look and feel good in it and encourage her. But keep the stuff on a slow drip so she gets impatient and starts wanting to buy her own. Wear it with her. After she is full-blown addicted, congratulations. You now have another lolita friend!

Figure out what your current calorie consumption is and then slowly drop it by 100-200 calories until you’re eating in a weight loss range. It helps the change come naturally and prevents you from binging.

i've been recommended to start with 1600, it's easy for me to eat within that range, but unless i'm constantly doing something i end up snacking which is my biggest eating weakness, so i'm trying to cut that out. I think i'm going to try out eating more smaller meals per day rather than 2-3 larger meals? and see how that works

It's strange how much of an impact your style and coords had on me even when I never knew you personally or even saw you posting. It's selfish to say this a stranger, but every now and then, I still wish you did not take your own life. I hope you're doing better wherever you are now.

who hurt you? nta but I totally get why someone would get a bit upset for having stingy family members. I mean if it was supposed to be a gift exchange and you handed over your gift and got an 'oops we forgot abt you' in return I'd feel pretty shitty

>>10528476
did your parents/brother mention getting you sth later? Did you plan for a gift exchange or were your gifts total surprises?

the cgl ss is a mess altogether

>> No.10528509

>>10528495
ok that's on me, I should have clarified that! If all my own gifts were surprise gifts I would totally understand it to be greedy to expect anything in return cause that defeats the purpose of a surprise gift. And ofc don't give just to get something back, I do get that!

But yes this was a fully planned family secret santa. As in me, my parents, brother and his girlfriend decided to hold a gift exchange and set up a budget and my brother matched everyone with a randomizer etc. Separately to that my brother, parents and I have a set gift exchange every Christmas (we've only done the extra secret santa thing for 3 years since my brother's girlfriend suggested it/is used to it in her family). We had 2 whatsapp groups for it, which were posted in at least once a week from the start of November. We all made posts how we were trying to find or had found the perfect thing etc. And still somewhere along the way my parents and my brother (my secret santa match) all forgot to get me something. Just slipped their minds, oops. They promised to get me something, but the hurt has been done...

Its not really about the gifts/material side of it. Being forgotten by your family members and sitting at a table watching them unwrap gifts while you got nothing is not a fun feeling ok

I mean even before this year the threads were slow. It's also not a recession for a lot of people who have kept their jobs. Their spending on hobbies has gone up because spending on travel/fun has gone down.

Are you allergic to all makeup? Have you tried everyday minerals or mac?

My skin is crazy sensitive and I used to only be able to wear everyday minerals. I started taking garden of life probiotics and taking allergy meds daily and my skin seems to have desensitized over the past couple years. I wear mac studio fix powder now (the liquid still makes my skin itch).

Not entirely sure, but I have a lot of other allergies. I get really flakey skin and get hives on my face, my eyes itch and I now officially look worse with make-up than without and it's gotten worse. I don't wear it daily at all, but I've tried a lot of different make-up and it's both blushes, eyeshadows and foudnation that causes it now.

I feel you to a degree.

I spent ages and a lot of money like I do every year trying to get people real gifts, like things they would actually want. Out of all the people I bought gifts for, I earn the least out of everyone by a considerable margin. Everyone got a gift that was just for them and nobody else would like or want.

In return, everyone just gave me generic Christmas gifts. Socks, those body wash kits, alcohol (I don't even drink), etc.

I feel very underappreciated and like no one cares. There's plenty of things I want but just can't justify the spend while I'm still a student that I would have loved but this just feels like no one cares about me.

You sound a lot like my mom. I think the only blush and eye makeup she can use is clinique. For foundation I know she just uses mac studio fix powder. Anytime she tries something new she usually ends up having to take benadryl.

Not the same, but I have rosacea. Nowadays I try to keep skincare to a minimum, just wash and moisturize, and I dont use foundation anymore. I use glossier blush and a little concealer and powder only under my eyes. Staying away from drying products has helped a lot. But even if you have to stop wearing makeup, at least masks are the norm now lol.

I'm dreaming of moving out on the daily, and I just recently got a soft offer from my brother's gf that her family has a flat looking for a long term resident. It's in a perfect part of town, and even if I haven't seen it or actually talked with her grandpa who properly owns it I... I dream so much.

All I can do is wait for her to check in with the rest of her family. I hope her good word for my character counts. I hope the windows have a pleasant view. I hope it's destined to be mine. I'll pay all the rent they want to have private peace of mind for me and my stupid cosplay projects.

Sounds a lot like my ex, who had rosacea like >>10528688 does. Her situation got a lot better after she started using skincare stuff that was actually designed for her condition and makeup that was friendlier to it. IIRC she switched from foundation to that Korean BB cream stuff and it helped a lot.

I used my christmas bonus for a weighted blanket and some 3m construction earmuffs so I can relax after work without hearing my neighbors. Why is all the stuff targeted at autisms so nice?
