I have excessive hair growth on my chin, and I tend to pick at it out of anxiety/obsessive compulsive tendencies, but it leaves the area red and irritated. I don’t wear makeup but I’m looking for a light concealer to hide some of the redness. A coworker asked me if I’m okay today and now I’m in my head about it more than usual 😅
I could’ve posted a clip but I think the frames tell a better story
this is mine, enjoy ⚾️ 🍎
For context, I visited in 2018 and stupidly took home some black sand. I was very young and uneducated when I did it. I learned during lockdown how wrong it was and felt so embarrassed that I tucked it in the back of my closet and tried to forget it existed. The world was ending and I wasn’t using Reddit at the time.
Well, I found the sand this week, and want to make it right (to the best of my ability). Am I able to return it? I know it’s from the west side of the big island, but I don’t know the actual name of the beach.
Apologies if this isn’t the right sub. If it isn’t, and you know where/who I can go to, please let me know. Mahalo in advance. 💜
Editing to add: thank you everyone for your (mostly) helpful responses! I’m not concerned with curses or anything, I just know now how disrespectful it was to have literally stolen their land, when that’s all America has done to them. I should’ve left it there where it belonged. I’m making it right and sending the sand home this weekend.

I hope that’s enough room 😅 Anyway, I was so intrigued with this book as I was learning about the characters, but it felt like the ending was rushed, and the “one year later” update undid all character building. Like why did Gabriella jump out of the moving car because she was so upset about having a (third) mother and one year later is happily visiting Birdy?? And Birdy did NOT seem like the type to let anyone tell her what to do, or when she’d die. The fact that she tried to take herself out ON her death day was so dumb.
This is the first book I’ve read/listened to in a few years and I wish it had a better ending. That being said, the concept of the plot was very cool. I liked the switching between narrators and I would’ve never guessed that it was Jane who pushed Eden.
What are some other audiobooks I can listen to that have a similar vibe? I don’t want this one to deter me from getting back into reading. Thanks in advance 😁
