Do any of you other AuDHDers hate washing your face with water? I pretty much exclusively use micellar water, but I feel it doesn't do the best job. For those of you who also hate washing your face with water, what do you do? I thought I'd post this here because this is definitely a sensory issue and I feel like there's gotta be other AuDHD women like me who hate washing their face with water, and instead of just dealing with it, have made it their mission to perfect washing their face sans water.

I know someone made a post alerting us to the fact that the movie that started it all for a lot of us, The Room, is going to be available this September, but I just came across Tommy Wiseau’s announcement on instagram, and thought it was worth a share. Enjoy!

This is really low stakes, but I’m AuDHD and kind of a people pleaser (not as bad as I used to be, luckily) and I’m terrible at turning people down sometimes.

Anyway, my mom, one of her closest friends, and I all live in the same city. These straight women (along with friends boyfriend and some other man I’ve never heard of) are all going to a LESBIAN BAR. I get that they think it will be a fun time (because it will, it’s a lesbian bar, after all) and they’re just being good tourists allies, but it’s really rubbing me the wrong way that these straight women are going to a lesbian bar and worse, bringing straight men. My mom invited me and I just politely turned her down without voicing my thoughts about how I feel like they’d be invading their space because I honestly feel like my mom would just be offended and not get it, and we’d get nowhere. This goes doubly for her friend, unfortunately. A part of me feels like they’re inviting me because I’m bi so they can say SEE WE BROUGHT A SAPPHIC WITH US, WE’RE COOL.

You’re probably wondering why I’m bringing this up since I already turned down my mom’s invite. Well, today, days later, her friend just invited me. Like??? Did my mom not relay that I don’t want to go? I don’t get it. I’m asking for advice on how to decline AGAIN because all I want to do is scream that they shouldn’t be invading their space, and no I absolutely do not want to go and be a part of it, and I can’t get over that mental block.

Again, I know this is really low stakes, but thanks for reading and answering my question.

Hello, everyone! It’s your friendly, neighborhood Squirrel. You may know me, you may not. But if you don’t, I’ve been around since the dawn of time. That is, I’ve been around since back in the day when our main mod, u/no-chemistry-28 was still posting on r/badmovies and I followed him here, to this sub, at its inception.

I don’t post too often these days, but I will post here and there occasionally (I already have a few items in the queue.) However, I promise to be an active and kind (yet firm) mod. If you have any questions, comments, and concerns, please direct them at me, as No Chem will be very busy being a second time father 🥳🥳🥳.

Ok, that’s it! Have a wonderful day, everyone, and I’ll see you around. Mod message out.

I don’t think it’s there anymore, sadly. I’m wondering what happened to it. I used to live right next door to it but, embarrassingly, I’m having trouble remembering the name. I didn’t love the food, but the woman who owned it was just so great! She was Macedonian and it was a family owned restaurant. I’d see her mother in the shop, and the last few times I visited before I moved, her son was kind of taking over, it seemed. It was also very popular with DePaul kids. Hopefully all this hope. She was such a kind lady. I hope she and her family are doing well.

Sorry if this is not allowed, I’ll delete it if it isn’t. I’ve been seeing my stylist for three years now. We met when they were in cosmetology school and I followed them to my current salon. I like them, but I’m worried they’re not as experienced to do what I want. Would it be rude to tell them I want a second opinion? For reference, I have purple and blue ghost roots that are now chin length, and I have dyed dark brown hair (and some regrowth at the roots). Ideally, I want to bleach my entire head and go periwinkle.
