This is an odd post.
But recently I noticed I, quite frankly, suck using a D-pad for fighters.
It's likely user error, but I noticed I feel most comfortable using buttons that aren't on a conjoined interface. Like the Nintendo Switch 'D-pad' or a keyboard. When using a d-pad I feel I have overall less control of what I'm pushing. It COULD be because of my only two controllers (Xbox 360 PC controller & SNES PC controller) but whenever I play fighters I feel clunky. I feel 'better' on keyboard but it feels clunky when it comes to assigning button layouts for non movement (punches etc.) Does anyone know of a controller or a fightstick that is like this? For the record, I don't have very big hands either. So it isn't an issue of 'D-pad too small' it's more like it feels like trying to text with gloves on. If that makes any sense.

I want to get into Tekken, SF, and JJBAHFTF and I feel like not being able to truly have control over my character is really creating a barrier of entry for me. Otherwise my only 'fighting' experience is Melee.

Nevertheless if anyone has any advice for me at all. I'd appreciate it a ton.

Out of all the "storage software" we've had for Pokemon over the years Pokemon home is by far the second best. It's rich with features, space, and whatever you could want at a baseline level for a storage software.

However I've really grown to hate how certain things are handled.

This is more of a rant so forgive me. For me my favorite part of Pokemon is "catching them all" and sorting them. I have OCD (diagnosed) and sorting Pokemon and filling out boxes with all the different types of Pokemon makes me feel really happy and enriched. That said, this service has a lot of flaws.

Firstly, the lack of updates to the amount of boxes we have is concerning. Considering Nintendo wants this to be the 'be all end all' for Pokemon storage it's concerning that there hasn't be almost any updates to increase the capacity of the boxes. Especially considering how the software wants/rewards you to behave. Having the means to store whatever you catch Especially in incredible amounts is something I think should be the forefront of the developer's consideration.

Next, is Pokedex completion. Why is this exclusive to the phone application version of the software? I get to the game/software split but why is checking the Pokedex for the Nintendo switch versions of the games exclusive to the phone version of the application? Out of all the features to be locked why is the biggest one for the games locked to something that can't even play them? Especially considering that is how you obtain the shiny pokemon rewards for those very same games. That's quite frustrating and redundant. With that in mind, the game rewards you for having a complete Pokedex for each game counting only Pokemon from each game. (Ie a pokemon from SV counts in the SV pokedex to get the shiny mythical) why is it realistically I can't permanently store these pokemon if I choose? Due to the box limit I have to more or less play "transfer tag" to make sure the measly two hundred boxes are saved for important Pokemon storage. Having to think about that is dumb.

Furthermore, It's quite silly that a game from almost two decades ago (Pokemon Box) has a much more intuitive and less clunky design and interface than Pokemon Home. I've played around with Pokemon box and it's user interface, UI, and box layout is much more fun and easy to use than homes is. I know not everyone has the means to play around with Pokemon Box but watch a video of it and you'll understand quickly that sorting Pokemon and moving them is a lot easier. With Pokemon home even with it's expanded features everything feels difficult to use and clunky especially the switch version. Searching for Pokemon is handled in the most stupid way possible is one of the biggest things in mind. Pokemon box also has larger boxes (60 per box) which arguably makes a lot more sense for a means of mass storage.

It's even more stupid that the mobile app version I can't physically move each Pokemon within their boxes. Specficially speaking within home and not to connect to games. Why can't I do some "extra sorting" within the same application that has all my pokemon? That seems unbelievably redundant.

Locking features between the app and the switch version with some exceptions is incredibly stupid to me. Especially the GTS and Pokedex festures out of all the features to have locked to the phone why are these two (arguably the most important features of the software) the two that demand to be on the phone? That's incredibly stupid to me and it kinda ticks me off big time.

Continuing, some of the features we do have feel half-baked. Why do the games have mystery gifts if the Pokemon home app has mystery gifts? They're giving away the free pokemon that can only go to specfic game? Even if I don't have the game there shouldn't be a reason I can't at least have the FREE pokemon they're giving away. Disregarding how mystery gifts are handled, it's incredibly nonsensical as to why they continue to do mystery gifts in this redundant way when a lot more people can get more usage out of home and more satisfaction overall by just making all mystery gifts done through home. The free version lets you keep a box or two so there shouldn't be any reason not to do this. You need internet regardless to claim these so being able to just "oh I see this code on my mystery gift card or on twitter or whatever let me redeem it right now." Makes a thousand more sense than "Okay, let me remember to boot up Pokemon, let me remember how to get to the mystery gift redemption screen on this specfic game...oh shoot gotta switch to online mode. Put in the code and get the stuff." With item distribution that makes sense, but with Pokemon I don't see why not.

One feature that specficially ticks me off is the "catch calendar". The way the "anniversaries " tab works seems like a complete waste. How it SHOULD work is like Snapchat memories or Icloud photos memories where it's like "one year ago you caught these pokemon in home" instead I have to put in a specfic date and see those pokemon I caught? Why not just have a search function? Instead of whatever we currently have? This feature, for some reason, really really REALLY infuriates me. I love this feature conceptually and the way it's handled is complete crap.

Closing thoughts, I know Pokemon home can be better. I want it to be better. I love sorting Pokemon and catching them but these things (and I'm sure theres more that I'm not thinking of) make using the service a complete clunk-fest full of frustration. I'm sure a lot of you agree and I appreciate you if you've read this far.

I'm a 24 Trans woman and my current wig is currently reaching the end of it's lifespan. I'm looking for another wig I can wear daily and looks realistic. I've checked a few sites like Hairvivi but I've had no luck, everything is either out of stock or has some sort of qualm or catch.
I figured 400 dollars would be a good fair price. I am very white/pinkish which makes finding wigs a tad harder lace wise. If anyone has any recommendations I'd be super ultra thankful. I'm still rather new and don't really trust myself with a pair of scissors. This would be my Fourth wig since I've started wearing them almost full time. I know there's a lot of suspicious websites out and about so I figured it would be worth a shot to ask here.
Thank you!

Edit:
About 22ish inches a bit longer than my current wig.
I'm located in NY (Upstate)
