Flickering lights

Hello,

We have something weird that happens in our house. Whenever my partner walks into a room, the lights start flickering in that room. Once he walks out, the lights stop flickering. I can never get the lights to flicker unless I walk out and he walks in. If it was one room, I would know to have an electrician come and check our wiring in that room, but it happens in every single room he is in.

I wish I could make this up, but I am not. Where do we start with this? If I hire an electrician, they are going to think I am crazy. What exactly would we be looking for?

No rude comments, please. I am just trying to keep my home safe.

Kid-friendly MP3

My son wants an MP3 player, but I am trying to find one with ZERO ability to connect to wifi. I would also prefer an actual headphone jack and ability to download the music names/etc.

The Amazon reviews seem to all be paid or they aren't what I am looking for. What are your suggestions?

I will probably be putting music from old CD's on there.

Earbuds

Hello!

I am looking for noise reducung earbuds that are comfortable but discreet. Loop seems to be the most common, but are they comfortable? That's a lot of money to spend if they end up causing more discomfort than the noise itself.

​

Any suggestions welcome, links would be a bonus!

​

Thank you!

Any suggestions for fixing this? This is the plastic cover, over the mesh of the windows.

How about a zipper?

How do I get rid of these blackheads and keep them away?

I never had terrible acne as a teenager, usually just some hormonal zits. As an adult, I get what I think are blackheads all around my lips and I am not sure how to get rid of them. They are embarrassing and I can't get rid of them. More and more keep popping up.

I wash my face daily. I don't wear makeup. I change my pillow cases regularly. I am not sure what is causing this, how to get them out, or how to keep them away.

They are like little balls of brown butter, if I were to describe a texture. Help!!

Business Casual dress recs

Has anyone found dresses or skirts that are easy to style, comfy, and cheap? I want to buy some things for the summer but they should also be office friendly.

I am usually an XL in women's, but have a belly and smaller chest, so most things feel frumpy.

Links and/or pics of what you are finding would be even more helpful!

Thanks in advance!

Where to start with face makeup?

I am an adult woman who has never done makeup. I don't even know where to start with face makeup. Please explain to me like I am a child who has never seen makeup lol.

What are a few things I can start with? I only have eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara.

How do I know what color to get for my skin without trying it?

I am also on a pretty tight budget. Thank you!

EDIT: I also have pretty deep pores and some acne.. if that makes a difference.

I (32F) delete my text messages and my partner (40M) thinks it's weird.

My 32 F partner 40 M have been together for 8 years. He has saved his texts in the cloud for years and years. One day, he asked what I was doing and I said "just deleting my texts" as in, going through and mass deleting texts from spam, convos I don't need, security codes, etc. I do this maybe twice per year just to keep my phone cleaned up and running smooth. He thought it was weird that I would delete my texts, as if I was trying to hide something.

But it got me thinking, do you all really just save years and years of texts on your phone/cloud??
