I have been so insecure of my body because of scoliosis, it was honestly devastating for me. I stopped wearing many clothes and I even stopped dancing.
I have been feeling so much better nowadays, i feel confident and I am back at dancing!
haiiii, i’m a student looking for part-time freelance work so i can support myself alongside my studies without being a financial burden on my parents. i’ve been writing for years and what i focus on most is making content feel natural, relatable, and genuinely human instead of overly polished or “ai sounding.” i would like to include, i am anti-ai.
i spend a lot of time understanding how people think and respond to content, which helps me write things that actually hold attention. i can write reddit-style content, youtube scripts, articles, storytelling pieces, and even promotional content that blends naturally into real writing instead of feeling forced or salesy. i also do basic canva design work like thumbnails, simple graphics, and visuals when needed.

i’m serious about my work, respectful with communication, and looking for genuine clients/projects i can manage alongside my studies. if you need writing that feels authentic and easy to connect with, feel free to reach out. thank you!!!
i recently started an instagram account where i repost some of the iconic stuff from my tumblr. each post only gets around 100-200 views, but i've noticed almost every post has "1 sent" in the insights.
i know "sent" usually means someone shared it with another person, but i'm lowkey worried someone could be sending my posts to themselves or someone else to copy the ideas. am i overthinking this? has anyone else noticed this? also, any tips for getting more views and engagement on a new theme/meme account would be appreciated.
thank you!!!

and i don't mean a few fantasy items here and there. i mean a FULLY committed fantasy update.
give me elaborate fantasy gowns with layers upon layers of fabric. give me antlers, ornate crowns, magical relics, enchanted weapons, fantasy masks, dramatic sleeves, glowing accessories, celestial robes, woodland royalty outfits, dark fae pieces, ethereal fabrics, and the kind of details that make you spend 20 minutes on one outfit.
i want themes where people can show up as ancient forest spirits, forgotten gods, moon guardians, dragon tamers, fae nobility, cursed royalty, magical librarians, enchanted dolls, and characters that look like they stepped out of a fantasy novel.
sometimes i don't want to dress like a celebrity or a regular human. sometimes i want to look like i've been protecting a magical kingdom for the last 700 years and carry the weight of an ancient prophecy on my shoulders.
i need more whimsy. more fantasy. more unnecessary lore. please let me become a mysterious being that nobody can explain.
what do you guys thinkkkk
i made a post here around a few days ago asking about student-friendly remote work because i’m an 18f trying to manage my own expenses alongside college without constantly depending on my parents. a lot of people were kind and gave suggestions, and i genuinely did try following up on them, applying, reaching out, searching everywhere i could.
but honestly… i still haven’t found anything solid.
most things either turn out to be scams, unpaid “experience,” or eventually become “just start content creation” advice and i really don’t want to become a creator/influencer type person </3 i want to do work i actually enjoy and gain experience in, especially writing, moderation, community management, organizing things, stuff like that.
i’m not even trying to earn some huge amount, i just want enough to stop feeling guilty over every small necessary expense while still focusing properly on college and academics.
i think what’s making me frustrated is not even the money part anymore, it’s the feeling that i’ve been trying consistently and still getting nowhere.
i’m an student (18f) trying to earn a little money alongside college so i can manage my own expenses without constantly depending on my parents and being a financial burden. i stay in a hostel, so things like food, laundry, electricity, travel(metro & cab), and basic feminine hygiene expenses add up really fast.
i’m mainly looking for part-time online work because i still want to focus properly on my studies and aim for the highest score in my class.
i’ve been writing for years and i’m pretty good at it. i can do reddit-style writing, storytelling, youtube scripts, promotional content, and basic canva graphics/thumbnails too.
i can also write good notes (for classes 11th and lower) + good flashcards.
if anyone knows genuine ways students earn online or places where i can find decent freelance work, i’d really appreciate the help. and if someone actually needs writing/design work done, my dms are open too <3

as a kid, one of my biggest dreams was to have a youtube channel. i don’t even know why exactly, but it always felt oddly comforting and magical to me. like a little corner of the internet where people shared pieces of themselves with strangers. now that i’m older, i’ve finally decided to do what younger me always wanted and start one.
i want to make videos about the good things i’ve learned throughout my life; small lessons, comforting thoughts, kindness from random people, and especially the things my grandmother used to tell me while combing my hair. those moments stayed with me more than i realized.
the only thing is… i’m kinda overwhelmed? i don’t fully know how youtube works yet. you can’t really just upload a raw recording, right? there’s thumbnails, editing, voiceovers, visuals, all that stuff. i also can’t speak english very clearly, and my university is pretty strict about students having public online presence, so i’ll probably stay faceless/anonymous.
also, i know ai tools are everywhere now, but i genuinely don’t want to use ai for my content. i want it to feel human, even if it’s imperfect.
if anyone has advice for beginner-friendly apps, editing tools, faceless formats, or just encouragement in general, i’d really appreciate it <3
okay so i finally decided to start digital art and i was actually excited until i opened the app and saw how many brushes there are… and now i’m just sitting here confused because i don’t know what i’m supposed to use or even where to start. it feels like there are a million options and i have no idea which ones are actually useful and which ones people just ignore.
do most of you stick to a few default brushes or do you switch a lot depending on what you’re doing?? like is there a “go-to” brush you always come back to for sketching, lineart, or colouring? i keep overthinking it and end up not drawing at all because i’m stuck trying to pick the “right” brush.
if you have any brushes you swear by, or even specific settings you’ve adjusted that made things easier, i’d really appreciate if you could share them and what you use them for. i’m not looking for anything super advanced, just something simple and reliable so i can stop stressing about tools and actually focus on learning.
pls help a beginner out, i’ll take any advice at this point </3
hey, i’m a student trying to be independent and a writer with over 10 years of experience, and most of what i focus on is writing that feels natural, relatable, and easy to read instead of overly polished or “ai sounding.”
i spend a lot of time understanding how people think and respond to content, which helps me write things that actually hold attention, whether it’s a reddit post, a youtube script, or something more storytelling-based. i’ve also done writing that blends subtle promotion into real content without making it feel forced.
i recently put together a proper portfolio with different types of samples, including reddit-style content, youtube scripts, articles, and a short fiction piece!

I’m not sure if I’m overreacting or if this was actually the right decision, so I wanted an outside perspective.
Over the past year, I slowly started distancing myself from a group of female friends I’d been close to for a while. It wasn’t one big fight or anything dramatic, just a pattern of things that kept bothering me more and more.
There was a lot of subtle stuff, comments that felt like backhanded compliments, jokes that were always at someone’s expense, and this constant feeling of being in the wrong. I also noticed that whenever something good happened to me, the energy would shift. Either it would get dismissed or turned into something negative. I would like to add one more thing; alot of them were cheating on their boyfriends/girlfriends and I was against it strongly but they got angry by the fact that I am not supporting them and their lifestyle.
There were also situations where I felt like trust wasn’t really there. Things I shared privately would somehow come up in conversations with others, and it made me start holding back a lot.
I’ll be honest, they weren’t 'terrible' people all the time. We had good moments too, which is why I stayed as long as I did. But over time, being around them started to feel draining instead of supportive. I do miss these people and the joy.
So instead of confronting everything directly, I kind of just… pulled away? I stopped showing up as much, replied less, and eventually just cut contact with most of them and blocked few.
Now I’m in a much quieter place socially but I have good quality of friends, and sometimes I wonder if I handled it badly. Part of me feels relieved, but another part of me thinks maybe I should’ve communicated better instead of just disappearing.
Am I in the wrong for cutting them off like that instead of trying to fix things? What would have you done if you were in my place?
okay baes, serious question because my wardrobe is crying quietly in the corner
where are we getting actually good formal fits in india that don’t make me look like i’m attending my dad’s office or something
like i want chic, sharp, “she definitely has her life together” energy
not stiff blazer + sad trousers combo plssss
thinking structured fits, clean tailoring, maybe a little bit of drama but still boardroom approved
also shoes?? where are we finding those perfect heels or loafers that don’t destroy your soul after 2 hours
drop your holy grails, secret websites, underrated brands, everything
help a girl upgrade from “trying” to “effortlessly that girl”
thank u, love u, mean it
