hi everyone!

i’m new here :3
i’m 25, she/her, a girl, and agnostic. i’m in a committed relationship, so i’m purely here for friendship! i’m also vegetarian and have a huge soft spot for stray animals.
style-wise, i’m definitely more on the alternative/grunge side. music is a HUGE part of my personality and i genuinely listen to all kinds of stuff. deftones and alice in chains are some of my favorites, but i also have a very feminine clairo/babydoll side.
i’m also a massive horror movie person, especially slashers. scream 1 is one of my all-time favorites.
mostly, i’m looking for likeminded female friends cause that’s something i really lack and miss at the moment.
feel free to comment or dm me :)

cinema etiquette is dead in pakistan

this week my partner and i went to go watch Obsession at cue in lahore and honestly, i think it finally broke me.
this has been bothering me for years, but this experience pushed me over the edge.
what the hell is wrong with people?

i’m not talking about little kids or people who genuinely don't know better. i’m talking about people my age (mid twenties to early thirties) that look educated and look like they come from good backgrounds. and yet they sat there laughing through some of the most disturbing, sad, and emotionally heavy scenes in the entire film.
and for what?
i genuinely don't understand what was so funny that it made you AUDIBLY laugh. the movie has a couple of intentionally humorous moments. fine, laugh there. that’s normal. but people were laughing during scenes that were supposed to be uncomfortable or emotionally devastating.
why? is intimacy funny? are feelings funny? is watching someone suffer funny? are we genuinely that emotionally disconnected that we can't tell the difference anymore? or is this some pathetic performance people put on to seem cool? because if that's what it is, you look plain stupid.

somewhere along the way, people forgot how to watch and respect movies. a cinema isn't your living room, it is a SHARED PUBLIC SPACE where we should be considerate about the people around us. stop talking through the movie. stop scrolling through your phone with full brightness. and for the love of god, if your baby is crying non-stop, take it outside.

experiences like this make me not want to go to the cinema anymore. every time a genuinely good movie comes out, it gets ruined by people who treat the screening like a social gathering instead of a film.
we constantly complain that pakistan doesn't get enough good films, doesn't have enough cinema culture, doesn't have enough appreciation for art. then the moment we get something thoughtful, challenging, or emotionally intelligent, more than half the audience treats it like a joke. at this point, i genuinely believe we don’t even deserve good movies.

the new spiderman movie is coming out soon, and for the first time in years, i’m questioning whether i even want to bother going.
and before someone inevitably says i’m overreacting, no i’m not.
and if you’re someone who does any of the things i mentioned, from the bottom of my heart, screw you.

Skinthetics 360 (laser hair removal)

hi everyone.
i’m considering getting laser hair removal from Skinthetics 360 (DHA branch) and wanted to hear from people who have actually had it done there.
i went in for a consultation and patch test this week, and the doctor (Dr. Sana) was really kind and informative. she showed me her own results from the Soprano Titanium Ice laser, which honestly made me feel a lot more comfortable.
it would be helpful to hear from anyone who has gone there specifically for laser hair removal.
- how many sessions have you had?
- what areas did you get lasered?
- how much hair reduction did you see?
- did you experience any side effects?
- have you gone in for maintenance sessions?
- what was your impression of the staff?

any other vegetarians dreading bari Eid?

i stopped eating meat years ago because i immensely love all animals. this time of year always messes with me emotionally. seeing all the sacrificial animals around the city makes me sick to my core.
(before this offends anyone, this is not an attack on religion or on people celebrating)
