Elf outfit I threw together for a fantasy party with items I already owned!

I was honestly surprised by how many pieces I had that fit this theme! It was really last minute and I threw it together the night before, but I thought it turned out pretty okay!

On and off the pill for 15+ years

I’ve been actively taking an oral contraceptive for a while now, and about a month ago decided to stop, due to mood-based side effects.
I just went to the doctor today for a medication check-in, as I’ve also been taking Cymbalta for the last 9 months, and I’ve gained almost 20 pounds.
Has anyone else experienced weight gain with the pill, and maybe the pill paired with an SSRI/SNRI?
I’m hoping to get back to my normal self now that I’m off of it, but it was quite jarring considering I’m not someone who gains that much in such a short amount of time.

My first trip to Spirit throughout the years (2026, 2025, 2020)

Also for some reason it looks like I’m flipping off the store in the first picture, and I swear I’m just pointing 😭🎃

Should I keep growing my hair out, or cut it short?

The first 3 photos are current day – I typically wear it up/back for work like in the second photo, and when it is down, I don’t think it’s very flattering on me. I recently got a haircut as a refresher, but I’m still not quite pleased with how I look.
I can’t decide if I would look best if I just stick it out and keep growing it, or if I look better with it shorter like in the last two photos, which are from about 2019-2020.

Should I keep growing my hair out, or cut it short?

I’ve been growing my hair out for a little over a year now, but I feel like I need a change! I’m almost 30 and am lacking any edge in my appearance anymore. The first two pictures are current day, and the last three are about 6-7 years ago. Honest thoughts?

Should I cut my hair short?

I hardly ever wear my hair down, whether it be for work or for convenience – I like the way it looks up, but it sometimes feels pointless to even keep it longer if I never show it. I’ve had short hair at many times in my life, the last 3 pictures being about 6 or 7 years ago. Do I continue to grow it out, or should I chop it off again? Which suits me better?

ASICS or Keens?

I’m a barista and work 6-7 hours on my feet everyday. I am unfortunately picky about the way my shoes look to some extent, but I really like the style of ASICS and Keens. Which would give me more bang for my buck, and hold up my soles better? Thanks in advance!

How to dress in a way that’s more flattering for my body type?

I love my personal style and don’t intend on changing it completely, but it’s become increasingly difficult to find pants or bottoms that fit in a way that make me look proportional. I obviously know I can’t change my body shape simply by how I dress, but I have a clear pear shape and don’t want to appear so bottom-heavy. I just want to dress appropriately for my age and size – I’m 28 and 6’ tall

Dark sci-fi with a female MC?

I love movies like Ghost In The Shell, Alien: Covenant, and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind – what are some books that have a similar vibe or premise?

Best book in the canonical Alien series?

I’ve recently got into reading again and remembered there’s a whole series of Alien books… should I start with the original, or is there a standout among all of them?

Just finished Spoiled Milk! What should I read next?

I haven’t read, or even finished a book in years, and after purchasing Spoiled Milk about a month ago, I actually managed to read it all!
I think this was the perfect starter book for me – the right length, with a mild amount of supernatural horror and sapphic elements.
I feel like now I am ready for something more intense, though. Any recommendations?

Thoughts on Maya Hawke’s music?

There are a few songs of hers that I really enjoy, and I’m not sure how I feel about the rest of her discography. Is she just a nepo baby, or is there real potential there?
I don’t believe nepotism should automatically determine someone as untalented when it comes to music, but I’m curious what other people’s opinions are.
She recently released her album Maitreya Corso, and I thought I’d give it a listen. I’m not sure I like it as much as her earlier work, but it’s still easy on the ears.
