why do you specifically want to play as a girl with a dick? Fallout 4 has preset player avatar mods that make your character nonbinary, I think that is a much better solution for what you want out of your character

cus its cool to play a tgirl character? lol

no offense but im well aware of that mod and while the avatar preset is beautiful, a "flat chested athletic build female" avatar is not at all what i would call a proper solution for nonbinary people to play as tbh

like im trying to read this in good faith but why would a thin toned flat chested woman be something that my fat ass identifies with?? i said i want to play a fat girl with a dick and youre offering me a skinny chick w no dick how does that make sense to you??

ngl this is similar to the way people treat my transition "why do you need phalloplasty when youre very feminine and you can just be masculine and fit and be a completely different person cus itll fit *my* vision of your identity better" like i know this aint that deep but when we are talking about building characters we can identity with and play as we tend to build them close to our image of ourselves, yeah? why then would you recommend something different than what someone wants to play as? im sayin i hate that fallout has no good mods for me or my gf to play a girl with a penis and youre saying "hold on now why not play as a flat chested cis chick", you see the problem we are having here?

FEDBOI FRIDAY

[the-chicken-or-the-banana]

i feel like neil is the type to make the most horrendous food combinations known to humanity that actually turn out to be good? like he's used to living off of scraps so he'll find leftovers or random snacks around the dorm and make absolutly monstrous mixtures

andrew and kevin refuse to touch them at first but matt's always there for his buddy, so he'll try it, cry to dan about how good it is, she'll eat it, and then eventually everyone jumps on the bandwagon. one day neil wakes up in the middle of the night and finds andrew and kevin sitting on the kitchen counter scarfing down his newest concoction with way too much gusto for people who claimed they'd never touch his shit food (but they'll deny it if you ask)

[satans-knitwear]

Hmmm i should have one of those pretty necklaces that attatches to nipple piercings. That would be very delicious of me.

[ask-doctor-isami]

Hello "doctor" Yaoi- I mean Yuri

I was told I should ask you to draw some blood for research or whatever? Something about my toxin resistance?

I know we don't always get along, so I brought some charcoal as a peace offering. That's what you Mortkrankies needed, right?

And I guess I'd also like to thank you for helping out Towa when he was blarfing up half-digested meat and blood.... thank you I guess

oh right, I was also told to get checked up for adding salt to my water? I don't know why though... it's just a personal preference...

I'm not even going to address that first statement.

And yes, we're going to need to examine whatever it is that makes you so resistant to poisons because you don't have the makeup of Towa. As for the charcoal.....we need activated charcoal, it's a medicinal supplement for ridding the body of toxins. But I'm sure we can find a use for that lump as well.

Towa is my boyfriend, there's no need to thank me for taking care of my own partner. But I am grateful you alerted me to him when you did. I appreciate that.

....salt? If you find yourself lacking minerals, you should really try drinking mineral water or adding supplements to your diet. Table salt will not provide the extra sodium you require.

[cockringvarric]

any chance you could drop a link to buy the sunscreen you mentioned if you get a chance? i genuinely believe it might change my life :) thanks!

Sure but I am NOT an expert in skincare at all! I tried a mineral one and it was nice but then the saleslady showed me like three others once I told her idc about chemicals lol. all four had slightly different immediate textures (more lotion to more serum, etc) but dried down pretty much the same (at least to me) to be non-greasy. still had to wipe down my fingers after rubbing them all in on different parts of my arm. a little went a looong way and still was one MILLION times better than that cunt neutrogena

anyways. I didnt take down the names of the testers and I just went with the cheapest option lol, Bioré UV Aqua Rich:

[starry-stan-blog]

this is the first time that we get a different character’s perspective on the effect of luo binghe’s death on shen qingqiu.

sqq is flippant about binghe’s death, and from his perspective, he manages to spin the narrative convincingly enough that, as readers, you almost believe that he truly isn’t affected by lbh’s fall.

however, gongyi xiao can tell instantly that sqq is mourning. I think sqq is up to his neck in denial. he just had to go against every moral and feeling he had to push his favourite character—favourite person—into what lbh believed was certain death.

that’s got to hurt.

[femmefatalevibe]

hello, gorgeous. im starting college soon and im on my way to become a femme fatale, so i have two questions for you

1. how can i incorporate the femme fatale way of being into academia?

2. what things/brands are affordable for a college student? i’d love to wear high-quality clothes like the ones you recommend, but i can’t afford them. are there any other products/services that i could add to my routine for a cheap price?

thank you so much in advance xx

Hi love! Congratulations on starting this new chapter of your life <3

Here are my thoughts:

1. how can i incorporate the femme fatale way of being into academia?

Understand the importance and power of:

Knowing how to learn, study, and get in the practice of regularly acquiring new information

Understanding how to work through concepts, set goals, and clearly communicate your thoughts to better articulate a concept or build a case/argument

Becoming a better writer, reader, and remaining focused/prioritized when it comes to your tasks and to-do list

Learning how to absorb information and apply this knowledge to different situations/areas of life through these acquired skill sets/methodology

Developing important self-presentation skills through presentations, written/verbal communication/networking

Refining your aptitude for pattern recognition, gaining more insight into human nature/what makes people tick, and learning how to persuade/seduce others through your words/insights

2. what things/brands are affordable for a college student? i’d love to wear high-quality clothes like the ones you recommend, but i can’t afford them. are there any other products/services that i could add to my routine for a cheap price?

Totally get it! Budgets are particularly tight for many college students.

For a service option, I would say I recommend Rent The Runway (I believe it's around $100/month for 10ish items rotated throughout the month).

For more affordable alternatives, I would say your best bet is to dig deep into the sale sections of department stores/The Outnet and similar e-commerce sites by utilizing all the filters you need (budget, size, colors, item type, etc.).

If you're searching for more affordable brands generally, I would say some of the highest quality affordable brands available are:

Express: The "Body Contour" line has amazing basics and I love their Editor High-Waisted Flare Trousers (these might be too professional for what you need right now), but I've heard they have very solid denim and shirting options, too!

Oak & Fort (I prefer them to Everlane/Abercrombie TBH)

Quince (for washable silks, cashmere and basics for $40-$70)

4th & Reckless (a lot of their items are on sale for $25-$50!)

Because of Alice (Outlet) – mostly under $70

Pixie Market (sale items are often around $50-70)

Banana Republic (especially the sale section)

Everlane/Abercrombie have their gems – some of the trouser/outerwear quality is iffy, though

Lioness/DISSH

Frankie Shop (in-house brand – on sale it's similar to Mango prices)

Maniere de Voir (mostly under/around $100, TOP quality for the price)

Shoprumored

Mango/COS (better than other fast fashion choices, IMO)

Hope this helps xx

the amount of shein clothes that are sold as grunge and goth on resell websites like vinted is absurd. i’m so frustrated. it’s the most un-goth thing ever to buy from shein. i just want cool pants that weren’t made by exploited workers or children. why is that so impossible
