Being the only guy who works in a beauty store is fucking hilarious sometimes. Im the only one who can sell our shitty beard shampoo and a not insignificant amount of our customers think im untrustworthy. According to my coworkers i use every mens product we have so they can get dudes to buy a shaving cream. Trying to explain to people that theres no difference between "men's" and "women's" products is like talking to a brick wall. Ive had multiple women get angry with me for sampling them out one of our "men's" moisturizers when they specifically said they wanted a mattifying one to control oil and that's the best one we have for those two things. I still think about the guy who came in asking if we had "masks for men." I contemplate ending it all every time someone returns a completely unused product that they absolutely refuse to try just because it either says or doesnt say "for men" on it. 90% of the time its the perfect product for them. I had a lady who was willing to buy a worse product for her needs that was more expensive just so it wouldnt say it was for men. Are you ever tired? Are you ever exhausted? These are the same kinds of people who say that im the one whos obsessed with gendering everything because im trans.

Staring.
He'd been staring for what felt like an eternity at his blinding phone screen, casted almost entirely in darkness except for the faint light that poured in from the windows behind him.
It took another eternity before Tony finally hit the green call button. He held his phone up to his ear, bloodshot eyes drifting to his other hand.
Vaguely, he noted how his blood looked like ink weeping out of his skin.

Continued from this @riceball-galore
Her smile kept on her face as she brought up the empty grocery bags, trying to keep her peachy self. Orihime was always so proud of herself and the creative ideas that would ring in her head.
"I am out grocery shopping today, trying to gather some things for dinner today. What are you doing out here?" She looked around for a moment and Rukai seemed to be by herself, maybe she was taking a break? The ginger didn't really remember or think that she might be on duty, so she just let the first thing out of her mouth fly. "Do you want to join me? Food is much more enjoyable when you have company!" She sounded very eager to have someone join, if Rukia would join.
Rukia blinked, noting that Orihime did indeed have money clutched in one hand. A cloth grocery bag hanging from the other hand as she walked. It would indeed seem that the girl was going grocery shopping.
"Oh, I was just heading back from Urahara's shop." She tilted her head slightly as she considered her offer. She normally ate whatever Ichigo brought up to his closet for her. But perhaps it would be nice to have a proper meal with a friend. Such things were always difficult for Rukia.
"But I would enjoy going with you. In truth, I haven't had an opportunity to look through the stores around here. What do you still need?"

“Y-yeah…” Crap, the similarity is bound to raise some suspicion, right? Usually he was much more careless with this, but since he’d been fully intending to become a regular here, he can’t risk being found out. Alright, he got this. He just had to order something completely different. “Anyway, I’ll uh, take black coffee with no sugar or milk, please.”

hello!!
for anyone who may have been keeping up with this long thread, my family (me, my mom, and our three cats) has been living in a hotel/motel room for the last almost 3 months after being kicked out of our last place for two months of rent nonpayment as we couldn't afford the raise in price with my mom's income (i do not have an income).
well, we have a place!!!!!! that we can afford with mom's income!!!!!!
with a small issue. unfortunately, we, of course, do not have funds to move in right now. it's $948.73 to move in on Sept 23rd, or $1,498 for Oct 1st. we cannot currently afford either of these obviously, but we really want to move in asap and get out of this room.
i do believe my mom is applying for help with things, but i do not know details at the moment.
of course, we also need the money for a moving truck, and likely people to help us move, given the family that helped us move out of the last place can't help move in, BUT we are more worried about getting the money to pay for the deposit and rent for when we move in.
if anyone has the ability to help us, we will be eternally grateful. i have art commissions open! and will happily draw for you!
you can either contact me via dms here to talk, or you can go through my kofi commissions!
i also have a goal set up on kofi for this!
thank you to everyone who has helped so far, and everyone who may help in the future! it means so much to us! <3

As someone who is qualified to talk about over the counter skincare the way all sides of the internet talk about skincare are equally infuriating

Behold: my Odd Squad Photoshop edits from high school Photoshop class! I may not be able to draw well on a tablet but damn these are fine edits.
Top-left edit is unfinished -- I never went back to finish it and I don't have the PSD file anymore so it is what it is. Might take a crack at it again someday if I can get access to a computer that can actually support Photoshop, though...

I couldn't turn the colorful ones into jewelry yet bc I don't have the necessary parts, but they're all stiffened and ready! Two pairs of earrings, two bracelets, one choker. so much work.
