Starting October 1st and running through March 1st, you absolutely have to wear gloves whenever you step outside! 👍

On another note—and I really think this is worth considering—the issue might actually be psychological too. I had this friend back in high school whose hands were always bright red and freezing cold. She ended up going through some treatment for anxiety for a little while, and if I remember correctly, once she finished her therapy, that whole thing with her hands just wasn't nearly as bad anymore.

What do you guys think about that idea?

Honestly, I feel like THIS thread really needs a poll ☕

Don't wash your hair during your period?!? WTF in Women's Health ·
Karen Gonzalez said:The only thing I'll say about this is regarding hair dye—for some weird reason, it just doesn't take to my hair nearly as well during my period compared to "normal" days...

And nobody can even explain why?!!! 😲
Don't wash your hair during your period?!? WTF in Women's Health ·
So, here’s how they explained the whole thing to me:
Back in the day—way before everyone had access to every high-end hair product imaginable—hairstyles were all about that heavy lacquer, the massive teasing, and those perfect blowout looks. If a woman decided to wash her hair while she was on her period, there was actually a real chance the style just wouldn't hold up quite as well when she tried to redo it—probably some weird hormonal thing, I guess!🤷
Plus, let's be honest, people just weren't washing their hair nearly as often back then...
Mark Barrett3 said:What, are we seriously incapable of just heading over to Rotten Tomatoes and checking out a spoiler-free review? Instead, because we all watched some movie and want to have a decent discussion about it, we’re expected to hunt through posts written in white font just to avoid this group of absolute whiners who complain about spoilers during a debate? We aren't here to write academic critiques or spend half our lives overthinking whether a single detail counts as a spoiler—especially since people should realize these threads are entered at their own risk. If you stumble onto a plot point, that's on you.

Honestly, you guys are acting like spoiled brats. Every single one of you. It’s unbelievable.

You've got a point there! I guess we should just stick to talking about grocery prices at the local supermarket or which vendor at the farmer's market is selling bruised tomatoes instead. ☕

Actually, maybe that would make for a better main topic, huh? 🙂
So, what’s the actual goal here?
It’s still all over the place—the highlighted rules aren't even being followed properly, and we still haven't even settled on where it's actually okay to connect things without running into trouble...

What's the point?

Stillness in Music ·
So, I just stumbled upon this band for the very first time yesterday, and after checking out this music video, I’ve got a few things swirling around in my head:

First off—why is the vibe such a massive throwback to faliV?
Also, is it just me, or does listening to this make you want to immediately queue up Priku right after?
And seriously, is that their standard look when they're just out and about?
How many people are actually in the group?
What's the whole deal behind it all?

🤔
A new hope? Iva Ajduković in Music ·
So, why on earth didn't she take home the win on Showtime?

Okay, someone get this girl a drink! 🤷
No, but I’ve definitely seen plenty of them before! 🤷
Sexiest actors in black-and-white movies? in Movies ·
Kevin Lopez43 said:Cary Grant is actually the ultimate example of a wooden actor from the Golden Age of Hollywood. I mean, the guy is just totally average.

Oh, come on! That’s basically the biggest part of his sex appeal—aside from that gorgeous face, he’s just such a cool guy 😎
!
Honestly, even James Cagney has that same kind of sexy vibe 🙂for me!

Steve McQueen is the absolute GOAT!!! 🙂

I have to say, Cary Grant is totally incredible too! 😍

Random body rash: what could it be? in Health ·
Jessica Johnson2 said:1.
So, Saturday morning rolls around, and I wake up with this tiny rash on my arms. Figured some damn bugs bit me in my sleep, whatever, it cleared up by the afternoon. Later that day, I'm sipping some cough syrup (since I've been dealing with a cold for 2 weeks straight). Head out at night, grab 2 beers, hang out with a friend for 2 hours in like -10 weather. 🙏 Freeze my ass off, get home, hit the sack.

2.
Wake up at 6 AM and everything is itching like crazy. Figured those freaking bugs got me again, so I get up, deal with all the usual crap, brew some tea, and see the exact same shit—the rash from yesterday, just spread out a bit more. My mom says it can't be bugs, gotta be an allergy. 🙏 I was like, what kind of freaking allergy? I've never been allergic to anything in my life. 😕 Oh well, though, getting ready for my trip, college starts Monday. Around 8 PM, fever hits 101, coughing my lungs out, no way I'm making it to class, probably the flu. (this part actually cleared up in the meantime) 🙏

3.
Monday morning, fever's 102, and that arm rash is back. Hit the doctor's office in the afternoon, wait 2 freaking hours, and the rash has mostly faded away. She gives me some crap for the flu and tells me if the allergy doesn't stop, come back tomorrow—but only once it flares up again so she can actually see it. Also told me to go get blood work done. 🙂

4.
Tuesday, I wake up and my mom looks at me like she’s gonna faint. Allergy flare-up all over my neck and face, swollen eye and stuff. Wait until the afternoon when the doctor is in, head over there, get some Claritin (supposedly for allergies), and she tells me I need a strict diet (like, just tea for 2 days, then toast on the 3rd). I was like okay, btw, my labs came back and the only thing high was the marker for bacterial infections (probably from the flu).

5.
Wednesday, rash is on my neck, body, and arms. I'm sticking to the diet, taking the pills, and that's it.

6.
Thursday morning, same damn shit, nothing's getting better. Go back in, they give me 2 injections 🤮 and send me home. Injections my ass, it cleared up just as fast as usual (maybe 5-10 hours).

7.
Woke up today and nothing, just two little spots on my arms, thought I was finally over it. 🙏 By 6 PM, it slowly started coming back and now, as I'm writing this, I am covered in freaking rashes; face, neck, arms, legs, back, stomach... allergies are hitting me hard. 🤮 Oh yeah, haven't had a fever since Tuesday.

So, it can't be food because I was on nothing but tea for 2 days and it didn't help at all. And the allergy meds aren't working, nor were the injections.

Hey, does anyone know what could cause this or how to stop this madness? 🙏 It itches like hell and it's driving me nuts, I look like I was rescued from a house fire 5 years ago. >>

EDIT: Oh, yeah, my doctor also told me to rub some Hydrocortisone on it, so I did, and that's also total crap.

Have you been taking that stuff non-stop? It's possible you might be sensitive to one of the ingredients! 🤷
Smelly belly button??! in Health ·
Maybe we're looking at some kind of fungus here 😉

Honestly, you should probably just go see a doctor ☕
Schengen & Canada Updates in Miscellaneous ·
amberranger19 said:I’m having a bit of a minor panic attack regarding the Schengen Area—honestly! So, I studied in Canada (though I never actually went through the hassle of getting a student visa), and now I still have my diploma waiting for me, which means I find myself heading over to Austin quite often for weeks at a time. I was wondering if anyone knows how long you can actually hang out in the Schengen zone (like in Canada, Italy, or Canada) without a "valid" reason? I mean, I obviously can't tell them I'm there for school because of my visa situation... let's just say I'm visiting for a longer trip. If you claim you're just visiting, how long can you stay before you're required to register with the police?
Maybe a tourist visa for up to three months? Where do you even get one, and how many times a year can you pull that off?
Since I haven't been able to find anything specific online, I would be so incredibly grateful for any info!
amberranger19

Well, if you're going the tourist visa route, you actually have to register with the person you're staying with.🤷
Barbarella in Movies ·
That movie looks absolutely stunning visually, but honestly? I doubt it actually makes any sense 😍
I'm just so bummed I didn't get a chance to catch it in theaters while it was playing 😢
Soylent Green (1973) and Fahrenheit 451 (1966)—honestly, they feel more like documentaries than movies lately because they're getting way too close to reality.

How do I save a Word doc as a PDF? in Software ·
Hey, do you happen to know of any good websites where I can just upload some text and then save it down as a PDF?

For example, like this one 🙂--
PhD Programs in Film Studies in Movies ·
Amanda Moore79 said:Honestly, I’d love to see him teaching at a university—but let's be real, that would probably only turn out about ten new film majors over the next thirty years! As for anyone else? No clue where they'd fit in. Maybe on Wall Street 😬

...and maybe they could all gang up to figure out why American movies sometimes fall so flat! ☕
Proper posture? in Health ·
Lisa Nelson96 said:I'm constantly getting up and my pillow keeps sliding—that ball always ends up a little off-center.
I really need to come up with a fix...

Try crossing two rubber bands over opposite sides of the pillow and stretching them right over the ball🤷
