yeah, I've been wondering how much I should be sharing about my political opinions now... and a little concerned about my 15+ years of social media history.

this is really cool!

I hope you don't mind some hyper-detailed constructive criticism :) I don't know how to use Blender, but I'm good with faces and watched a loooot of Supernatural back in the day.

• while the bridge of Jensen's nose is pretty narrow, his lower nostrils are quite a bit wider than that, and the tip of his nose is a little more upturned.
• his nose is also more angular. I'd take a look at multiple pictures of him with various different kinds of lighting to see it more easily, but here's a good one:

-cheekbones are also more angular and (I think?) protrude slightly more in front. hard to explain. I think this pic shows it more clearly though

• cheekbones are also too wide
• lips are slightly too wide, too, and the upper vermilion border is more rounded/doesn't "swoop down" like that, so to speak. you got the pout down, though. lol
• his face shorter than that; there's too much space between the bottom of his nose/lips and lips/chin.
• I also want to say that his chin is slightly wider than that.

hope at least one of these things helps!

do you have nothing better to do than to complain over and over and over again about the posts of a single user?

the block button exists for a reason, if it upsets you this much.

I started 6, but so far I've only completed the first level. I feel like I'm letting our beloved Miyazaki down. 😔

one day I'll play it for real.

I know I'm very late to this, but I thought I'd add a couple more ideas, in case you still need help.

• ginger. seriously, it's so effective (for me, at least), and relatively cheap. you can even buy it in capsules.

• peppermint oil. I get the worst motion sickness while riding the bus near me. I put just 1-3 drops inside my mask and it helps a lot. you might be able to just take a whiff of the bottle and get some relief, tbh

• it doesnt really sound like this is the case, but do you drink coffee or tea on an empty stomach? I used to be able to, but now the tannins always make me sick. :(

• I would suggest keeping a record of when it happens/for how long, what you ate/drank that day, what hygeine/skincare/cleaning products you're using, how much sleep you got the night before, if it's worse/better certain parts of your cycle, ect. it might help narrow things down.

I really hope your gyno takes you seriously. it sounds like you may need better doctors.

I can definitely understand why someone would feel so nostalgic about them, as a fellow commie. personally, I really enjoyed our mall's general vibe around Christmastime especially. I associate them with a more carefree time, as well.

As for me, I really miss acting. was in musicals and drama/humor speech competitions all 4 years of high school, and even went to states/nationals for the latter, then acting classes in college. it's such a satisfying creative outlet for me.

I suppose I could start doing it again now, but the time investment would be so much more significant than it was when I was in school, and I cant help but think that my time would be better spent toward something more "productive".

also, the daycare I went to as a little kid used to serve us soy sauce flavored ramen with mashed potatoes (including butter/milk). so healthy! 😬 I really loved it, though, as long as the noodles weren't overcooked. I could go for some now.

in addition to a lot of others already mentioned (there's a lot of overlap)

History:

• Step Back History

culture/politics:

• Shanspeare
• FD Signifier

writing/education:

• Zoe Bee

media/ect:

• Tale Foundry (technically about writing fiction, but they also discuss media in general along with its themes, character archetypes, ect. it's more interesting than it sounds)

• Pop Culture Detective

• Jacob Geller (mostly video games)

• My Little Thought Tree (also psychology)

• Broey Deschanel

there are more ways to take action than to vote.

I'm just as dissolutioned with the voting system as you are, but I'm also aware that sitting around complaining and acting like you know better than everyone else is only obnoxious accomplishes nothing.

either do literally anything at all to contribute, or go find an empty room to whinge into. I'm sure you'll enjoy the echo.

and that's a reason to stop trying altogether?

edit: a word

right. I'm sure your self-righteousness, apathy and inaction are going to be a great asset when it comes to building a "better future".

yes, but it's a systemic problem at its root
