Elissimpark posted:I think the effectiveness of not-shampooing really depends where you live. I managed to last a couple of months in a rural Australian city, but the first time I went to an actual metropolitan centre, my hair went crazy greasy. where you live also affects how hard/soft your water is and how chlorinated it is. So a blanket "you can go without showering/using soap this many days" statement isn't exactly appropriate. If you're going to go soapless, at least use baking soda or whatever it is that people use instead. God Hole has a new favorite as of 09:22 on Feb 13, 2019 |

I also have blond and extremely thin hair, so the end of shift my hair is always much more flat. For the longest time I was trying to find information on less shampooing but all of the website that talk about it are run by gross hippies. A couple of years ago I did find one that wasn't and while I can't remember what website it is the answer is basically you just got to scrub a lot longer and a lot harder than you think. Just take your fingertips and palms and really scrub your hair for what feels like forever under the shower until you very definitely feel the texture change. It also takes longer/more work to dry, but I'm down to shampooing once a week, and my hair is very fluffy and less oily overall.

Going with minimal shampoo is v different from going with no soap, also. If anyone reading this has like, shoulder-length or longer hair and shampoos every loving day well, I salute your dedication and the amount of time you spend with wet hair.

And I can live with fascism. We've basically been living in it since 2001 despite the new outpouring of rhetoric that started in 2008.

If you're in the US then you've basically been in it since the 50's. '01 launched the new police state and the "cops are heroes" attitude. Trump is barely a blip on the "fascist" scale of US history.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Going with minimal shampoo is v different from going with no soap, also. I have shoulder-length hair and I run almost every day, my hair gets gross with sweat so I more or less wash it daily. (Daily with water and conditioner, once a week with shampoo.) Drying takes less than ten minutes: I wrap my hair in a towel for two or three minutes, which removes a lot of the water, and then I go at it with a hairdryer. Done.

I'm always tired, my legs always hurt, I eat all the foods because I have to make up for lost calories, in this season it's cold as gently caress, in Summer it's hot as gently caress, I have to shower daily, I have to wash my running clothes daily, I have to plan ahead to have enough time to go running, and sometimes I trip on something and eat poo poo on the pavement and it hurts like hell.

docbeard posted:Showers feel nice.  I would literally spend hours in the shower some days if my hot water didn't run out. Baths, on the other hand, are loving awful. You're sitting on a hard, uncomfortable surface in a pool of rapidly-cooling water that bits of you are sticking out of. There's no room to move or relax and from the moment you get in it's all downhill since the water's only going to get colder and the cramped and uncomfortable conditions are only going to get to you more and more.

Just watched Lawrence of Arabia for the first time. It was a gorgeous vacation slideshow, but it was boring and missed the point of "motion pictures." I would happily spend 30 minutes appreciating the photo gallery that the movie actually wants to be.

The part that bugs me is that a lot of them seem to be americans themselves and make the same mistake of assuming all american chocolate=hersheys and talk about the butyric acid and how we love vomit and that all american bread = wonderbread. You live here, unless you don't shop for yourself (we all know this is the reason) or only shop at gas stations you should know there is more quality out there. I mean, it's hard to beat the swiss/belgians at it but they aren't chocolate wizards with a magic formula that can't be reproduced, there are companies in america that make similar quality stuff. also dark chocolate isn't superior, it's just different. The people who go on and on about how milk and white chocolate (cue the "but that's not even chocolate!" crew) are "cloying" just come off as sounding like people with no concept of moderation and just shovel the entire bar into their mouth.

Mu Zeta posted:Running every day sounds like hell Tired all the time, hungry all the time, unable to stop running for more than a day without feeling horrible about myself. But in ridiculously good shape, get to eat everything in sight, and don't get winded walking up a flight of stairs like 95% of all Americans. It has its ups and downs. Once you begin to tolerate the sight of your toenails turning black and falling off every once in awhile, you're good.

I like white mochas from starbucks but sadly they are like million calories a drink so I have them rarely Dunno if they include actual white chocolate, which doesn’t repulse me but I dunno if I’d ever choose it over another sweet. Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 19:03 on Feb 14, 2019 |

White chocolate is extremely bomb, but so is super dark chocolate, and all in between. In summary, chocolate is a land of delicious contrasts.
