Onewheel pint off FB marketplace for $300.

Showed up, turned it on and the light came on without any issues and the tire was deflated (neglected for a few years bc the guy bought a new one. Also the guy was a dad who died, so his son was selling it.) I assumed it worked. Got home, tried to start it, and I bonked the pavement with the front. Apparently the sensor was broken and it costed $150 to replace.

is it worth it? for 300, yes 100%. for 500… ehhhhh.

edit: also thinking of starting a sub about onewheels

does it feel good or something because I imagine it just feels weird

based admin

holy shit they fixed the issue which made it really difficult to use on mobile. I might actually consider switching off duckduckgo

if you searched something and pressed the images tab then back swiped it would go back to the homepage and not to the homepage of your search results

are you gonna answer the question orrr

my dad had 2 really expensive big ones die, so we just moved back to the shitty 1080 one from like a decade ago

I second bricks. If it matters I’m in the southern US

how does this make you feel?

shaving as a trans women (both facial and body)

Phillips Oneblade $50

intended for men with a beard, waterproof and lithium battery.

honestly a letdown in literally every way for me. Not a close shave at all and other electric ones do way better in that regard. Also not a lot of area for legs and doesn’t even give the smooth leg feeling >:(
Upside that there’s not really any chance for ingrown hairs, which means it’s pretty good for the pubic area. I don’t shave down there often though. (obligatory I am NOT the intended target for this product)

face: 5/10
body: 1/10
pubic: 9/10

ladyshave $18

this is intended for women’s leg hair. Not waterproof and takes 2 AA batteries.

pretty good actually. It’s wide and gets close enough for me. As advertised. I use on legs before IPL.

face: 3/10 (works in a pinch)
body: 7/10
pubic: 6/10

men’s razors $?

I actually have a permanent scar on my thumb from when I was about 7 and messed with my dads in the shower lol

when I hit puberty I just used my dads old one with new heads, his ‘guidance’ was pretty unhelpful for me because I thought they were for legs too and got a bunch of red dots / nicks because of it especially because I was really shy about shaving and was too scared to ask for shaving cream. works well enough for what it’s intended for, though it’s annoying to setup and use. Use a women’s for body if you can.

face: 7/10 (with cream)
body: 3/10 (w/o cream)
pubic: 0/10 (w/o cream)

Women’s razor $?

I don’t love wet shaving but this is pretty good!
also, ALWAYS get the Gillette Venus ones. I’ve tried other ones and they’re not as good and I always go back despite being more expensive.
gets clogged easy though.

facial: why/10
body: 9/10
pubic: 7/10 (will get clogged)

women’s whatever the fuck

I left the handle part at home but for body this is the BEST, but is pretty clunky and expensive. reallly smooth and is amazing. however I wish the handle part wasn’t just a big knub because it’s difficult to do under the knee and behind the back

facial: no/10
body: 10/10 🥰
pubic: 3/10

flat edge razor $5

I got it on a DAMN cheap sale on Amazon, assume it’s like 15. It said it was a “small business” from the US but I really doubt that due to the marketing and and assume it’s just something from China.
Anyways, it works really well, too well. Even if you’re really careful you’ll feel a random stinging somewhere and look down and see blood. I feel like there’s a skill floor I just have to learn but I have better alternatives. REALLY cheap blades though, like 15-50 cents.

I also threw it away because I would use the blades to selfharm (7 months clean except for an accident 🎉).

facial: x/10 (too risky for me)
body: 7/10
pubic: 2/10 (wayy too risky, don’t try)

Braun 3 epilator $40

I lost it :<

this is a biblically accurate tweezer as my sister called it. She was too wimpy to use it and gave it to me. Lemme just say it HURTS the first time. Like on the floor crying hurts. Second time too. After a couple rounds it gets way better. However this one particularly doesn’t ways pull out the hairs and can if you push down too hard you’ll stop it which can be really annoying when you one hair that just won’t get out. It will also
also sometimes you’ll find ingrown hairs that you can’t get because it’s underneath the skin so I’ll get a craft razor blade and ever so slightly hook it and go in with tweezers to pull it out. This is where the self harm accident earlier came from lol

but in return 3 WEEKS OF NO HAIR!!

exfoliate before, then use, then rinse with cold water and use unscented moisturizer, next day use TendSkin.
if you don’t follow this to a T you’ll get hella ingrown hairs.

face: no
body: 9/10
pubic: ok story time. one of my afab epilated their pubic area before having sex with their s/o and oh my God they regretted it SO bad. it hurt a TON. I imagine if you’re into pain it’ll work I guess??

braun 5 IPL $300

got this for Christmas and was essentially my only product. You use it after shaving (not epilation) I haven’t been consistently using it because epilate mostly. Can’t give a good review.

Braun Epilator (iirc v7 or v8?) $80

still in mail 🥲

Nair

use mens. women’s ones suck and hardly do anything on amab hair. Also mens suck too, but it’s better.

Phillips 5d electric

(I have it IRL, my cats just laying down next to me and id wake her up) for me it’s the GOAT of facial hair. Used it for years and absolutely love it. It just works. My use case for facial hair is pretty odd because I just have long sideburns that go down to the jawbone and some random ones under my chin. For my pretty uncommon use case it is AMAZING. Can’t really recommend it for others but if you just have long sideburns get this 100%

in conclusion

I epilate and as it’s growing in I use the chunky one for now the back to the Gillette Venus once my heads are gone.
If I’m IPL-ing I either use a Gillette Venus or ladyshave.

if anyone else has done this with skincare products let me know, I have some questions :)

explain how the people who always have the newest iPhone and show it off to all their friends DONT think it’s a status symbol

better yet explain how, I, the person with a several year old android phone who HATES apple considers an iphone more important than they do

you definitely have, they probably just didn’t mention it to you specifically

I imagine genetic traits like down syndrome or bodily mutations would be a lot less common.
Autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety too depending on what kinda healthcare this fictional society has.
if it’s anything like plastic surgery, nothing will happen except maybe down syndrome and bodily mutations.

if it’s cheap though people are gonna go ALLL out on bodily cosmetics. Id want a spiky dick with one of those spiky balls at the end like that one dinosaurs tail.

I offer a rebuttal: plastic surgery exists and is a hell of a lot cheaper than genetic engineering is, and I wouldn’t say people are hotter. The rich ones, 1000%. Your every day people, probably not.

not having to fiddle with eyeliner would be amazing though

if it helps people like me have a 50% suicide attempt rate by my age

…I’m 18

never self checkout… unless 18+ items are involved.
other than that or stealing literally no cashier will care or even remember you.

source: am cashier at grocery store

that’s awesome but my God my ADHD ass could not wait weeks for a response 😭
id leave them on read for like 4 months because I can’t find a stamp or something and forgot about it

Gen Z here. I think you’d be surprised to find that gen z generally hates ai slop. Specifically the slop, most people are ok with some AI use.

For llms It’s seen the same way I imagine search engines were (I was born after Google existed). People can just find an answer for their problem instead of searching for it in a book or asking someone. This can either be amazing for learning new things, or for cheating. My professors even tell me to USE ai to learn, just know how to actually use it to help learn rather than get the correct answer and be done with it.

formula 1 onboard sounds. I’m not kidding, it’s SO relaxing

edit: I forgot to mention that I also hear the team radios and can hear them say stuff, so sometimes I’ll be dreaming and my brain will just add in lewis Hamilton or some shit lmao

meh not that bad compared to most other names

I know right, it’s so much easier to source virgin blood yourself!
