At least winter is comfortable inside. Summers get so warm now that there’s often no escape from the heat. Where I live AC used to be completely unnecessary so rental apartments with AC basically don’t exist.
And as someone with a delayed circadian rhythm I also hate daylight saving time. I don’t want to get up an hour earlier every day. Why do morning people get to force their lifestyle on us?
I’m also trans and my experience has been basically the same so far. It fluctuates, I overall get horny much less often, but when I do it’s way more intense.
I know the struggle, it sucks! One thing that helps a lot is applying nail/cuticle oil religiously. Especially after contact with water, water really dries out your nails.
I've gotten really good at painting my nails over the past few years and I have some fancy nail polishes I like to use. I especially enjoy magnetic ones, my favourite is probably Deep Space from ILNP! I don't have any recent pictures unfortunately and the older ones don't live up to my current standards 😬
When it comes to actual nail art I'm still a beginner, but I'd like to get better at that too! I bought some brushes a few months ago but I haven't practiced that much with them yet. My first attempt wasn't terrible but definitely not as clean as I would like. And some of the layers I painted on top were a bit too thick. I've also tried to make a gradient with a sponge, I love that look. I'm still having issues with not making a huge mess there, the liquid latex I'm using really doesn't want to cooperate.
Amazing nails by the way! How did you make that pattern? The ring looks pretty unique too, I love it.
That's weirdly affirming, I actually have three of these and it would be four if I had a car. Although these days I also like to use a sparkly lip oil instead.
I have ADHD and most likely autism, although the latter isn’t diagnosed (yet). I feel like these two are very much at odds with each other here. I struggle with social situations and just general uncertainty or unknown things. Planning things in advance, or at least researching everything that could be relevant, helps me cope with this. Also, once I’m mentally prepared to do something my brain really doesn’t like it when plans change. But otherwise, in environments where I’m more comfortable, I’m very much a “going with the flow” kind of person. My energy levels fluctuate a lot and schedules typically don’t work well for me. So I don’t make any most of the time.
