I have a silk epil 5. I havent had any issues with battery life. It's painful when you start epilating because all your hairs are gonna be full thickness. After pulling the hairs out a couple times it gets a lot less painful because the new hairs are a lot thinner and younger. It doesn't hurt at all anymore for me. For hairs that are already thin, epilating doesn't work very well, since the tweezers cant grab on.

I view epilating as a supplemental hair removal method though. It doesn't make the legs perfectly smooth, but it makes hair so thin and so slow growing that I shave probably twice a week. And I only epilate once every 3 or 4 weeks.

It also seems to only work on my legs and thighs. Ive tried epilating my belly and thats what gave me a bunch of ingrown hairs.

Guys I don't think "shitty cis dude" is supposed to imply that all cis dudes are shitty. Here it's just a particularly shitty example of one.

Abortion is illegal in half the fucking country. It's not the Democrat half. Shut the fuck up.

A vagina is not exclusive to afab people. Post-op trans folks can gain and lose them.

It's been a week since I watched it but there's a part about halfway through that doesn't make much sense to me.

When talking about hypervisors he goes on about the slow speeds and poor hardware compatibility, but I'm not sure those two things are endemic to hypervisors.

I'll give some tips.

Glass nail files can help keep the nails from splitting at the tips.

moisturizing the nails seems to make them a little more durable too. They make special stuff for this, but I just use regular moisturizer.

some polishes need more than one (or even two!) coats.

certain colors seem to behave differently than other colors ie: yellow polishes are much harder to work with than red.

don't get as worried about the finish until you put the top coat on. The top coat hides a lot of irregularities.

experiment with different base coats and top coats. They can produce wildly different effects. some base coats are simple and durable, while others can have ridge filling properties, and others still can be peelable. Top coats also vary in quality and effect like having matte finishes or extra sparkles.

If you ever struggle to open a bottle, run it under hot water for a while and try again.

They also make ridge filling base coats which can reduce the ridged look on the polish. I haven't tried them though so I dunno how well they work.

The vehicle levels in halo were better, but at least I could drive the airboat for longer than 30 seconds without flipping it.
