has anyone else crammed the night before so badly to the point they can’t even sleep when it’s time to end the study session so now you’re lying in bed wasting precious sleep time counting down the hours till your exam knowing you’re ultimately cooked beyond belief?

Sorry for mid lighting, TBH i’m procrastinating on late night studying … Also apologies for my awkward demeanor
This is my face with pretty bare makeup (some smudged mascara i didn’t fully remove lol). I don’t feel very feminine, and have been called masculine many times. Last two photos are with my hair tucked back, to show my face best.(i don’t take photos of myself much, it’s about all i have)
Should i lean down? Gain weight? People tell me conflicting things about my face fat. Should i consider a nose job for my septum and nose bridge? What work should I also get done?
Please be honest. No « Don’t be insecure », « Be confident », just help me please. I don’t really care for camera/picture taking as im more focused on real life improvement than online presence.

This is my face with pretty bare makeup. I’m a neutral tone girl (i did the vein test). I don’t feel very feminine, and have been called masculine many times. 1st two photos are with my hair tucked back, to show my face best. Two last photos are in better lighting, albeit harsh (i don’t take photos of myself much, it’s about all i have)

From the video, she said it was vintage but that’s about it. Does any fashion historian know? I want to base my wedding dress on this

All of them. Yes, all, are pure scams. This subreddit doesn’t have any moderation on that regard, so i recommend r/IBO.
DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY.

Am i overreacting? I, 17F, and my friend, « Mia » (not her real name), 18F, have been school-friends for about 3 years now. Mia is chinese, and very clearly ethnic, while I, on the other hand, am mixed (but mostly indigenous).
I have dark, naturally black hair and an olive/pale complexion, with Māori facial features. The thing is, we live in Canada, so the exposure to other Māori is pretty non existent. Her, I, and another chinese girl are in a trio friend group, and we generally get along pretty well. My issue arises in the fact that she comments (relatively often) on how i’m the ‘white’ one in the friend group. Despite her knowing, and me explaining many times my heritage, she always says « Well, you look white ».
At first, this didn’t bother me too much, since i doubt someone with little knowledge on indigenous new zealanders would understand (of course, lol), but overtime it started to annoy me.
I wear ancestral jewelry from time to time. I’m somewhat vocal about my background and make no effort to ‘hide it’. I firmly identify as indigenous. It frustrates me beyond belief, because i feel it’s so ignorant. In the same time, I feel that i can’t blame her, because I’ve been told I look caucasian by others (often guessed as european or west asian).
Am i being too sensitive or ‘woke’? Do other indigenous people experience this? How can i tell her this?

Im interested in the physics side of this discussion. Besides being personally pro-nuclear in terms of environmental and societal good, i’m curious on what that could entail in terms of human knowledge. Could we make commercial fusion reactors one day? Or reactors on other planets to maximize energy?
