June is pride month! The T often gets forgotten or excluded in the LGBT community. How included do you feel?

Hi friends! I'm looking to buy a fragrance and am hoping you guys might have some suggestions.

I want something that screams "peach" without being powdery or overly floral. I'm hoping for something gourmand/lactic (but not overly sweet!), fruity, or lightly floral (wearable in the daytime), or to go in another direction completely, something peach with spice, an evening scent sort of like Angel Share Paradis by Kilian (but peach instead of raspberry).

I'm more interested in perfumes, less interested in body sprays, but will give anything a shot.

Things I've already tried include Phlur's Apricot Privée, Phlur's Peach Skin, and Ellis Brooklyn's Peaches. Out of these, I like Peaches the most, but it's kind of a simple scent. I'd like something a little more complex. I had high hopes for Peach Skin but the sandalwood is really overwhelming (it smells so powdery!). And Apricot Privée is more complex but also smells very powdery and although it's spicy, I feel like it's an old-fashioned kind of spicy, if that makes sense.

And if there's not a single fragrance that fits the bill, I could try layering Peaches with something else. Maybe with Angel Share, or with an amber?

Man: So, if you were alone in a forest, would you rather run into a strange man… or a bear?

Panel 2 Woman: Oh, hmm… I think the bear.

Man (angry): How can you say that?

(Bear looking quizzically through the window)

Panel 3 Man (angry): You're demonizing men! It's misandry!

Panel 4 Woman: Good point. Why would I ever hear men's reactions?

Man: Exactly! …where did the honey go?

Woman: At least if you maul me, pepper won't say I made it up or I'm misinterpreting.

Bear: I hear you

Hey all, how are you accessing lemmy and can you see the pinned post with the rules? It shows for me on some accounts and apps but not all.

Admin are being amazing (I ❤️ blahaj) and we're working on some anti trolling stuff behind the scenes. Loads of you have been doing stuff to protect our members which I really appreciate. You're an incredible bunch of people and I'm so glad to have you here

Childhoods vary, and some are awful, but you always learn things! What about your childhood made you strong? Did your parents teach you valuable skills? Did you pick up things from peers? Observe things? Tell us below!

It's frrriiidaaayyy! Today's game is simple. People comment with a word, and the next person says a word that's the opposite, or close as you can get to one. Either reply to comments with opposite words or start your own comment chain with a word.

We rightly warn each other about red flags, but what's a green flag? There's some things that really show someone is a good choice.

Hey all!

As you can see we've moved house. In short, we'd had enough of members being upset by the Manosphere jumping in and being nasty. If your account isnt on piefed youll see old posts in the old comm, and new in the new. If youre on piefed you can see old in the new and you can help at piefed_help@piefed.social

Advantages of blahaj are...

1. There's no downvoting, so people can't be harassed by downvote.
2. There's really heavy moderating, blahaj pre-emptively bans known trolls and has zero tolerance on discrimination.
3. Ada is fantastically supportive and really cares about creating a safe space.
4. With piefed we can transfer the comm.

Apologies for not putting it to a vote or giving you the heads up. I didn't want to give the Manosphere a chance to cause issues before we went, or try to scupper the move altogether.

There are a couple of posts that vanished in the move and there's likely to be teething problems. But I'm feeling good about there being less stress long term. Just want to say a huge heartfelt thanks to Ada for all her hard work during the move! Ada you've been amazing 👏 🤩 ❤️

Any questions?

I've found my Halloween getup (presuming I can get it in my size!):

I've been thinking about getting some nail polish since my job involves a lot of typing and I always seem to do better about not breaking my nails if they're painted. And I want something different, and I was looking at ILNP's chromatic polishes, and I'm wondering... has anybody tried them? Or, anything else like that, with a fun gimmick?

I didn't want my first post here to be something stereotypically femme but eff it. It's on my mind.

Hey all! It takes a few days for info to come over. Whose here?
