Let's Ask Scarlett

((This blog is a slightly different kind of RP blog. More "Scarlett actually has a literal tumblr account", not so much paragraph-style story. I'm open to other roleplayers and crossovers, but please frame it as if the character themself has logged onto tumblr and created an account.))

Thinking about how Crowley thinks Aziraphale calls him when he’s bored (when nothing is happening) , when he’s “done something clever” (when something good happens), or when he needs help (when something bad happens) . Like. Crowley my beloved that’s all the times.

Important note for those of you taking the plunge and upgrading to Windows 10.

When it asks you to set up your options, do NOT go for the “Express Configuration”. This will enable all sorts of data-mining nonsense on your system. Instead, check “Custom Installation” and be sure to TURN OFF every single “feature” listed. If you read closely, you’ll notice that these “features” almost all directly state that they are sending your information to Microsoft.

That is why Microsoft is giving Windows 10 away for free. They’re not planning on making money off of selling the OS, they’re planning on making money by selling the data that the OS skins off of its users.

This data mining is all enabled by default. So don’t go with what “default” is.

Do you watch Gravity Falls? Did you see last night's new episode? What was your favorite part of it? (Sorry, geeking out that one of my fav chars watches one of my fav shows)

My favorite thing is probably the fact that Grunkle Stan sees no problem with making murder-pacts with children. The growing rift between Dipper and Mabel is also interesting.

Should you have won the million dollars, what would you have planned to do with it?

I wasn’t lying in my audition video. A good portion of my winnings would be earmarked for my education. The majority of the rest of it would be invested, most likely in an Index 500 fund, so that I could safely grow my earnings until I had enough to… well, to make serious strides towards achieving certain life goals.

You mean like world domination?

Those are your words, not mine.

I made a post on Instagram about being lonely and now this guy is messaging me on how "no one likes him" or how no one cares about him. I tried to give him advice but nothing worked. How can I prevent this from happening again? Would ignoring work?

Often when people are whining about something, but reject any advice given to them, they’re not looking for advice–they’re looking for attention and someone to whine at. You don’t owe him validation, and you are not being paid to be his therapist.If he’s not interested in taking your advice, then there’s really no reason for you to continue talking to him if you don’t enjoy the conversation. Personally, I would tell him as much, but I can be a bit more blunt than most people care to be.

If I ever offend you or your culture

Politely have a conversation with me about it.

Educate me.

I know my struggles I would never intentionally disrespect yours.

I love to know the history behind words and culture that I never knew before, it never has to be an offensive conversation that gets neither of us no where.

We are all ignorant to something, but it doesn’t have to start a war.

[mamawinterwolf-deactivated20160]

YES! There’s so many people on here who in a second will rip you a new one… When all that needs to be done is a little educating.

[letsaskscarlett]

You're just some silly girl. You should leave all the science to the men. They are, after all, way smarter and more capable than you ever could be!

[letsaskscarlett]

Don't you ever think about how good it would be to have Max deep inside you?

No. Due to the legal consequences and the risk of potential prion diseases, I neither practice nor recommend cannibalism.

If you were a pony, you'd definitely be Twilight Sparkle.

Dear brony followers: Is this an insult?

Who do you find the most attractive in tdpi?

The mainframe that was running the entire island was, by far, more attractive to me than any of my competitors.

You should play Slender. Knowing someone with your knowledge, you won't be scared

How easy someone is to scare has very little to do with their intellect, and quite a bit to do with the sensitivity of their sympathetic nervous system.The fight/flight/freeze survival response occurs in a much deeper, older part of the brain than rational thought.

Is diet soda worse than regular soda; and I know both are bad for you, regular soda has so much sugar, but diet soda has aspartame????

If you’re worried about your health, it would be best to avoid soda in general.

If you’re not worried about your health, it doesn’t matter which one you drink. While real sugar in it’s natural state isn’t inherently bad for you, the real sugar in soda does not even resemble sugar in it’s natural state. As for artificial sweeteners, there is conflicting research. Some studies find that they are just as bad as natural sugar. Some studies find they are much worse.Drink water. Or, if you must have the caffeine to function, drink unsweetened tea.

HAPPY SCARLETT DAYYYY

What color foundation should I use?

I am not highly educated in either the use or application of cosmetics, so I encourage you to supplement my answer with independent research.The goal with foundation is to match as closely as possible to your natural shade. Select three that you feel are very close to your skin color, and apply a small amount from your cheek, over your jawbone, and on to your neck. Using a cosmetic sponge, blend all three into your skin. Then, select the color that most closely matches your NECK. This may seem counter-intuitive, but many ivory-to-beige skinned women have red in their face that is not present on their neck, and matching it to this undertone results in an incorrect shade.Furthermore, when selecting your foundations to test, look for those with a YELLOW undertone to them. Yellow will counteract the most common flaws in skin-tone, such as dark circles under the eyes, rosacea, etc.For women with bronze-to-ebony skintones, a relatively common phenomenon is “facial masking”, where the skin around the edges of their face is a shade or two darker than the skin along the face’s midline. If this applies to you, instead of making your streak from your cheek onto your jaw and neck, run the streaks of foundation from your cheekbone down to your jawline. Blend as above. The goal is still to match your neck, but this will help you pick a shade that works well with your natural variation in color. Unfortunately, selecting the correct undertone is a bit trickier with darker skin colors; disregard the “go for yellow” advice above, and try to select the foundation that seems to match your undertone the best.

In all cases, do your “Streak test” in natural sunlight. Take mirror with you to the department store and go outside to look, if you must.

In the event that you find your skintone is between two different shades of foundation, you should select the slightly darker shade, as the lighter shade is likely to make you look washed-out and ashy.
