    Braces on adults are common enough that most people don't care. There are options like Invisalign, ceramic or clear braces, and lingual braces (brackets behind the teeth) that you can ask about. If you work somewhere with a strict dress code you might want to stick to clear and white colored rubber bands, too. Though outside of that, people still won't care and colored rubber bands are cute.

    Dissatisfaction is a good thing. It's the fuel that pushes you to do something. Maybe it's something big like switching careers or cutting ties with toxic relationships, but most often it's small things like picking up a new hobby, volunteering, or taking a vacation.

    Don't dismiss dissatisfaction. Look into your life and see what you need to change.

    I don't think reshipping in itself is illegal. If you're buying something illegal in the final country, sure, but there's a lot of stores that only ship to some countries even though there's no restrictions on the actual goods.

    If it's a big company then keep your ear to the ground, find out if there's another team or department you'd like to work in, and talk about it with your manager. Be patient. Big companies have a lot of benefits and it might be worth waiting for a position to open up.

    If you really want to work somewhere else then apply outside of work hours, don't just quit. It's easier to find a job when you already have one.

    It's wild to me when women describe another woman's clearly sexy / hot outfit as 'cute'. Is this a conscious choice?

    'Cute' is just a positive word saying the outfit's nice. 'Sexy' is the pregnancy of the fashion world. Don't tell someone they look sexy unless you're really sure and maybe not even then. Not all women who are sexy are trying to look sexy, and 'sexy' means different things to different people.

    You didn't state the problem and I don't know German, so I'm guessing you're solving for the time of two trains?

    It helps if you organize every problem into 3 steps: 1) what is the given info from the problem? 2) what core equations are we using? 3) how do we use #1 and #2 to solve the problem?

    Your notes show these steps but if you can organize it well enough that it's easy to understand just by looking at the blackboard, that will make everything smoother. Write the given info as bullet points. You're using S=VT as the core equation, so underline it and write out what each letter stands for. From there, write each step vertically.

    What aspect of your relationship with your parents do you find most challenging, and how has that shaped you as a person?

    My father's a narcissist and my family waves it away. I'm fine with LC, he's not, so I guess sooner or later it'll turn into NC. It's frustrating. He wants a relationship and says he's willing to try, but he's incapable of accepting any reality where he's done something wrong or hurt someone. I've spent years trying to think of the magic words that would fix things but there's no way around it.

    As a person it's made me more conscious of people's limits. There's a will on both sides for us, but we're each limited in our own ways. I can't be as tolerant as the rest of my family and he won't be able to make progress without therapy that he doesn't even realize he needs.
