flashbacks to when i saw this review on reddit and my immediate first thought was "i need to smell this perfume"

a reddit screenshot on r/indiemakeupandmore from user hooligranny. titled "review: warm bulb by clue perfumery"
"has anyone here pissed their denim jeans in sweltering heat while wearing a powdery vanilla? or perhaps smelled an old, pee soaked diaper that was left in a musty closet for who knows how long, with a vanilla plug in nearby? are you a fan of acrid, stomach churning scents? warm bulb is the perfume for you!

i LOVED the idea of this scent and it could not have let me down more. i so badly wanted to smell like a lit lightbulb. i loved the imagery and the branding for clue. indie and niche? count me in! i can smell the underlying warmth, i can smell the potential and it could be really pretty. unfortunately, immortelle is officially a death note to my nose. what big eyes you have by sorce also has an immortelle note that was nowhere near as strong, but sadly ruined the frag for me despite its beautiful potential. i wish i could appreciate and smell what cammyreviews experiences, but this was one of my worst scrubbers in a while.

i had a stomach bug two days ago and this is making me think i need to get my emesis bags out again just in case. to my dismay, no matter how hard i scrub with rubbing alcohol, micellar water or soap, this scent will not come off of my hand and i put the smallest dab of juice on. godspeed to any brave soldiers who try this 🫡"

and for a fun little flashback, here are the photos i've used for 2022-2025's #WhatAGameDevLooksLike 🥹 it's kind of nice looking back and seeing how much progress in my transition i've made in the course of my career

sev is wearing black round glasses, a blue corset with a star design over a black shirt that has a tied collar, and a gold chain belt with sun and star designs. their nails have similar blue and star designs and they have gold sword earrings.

sev is wearing black round glasses, silvery-blue tudor-style stays, and a hand mourning belt over a white button-up shirt with a deep neckline. there is a grey cardigan over all of it. their hair is up in a bun and they're holding onto the lanyard around their neck that reads "minneapolis QA"

sev's hair is braided and comes down over his shoulder. he is wearing black round glasses and long gold earrings with pink quartz and luna moths. a lacy white shirt peeks out under a gold t-shirt that reads "why be racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic when you could just be quiet?"

sev is wearing thin rounded glasses and hair up in a bun. they have on a grey t-shirt with the hermit tarot design in yellow and black, and a yellow jacket that says "gamedev guild :)" in the neopets font as well as a beaded bracelet that says "dead chia" and a rainbow color ribbon cable bracelet.

god. please don't forget our neighbors and community members who are still detained. please don't forget that this admin does not actually care about what is "legal". thehill.com/newsletters/...

"Respondents have continually assured the Court that they recognize their obligation to comply with Court orders, and that they have taken steps to ensure that those orders will be honored going forward," the chief judge wrote.

"Unfortunately, though, the violations continue," he said.

The judge's scolding came in the case of Juan Hugo Tobay Robles, who said he remained detained despite a judge ruling that the Trump administration must afford him a bond hearing or release him.

He's one of hundreds of migrants who have challenged the legality of their detention via what is known as a habeas petition. Several hundred have been filed in Minnesota since the start of Operation Metro Surge, The Gavel's review of court dockets found.
