No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I just don't want to mix them because I feel like it would make me less clean.

Relatedly, what's the best way I can follow the Patrick Bateman skincare routine as a simplified version that's actually practical to follow and contains the most important steps?

I do have a hair towel - two actually, one smooth cotton and one microfiber. Use these for styling, they don't cause frizz and they get gunked up with conditioner and stuff so I'd not use them to dry off.

The rest of me gets one towel. As long as it has time to dry off between showers I figure it's hygenic enough, and I wash it weekly. Husband uses two body towels but no hair towel as his hair is so very short.

If you are asking about a good and easy skincare routine - CeraVe unscented lotion is good enough for face and cheap enough for body. Wash whatever needs to be washed in the shower, dry off but not super dry, apply the CeraVe everywhere. After you get dressed in morning, a sunscreen for your face. If you have acne and/or are older, add prescription Tretinoin, apply that at night before bed.

It probably makes you less dirty, yes, but not to the point where you would get smelly.

Could you have OCD?

It counts like you have a cleanliness compulsion. Which isn't a huge deal, but if it gets burdensome then you might want to speak with a psychiatrist about it.

I use 4 towels as well, big one for body, small ones for hair and hands and tiny one for the face. Last one is more like a washcloth and not a full fledged towel.

I have ~~seen~~ met people who use 3 towels. 4 may be uncommon, but not abnormal.

Something I learned taking college microbiology was that if you reuse towels for drying off make sure one end (like the end with the tag) is dedicated for your bottom half and the other for the top. That way you don't accidentally get your genital flora in your eyes/face.

I did not learn this in college microbiology and I don't think it's something that's generally taught. Lol

The thing that's not normal is that you don't have a seperate towel for your ass, but you have two - for face and hair. I guess you do you
