Oops, sorry about your previous long post @Cult Icon

The new alien show IMHO is very promising and interesting but they have made similar creative decisions as reboot Alien Romulus.

They seem to be aiming the franchise/ show at a youth crowd so they have a lot of kids as protagonists like in Romulus. They also assume that the people watching never seen classics like Alien, Aliens, Blade runner etc.. so to veterans of the genre it is rather irritating.

Overall the show would have been objectively better if they aimed it at adults who are fans of the franchise. They don't need to re-explain what a Xenomorph is- everyone knows. It is also interesting that they are using a lot of cyborgs/syths in this show like in Blade Runner- if they used adult characters it would have been better too.

Now you can have just two games instead of 30 and maybe those two games will cost a couple bucks more they would normally.

Gotcha! I really can’t recommend enough getting it done by a professional. Going from black to white with box dye rarely goes as planned, it’ll probably turn orange or yellow and the hydrogen peroxide in it is super harsh on your scalp and hair. There’s also a chance that light brown won’t cover it if it does turn brassy, so do your research first. If you do decide to try it. Also, make sure to do the allergy test first especially if you haven’t bleached before or have a sensitive scalp or allergies.

I heard that if you have black hair you may have to dye it multiple times to make it 100% blonde if done by a professional. That sounds like it would damage the hair quite a bit.

When I dye my hair black everything is very black and this strong color hides the whites too.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Have you done this before?

What I heard is that they would dye black hair white first and then apply the blonde afterwards. Somehow I don't really want to do that.

Sooooo many times when I was younger. Becks look was my thing back then.

Long story short, black is going to turn red or orange, that's it.

Corporations raising prices and blaming it on tariffs would be on par with corporate greed. We're not going to be able to tell if it's true or not unless they open up the books, but that isn't happening.

You can deny tariffs all you want, but companies' vague "challenging economic environment" statements are nothing but a political dodge. They know that mentioning tariffs directly would draw political backlash from the government and regulators.
