brainwane: My smiling face, including a small gold bindi (Default)

I found a few useful tools you might also like!

Heidi Waterhouse suggested that wearing a little color on one's lips might be helpful in emphasizing contrast in online videos: "You don’t need to wear dramatic lipstick, but I find that when I wear something on my lips I remember to smile more in meetings and therefore am more engaged." I bought a lip gloss (my first?) and a few tinted lip balms online, and am trying wearing them.

I'm probably moving my main blog away from the old software I've been using and I'm open to suggestions. Ha - as I was drafting this DW post, a man has already disregarded or missed my "If you reply to me to give advice on what platform I should choose but you have not read this bullet point, I will disregard your advice and probably decrease my interest in your advice in the future." item and given me useless advice! Happy that I added that to catch them out.

As someone who lip reads, yeah, color is super helpful in reading. (One male ASL teacher I know wears a brown color when he's teaching via video, he says it's definitely gotten easier to find less femme colors these days.)
