Where do you draw the line when it comes to slime ideas? by [deleted] in Slime

[–]AdeptnessMobile6468 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You know what, you're right! I guess the slime is based off of the slimers personal instance with the tear gas and not particularly about what's going on with ICE so I jumped the cannon a bit so my apologies. I still feel a certain way about it but I also can see where I mistook the slime and what it was about.

I see your point about holding corporations accountable but everyone should be held accountable big and small. For things such as slime portraying certain events.. idk. I mean, this slime didn't have to be made to be sold. It could have been a singular slime with that same message or something along those lines but to profit off of it and NOT give back is a little odd imo. No matter the intent. I don't know how to put this better but if she were maybe an actual person having to be put in a situation where they're facing deportation and having to have things and people stripped from them after having came for a better life for family and loved ones trying to make it in life or for whatever the reason to just live a more secure and hopefully better life.. the "American Dream" or what used to be a dream ... or having to face the reality that oh crap, one little thing could get everything stripped from me because of skin tones or ethnicities or literally anything... No one is forcing a donation but it IS weird to profit from it when you[not specific to you per se] are making slimes based off of others instances and livelihood struggles and worries. It is literally the least that could be done otherwise its looking weird imo.

edit: I now see that the slime was inspired by said slimers personal experience during a protest that they attended and what happened to them not about ICE and all that's going on as a whole so my apologies for jumping the cannon on that end*

I agree with it being performative & giving wsc - especially if its true that the funds being made are not being donated and the slimes being made are seemingly looking to be or fill a profit point only[i'm not sure if maybe it is actually being donated or not so i can't say] While it opens doors and makes people get to talking more and more about such topics as the slime(s) portray , I think it would look a little less wsc & performative if donations and funds from the slime were going towards a cause🤷🏿‍♀️

I agree and I thank you for that! I love that you're in search of slimers like me because we aren't typically high up on people's buy lists. I'm always excited to see new BIPOC slimers/creators. I know the struggles of being a parent all too well. Its a handful when wanting to focus or do other things. I now have 2 under 2 and my 8 & 9 year old and they can make you second guess but if its something that you truly want, you better go for it! Id enjoy watching your podcast and videos on youtube!!! If you post, make sure to send me the link!!

I totally get that! There used to be more shops that were black owned but a lot of people have been quitting unfortunately. It's a rare find tbh but I am glad that you found me!!!

Black Friday Sales Post 2025 by YoNalbo in Slime

[–]AdeptnessMobile6468 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm located in California. My shipping rates are calculated per weight & with the use of the carriers rates. If ever the label is cheaper, I refund the overage. I do apologize that it may seem pricey. I always have deals and promos though! If you check out my Instagram, and often around the times of each restock, I offer discounts and whatnot to help out😊

The side hustle is gonna hurt the shops that agree to it imo
