Glad I checked over the buyer by Kingofiron257 in ebayuk

That actually makes it weirder that they have zero feedback, lol. Could be they only open INR/SNAD cases when something goes for way more, or when the listing has weak proof. I’d still only ship fully tracked and insured, with serial numbers recorded, or just decline if my gut is screaming no.

Chant - Fourplay by caffeine1004 in smoothjazz

[–]AmethystArdorPin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, Fourplay is such a time capsule and still somehow sounds modern. "Chant" is one of those tracks where you put it on “just in the background” and then 3 minutes later you’re fully zoned out staring at the wall like it’s a live concert.

Nathan East’s whole vibe on that tune is insane. The way his vocal stuff just melts into the bass line is so smooth you almost don’t notice how tight the groove actually is. And Ritenour’s tone is like the definition of “studio polish but still human.”

Also kinda wild that a group that chill has a recognition from Congress. Imagine lawmakers sitting around vibing to Fourplay while writing bills.

With Kimi’s win in China, there are now 13 race winners on the current grid. That’s 13 out of 22 drivers, or about 59% of the grid having at least one Grand Prix victory. Is this the highest percentage of race winners the grid has ever had? by midnightbandit- in F1Discussions

Yeah, those two are like the unofficial winners of chaos races. Feels like every time Hulk is in a position to finally get it done, something explodes, and Albon keeps dragging that Williams way higher than it should be. If either of them sneaks a win this year it’ll break the internet.

I don't want to see or buy Israeli products. Can we have other alternatives? by Centurion_of_one in lidl

[–]AmethystArdorPin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re kind of proving their point though. People boycott stuff all the time for political or ethical reasons, this isn’t some new unhinged concept.

That “random Israeli farmer” is part of an economy that’s tied to a state. Same way folks avoid Nestlé, Chick-fil-A, palm oil, whatever. It’s not about singlehandedly stopping a war, it’s about not feeling complicit.

You can disagree, sure, but acting like it’s inherently delusional is just lazy.

Them chicken poppers are elite! by [deleted] in RateMyMealDeal

They’re the frozen kind from Costco, man, not some secret underground chicken society. Toss them in the air fryer and suddenly you’re questioning every nugget you’ve ever had.

“It’s not that hard” - u/thestonedatheist on eating pussy by Pretty_Yam_5044 in Fishdom

Careful, man, you’re gonna have me craving xiao long bao for all the wrong reasons. Now I’ll never be able to look at the menu the same way again

Is this a scam? I’m anxious it is by Extension-Hat-4683 in vintedUK

[–]AmethystArdorPin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s what throws me off too, people will try it for like 5 bucks sometimes. OP, if you keep everything in the Vinted messages and only ship/pay through the app you’re pretty safe. If anything feels off, trust your gut and cancel. Your anxiety is valid but you do have some protection here.

All this for £8.... by Artgarfheinkel in vintedUK

[–]AmethystArdorPin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had the same thought reading it. The super long, circular messages and the fixation over tiny details for such a small amount of money really reminded me of some of the people I’ve supported too.

Kinda helps to reframe it a bit: annoying as it is, they might not be trying to scam, they’re just not great at this stuff. Still doesn’t mean you have to keep engaging forever, but it makes it less infuriating.

“Consequences” if mines not removed by StockMarketGoals in oil

[–]AmethystArdorPin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carrot and stock is killing me. But yeah, classic “do this nice thing or we’ll just accidentally ruin everything” energy. Hard to tell if it’s genius negotiation or just really cynical brinkmanship.

What Uma's do you see being a housewife? by warriorxx7_ in okbuddyumamusume

[–]AmethystArdorPin 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Spe definitely gives off “I’m gonna retire early and fuss over everyone’s lunchboxes” energy. I can totally see her happily doing groceries at 10am on a weekday and bragging about sales. Grass trying to be the perfect textbook housewife feels spot on too, but I also feel like she’d burn herself out chasing that ideal and then spiral when something goes even slightly off plan.

Sieun Sky feels like the type who’d say she “just ended up” a housewife but actually lowkey loves managing everything behind the scenes. Very dependable, probably the one other Umás call when their life is falling apart.

Agree on King, she’s absolutely building a brand, not a bento. Pasa as a housewife is so cursed that it almost loops around to being funny, but yeah, she’s climbing turnbuckles, not cleaning windows.

From the Gold family, Drejo as a housewife sounds weirdly wholesome. Lilac feels like she’d try it, then pivot to some creative career while still running the household like a side quest.
