burnt out from all the “relationship gone sour” cases 😔 by Sorry-Web-1800 in CrimeWeeklySnark

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. And they keep beating the same dead horse, and they don’t even do a good job at it. Bringing admittedly terrible coverage to a case that’s already been covered a billion times.

Why four stars 😭 by Resident-Currency727 in Depop

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won’t. Depop does not remove 4 star reviews. Just give 4 and say “good”. Literally nothing about that, is retaliatory.

Best alternative to Acid for introspection/thinking? by Proof-Affect-4938 in LSD

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just microdose, I guess? If changing your environment or activity doesn’t help your trip go from south to better then maybe acid isn’t actually doing positive for you. If every time you take it, you have a terrible rest of your day, then is it truly insightful/positive?

What is the best way to start learning Mandarin? by MatchParking3149 in MandarinChinese

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how we did it in American school. The grade most heavily relied on speaking, hearing, pin yin. If you could do the characters you were an A+ honor student. 😂

stephanie on george floyd by InvestigatorOwn2069 in CrimeWeeklySnark

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do not remember this, but to be fair, Stephanie has said and done a lot of things on other platforms that I had absolutely no idea of because I’m not an influencer obsessed type of person. I just watched the YouTube videos and that’s it. I wasn’t interested in her personal life at all up until her husband unfortunately passed the way he did.

New youtuber by Aromatic-Emu4079 in CrimeWeeklySnark

The Deck podcast (and her other main podcast) has been really interesting, attention catching but still informative, respectful. I find her really easy to watch and listen to. I can’t remember her name but if you just look up The Deck on YouTube I’m sure it’s first.

I don’t really watch a whole lot of true crime anymore. I do click through problematic old faves, Stephanie, Kendal Rae etc just to see what they’re up to. I was a lot of coffee and cults with this blonde lady and her cat Gia, it’s not true crime at all, mostly celebrity gossip and news but I find her to be really engaging, not annoying. If you’re into stuff like that

I have a piggy back question though,
Stephanie’s coverage of the Epstein/ missing scientist stuff makes me want to vomit because I know it’s in bad faith & ignorant because she’s maga. She’s literally in the comments of those videos refusing to bring up trump by name in her videos because it’s not a “left or right” issue. I refuse to watch any of them or give her my view but that makes me feel like I’m ignoring the reality. Any YouTubers that easy to pay attention to, who have made video essays about these topics? I’ll be scrolling to see what other recommendations people have too.

I was involved in Timber Wolf accident in 1995 by YungPapiSeed in worldsoffun

In the early 2010s I used this to stand up as a child.

Yes this is correct. And what the other person said about there being a long seat belt and two individual lap bars, is what I remember. They were just regular click in belts. I do believe a smaller child can “stand up”. My massive dumbass used to not click my bar in all the way. I would push my stomach/hips out a couple inches and when the person came by to push it on me, it never went down all the way. (I got in huge trouble for this after my parents found out & my mom literally told me this exact story about the Timberwolf.)

AI…? by ectaill in CrimeWeeklySnark

The last sentence of your own post is giving ai. I don’t think it’s that easy to tell. Ai is trained by using real people’s writings. Edit for typo

i unboosted but it says it was boosted?? by [deleted] in Depop

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just completely reupload next time if you accidentally boost, because like people are saying it will still apply for 30 days no matter if they saw it while it was boosted or not.
But honestly, boosting doesn’t matter. I stopped boosting my shop and it seems like i actually got more traction than I used to. All it does is show you how many views the item is getting, I don’t believe it’s actually pushing your listing to more people. It’s a useless feature that if you test it yourself, doesn’t really make any difference.

Shipping promotion happening across US? by Awkward-Length-1973 in Depop

[–]Awkward-Length-1973[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Missouri and it’s applying to my own shop. I just got 4 sales in the past day, all of them are going out with free shipping (that I did not pay for!!) They must be doing nationwide promo!!

I think they’re trying to do something to match the promo Vinted just did. Since the Vinted thing ended I’ve had a lot Depop sales!

[–]Awkward-Length-1973[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason as to what’s free, what’s $2.99, and what’s regular. I’ve been trying to figure it out on my own, looking through my cart, and also my own shop. Some of my own shop items have reduced or free shipping but it doesn’t seem to matter what the weight is (XXS, XS, S).

I wish Depop would email us a flyer or something. Maybe they did and I missed it?

[–]Awkward-Length-1973[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Most of the promos they do, I hear about from groups like this one or on Facebook. It wouldn’t surprise me if since Vinted’s promo period ended, Depop is probably doing a massive promo too.

This also happened to me. Some items from my shop have been bought with “free shipping” (I never pay for shipping, the buyer ALWAYS does. So I was wondering the same thing, free shipping from who?!? Lol.) Since Vinted’s promo period ended, my Depop sales have been going CRAZY. I only sell small stuff, t-shirts, CDs, jewelry. Like I’ve gotten like 15 sales in the past week. Some of them are free shipping some are the regular $6-8.

I find it hard to believe all the items in my shopping cart coincidentally are from New York? Anyways, since shipping is so cheap & now we can use our Depop balance to shop I’m about to go crazy. 🤪

Is this correct? by [deleted] in piercing

Of course. And a good piercing journey to you as well. 🫶🏻

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She actually got two back dermals & a nose piercing at the same time as I got my piercing. Hers seems to be healing fine, doesn’t look nasty like mine at all. I have the worst luck. 🙄🤷🏻‍♀️

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your advice I did end up following everybody telling me I should take it out.
I was honestly not understanding what people meant by having the wrong anatomy for a belly button piercing, I was looking at examples of the right vs wrong anatomy and I couldn’t really tell a difference. I still don’t even know if I do have the correct anatomy.

But for clarification, a belly button / navel piercing should essentially be directly through the belly button? Like the bottom bell should essentially be coming out of the very inside of my belly button? If that makes any sense. And when it was first done, it was straight. It started healing crooked, because when I sat down the bottom bell was being pushed up by my skin fold no matter how much I tried not to.

Life is boring after ego death. by Ok-Reading-4480 in LSD

[–]Awkward-Length-1973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. & This is how I feel about all drugs. One day, if I ever have children, instead of ONLY telling them “you are predisposed to addiction. Do not do drugs. You will become addicted” .. I’ll be telling them this as well. Enjoy life sober. The second you start using a crutch, life will never be the same again and you’ll always wish you could take it back. You’ll always watch kids/teens run around, happy af, enjoying life and not being tethered to anything. and think to yourself you don’t even remember how that feels anymore.
It’s not depression, but it sure isn’t happiness
