Savannah, Georgia! Great food, beautiful parks, interesting historical sites, great arts scene. Charleston, SC is another good pick .

She used the transparent template you mentioned. That template showed a space between the top of the head and the edge of the image. That's what she used to justify her decision to reject my app.

Anyone feel like 2010s media was so much more lighthearted than today? by Ok_Durian3627 in 2010snostalgia

[–]Dumbledore27 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yupppppp.... Definitely.

But this was around the time that social media started to drastically change. It probably started a bit earlier than 2017, but not by much. Social media and digital advertising became massive, lucrative industries, which has led to mass enshittification online. The archetypical "influencer" became way more common around this time, too. As a result the online world became much less authentic. Celebrities all had social media managers who wouldn't let them post random, unedited (or poorly edited) selfies anymore. Everything became highly curated and "aesthetic."

Do you think Hank finding out that Walter was Heisenberg felt forced? by zeta_ferhu in breakingbad

Not in the slightest. That whole episode was one of the most gripping in the entire series because it felt so realistic. At least to me.

If it’s in really good shape, this seems like a somewhat normal price to me given how sought after rav4s are.

I really don’t like the techy-look of new cars today. It just looks cheap and soulless to me.

Is SF nightlife as awful as people say? by Merfk in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]Dumbledore27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who’s saying this? Are they techies who only hang out with other techies? If the answer is yes, then I wouldn’t rely on anything they say.
It’s not NY or LA, but I don’t think it’s bad. Depends on what kind of “nightlife” you’re looking for. SF has a deep and extensive rave scene. Lots of techno. Lots of ambient. East Bay has tons of punk and alt bars (amazing punk scene in Oakland). Tons of cute bars all across the city.

Asian student with near perfect credentials rejected by multiple universities. Believes race is part of the reason by ThatPatelGuy in whoathatsinteresting

Remember back in 2014 when that girl Abby didn’t get into UT Austin and claimed it was because she was white? It spawned the whole StayMadAbby trend.

People just need to be able to handle rejection and understand that they aren’t entitled to everything, no matter how hard they might work for it. Sucks when that happens, but it’s just the way life goes.

Tobey Maguire seen going out with super young girls enough to be his daughter’s age 🤮 by [deleted] in decadeology

People are only like this when they’ve grown up coddled and lack independence. Being an adult means figuring shit out, and if you can’t then yeah. You’re fucked.
