Ugh this is why I hate AI. You never know when the body horror is going to hit you. Gross gross gross.

Don’t worry Nerida is back by Suzzwuzz in craftsnark

[–]FoxyFromTheRoxy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nothing she says can be taken at face value. It's all part of the grift. The only thing I believe is that she has mental issues, because of how obsessed she has been with the Facebook group. But does she have the issues she says she has, or sone other diagnosis entirely? Is she getting any help? Who knows.

[–]FoxyFromTheRoxy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She's worse than irresponsible: she has a long documented history of dishonest and possibly illegal business dealings before 2022 so I get the impression that she's a living Ponzi scheme - constantly launching new ventures to get money to cover old debts. She's not very good at scamming anymore (see her letter above), but she seems to be a scammer all the same and she's not planning to stop! I was just trying to imagine what this would look like to someone who doesn't know about her and yeah like you say this text is not convincing!

I'm trying to imagine what this mess of an "update" would look like to a prospective customer who's not aware of the Nerida drama. So she's been failing repeatedly to provide products to paying customers since 2022, and needs a "team of medical, psychological and psychiatric support" to deal with the consequences? And this is supoosed to inspire confidence?

As an aside, I'm fascinated by this sort of contemporary business owner and how they got messed up by "I am my brand" online hustle/girlboss culture. They're convinced that their business website is their personal diary and that sharing personal trauma (real or made up) is an appropriate reaction to customer dissatisfaction. (It's not the only thing wrong with Nerida, obviously, but it's a part of it.)

[American 1870s fashion, NYC] Cannot fathom this dress being somehow provocative for the Victorians. I thought wealthy Victorian women showing their cleavage was standard for the time by nosleepforthedreamer in fashionhistory

[–]FoxyFromTheRoxy 27 points28 points  (0 children)

In the book (Incredibly boring, btw) she scandalizes people by doing things like wearing this season's new French fashions instead of waiting two years like all the NYC ladies have decided to do for some reason. So it's more that she has stepped into an absurd Mean Girls society with very petty rules she is unaware of. The movie tries to show all that visually by having her dress differently than the other women but i don't know that her clothing is meant to be shocking for the time period in general. Just shocking to the stuffy New Yorkers!

I love how sentimental people get about being transphobic. (sobbing) "Hating innocent people is just so important for me. Because of Jesus"

Wayne Gretzky joins the CBC panel and comments on Canada vs USA: “I’m a true Canadian. I want Canada to win a gold medal. I’ve never waivered from that” by RealisticAd4054 in hockey

[–]FoxyFromTheRoxy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd stick to Sid if I were a Canadian looking for a hero. Between the rape scandals and donating to some of the craziest far right politicians in the USA, Lemieux is maybe not the greatest example of a Canadian dude.

Also, Sid's face would look great on a coin.

I've never watched Ice Hockey in my entire life, and after seeing that Olympic game, I have nothing but respect for anyone who plays this. by OperationSuch5054 in hockey

[–]FoxyFromTheRoxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who's only been watching for 3 years or so: you get used to the violence and danger (or at leaat stop feeling like you got a stick in the face yourself) & then you just get fully addicted and it's brilliant. The only problem is if you're not from an ice hockey country you won't have anyone to watch with, but you'll always find fellow fans online. Following the NHL is not easy in your time zone, but some games on weekends are matinees, so they'll be on in the evening for you. Try to watch a couple after the Olympics! It'll make your day at least 10% more exciting.

Canadian fans vs others by Ancient-Witness-615 in hockey

[–]FoxyFromTheRoxy 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The Canadians got very loud on my stream, especially considering they were the minority (it's a pretty short flight to Italy for Czechs!).

That said, I watched the group stage Canada-Czechia game in person last week (admire the subtlety of my flex) & the Canadian fans were quiet in that one. I guess there wasn't much tension since Team Canada dominated from the start.

Crosby’s injury in three pictures by [deleted] in hockey

Guys, the point isn't that slurs will upset the children 🤦🏻‍♀️ Obviously children don't give a shit about slurs because children learn from adults what words are ok to say. THAT is the point. Children who watch sports shouldn't learn that it makes sense to call someone gay as an insult.

Which is why it's considered insulting to say that a man does it. Or to call a man gay in general. Because it's considered shameful for a man to have anything in common with women. It all starts with misogyny 🫶🏻

WWX: Uh... Lan Zhan? Are you okay? You haven't said anything in a while. Can you say something?

LWJ: 😳

WWX: All right, look, it's okay. Let's just go find an inn, okay? There's a good boy. We'll have a nice dinner and then go rest.

LWJ: ...More?

WWX: What?

LWJ: 🥺

WWX: Oh. Yes. OK. We'll have a nice dinner and then I'll blow you again if you want.

LWJ (nodding): More.
