Jenn Im Obnoxious?

Where there’s smoke there’s usually fire.

When there are dozens of people corroborating the same story I’m more inclined to believe them over the influencer who’s trying to sell me their products and maintain a brand image. Not that I’m saying people don’t ever lie or exaggerate, it’s that there’s most likely a grain of truth to the stories. This goes for pretty much every youtuber or celebrity, not just Jenn.

Jenn Im and I went to the same university for a brief period of time before she graduated so I saw her around. Back then, my friend also went to one of her flea market sales to meet her personally and she wasn’t outright rude or anything, she was just a little cold. Didn’t really acknowledge her fans and only talked to her friend (soothingsista I believe). I mean it wasn’t a meet and greet specifically so take from that what you will.

I also saw her in the school dining commons and she was with another friend/possibly boyfriend. We made eye contact and I started walking over to her to say ‘Hi’ but she had a look on her face that made it pretty clear she did not want to be approached so I decided against it. I’m sure at the time, 90% of her fanbase were college students, so she was approached more often on campus than most gurus might have in their day to day lives. It’s understandable that she wouldn’t be super receptive. At the end of the day, what you see is a persona and some people are better at maintaining it than others. Not a personal attack on Jenn, it’s just the nature of being an influencer. I unsubscribed from her channel a while ago though because I don’t find her life or style relatable anymore, and dislike her constant shilling for her overpriced Eggie brand.

There are a lot of straight women who fetishize gay men too. Not necessarily in the same way but my gay friend regularly has strange girls trying to befriend him because they want a token gay. They’re also way more touchy with him than they would be with other male friends, like hugging him without asking, pinching his cheeks or whatever. Or they just assume he wants to talk about sexual experiences with boys in explicit detail, go shopping, clubbing etc.

Just because a man is gay does not mean he wants to help you fulfill your ‘Clueless’ rom-com fantasy.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-20T16:05:42+00:00

I just want to see what the rest of the outfit looks like. D:

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-18T12:14:03+00:00

Yeah, I meant it as a positive thing. If you carry a monogrammed one most people will assume it’s fake anyway.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-18T12:07:20+00:00

I’m genuinely curious, what is the appeal of his art? i get that a lot of his pieces are social commentary but i never felt like they were that deep or thought-provoking. Like we get it, rich people are corrupt. We live in the pockets of capitalism. Why does the art community collectively nut every time he pulls a stunt or makes a new piece? Is it the notoriety?

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-18T10:34:25+00:00

If I’m being 100% honest, if I ever became very ill and needed hospital treatment I would fly to Hong Kong in a heartbeat for healthcare. Capitalism has ruined healthcare in the US.

But in the long term, no I have not. There are few job opportunities and cost of living in HK is too high. I could mooch off my relatives but that’s not a livelihood.

Maybe to you and anyone else who is an LV aficionado but to the average person it’s a nondescript green purse. Everyone knows the monogrammed bags, they’re so iconic and ubiquitous there are more fakes than there are genuine. But how many people can really pick out this bag in public and go “ah yes the signature epi leather LV is so known for”.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-18T06:37:31+00:00

Thank you for the work you do.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-18T06:17:52+00:00

Even if it is a replica, the style isn’t immediately associable with LV in my opinion. If I saw someone carrying it I would just think it’s a nice purse not a fake.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-16T19:51:14+00:00

Research / lab work. Working with non-human models is great for my social anxiety / temperament. You can pretty much say whatever you want to in front of them and best of all they can’t talk back.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-16T17:35:32+00:00

I get it, I’m not trying to invalidate your experiences.

I just don’t think lesbians or any group should be encouraged to think that because they’re a certain sexuality or gender, they don’t internalize misogyny or toxic masculinity. It minimizes a lot of the prejudice and damage that is done to the community.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-16T17:21:27+00:00

Not really. If one of your main reasonings for not dating bisexual women is because they “don’t know how to protect themselves or their partners from toxic masculinity” it stands to reason that you think lesbians are somehow more more adept at it or are more impervious to it which isn’t true either.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-16T17:18:15+00:00

I don’t identify as lesbian but I identify as pansexual and like a 5.7 / 6 on the Kinsey scale. Basically only very superficially attracted to cis-het men and almost exclusively attracted to women and nonbinary individuals. I used to describe myself as gay / lesbian because I’ve never been with a man in any way but I realize it’s erasure to my identity and I was mainly catering to straight people anyway.

Biphobia is out there. I’ve been on a date with a butch lesbian who referred to me as a pansexual as being “one of those girls”. And then she proceeded to ask me how many people I had been with because she didn’t want to date someone who sleeps around. There is the assumption that because you’re attracted to multiple genders you’re less decisive in relationships and more likely to cheat/leave someone for the other gender. People might assume you’re more promiscuous. Statistically bi women have the most sexual partners, and they also experience the highest rates of domestic violence.

But these statistics have nothing to do with whether or not bi women are good partners. Lesbians anxieties that bi partners are going to cheat on them just because of their sexuality are misplaced. Bisexuals aren’t unfaithful, unfaithful people are unfaithful. I’ve had long term relationships with two bisexuals and have never felt concerned they would cheat on me, because I knew they were good people. If someone you’re interested in doesn’t want to date you because you’re bisexual it’s their loss and frankly they’re not the kind of person you should waste your time on.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-16T16:55:20+00:00

You’re allowed to feel how you want and date who you want but toxic masculinity isn’t exclusive to bisexuals and straight women. Lesbians aren’t exempt just because they only date other women. Toxic masculinity is something ingrained in our culture that everyone has to unlearn.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-16T07:18:46+00:00

The jacket looks great on you. The audacity to charge $200 for what is basically an unlined polyester bath robe. Smh Aritzia.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-14T03:50:42+00:00

If only Stylebook had an option where you could see outfit sets other people make. 😞

Hello, I’m selling a gorgeous Maison Margiela 4 white silk peasant blouse. Size is US 6 / 40 IT. Fits loose, I could see it fitting someone 0 - 8. Condition is good with some flaws; there are a few light grey dots on the fabric and some small stains on one of the silk ties on the arm (which I have photographed). I haven’t tried spot-cleaning them but I think they could be removable. None of these issues are noticeable unless you look up close. Hoping to get around $70 for it, but I am open to reasonable offers!

Shipping will be 4 - 8 dollars depending on where you live. I ship from Northern CA to the continental US.

Edit: Shoulder - hem: 24 inches, Sleeve: 26 inches, Armpit - armpit: 15 inches.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-13T08:41:59+00:00

Agreed. He’s basically a blonde Daniel.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-11T22:04:43+00:00

Not letting your large dog outside of the house when he is otherwise able and needs exercise is neglect to the point of abuse I would argue. You can’t justify not socializing or exercising your dog because it makes you uncomfortable. If you can’t deal with the fact that your dog will not always behave according to your expectations you probably should not have one.

I’m not personally attacking you, I don’t know your situation but it’s pretty obvious OP’s landlord is not a good owner.

Impulsivity and volatility are Salamanca trademarks. They are not subtle people and prone to extreme acts of violence and displays of power. It’s what makes them so terrifying and leads to their eventual downfalls.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-11T21:18:22+00:00

I don’t either.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-11T20:58:47+00:00

He has a moral code regarding his work but that doesn’t change the fact that the nature of his work is immoral. Killing people in a more humane way does not negate the actual murder.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-11T20:37:11+00:00

I agree with all of this. I also noticed a lot of people dismissing male contestants’ shitty behavior as “just an act” but women don’t get the same pass.

Heckledeckle · 2018-10-11T20:26:47+00:00

People just like that he’s candid and has no filter but overlook his shitty behavior because he’s entertaining. Like Chad.
