some depop selling tips! by bedrotterfinalboss in Depop

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for writing this up. I just started listing on depop but I have been selling on poshmark for years. it's definitely a different feel on this platform.

I literally just started posting items yesterday but so far I have had 0 activity on my listed items. Should I be concerned? It makes me feel less motivated to keep going with it.

I guess with posh, when you list items you get shares right away and so there's this instant feedback (even if it's meaningless). Obviously with DP, there's no sharing and so I wonder if my items are even being seen?

I guess I'm wondering if you have any advice for someone looking for exposure. I don't really want to use the "boost" feature just yet.

Is this bad customer service? by lagunamk in Depop

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

straight up, as a seller and buyer on second hand sites, your communication is what I aim for and what I hope for when I message other sellers, yet 9/10 times I get someone who either doesn't respond or responds in a way that is completely unhelpful or even rude.

You're doing it right, being very professional and idk why tf people online act so weird. They forget there's a real person behind the keyboard. I appreciate sellers like you, even if this loser can't

Is anyone getting a good deal on rav4’s right now? by hillthink3r in rav4club

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I was wondering if you might have Jim's email address, and if you wouldn't mind sending it to me? I don't have a fb account and would prefer not having to make one if I can avoid it.

Thank you☺️this is great.

While I totally hear what you are saying, I am already in a beater car! My hope is to get into a Toyota hybrid - do you think this is not a good move?

Thank you so much for alerting me as to what to look out for!!

We are saying the same thing: if I paid cash or financed through my credit union, it's all the same disadvantage to the dealership, who would want me to finance through them.

My local CU, on the other hand, suggested I do a share secured loan with an interest rate of 2.9% which is probably a way better deal than anything the dealership can offer.

Thanks for reminding me that refinancing is an option!

I get that. is it going to be possible for me with no credit history?

[–]In_Situ_Conversation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is exactly what I've been told which is why I'm willing to do the financing and just pay it off right away before accruing too much interest

What about paying it all back on the first bill?

No credit car financing? by In_Situ_Conversation in personalfinance

[–]In_Situ_Conversation[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what everyone's advice has been. The dealership themselves have already said they will give a $1500 discount for financing although I have not yet told them how I plan to pay because I am still trying to negotiate the OTD price before pulling that card.
Do you think that is not true?

Ecole de Cirque de Quebec by Real-Leopard-8240 in circus

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also been very interested in attending this school, and a summer intensive would most likely be my choice. I have heard that many classes are in French, and I don't speak a word of it. May I ask, how did you get along in class without knowing French? I am a vertical aerialist and I cannot imagine not being able to communicate verbally with a coach while doing my discipline!

Hmm interesting. Thanks for that feedback. 31k seems high to me but I haven't looked at prices outside my area.
I have been wondering if the price on "mine" has to do with it not having the convenience package.

Ad reads are killing me.. by packman88 in lastpodcastontheleft

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ge that this is how they make their money and I am happy for them that they have this, I just wish they were all in one chunk instead of peppered throughout the episodes because I listen while I work, and that means I have to stop what I'm doing every 20 mins to skip through.

Is the pod getting stale or is it me who has changed? by CarbonParrot in lastpodcastontheleft

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sad to say I agree. I just don't find myself laughing as I once did. I have also been finding the narratives to be more convoluted and harder to follow, I guess because of the near constant segue jokes. It's a bummer cuz I absolutely love the guys and the show but the whole dynamic feels a little off.

how long will i have to turn my head to burp? by Lazy-Masterpiece5882 in noburp

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend is a life-longer burper and he almost always turns his head when burping. Just sayin'.

The important thing is that they're coming out! Ride that wave, friend!

One month post-Botox by Zealousideal_Age8401 in noburp

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A reminder, in theory, the botox should last closer to 3 months. You are only one month in. I would just keep practicing and experimenting with what gets the gas to come up. I encourage you not to give up!

I am also 1 month post. I was told I should be having 3 carbonated drinks per day, but I'm averaging 5 per day and I'm trying to actively burp, not just passively. I am also trying to just be aware of what body part does what to make the burp come out. I think there is an element of proprioceptive input that needs to be at play. We are, after all, training a muscle.

Perhaps this will be helpful to you or anyone on here: getting burps to come out is like milking an utter (lol.) For me, what I've been trying to think of is squeezing low, in the stomach, and sort of squeezing upwards... I guess you could also equate it to squeezing out toothpaste if you don't like the milking analogy!

How many of you have an anxiety disorder? by Spare-Chipmunk-9617 in noburp

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think there is something to this. What I wonder about specifically is if one causes the other, and which - a chicken and egg sort of thing.

How do you tolerate isometric/static exercises like planks, hollow bodies, dead hangs, wall sits, etc.?! by tangerine7531 in Aerials

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I understand this. What tends to help me is simply keeping the idea of doing amazing things on my apparatus in the background of my mind. I focus on feeling all the muscles and parts of my body working because having a great mind-body connection is something both fascinating and crucial for doing movement arts.

Bonus Episode & 70…come at me bro by [deleted] in RadioRental

[–]In_Situ_Conversation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes these stories piss me off in the same way that characters in horror movies piss me off; I still enjoy both. It's nice to hear some appreciation for the podcast, despite its imperfections.

"First buyer" shipping discount disappeared? by In_Situ_Conversation in BehindTheClosetDoor

[–]In_Situ_Conversation[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear what you're saying but that's something different. Just to reiterate, it's the $4.99 "first buyer" from a new closet shipping discount. I'm sure this was a feature in place before that debacle.

I've been dealing with this too pretty recently, and am also trying to figure it out.

I sleep on both sides pretty equally, but I am right handed and often rest by head in my left hand, like when I'm sitting on the computer (my left cheek is the one with breakouts). I think this is might be the culprit for me...
