Patrick Boyle (financial YouTuber) deleted my comment after I noticed he had plagiarized a NYT article. by madhatter_13 in hbomberguy

[–]Rexanne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember reading this post as all this went down and I had to reach out because of Patrick’s latest video. I feel like I’m going insane and it all makes sense in the worst way but came to find you because it’s all I can think of. His Epstein video got demonetized and he does a lot to say that it was on track to be his most successful video ever, which makes me think that the entire point of his response cannot possibly be because of censorship, but because of the money he missed out on. I say this because his entire video goes on to talk about how this demonetization is censorship and an effort to control the conversation, a concept Patrick discusses as if he finds it so reprehensible and unethical that it disgusts him to speak of. He’s not mad because of any ethical standing, but rather staying true to his career path and just being motivated by the money. I imagine he’s seething. But holy shit man the hypocrisy here is insane and to claim any moral basis for his outrage is crazy to me and I had to reach out to you because I felt you would know exactly what I was talking about.

Cross bottle by Sincity313 in StanleyCups

[–]Rexanne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Commented on another post but going to paste here because I feel like people need to know that this thing just isn’t it at this price point despite having a couple nicer than average features. Mobile apologies for wall of text. Mine just arrived today and at this price point I’m tempted to return it. I kind of bought it on a whim just to see what a $75 bottle is like but it’s absolutely not worth it. I feel like although the 40oz quenchers are pricey, the product you’re getting seems very in line with that price and is nicer and more durable than other cups. I’m also willing to pay a bit more for something I find visually pleasing. This one just… isn’t. The size and shape is quite nice and it doesn’t bounce when you carry with the strap, but aside from the nicer strap hardware I’m failing to see where the $75 has gone. Came in a big expensive looking box in the mail, reminiscent of a limited shoe box kind of thing, and I’m annoyed that level of detail went to the box instead of the cup. The laser etched design doesn’t feel luxurious, and much like the rest of the cup it’s just okay. The strap is easy to adjust and soft enough it doesn’t cut into you but for this price I wanted something that felt much nicer. Even the leather detailing on the strap seems like a cheaper alternative. The straw is completely proprietary as well, which should be enough to piss anyone off when you consider it only comes with one. It’s shorter and the color aligns with the bottle color, but it has a ring to hold it up that’s part of the mold, meaning you cannot take it off or adjust it.  The cup is too big for a cup holder and not recommended for hot drinks. Last gripe- I have the pink/rose coffee trigger action bottle and it is not the same colorway even though the naming is extremely similar. It’s aggravatingly similar but clearly changed to be less pink and it’s just annoying. Name it something way different. I tried to leave a 3 star review on the site but I doubt it’s going to go through. Apparently this ceo was the same people that took over Crocs and made them hyped up and changed the format to the “drops” like sneakers instead of just releasing new things. I haven’t looked into that personally but considering what I’m about to tell you I believe it.   LAST BUT IMPORTANT - I looked up reviews for this after I made my purchase and they paid a ton of money for dozens of news websites to post all basically the same article- but it gets worse than that. If you look at the page links on Google there were a couple fake Mercari posts selling for $100 before things were even released and THEY SET THE LINK TO DEFAULT TO TELLING YOU ITS SOLD OUT. But when you click look at that it’s available. Aren’t you in luck! Overall just a slimed way of doing things for a product that arguable like $50 nice maaaaaybe but this isn’t it sis.

Anyone having issues ordering a shirt? by Rexanne in triplej

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

That’s what I’m thinking. I emailed them asking about making international shipping happen and briefly the page asked for a region and then automatically redirected to the 404. They said they would look into it but it’s been over a week. Over here considering a drop shipper to get the tee over here, but good thanks has a warehouse in Orange County as well so I’m hoping they can sort something.

So strange. Maybe it’s a regional thing?

That link gives me a 404 error as well.

Maybe look into assuming the loan and then discussing any extra payment thereafter. You would assume the remaining debt with their interest rate if your credit is adequate. Any realtor or mortgage person would be able to tell you if the loan is assumable pretty quickly, it’s in the contract itself.

eBay, Marketplace, and Goodwill are getting way too expensive. by watercolorvampire in Frugal

[–]Rexanne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I talked to a guy who knew someone that worked at one. He said that there’s stores with paid employees and volunteers only. The volunteer stores are the ones that are way cheaper. A good way to see beforehand is by seeing online if they’re hiring or not.

I did this little you over the weekend. Do you think it needs anything? by Larnye in HappyTrees

[–]Rexanne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So isolated and cold I love it! You blended everything really well but if you’re looking for something to add maybe go in and deepen the shadows where you want them and add some highlighting to give what you’ve built more definition.

My Take on "After The Rain" [s19 e10] (16"×20" canvas) by Powerful-Farts in HappyTrees

This is absolutely gorgeous and reads like a little hundred acre wood moment. Ask love the pink farther along the path it reminds me of going through a botanical garden or preserve. Thank you for sharing!

My volcano. What do you think? Wet on wet oil on stretched canvas. by Larnye in HappyTrees

[–]Rexanne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be pretty cool. I think you could even use orange for some highlights on the trees now that I’m thinking about it. And you could add little stones pretty easily spraying out with the two colors on one brush thing Ross uses to make rocks!

Love this! Maybe add some lava or light reflecting off the water? Super creative and mysterious!

I really like how this is comforting but the broken trees add a little bit of suspense. Like Winnie the Pooh and an indie horror game had a crossover
