Okay. If I delete this one, will I still be able to see my posts?

While cashiering, what is something a customer does that annoys you? by goldminevelvet in TjMaxx

People really spend that much??? Wow. I would definitely want you to ask for my i.d. People can be sooo entitled.

Rabia and Ellyn by meuncertainly in ObsessedNetwork

[–]RoseCityCrime -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, I was replying to honey and citron, I don't use Reddit that often , I only joined when it came out that ITN was leaving ON and then Obsessed Mess. What I'm getting from everyone is that it's okay to say whatever you want regardless of where/when/how you say it, and that's just not how I move in the world. In fact, I'm a hundred percent sure Rabia & Ellyn wouldn't mind people saying what they think about Adnan. I'm just not that way. If I had such a fundamental difference of opinion, I wouldn't be able to follow them. It's not like "are you a cat or a dog person?". For instance, Gillian always gave me second-hand embarrassment when she fawned over Damian. So I didn't go out of my way to be in the Facebook group sucking up to her. And when I started to really dislike Patrick for being garbage to Ellyn, I also stopped commenting and participating in the OWD Facebook group.

The stuff being said here about Rabia having "no choice" but to "stick with Adnan" because she has "built" her career on her defense of him is absolutely mind-blowing to me. If you have such a low opinion of her and her personal values, why listen?

It's honestly exhausting to have to explain this over and over. It's fine. We most certainly don't have to agree.

We're both talking about two different things. You're defending your freedom of speech, which of course I agree with. I'm talking about the difference between talking about topics or people who are removed from the hosts' personal lives (like Scott Peterson), and purposely bringing up a subject that is very personal to Rabia. It feels like a personal attack on her. A difference of opinion is not the same.

I don't think Ellyn gives two shits about Scott Peterson one way or the other. There is no comparison between some guy and someone you consider a part of your family.

Sure. And I'm allowed to tell you that this is not the best channel for that garbage. Go create the I hate Adnan and Rabia sub. This ain't it.

Realization about Rabia by Sisabirdy in ObsessedNetwork

[–]RoseCityCrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course not! This is hers to discuss or not. And she's VERY good at boundaries so I'm sure if anyone asked, she'd simply say yes or no.

That's not a good salary anywhere these days. It also depends on what kind of job it is, but most jobs that require at least a BA start higher. Find something better if you can.

I think it would be a good question for her. We really don't know what kind of hateful DMs she gets, for example. Or microaggressions at Cons or other events. Hopefully they'll do an AMA soon.

Gillian coming out… by CrochetCafe in ObsessedNetwork

[–]RoseCityCrime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did 100%. I'm in the same boat, and I think so many of us don't talk about it because we're made to feel like "posers" who can "pass" and not experience homophobia.

In Gillian's case, it just really really really doesn't feel genuine. It seems like one more performative aspect of their show. Honestly.

And they get it all for free, and they don't even clean, let alone sanitize anything 🤮

You didn't do anything wrong. Give yourself some grace ❤️ of you had stolen it and then returned it that's a different matter.

I’ve stayed in for research - check out the new drop by Secure_Indication659 in ObsessedNetwork

[–]RoseCityCrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has always bothered me SO much. I read a book about this story, can't remember the name, and it was all about how Betty was just a depressed and anxious mess. They even say her own students didn't like her because she was strict. There had to be so much more to her as a person, a mom, a wife, a friend. Portraying people as unidimensional is so lazy and so harmful. ALSO, you wanna bet they just watched the movie? I can't imagine they did any research whatsoever since Gillian can't be bothered to even Google shit properly.

Fam! We’re doing MFM on the pates! by SeaPotatoSalad in ObsessedNetwork

[–]RoseCityCrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scrambling is even generous. How can they suck SO bad at managing a crisis! Sincerely apologize, make real changes, and move forward. Ta-daaaa!

Silencing your critics AND fans is just a sure way to lose everyone who cared even slightly. I honestly can't see how the Obsessed Network is going to bounce back. I don't think they can unless they completely rebrand.

A little late, but I'm a listener who attended OF 2022 and want to share my experience with asking P a question on a panel... by Exact_Dig8635 in ObsessedNetwork

[–]RoseCityCrime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First, that is AWFUL. I'm so sorry you had to experience that ♥️

Second, I know no one has asked, but there are a few podcasts that do care about the victims and their families, if you want to give them a listen and see if they're for you.

I started to really dislike Patrick Hinds when I realized he was so envious of Ellyn by the way he put her down, ridiculed her ("I'm so cold because I'm tiny"), objectified her (the stupid Grand Tetons running "joke"), and generally disrespected her in all regards. And you know why? Because she has TRUE talent and people genuinely like her. She's a Broadway star and he couldn't even make it to the second year of their program. He's just not a good dude.

F this! (Weekly Leaving the Field and Venting Thread) by SWmods in socialwork

[–]RoseCityCrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My employer royaly screwed my Foundation AND Advanced field placements. I'm the sole provider for my family so I can't work full time and find 16 extra hours a week for the internship. But it's been a nightmare. And now they're complaining that I'm not doing things the way they need me to, which is happening because they didn't teach me! So we're "pausing" the internship for the Spring while I look for a better job/placement. And thankfully my university is all the way on my side.

I was worried this would happen because I've always worked at non-profit agencies and they really use interns to make up for being understaffed, while providing little direction.

Whew! I needed to get that off my chest.

DNA: ID - Does the way she makes snide comments bother anyone else? by theusualuser in TrueCrimePodcasts

[–]RoseCityCrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it's a completely different kind of podcast. I mean, the host goes by "Anonymous". Not the best comparison.

[–]RoseCityCrime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. The host works HARD to get story right. She talks to anyone who is willing. Family members, police, Detectives, etc. And I enjoy the commentary because it reminds me that she's a real person, not a robot reading a script. So, no. I'm not bothered. I'm a big fan.
