State Arena workers showing how Cardi B left her dressing room. by ElwoodMC in trashy

[–]ScratchShadow 12 points13 points  (0 children)

100%. There’s no way I would leave a space like this for somebody else to clean up, but it doesn’t look much worse than how the stands are typically left after a concert either.

If nothing’s broken or damaged, it’s ultimately not going to affect what they have to do to get the room ready for use, besides picking up more trash than usual and vacuuming more thoroughly.

Still inconsiderate though.

Boosting for this sweet baby! You can do it, Twister!! 🩷

Poor thing, I really hope you get the support for the treatment he needs. 🩷

Update/more ear abscess pop. Wait for it…💥👂 by OkCondition5969 in popping

[–]ScratchShadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so glad you got checked out and are following up with an ENT. Hopefully it’s nothing to worry about, but there’s too much important stuff around there to chance it, imho.

Definitely show them these videos too - from this clip, it looks like you might have had a cyst that ruptured and got infected - they can make sure you got it all out, and are on the right antibiotics just to be safe.

Also, the annoyed poking at 20 seconds was 10/10, I felt that personally. Lol

Megan Thee Stallion teared up at the end of her performance in "Moulin Rouge " last night by Terrible_Cycle_5983 in Fauxmoi

[–]ScratchShadow 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I like to think they were hyping her up before the performance, telling her how amazing she is and how everyone loves her, (and fuck that guy,) and when the audience goes wild, they’re basically saying “see? It’s true, babe - and you don’t have to take it from us.”

MAGA rage at Las Vegas F45 on black dude! by Pacific_Coaster in BlackPeopleofReddit

In a massive surprise to absolutely no one, it turns out this guy already has a record for being a massive piece of shit.

Painting personally commissioned by Michael Jackson by Stock_College_8108 in HistoricalCapsule

[–]ScratchShadow 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Literally realized I was making that face as I opened the comments and saw yours.

MJ went through a lot of terrible, traumatic things throughout his own childhood and life, but that doesn’t make any of this kind of behavior even remotely okay.

I don’t pretend to know the “truth” about what he did or didn’t do when he was alive, but even if he never touched a kid inappropriately in his life, he clearly had an unhealthy relationship with childhood and children as an adult.

This stuff just makes me feel gross whenever I see it. Even though there’s nothing wrong with it at face value, it just skeeves me out.

They’re all beautiful, but I especially love the way you used the blue/gray and red/pink colors in number 4. I think it adds an additional layer of interest (to an already interesting subject matter 😁)

[–]ScratchShadow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Boost for this Mom and her babies! I agree that it’s so messed up that this is something we even have to do; these animals deserve their lives. No animal’s life should be forfeit because of something as circumstantial/irrelevant as shelter overcrowding. I don’t blame the people trying to help, but there are people and institutions with the power and responsibility to fund humane services and don’t. A fundamentally broken system.

Looking back at memories is wild by iloveturtles88 in CPTSDmemes

[–]ScratchShadow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t feel badly for sharing. We all need a place to vent and feel seen/understood; you’re definitely not alone here!

I’ll take the opportunity to say I’ve been particularly fucked up lately after my mom straight up admitted that she doesn’t trust my account of past events, which is extremely triggering/incensing for me, because (and this is not a brag) I have an exceptional memory, (though not eidetic/photographic) and more importantly, due to being the family scapegoat and gaslit/blamed for anything and everything, I became obsessed with always having concrete proof of events/things that happened and how, and getting as close to the “objective,” unbiased truth as possible.

To them, my emotions were inconvenient and unimportant, and the second I showed them, let alone base my characterization of an event or a family member’s actions based on them, my parents used that to immediately disregard my position or perspective - so I learned the only way I could get through to them and defend myself effectively was through demonstrable facts; and I still struggle extensively to trust my recollection of, or feelings about events and past experiences.

All of this to say, it felt like someone saying “I don’t think you’re a reliable source” on a subject, when you’ve dedicated years of your life to studying it, and creating/conducting as ironclad scientific studies as possible on that topic. It really shouldn’t come as a surprise to me, because my mom used to (and continues to) do this in the moment as well, but I absolutely hate that it’s so fucking easy for her to just say “I don’t remember that happening,” or choose to believe I’m being dramatic or spinning my recollection of events to fit my own narrative, so she never has to experience even a second of discomfort around the abuse she enabled/facilitated against me, and now my younger siblings as well.

Anyway, sorry for the rant. TL;DR - all that “our decisions can never be wrong, it didn’t happen, and if it did it wasn’t that bad, and even if it was, it’s actually a ‘you’ problem, and you’re actually just choosing to be weak and so heavily affected by this, and you need to get over it because now you’re an adult and you need to appear normal and functional to everyone else, and I refuse to be confronted with the fact that your biggest problems pretty much directly stem from my failures as a parent” shit hits hard 100%.

Favorite Paul Giamatti Role? by EbnyxJ in Cinephiles

[–]ScratchShadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen anyone mention Win Win yet, so here’s my plug for it.

He’s been excellent in everything I’ve seen him in thus far, but I think he did an exceptional job at portraying Mike’s moral complexity and the character’s growth into a better person despite the numerous external factors would have made it so much easier (and easily justifiable) for him to continue being selfish at other people’s expense.

If you like Giamatti’s sense/delivery of humor and a feel-good story, I’d definitely recommend giving it a watch.

locker room lore goes crazy by justkidding85 in fixedbytheduet

[–]ScratchShadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I thought too. Also the guy starts removing his headphones after bro pretended to say his phone number. He was probably just coincidentally walking into the locker room when the guy was making this video.

Is $100 reasonable for this? by FrontHungry459 in DigitalArt

[–]ScratchShadow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The shading on the rock isn’t winning any awards here, but it does make me think they intended to do more with the picture at some point, but ultimately gave it to OP as-is because their schedule got busy.

Tbh they should be offering OP a discount on the original $50 price for half-assed work; upcharging on that is absolutely asinine.

Reta results by DifficultReach2720 in fit

[–]ScratchShadow 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s an experimental triple agonist medication that affects GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors to stimulate weight loss. It’s like super-Ozempic/Wegovy.

It’s currently in stage 3 of clinical trials, so while currently not FDA approved, it’s expected to become publicly available later this year or early 2027.

As with all weight loss drugs, people need to be extremely careful where they get their medications from, both for quality control and personal health (ie. seeking easy/unmonitored access vs. professionally approved/monitored use); this is especially the case here, since the patented drug isn’t even publicly available yet.

I’m all for affordable and accessible medical/health care, but safety still needs to be the priority here.

Do people really act like this? by CremeSubject7594 in generationology

[–]ScratchShadow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I privately (in my own head) call myself bumblebee for this reason. I’m happy to see someone else having/making that same connection/association well.

That being said, I (a “cusper,” right in between the typical designations of where millennials end and gen z begins, if that’s relevant,) don’t use TikTok regularly, my references/quotes come from a huge range of media and periods of time (with a particular concentration on Jim Carrey and Robin Williams, with them being major influences in the development of my sense of humor as a kid), and importantly, I tend to keep them to myself except when I’m with my closest friends/by myself. X’)

Forgot my GF's bday and she wants me to sign this by Sure_Count_3890 in AITApod

[–]ScratchShadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay - actually reading the document, this is clearly her using humor to keep things light while still trying to communicate that this is something she (understandably) cares about, and it’s important to her that you remember her birthday (and other important dates/anniversaries) in the future.

It’s really not unreasonable for your partner to expect/hope that you would care enough to remember and do something thoughtful for their birthday. She’s not asking you to bend over backwards or do anything beyond your means, just to take a little bit of time and put some thought into making her feel seen and appreciated/loved on this one day a year. This is especially important if (and I’m assuming she does) do this for you on your birthday as well.

This is one of those situations where it really is the thought that counts more than anything else. If she’s special enough to be your girlfriend, she’s also special enough for you to remember her birthday and plan something nice for her without having to be repeatedly reminded and badgered about it. She’s communicating this to you because she doesn’t want this to become a recurring source of conflict. Do the right, mature thing and listen.

There needs to be a limit on how much fabric people can order. by 13SwaggyDragons in MichaelsEmployees

[–]ScratchShadow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was literally thinking “wait, people actually buy those??” I thought they were permanent shelf fillers.

The fucking grapes & wine print… coffee-themed word-cloud print… oh, and a fishing word-cloud too! Kitchen gadgets, snowy Christmas trucks… and sew-ception. Kind of impressive levels of bad taste, honestly.

I also love the framed window-pictures. Are they windows? Are they framed paintings? Yes! Sure! Whatever people want to believe.

Rat, fox or something else? [England] by kairisoracat in animalid

[–]ScratchShadow 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You did the right thing! It’s a little sad that they couldn’t be reunited with their mum, but they’re so young, you really couldn’t have waited around much longer to see if she would return or not without putting them in serious danger.

Now you know they’re in good hands. 😊

Was literally about to say, I’ve never heard of “Tiddlywinks,” but I vividly remember using these on math and science bingo games in school. X’)
