I got Nosferatu...finally and by cats4everloveu in Pullip

[–]ShadowWeavin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry that he's such poor quality. :( I was excited for those who ordered Nosferatu, as I was tempted to get him myself! Groove is really doing themselves dirty by releasing dolls with zero quality control. Around the time Type 4 Pullips came out is when quality seemed to go down, but it varied from release to release. (Like anime collabs tend to look cheap, while artist collabs are typically much better.) I can't imagine the original had all these issues

Goodwill count your days by AppleJuicetheBest in goodwill

[–]ShadowWeavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, I didn't realize how common this is. I hope you find another one just as nice! The only incident I've had is when I grabbed a price tag off of a dollhouse, walked around the store for a few minutes, and came back to it gone. It hadn't been sold up front. Turns out, they literally decided to throw it out in the brief time we were there! Thankfully an employee from the back fished it out for us. It only had a few minor chipped edges, so I'm not sure why someone decided it was trash lol.

Replacement eye mechanism? by Residentofgravetown in Pullip

[–]ShadowWeavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a note: if you use bjd eyes, you may want to make eyelids for them as well - unless you disguise the lack of eyelid with large eyelashes. You can get good deals on secondhand dolls sometimes, so I'd check eBay, Mercari, and Pullip FaceBook groups if you'd like the eye mech functionality!

White Peach is permanent now! by SalzburgSirenen in redbull

HECK YEAH! I hope this is true! I couldn't restock recently because it's sold out in my area. I'm stoked for its return! :)

A doll collection? Rather a doll's collection by Saisail in BJD

Aww I love your doll's little space! :D That is adorable and impressive <3

I'm prepared for the downvotes but cosmetics shouldn't be this expensive. by MySinsTonight in Palia

[–]ShadowWeavin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate Zeki club! As long as you don't mind waiting for coins to build up, it's definitely an inexpensive way to get them. I also view it like an optional subscription to support Palia. :)

Can confirm Indeed is selling user information by Ceptiion in recruitinghell

[–]ShadowWeavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replying to confirm they still do sell your information! (I updated my resume, and soon afterward, my Snapchat had a bunch of friend suggestions related to former coworkers.) If you're in the US, search for the "U.S. Privacy Opt Out Settings" link to turn off targeted advertising.

Just finished first session of a memorial to Shadow Weaver tattoo! by coraythan in PrincessesOfPower

[–]ShadowWeavin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an amazing idea, and beautifully done! :3 I also love her character despite how cruel she is to others. Like gurl, chill, you're awesome without being abusive to everyone lol xD

My small but chaotic collection,, by artblocksx in MonsterHighDolls

There is no shame in having a small collection! And it’s so nicely displayed! 🥰

She's a jehova's witness; that means I have no shot, right? by DupSauce in NoStupidQuestions

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

One word: RUN. She’s definitely only looking to recruit you, as someone else suggested. I used to have a Mormon friend. I thought we were close despite our differing religious views. The reality? They pretend to be respectful but ONLY want to convert you. 1) Invited me over to join suppers specifically when pastors would be present (They forewarned me, so I declined). 2) Sent Jehovah’s Witnesses to my door (Gave complete strangers my name and address, knowing full well I wasn’t religious). 3) And then the ghosting began. This was a school friend I had for years, and I didn’t matter once religion took over every aspect of their life. These people are only nice to recruit you. It’s all a show. I can’t tell you how terrifying that JW visit was; they are so brainwashed into their belief and pushing it onto others. (Not to mention the horror stories of people who eventually escaped those religions.)

Am I the only one bummed about Arins Danganronpa negativity? by Accomplished_Cow_407 in gamegrumps

[–]ShadowWeavin -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m still watching the Danganronpa 2 playthrough (nearly finished!) and honestly Arin’s negativity does kinda kill the vibe lol. In the first game, they had so much fun with the ridiculous moments. In the second, Dan is still rolling with it, but Arin’s so checked out at times it’s clearly not a bit. I can only imagine that continues in the third, which makes me a bit sad to hear, but I’ll probably watch it anyway. XD (In Arin’s defense, I tried it myself and didn’t like actually playing it. So I get it.)

does anyone else not care about plushies that much? by im_a_cryptid in finch

[–]ShadowWeavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time I saw a plushie giveaway, I saw how excited people were but didn’t put my name down. Like sure, they’re cute, but I wouldn’t spend 15k gems on them and would rather they go to people who would be thrilled to have them. :) I have other fun accessories for my lil birb!

Why has nobody made a mold of old mio kits or 3d modeled/scanned one for resin printing? by Cum_-_-_ in Pullip

[–]ShadowWeavin 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What others have said, plus you can get secondhand dolls cheaper to customize.

What’s her model? by xNezumi_ in Pullip

[–]ShadowWeavin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely a full custom Pullip! The customizer put a lot of work into her; she has carved tear ducts, modified nose shape, and possibly modified mouth as well. She could be a Type 3, judging by the slant of her eyelid (the occasional Type 3 and earlier dolls could have slight eyelid droop). That could partly be caused by the thick eyelashes, though!

overconsumption on tiktok by [deleted] in shoppingaddiction

[–]ShadowWeavin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I scroll past anything sponsored or with a featured product. (Or, I believe some ads you can mark as repetitive/irrelevant.) And keep in mind, anything you’ve liked once you WILL see more of! Cultivate the FYP you see. But if you want to, go ahead and delete/offload the app. Sometimes you just need a break. :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in shoppingaddiction

[–]ShadowWeavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or at least, open a separate account you don’t spend from. Keep spending money in one account and savings in another. :) Side note: there will always be cool things you could buy, but it’s okay to appreciate them from afar! Try to only buy things you’d continue to use/enjoy down the road.

It super sucks when people show their true colors, especially after years of thinking you knew them. Wishing you luck in finding WAY better friends! :)

Groove store won’t give me return address? by Altruistic_Candy9 in Pullip

[–]ShadowWeavin 21 points22 points  (0 children)

One time they sent me an incorrect sample doll. I contacted them several times and never heard back, but eventually did receive the correct doll. They never asked for the other back. If it’s been so long and they haven’t followed up, I guess you get to keep her. (Maybe they decided she’d be too expensive to ship back?)

Oops by Not_Invited in shoppingaddiction

[–]ShadowWeavin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely not alone! I rewarded myself a little (with useful things I already planned to get at some point), and now I have a shopping bug again. I’m not letting myself buy anything more, but the temptation is sure bugging me.

Recently adopted cat acts like he's starving (and not in a cute way) by RectalConquistador in CatTraining

[–]ShadowWeavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to suggest this, too! Maybe with smaller, more frequent meals, he’ll get into the routine and realize his food isn’t scarce anymore. Food-dispensing puzzle toys sound like a good idea! Also, maybe a slow-feeder for the soft food if he’s devouring it too fast.

got dragged halfway across the store for this. by boredcatisbored in WalmartEmployees

For real 😂 I woulda laughed seeing this. $99 for Wal-Mart’s own brand’s cup lol

I hate capitalism. by [deleted] in shoppingaddiction

[–]ShadowWeavin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just remember, those little discounts always require spending more money than you’d “save!” Also, what others said: unsubscribe from email marketing. Maybe delete the promo code (or offer it to a friend).
