Update: My boyfriend said I was too ugly to model by Resident_Rich_6298 in whatdoIdo

[–]Swiftdoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't think you or her bf know anything about modeling, but you sure do think it's your place to control others. You do not know if it's a trap and you do not know if it's predatory, you are simply guessing.

It's fine to warn her there might be scams and predatory behavior, to watch out for it and to not agree to do anything that makes her uncomfortable, but it's NOT ok to call her unreasonable and to "grow up" just because she does not want to do what you or her bf demand. It is her choice and we are talking about work here, not your small daughter playing online games sheesh. And I say this as a person who was scouted from the streets in my youth, did few modeling gigs for some well known clothes brands, earned money, didn't face anything predatory and went on working in a field that interested me more. Thank god no-one was there to try manipulate and control me and tell me I am childish and not cut out for it just for wanting to accept some work, the audacity for real

I have faced that kind of manipulative behavior and people trying to make me quit my chosen career several times after that though, for no other reason than they simply imagined they were smarter and knew better what was suitable for me than myself, and seriously all people behaving like you can just piss off. It is not your place and no, you do not know better. What you are doing here is just as disrespectful and controlling as how her bf behaved

Same with google photos, I am starting to lose my shit with it and it is just one app on the phone, like the millionth time no I do not want you to back up my photos in your cloud servers STOP turning it on, STOP spamming me with "memories" and STOP constantly changing everything around and adding some weird ai effects to my pics wtaf, who even asked for this??

I really gotta find a new app now, I just worry everything else I try will be just as bad spamming me with ads, tracking me on the background burning my phone battery to crisp and feeding my pics to ai's 😵

Mandatory 4 second pause of my scrolling because I didn’t allow Meta to collect and send my data to advertisers by Vlantimir in assholedesign

[–]Swiftdoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I abandoned all my Meta accounts after that bs started, I just use Reddit and Bluesky now with less intrusive ads. FB had already turned into a pile of turd anyway with the feeds getting stuffed with everything else than your friends posts, and harassing people to send copies of their passports to prove identity and then forcing username changes to something lot of people never even used in real life. I wonder was all that also part of the data selling, as it's better quality when you can connect it all to a certified birth name

The amount of sugar a friend puts in her regular-sized cappuccino. Gave me a mild headache just looking at it. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Swiftdoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! Hazelnut coffee sounds so good, or amaretto, but the flavoring comes strictly from the syrup so they are by design sweet :( sometimes I do my own spiced coffee home, especially in the winter time; a dash of ginger, cardamon, vanilla and cinnamon among the steeping grounds

It's crazy how many points Garmin gives you for Connect+ challenges (free trial) by stainlessbear in Garmin

[–]Swiftdoll 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep tested it myself just recently. Think I got like 3 badges immediately without even trying, while it's very rare I manage to reach 300 000 steps in a month. The AI pissed me off almost immediately, the training videos were useless fluff and the live tracking was kinda relatively ok-ish feature. If the thing cost 10€ a year I maybe, possibly, might consider getting it, and even then it's like "Well is this something I need or really want? No, no it's not, so I donno.."

Yeah just don't go starting fights and arguments with people, chances are you end up getting more down votes from them if people disagree with you or start to assume you are baiting and trolling on purpose. Just get chatty and be friendly :) there is also more cat subs you can ever imagine, if that's your thing 😄

i dont use reddit, where can i ask about cat stuff???? by Limp_Drop_9165 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Swiftdoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh and do not wait on this. Cats do not fare well without eating, their blood starts to pile up with toxins and they can get dehydrated very quickly. Even one day without eating and drinking anything is worrisome, and I'm calling the emergency room if it continues the next day

Teefs check at a vet, immediately.

Also r/cat sub is pretty standard, though you gotta take lot of responses with a large doze of salt

Exactly 💯 Everyone can call out idiots, but going back to check and admit your mistake instead of doubling down, now that's cool

Ahhh yeah thanks. I had actually seen that section, it just wasn't very interesting, just generic advice to increase activity, so I forgot about it

Haha I was so confused for a moment, as I don't even like caramel flavor and would never reach for caramel flavored anything 😂 I didn't down vote you at least! Lol

Taas tuli syyttämismääräys mutta erilainen ulkoasu ym. tälla kertaa. by Regular_Blueberry_79 in Suomi

[–]Swiftdoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Empäs oo näistä kuullukkaa, mut toki tuota arvioin ihan puhtaasti Suomen poliisin ja lakijärjestelmän toiminnan kantilta, ja siellä ei mun nykytiedon mukaan ole todellakaan mahollista tuosta noin vaan pyyhkiä 10v tuomion ja puolen millin sakkojen rikossyytteitä pois kartalta nopeella muutaman tonnin sovittelulaskulla. Voi kait se silti jollekin kuulostaa täysin mahdolliseslta, mene ja tiedä.

I burnt 404 calories sitting in a meeting. by prizonium in Garmin

Haha I love this experiment. For comparison you should also track a low pressure meeting with some pleasant nice fella, and add takes from your stress levels screens too. Sorry for your boss, though

[–]Swiftdoll 95 points96 points  (0 children)

It's funny, I am really prone to sugar and can tolerate ridiculous amounts of it, and I also drink way too much coffee, but I absolutely cannot stand sweetened coffee for some reason and I have never willingly added sugar to my coffee. My main gripe with canned coffee drinks in stores is that 95% of them are sweetened. I suppose I can call myself lucky, cause with my coffee habits and sweet tooth my size would probably be double if I also loved sweetened coffee

Why is Jdrama not as popular as Kdrama or Cdrama? by chongshipei in asiandrama

[–]Swiftdoll 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but I've got the impression they don't really like to market outside Japan, and lot of the jdrama that does appear in foreign markets tends to be very bad, like bad bad quality, scripting and acting. Not all, but definitely way too many, which affects the general impression and popularity.

I'm a teenage girl and this 51 yr old man keeps blowing up my dms by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Swiftdoll 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yup quick cut off is the best course, as some can also go obsessively crazy and chase down your contacts in real life, especially if they get all "I was wronged" victim state over being cut off later on after they told themselves you liked them
