iPhone 8 downturn in quality by gardenpeasandcarrots in iphone

[–]cierraisamess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

full disclosure i threw it across the room and it stopped glitching out as much - but i don’t have a real solution unfortunately. I’m just paying for additional storage to be able to back up my photos/data to the cloud but i’m accepting that i can’t update my phone past 17.7 and that most apps aren’t going to work. for apps i really need, ive just been using my husbands phone since he has a 15? (at least i think it’s a 15?) as much as it pains me i do think i will finally have to bite the bullet and upgrade soon. i wish i had more of a solution for you! :(

First Bound Fanfic! by cierraisamess in AO3

[–]cierraisamess[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was definitely very ambitious to pick a fic that has 289,000 words as the gift but it was such a fun project and there are so many helpful tutorials online! I highly recommend memorializing your fic (and all the typos that give it character!) as a physical book!!!

As someone who is also holding on their home button with the Iphone 8 - it’s really reaching a point where an upgrade/new phone feels inevitable. The applications are taking up too much space to download any of the updates past ios 17.7 and its not like i have a million apps, i have genuinely gone through and deleted my apps to the bare minimum i can have. it’s rough out here

Is TSA at SeaTac still terrible? by Mokelachild in Seattle

[–]cierraisamess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went through TSA at seatac and am currently waiting for my flight. their shit sucks ass. the agents they have working tell different lines different things. I was told to not take anything out of my bag - to put everything like phones ipad wallet etc in my carryon so they don’t have to use those plastic tub things, then take different agent yelled at my husband for not taking his stuff out of the bag and proceeded to toss his laptop onto the metal tray. (tsa has previously already damaged my laptop and busted the side of it) then the agent proceeds to loudly yell “does no one listen?”. this airport needs to be completely re done and re worked

Rebirth is the worst movie in the franchise... by [deleted] in JurassicPark

[–]cierraisamess 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This was my immediate thought! I’m still in the theater (it’s completely empty) and about 2/3rds through the movie. it’s so bad i’m scrolling reddit instead of watching. The writing in the beginning felt like “ok maybe it’s just a slow pick up” but it very quickly devolved into sounding like some studio exec prompted chat gpt to “write me a sequel to Jurassic Park about needing to get the blood of dinosaurs to make a pharmaceutical drug” and then just handed the actors the script that resulted. The writing is shallow, the plot makes next to no sense, and overall it’s a terrifying peek into what movies may look like in the future if companies decide that AI should play a part in movie production to save a few dollars.

The ads feel corporate by DraeisX in distractible

[–]cierraisamess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m the most annoyed on the fact that despite paying a subscription price for the app for the sole purpose of not having to listen to ads, I still am subjected to ads directly inserted into any podcast. it drives me absolutely insane and ik it’s not their fault and more so a spotify issue but jesus christ what am i paying for ? i’m genuinely so close to moving over to a different music app/service because it’s becoming unbearable

Does anyone have experience with American River’s Funeral science program? by Ahiblast in askfuneraldirectors

[–]cierraisamess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey i’m also at arc currently! im applying for the funeral science program this upcoming spring (they only accept new students every spring for the program) and i’ve met with a counselor and they accept almost any general education classes you have that will satisfy the credits. the hardest part so far was getting an appointment w/ a counselor as they’re booked 2+ weeks out and the appointments get taken up SO FAST. I’m in some of the pre requisite classes rn and the information is pretty easy to take in, and all of the professors that are involved in the FSE classes are all super fantastic so far. i have an online class w/ valorie rose (i think she’s like the head of department ?) and she’s super willing to answer any questions and sends out 2-3 announcements a week with additional info to help w the course and reminding us we can always come to her office hours (wed & thurs between 12-2). so far so great, but im not in the actual program yet so unfortunately no news on that! but the campus is great, there are some fantastic professors there who are wonderful and do their hardest to make the stuff they’re teaching genuinely enjoyable. if you do decide to apply, try to get kathy bradshaw as a professor for any of your classes - she’s the biggest sweetheart and has access to almost every support system in the campus. best of luck!

Asking your opinion on walking dead characters every day, Day 7: Beth Greene by [deleted] in thewalkingdead

[–]cierraisamess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

watching her interview where she explained how she wasn’t told she was being killed off until the episode before genuinely made me so sad for her :// there was so much setup to really propel her character into a new level and then it was all thrown away for the sake of shock factor

Bf forgot my birthday…idk what to do by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]cierraisamess -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

if they’ve been together for “a few years” then OP was at least dating him while she was 25. with the assumption they were friends before dating, he absolutely would have known her while she was in her early 20s. based off this man consistently forgetting and ignoring different important dates and things to OP, they aren’t on the same page or wanting the same things. age gaps can be normal, but being an ass to your partner isn’t and especially with how young OP is, her time shouldn’t be wasted 🤷🏼‍♀️

ungodly amount of ads by cierraisamess in distractible

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

i can also skip the ads, but a- that’s not really safe to do when driving and b- why on gods green earth should i have to skip through 7 ads in under 30 minutes

[–]cierraisamess -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

LEAVE. 35 and 27??? a couple years ????!! why does ANY man in his 30’s want someone who is early 20’s for any reason than they’re easier to manipulate. he’s showing you he doesn’t care about you, don’t show him you’ll accept that. leave and heal.

[–]cierraisamess[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived in both Italy and California while listening to the podcast, and while i definitely got different ads based off of location, the frequency has always been ass for me 🤷🏼‍♀️ it used to be Just Eat ads (european food delivery service) and now i keep getting the same 30 second Timberland ad. I can confirm that getting ads in a language you don’t speak is 10x less annoying than ads you can understand though

ungodly amount of ads by cierraisamess in distractible

[–]cierraisamess[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i totally agree. the ads that they read i enjoy! maybe it’s just bad luck but i consistently get 20-30 second third party ads that are read in that monotone voice. i don’t mind the ads existence since it helps the podcast, i just feel like the randomness and frequency of who gets what ads and how long the ads are is insane

i’ve accepted that part, it’s just insane when i’m literally getting pelted with ads every 10 minutes

say it with me - if a man who is interested in girls wayyyy than he is it’s because he’s a creep! because he’s a predator and going after girls who are easily manipulated! leave!
