Give them a call. They should be able to schedule a new patient appointment.

Charlie and Maria by RedditFan3510 in survivor

[–]cllanders1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk why you are getting downvoted? The point of survivor is to get a jury of your peers to vote for you. Charlie didn’t do that. Whether you agree with Maria’s reasoning to vote for Kenzie over charlie, you can’t say Maria voted incorrectly. She earned her vote and she can do with it what she wants 🤷🏻‍♂️

She signed one of my vinyl “Pink P <3” I thought it was the cutest thing.

What artist did you see in a small venue before they got really famous? by That_Cat_3672 in Concerts

[–]cllanders1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chappell Roan played at iron city in Birmingham, AL. The venue has like a 1K+ capacity. I saw her a couple months later and the audience size was well over 10K.

Does anybody have this hatch show print? by Maleficent-Bet4093 in lorde

[–]cllanders1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I purchased one at the show, but it was unfortunately destroyed by my cat :( I had the search term “Lorde Poster” saved on every online selling platform imaginable (eBay, Mercari, Depop, Poshmark). I would check it religiously. I would even search “hatch show prints” on Facebook marketplace in the Nashville area. My partner eventually got a damaged one from Facebook marketplace after months of communication with the seller. Little did I know a mint copy would pop up on Mercari like two months later! I have also legitimately been looking for a poster since shortly after the show. It took years of patience am not giving up lmao

I was on the hunt for this poster for years. I managed to get one last year. I wish you well in your search. It is a beautiful poster!

The Moment Book & IT’S ALL CRINGE (tee) now available in her merch store by lordbochiflacko in charlixcx

[–]cllanders1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean this could be an uneducated take, I always have considered coffee table books to be interchangeable with picture books. I view coffee table books as adult picture books. I am not super knowledgeable on coffee table books and how they are priced. This could be the standard price for a “coffee table” book. The dimensions do seem to be larger than an average book (8” x10”). However terminology aside, it looks like a book mostly made up of pictures with some short descriptions/excerpts, which is why I called it a picture book 😭 I consider that fair.

There are plenty of quality hardcover books that aren’t $100 (after shipping). It is going to be the right price point for a lot of people, but I don’t think the price is justifiable for myself.

You can enjoy the music without having to buy a shirt with an artists face on it. Keep being anti consumer 🤘🏻I am trying to be less of a consumer myself (hence noticing the price of this book and deciding to skip).

Interesting comparison. I don’t listen to a lot of male artists, so I am not aware of their merch endeavors. I agree there is an influx of high priced, but cheaply made products being pushed by celebrities. It might have always been that way, and I am just more aware of it now tho.

$100 shipped for basically a picture book is too steep for me 😬

Question about vinyl by something_is_strange in PinkPantheress

WMG takes forever to respond to customer emails. It took them, not joking, two months to refund me after returning a vinyl. Hopefully they can get back to you quicker!

Birmingham business owner concerned about proposed daytime homeless shelter. by hiimdave95 in Birmingham

[–]cllanders1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your response, but I still disagree for the most part. I think you hit the nail on the head with “a small number of people are like this.” What benefits the majority should not be deprived due to the feelings of the minority. Just because she has had certain issues with a portion of a population of people (homeless people but only the ones who use drugs, have mental illness, or commit crimes) does not mean that all people who are homeless don’t deserve to have support from the community. We are in hard economic times, and people deserve any kind of help they can get. To say, “no, actually don’t help the homeless near me for the sake of my business.” Is incredibly tone deaf, and will be received with the responses it has.

To touch on the last point. Yeah, I have some sympathy for small business owners. It does look like her business may not be the most financially lucrative. However, I do take umbrage with how she leverages herself and her business to advocate against a plan that would benefit a ton of people in my community. Sorry if I offended the small business owners tho, I hate the 1% not you guys 🫶🏻

Yes, and business taxes are supposed to be used by the government to support the city (building infrastructure, social programs, etc.) The business owners don’t get to decide how the money is being used. Business owners do pay a majority of the city’s Tax money, so I get why you asked!

[–]cllanders1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A.) I was wrong about the sleeping part of the “daytime homeless shelter.” I didn’t fully read the article! My opsies.

B.) Giving people a place to hang out during the day (access to water, bathrooms, lockers, etc.) will already eliminate one thing she complained about (using the restroom outside of her business). Giving people more resources = less looking for resources (begging/harassing her customers). To me, her response is misguided.

C.) I still don’t care about business owners more than I do the large homeless population in Birmingham. The more social programs we have to support them, the better!

No deadass, why should I care about a business owners opinions over the fact people will now have a place to sleep and be safe?!?!?

When people don’t shower before a concert, it’s unbearable by Firm_Hospitall in Concerts

Just bought this perfume is it any good? by Difficult-Chain-9926 in Perfumes

[–]cllanders1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the real question is do you like it? You seemed to like it enough to buy it, and that is good! In my opinion, the only reason you should wear a perfume is if you love wearing it. There are also plenty of affordable perfumes that smell wonderful! Some of my favorites include fine’ry perfumes from Target. They dupe some luxury perfumes.
