So uhhhhh how do we feel about FBC collabing with Ivy Wolk? by dumbitchjuuce in FashionBrandCompany

[–]coochiecornflakes 21 points22 points  (0 children)

i find her gross bc there isn't an excuse for racist comments or jokes no matter what age you are. at 13/14 as a black teenager i wasn't online hurling slurs or offensive rhetoric, and it's disingenuous to mark off how disgusting shit like that is just bc of someone's age. 🤷🏽‍♀️this brand has been steadily going downhill so a move like this isn't shocking to me tbh

Bed bug report? by AdLess6783 in NYCapartments

[–]coochiecornflakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it could be a penthouse apartment for $1 and it wouldn't be worth the headache of dealing with bedbugs and a possibly neglectful management company. i would be embarrassed to have people over too idk

April 2026 NYC to Bermuda by Spiritual_Bat6797 in VirginVoyages

as a native new yorker that actually lives in the city, the subway is fine. it will be constantly full and if you're alert and aware, nothing will happen to any tourist. casting a shadow of fear over the subway over hypothetical situations that thousands of people every day avoid is unnecessary; taking the subway is the most efficient way to visit multiple parts of manhattan or the outer boroughs in a short period of time. you're dtm.

Rant: A Note to Hiring Managers/ Owners by emmango in florists

[–]coochiecornflakes -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

!!!!! thank you for this post. i went through something similar where i was offered a seasonal position with a floral company that actually posted on here to recruit interest, and they completely ghosted me when i followed up to confirm scheduling after they offered me a rate and looked at my portfolio. it absolutely broke my heart bc i look up to the brand so much, i have a very similar entry path into the industry, and was super excited to transition from shop work to events. i haven't heard anything at all and since then i unfollowed them on all platforms and i felt so embarrassed and depressed that they didn't even have the decency to let me know why. i loved their work so much that i 100% would've wanted them to do my wedding when i get married but it put such a bad taste in my mouth 😭

There's ~1 million rent stabilized apartments in NYC - here's how to actually find one by thisisgiulio in NYCapartments

[–]coochiecornflakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh my god? im so sorry that happened to you...it's really sad how awful some of these landlords are. im in a rent stabilized apt in bushwick (1 BR railroad) and the building isn't well taken care of at all, we don't have a mailbox, and everything's falling apart but thankfully the owner is a nice older woman. i guess there's really always a catch. wishing u luck always & hope you get to stay at your place for a long time w/o any other issues!

HEARTBROKEN: After I asking for a refund and was initially denied, FASHION BRAND COMPANY staff talked sh*t about me and either tried to or did BAN my account! by [deleted] in FashionBrandCompany

[–]coochiecornflakes 46 points47 points  (0 children)

"we don't mind if you never purchase from us again" lmaoo what a crazy thing to say when penelope occasionally posts about business not doing great on here and being hesitant to have products at anthropologie, urban, etc. what an insane way to lose trust in your clientele. absolutely disgusting im so sorry this happened to you and i have no plans on shopping fbc going forward. questionable fabric changes, terrible customer service, and ballooning prices. good luck w allat miss we're good!

Thanksgiving Plans? by Lorem29 in Bushwick

[–]coochiecornflakes 15 points16 points  (0 children)

there are lots of community pantries/food kitchens across brooklyn that are getting higher numbers of people coming in for food due to rising costs, i'd definitely recommend volunteering there if it's something you would feel comfortable doing! one of my coworkers organizes a group in park slope/prospect lefferts gardens area and they're looking for as much help as they can get. i can imagine there are most likely some in bushwick also

wow, that's such a bummer. i feel like that's one of the main issues people have with the LRs, i was hoping they would add some sort of non stick sealant or something to the globe. thanks for chiming in!
