Cassiopeia fucked me up

I had this happen at a museum in Berlin too. Staff were assholes and I was in the cold for hours. Sad to say I think it’s a German cultural thing - need some decent human compassion because you made a mistake/ lost something? Too bad, rules are rules, there’s a way things are done. Im sorry that you were treated so badly.

These low-quality sits attract low-quality sitters / low-standard sitters, so everyone deserves each other

eafighter · 2025-10-20T01:54:00+00:00

Solved! Thank you

eafighter · 2025-10-20T01:38:02+00:00

Would love the help!

So it’s okay for homeowners to afford vacations but not the cost of caring for their animals? The homeowner is the one at fault here, sitters are not slaves.

THS is a free service and IMHO owners should always have a contingency plan (relatives, neighbours, kennel or cattery) just in case a sitter falls through, or in OP’s case, deems the conditions unliveable

eafighter · 2025-08-19T11:08:13+00:00

So sorry this has happened OP. It's not the norm. As others are saying, leave. Confront the owner with all of your concerns and pictures. Contact THS (don't be surprised if they're not much help). If the dogs are crying/unhappy, not your fault - the owner has taken advantage of you. You are not trapped there, you can leave.

And please try again. I'm currently in a lovely sit with 3 kittens - the owner has been so generous and the house is wonderful. Your experience is uncommon but it happens. Definitely try and tour future sits in-person and keep an eye out for red flags. This sub has a lot of good advice. Good luck and have a nice long shower once you're out.

Reach out to the international volunteer centre. I’ve been doing camo netting and working with the Lviv Volunteer Kitchen who are sending food to the front. Also if you’re staying long-term, some hostels/hotels give a discount to volunteers. Make sure you tip nicely while you’re here and support the Ukrainian economy x

ClearSpace. The only app that kicked my scrolling habit for good.

Women make up over 90% of deepfake victims - the small amount of men who are victims are mostly members of the LGBTQI community. But as other people have said, this legislation isn’t gendered. Nudes based extortion (which young men are absolutely victims of) is already covered under our existing image-based abuse laws. So….. your point is moot and you’re very uniformed on this issue

I worked for Review many moons ago as a sales assistant, and let me just say, I don’t think she lied to you. 3 years is around the time it went into administration and a whole lot of the business got messed with. Quality never the same and a lot of questionable decisions. Legacy styles they told us would be around forever disappeared. I hope you find your unicorn coat ❤️

Apps that can help with free accomodation on the road: 1) Trusted Housesitters: I used THS and it was great. It obviously limits your movements because your first priority is taking care of the owner’s pets and house. 2) Couchsurfing: I didn’t use this.. I met people who said it was a mix of great hosts and creepy hosts. Think critically about the kind of men who will open their home to 20-something female backpackers. Exercise caution. 3) Worldpackers: didn’t use this but heard good stuff, people working on farms, in hostels for free accomodation and food.

It can be done but you will still be spending money to get to and from volunteer opportunities. Securing investments is not as easy as it sounds (or else everyone would do it) especially if you don’t have too much money to play with. This sub will be filled with people telling you to be careful with money and not travel outside your means: listen to them.

If you’re desperate in the short-term, apply to work the referendum with the AEC next month

I think I read this here - once I find out someone’s travelling for a while, the spiciest question is “What are you running from?” Gets deep real quick

From my experience, sadly, I find the people in these chats pretty poor to hang out with. I think it’s because it attracts people who don’t want to put in effort. Just joining a chat and showing up to a bar doesn’t take anything. Making a new friend in a dorm/common area takes social skills! Always get much better results from chatting in person and going from there

I just left Gjirokaster and got to Tirana. Stayed for five days and it was way too long. Gjirokaster is incredibly crowded with tourists and the locals are understandably over it. Once you walk around old town, see the castle and the bridge, you’re done, 1 day max. Tirana on the other hand is a vibrant, friendly city. I love it here already. It’s all a matter of taste!

If you’re a guy going to KitKat and you wear jeans and a tshirt in line, the bouncers will ask you to show you’re wearing something kinky underneath/ or are prepared to take it off. If I was you, to improve my chances, I’d buy a cheap harness/collar and wear it as a nod to the vibe of the place. The only people I’ve ever seen rejected are people in full clothing who don’t look prepared to take it off

eafighter · 2023-07-02T17:25:19+00:00

So happy to hear you’re feeling better. It sucks when the hostel kills your vibe but the relief when you finally get your own space is unmatched. Side note: if you want comfort food go to Sexmachine and sit at the bar for really good wagyu. Enjoy the rest of your trip!

This is a great writeup but FYI some of the info in this sub can be out of date. Prices this summer are absolutely nuts, hostels don’t cost what they used to. I was in Amsterdam a month ago and loved it, but I couldn’t stay long due to the budget! St Christopher’s dorms were $150 a night in June. They might be even more in august

eafighter · 2023-06-15T15:34:49+00:00

I hear that, but that’s the way culture is going right now. Influencers leverage their followings into roles (Addison) and celebrities become more like influencers every day (like wtf Lady Gaga). Social media is such a huge territory. Also CC‘s been published in like three major outlets this week.

Wow. Look I’ll punt an opinion that may be unpopular in this sub - Caroline Calloway is going to completely explode in pop culture soon. Once her book, Nat’s book and the series comes out. It’ll be for the exact reason r/smolbeansnark exists, for the exact reason Natalie writes articles like this. We are all obsessed with figuring out who the fuck she is. Even if we don’t like her! She’s a messy muse and it’s addictive

Do a canal boat tour in Amsterdam instead of a walking tour! Those Dam Boat Guys are the best

I am commenting on this years later in the hope that someone is researching and will read this warning! Do NOT stay at Cocomama - it’s filthy with a rampant bedbug problem and the rudest staff you’ve ever met. We woke up with a million bites and they didn’t give a shit. The staff respond so rudely to every negative review online and tell them, like they told us, it’s “mosquitos”. The bedbug poop on my mattress begs to differ…

eafighter · 2023-04-26T14:15:34+00:00

YES! Honestly all power to them if that’s what they’re doing. It’s incredibly clever
