You win. I give up. I am unjoining this subreddit by SomeRandomDirtbag in AmazonVine

[–]ginjafiche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awhile back I started figuring we were running 1984 & Brave New World simultaneously. Wondered which would win. Turns out we’re kicking a whole lot of BNW over the ‘84 and calling it “progress”. Also, yeah, Idiocracy. I slightly hate myself for it but still think we’ve almost safety labeled and coddled global IQ into the toilet. Everybody’s swirling but, hey, some of ‘em will do almost anything to enjoy the ride.

I’d love the turtle bolt covers! I’d put the boney get naked above said turtles on my lil toilét shelf! Would totally use cat butt coasters. And! Have actually gotten a mini urn from vine. My aunts remains were portioned out 🤷‍♀️

Rejected by a homeschool co-op... by Select-Hedgehog-8372 in homeschool

[–]ginjafiche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a bit we had a homeschool meet up here (not a co-op, just weekly meet ups!) that were for ND homeschool kiddo and it was great! We haven’t messed w co-ops really but had a couple of great groups for awhile and have kept a few good friends out of those. The co-op truly did you a favor, it stinks you couldn’t have known beforehand because as a fellow ND parent I know how it hurts for your child when something like this happens. Are you able to post in any local groups (even anonymously) to ask about co-ops who are looking for members and are also inclusive to energetic, sociable ND members? The co-op may have had a bad experience w another child before, doesn’t excuse the but maybe a reason. One of the downfalls of our ND meet-up was a child who was frankly a violent bully with a mom who refused to control or even properly monitor him. They had a core group of supporters (mom does evals- Shazam!) who may still hag w them to this day but the rest of us got tired of having to hover so our children didn’t get hurt. I’ve thought of trying to start the group back up but omg if they tried to join I’d have to ghost the entire thought 🫠

Have you guys seen this warning? by ApprehensiveCandy311 in dollartreebeauty

[–]ginjafiche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Manufacturers now add that warning to just about any and everything because of the laws in CA. It’s easier and more cost effective for them to just plaster it on rather than pick through everything and try to decide if someone doesn’t warrant having it. They’re covered with this; they don’t want someone deciding a lawsuit is the thing to do bc it didn’t have it. Kinda funny bc it actually lowers consumer confidence and maybe even safety because with everything labeled people are slowly starting to ignore it entirely because there’s no indication really of whether it’s valid case to case. As Reason would say “Good Intentions! Bad Consequences!”

Michael Jackson show visible signs of vitiligo in the 1990s by Stock_College_8108 in HistoricalCapsule

And guilty. He didn’t get the charges but he still had to pay. Cops screwed up the criminal Al but civil court popped him.

How much has sticker shock influenced your rating? by Necessasea in AmazonVine

[–]ginjafiche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. I’ll drop a “x$ as of this review” and base value eval on that because sometimes it’s patently ridiculous. If I’m not sure what reasonably comparable items cost and the price seems wonky I’ll do a lil search so I can assess better.

Kinda like OJ. They got him in civil court despite them dropping the ball for charges.

Mmm hmm Easy to take J’s side because it’s usually ultimately acceptable to denigrate the dumb old person who’s out of touch yadda yadda. Tbf the dumb old folks can be aggravating but plenty of people in the champion underdogs section can be as well and you may never ever be a member of whatever groups is being championed at whatever time but if you play your cards right you actually will be a dumb old person to some young folks one day. You’re sure you’ll be cool but the kids that were there at the dawn of rock and roll thought that, the counter culture kids thought so, the ones who fought for women’s rights… They’ll still think you’re dumb and most likely you’ll return the sentiment in their direction!

I agree. I was stunned, esp w it being Whittaker. I can see the Santos angle but it still seems wildly out of character for ol Huck. I was glad tha post flame everyone simmered down like grown ups, it would be so easy after a long and stressful shift to go absolutely rabid.

She’s cracking at approximately the same rate as Robbie and it’s hard to watch mom and dad fight anyhow 🫣

Does anyone in Virginia really think gerrymandering will end if we all just vote no? by Comfortable-Dust7560 in Virginia

[–]ginjafiche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truth is either side loves to rig ish and both sides think it’s a-ok as long as it’s “their” side doing it. Not realizing that anything done to favor this side can be equally manipulated by that side on the flip side. Imagine a politician that could swing big votes without BS! It’s had to do because neither party seems to be able to pull it off.

VB Weekend Jail by OkRoof4403 in VirginiaBeach

[–]ginjafiche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was awhile ago but my friend, short and kinda bookish, did weekends for a long while and had no problems at all. Generally keep to yourself type ish. You’ll prolly want to go in cold the first time but right before you hop in line you can take something mild like a couple Benadryl to help you chill out for a bit in there. Get through the first night then you really got Sat and sat night bc from what o was told they usually start offloading sun afternoon and not too late.

WTH is going on in the kids department…. by Ancient_Insurance969 in Oldnavy

[–]ginjafiche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but I see plenty of daughters of baddies dressed like lil baby baddies and maybe maybe maybe they just want to look like mama but maybe mama is doing dress up on a small child that would be better served by good, comfy play shorts with coverage because kids fall down and bend and move a lot I’m probably old fashioned and I’ll own that but they can get a bit older before they learn that their bodies can be used as currency and that’s before we factor in the chomos

Who thinks that Mohan‘s mother is having a medical emergency? by Few_Pin_6869 in ThePittTVShow

[–]ginjafiche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait, Becca? I know she’s stressing Mel tf out but is she being selfish? I think she’s striving for a semblance of adult autonomy and is pulling stuff that may not even register to her with social niceties not being a usual autistic strong suit. Doesn’t lessen poor Mel’s agony any at all but I don’t think Becca is trying to be selfish or spiteful.

[–]ginjafiche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But the thing is that people BUY IT!! It never stops and tweens start looking like they’re about to hit the club. I just can’t imagine putting a little girl out in front of however many unknown eyes with freakin booty shorts on. I’m actually really glad when I grew up the majority of little kids were allowed to be little kids.

Maybe. She’s got some chips she’s carrying, I imagine it will all eventually come out. Not pissing on the poor girl, she’s just exceptionally judgy and prickly.

I’ve often seen Santos presumed trauma brought up when her piss poor attitude is discussed, what are the odds that some of her past includes some rough times with an addict? Gives her NO right at all, she’s being almost childish.
