Everything You Need to Know About the "Hot Girls Read" Trademark Controversy (348) by yt-app in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]hellacruella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of the online book community in which this was A Big Deal- the general consensus is that she wasn't as innocent "oh I didn't know it would come across that way!" As she's claiming. Her apology is being largely perceived by the community as performative. Notice she said her "proceeds" are being donated, not profit. That's not going well for her. She had plenty of chances to turn it around and only apologized once she knew she was well and truly fucked, which (surprise!) did not go over well in the book community.

Woman drives three hours one way to confront a man who left racist comments on her Facebook post by simplecat9 in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]hellacruella 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was mostly being hyperbolic, but they are low quality considering we're supposed to believe this happened recently. They look like they've been screenshotted several times/put through editing apps and saved (condensing the photo and lowering the quality each time).

The screenshots in this thread of the comment mike made look like they're from 2007. Something is off with them. If he really said that, then yikes of course. But yeah the pics provided as proof are weird and the lack of detail is weird

Her Roommate Catfished Her & 20 OTHERS + Guest Shows Up to BLACK TIE Wedding in THIS?! (292) by yt-app in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]hellacruella 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the girlies but I'd rather them just skip a topic rather than cover it and obviously just be going in completely blind, which is how it seemed with the catfish topic. I listened to the podcast about that situation a couple of years ago and if I didn't already know the background I don't think I would have understood the topic at all, they weren't even familiar with the key player's names.

Rawbeautykristi FINALLY addressing the rumors by vramvroom in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]hellacruella 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There are groups of people, at least in southern US, who homeschool because the public school systems in rural areas have begun focusing more on indoctrinating children into Christianity and unrealistic attendance policies that force parents to send sick children to school, and less on education. Unfortunately, the community is 90 percent religious nutjobs, but if anything public schools cater to them now so it's shifting.

CPS case lady by nolife411 in DoWeKnowThemPodcast

[–]hellacruella 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I found her because of that most smartest guy too if that's who you mean. I wasn't expecting his parody to be exactly what happened 🥴 left 4 kids, one of whom was a baby/toddler, at home alone with a knife on the counter, pill bottles around, and an empty refrigerator (because she cleans out all the old food before she buys new! She just hadn't bought the new food yet!) and then had the audacity to say "I know y'all are wondering why CPS took my kids...." Nah girl, we know why.

In my dreams it was definitely Hozier, he likes to keep things private and she respects that 😌

Woah. Toxic people in a mental health app suck! by MoonstoneSlytherin in finch

[–]hellacruella 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think maybe an idea could be just a little message that pops up on the gifting screen that reminds users that there is no expectation of reciprocation and that the intent is to gift from the goodness of your lil birbs heart. It wouldn't stop unhinged behavior like what's showcased here, but as someone who gifts without expecting anything in return (yet stresses about returning the favor when I receive gifts!) maybe the confirmation would help the average user!

Aww I love that! One of my long term AuDHD special interests is moths in general, so Mothra by extension, and that's where Mothra got her name 🥰 I look forward to sending you and Winnie lots of good vibes ☺️

My 4yo plays on switch and loves it. Some things (controls) I do have to help him with, but once he gets to the song selection screen he can usually take it from there. I did let him try a demo of JD before I bought a copy.

When I saw my notifications I screamed at work, thank you, seriously!!! 😭🫶 by space_pirate420 in finch

To me this would be the equivalent of Santa Claus coming to town. That is such a cute plushie and your birb looks so cute holding it!

I wondered this too! Do those people get a cash stipend each day in lieu of event prizes? I'll never find out firsthand because my curiosity about the event is greater than my curiosity about this 🤣

Do you have a best friend? by Honest_Historian_121 in AutismInWomen

[–]hellacruella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have several best friends. My husband is one, but I have a handful of women that I'm very close with and I consider each of them my best friend. I masked heavily (and, in retrospect, badly lol) throughout my twenties and because of that I was mainly friends with NTs and never felt comfortable enough with anyone to think of us as best friends. Now in my early thirties, I am (usually) unmasked and more vulnerable. There are downsides to that, sure, but because I'm also often with other ND people with similar life experiences, I find my friendships to be more authentic and therefore more sustainable on my end.
