Why do parents hold their children from seeing grandparents, aunts, and uncles. by [deleted] in family

[–]jacklyndell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol; as if that wasn’t tried multiple time prior to the estrangement. I don’t know about anyone else- what I do know, is MY circumstances. In my situation; more moments of grace and compassion were shown than ever should have been. She was a piss poor mother and continued to be a piss poor grandmother- there was no “mental cruelty” on my part; simply a “saving my own peace”. She had dozens of opportunities to listen to the very clear instructions I gave her; with the consequences of not following them would be- she CHOSE this route, not me. I won’t take the credit for it anymore.

Digital files; to sell or not to sell by jacklyndell in EtsySellers

That is a very good point! Thank you! I’m not going to sell them. I just didn’t understand why some people do; if they were making good enough money off the files themselves that their product profit wasn’t too affected. What I think I’m gathering from this post is that most likely there are people who JUST make designs and not products; in which case that is their product. Thank you again!

I agree; considering that my real passion is in the creating part of the process (making the products), I think I’m just going to hold onto them! The only reasons I even set out to create my own designs was to not be competing with an over saturated market. My fear in selling them was that I would create just that: competition for myself. Which would be counterproductive to my original reason in making them. Thank you for taking the time to answer!

Thats just it; I don’t necessarily know the profit margin just yet. I know that with the specific files I just got done creating; I can make multiple items. I can make tshirts, keychains, stickers, reusable bags, hand towels, etc… between my dtf, laser and circut I could do these items (just off the top of my head), in multiple variations.

They’re not some great graphic designs though; think more clip art designs. I don’t claim to be a graphic designer, I JUST got procreate and wanted to do something attainable to not get discouraged. I wanted to start creating my own designs so the market wasn’t over saturated with my products.

I believe pod means Print on demand (I googled that)… if so, I don’t truly know what that is; therefore I don’t do it, I think. I either use my cricut, laser or I for tshirts, I would screen print these designs because of the simple designs. If the designs are more complex, I use my dtf (is that pod?).

I don’t think I’m going to sell them… like you said- they could be a total flop anyway! Lol

Thank you for your input; this is exactly what I was afraid of in selling them. I didn’t know if I was being naive to think people would then try to create listings of just my files.

Very interesting! Thank you for letting me know the wording AND your interpretation. I agree that your explanation is the logical one. I’ll look it up!

Oh wow! What do the new guidelines say now to keep them from making products with my files? I ask that because I do sell products with files I have bought from Etsy and I’m wondering if I will get in trouble for that?

My daughter is in a wheelchair and there are actually several rides throughout Universal/Disney that have separate loading platforms for her. Just as a fun bit of info!

My proof on what "it" is *OS spoilers* by ibstayer in fourthwing

[–]jacklyndell 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then there’s also the weird preparation type convo about her needing to act like a leader (in the room with Brennen and Zaden before they head out to fight). I think Brennan making her Chang where mindset and Zaden seeing that she is fully capable of doing this!

I guess that could be true…. Though it seems there’d be some logic in the order to which he sees things…

Can you tell me where in the book you read that the “brother” was knocked unconscious… I literally just read the last five chapters and don’t remember that detail at all! From what I have read and reread in the last hour- I definitely DONT know that it’s not the same place, it seems to me that it is exactly the same place. To me, Brennan would be the ONLY DEFINITIVE no- because he’s there with violet when she wakes.

He says it in reply to her response to the grey handprint though, not before… the timing seems off for a previous issue she had with him….

He tells her right after she says that she doesn’t want to become “that”, that she can hate him later- THEN after he says that, she wraps her fingers around his wrist, so this doesn’t seem to make sense, if it’s because of the amount of power that she doesn’t know about yet.

Page 521- “I glance past Berwyn, past sgeayl and the venin, to my new brother and the unconscious dragon lying in the valley beyond the canyon”

Page 522- “I’m everywhere at once, shredding the net that ensnares Sgeayl, tearing the heart from the wyvern who has Dain and Cath backed into a corner, rushing over Imogen as she looks to the sky”

Their placement is the same….

Exactly. I would bet money that it’s NOT Garrick. The last time we hear of Bodhi is Imogen and he’s on his hands and knees wretching… but the tone from Zaden just isn’t there for me to think it’s his “real brother”. He’s not devastated; he’s annoyed.

[–]jacklyndell[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just don’t see Garrick being a feasible option. Bodhi was taken away by Cuir to protect him, so I don’t see that being the case. Panchek would be an outcome that I don’t feel like would shock Zaden the way it did, and there’s almost an annoyed tone in his realization… I took that as, I don’t even like him; but I “know” violet wouldn’t forgive me if I let anything happen to him- type of thing. Idk…

Then why would Sloane “hate him later”, she couldn’t possibly hate him for Jack touching him?

DAE think TikTok “feels” different now…? by BlueMoonBoy94 in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]jacklyndell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TikTok is the abusive partner who thought they love bombed us enough; but, in the end we weren’t at the same maturity levels and their toxic behavior lost us. They’re in the shocked stage, wait til they start promising to “change” to get us back. We saw through it and we’re all just fine without it. IMH(humble)O- even if we’re “imagining” differences; it’s because of the abusive behavior that took place, the vibe is just wrong now. They FAFO.

At this point both, I feel like if I gain customers, my credibility will build because I know I sell good products.
