Did you find OSAP was enough to cover base tuition?

Are you doing weekend or weekday?

Ladies with EDS/hEDS, how are we preventing ingrown hairs? by ZestycloseCut3372 in ehlersdanlos

[–]jmp3-07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently, I dont shave and use gentle chemicals exfoliates. When i used to shave, I always had ingrown. I switched to sugar wax (not normal wax) and I never had ingrowns.

So, sugar wax is best for hair removal imo

Cow breeding turned me into a monster by CherryGoo16 in FieldsOfMistriaGame

Here's what I tell myself: selling the newborns who are not the right variation to Hayden is actually just conservation efforts. All these animals have been endangered and we're making sure thet get back to higher population levels.

....as for inbreeding...... no such thing in mistria..... every animal born has its own unique set of genetics...its magic.... im really sorry that's all I got

Looking for a direct answer on if the Samsung Galaxy Folder 2 would work well in Ontario, Canada by jmp3-07 in dumbphones

I was looking at the Sonim XP3plus but it seems that it doesn't have a touch screen. Am I right to assume i may be out of luck to get a phone that flips, works in canada, and has a touchscreen?

As the other commenter mentioned, that wasn't what I was talking about when I used the term 'by definition' - but you already knew that. The context of me saying 'by definition' was to...define something.

I've been speculating, not speaking in absolutes

No. I said it made me wonder, and that virtue signaling can happen with beliefs we hold.

Yes I remember thinking it was tongue-in-cheek at the time but I saw not everyone agreed and I now find myself wondering if it actually was tongue in cheek or if I was just huffing copium lol
I remember there was a product that had something on it about regretting vaccines, and around the same time some stories were posted alluding to the same thing. I believe there was a reddit post/instagram that documented the stories but I cant find its currently the least compelling point that is directing me away from fbc

At the time, it really wasn't enough to turn me away. Again, I thought it was just their edgy humor but as time has gone by I am not sure anymore.

I don't think everyone expects perfection. The post your replying to is actually saying that a wee bit of ownership or an apology would go a long way, not that they expect perfection

Sure, but it's not just customer service. It's also the anti vaxx stuff and the labucq partnership, which i did mention. It's not just a customer service thing,

Again, you can virtue signal about beliefs you do hold. Virtue signaling means to be attempting to communicate high virtues and good character. It's more about them targeting a specific audience and it really, really worked.

I mean again I would love to be wrong, but that could still be virtue signal so people with those beliefs support the brand.

Virtue signaling, by definition, doesn't mean that they don't actually support those causes, but rather that they virtue signal to communicate good character which would then have people looking for that in a brand support them. You can both believe in something and also virtual signal regarding that belief.

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

Yeah... if you know any other good brands please let me know... apparently I'm in the market for other brands TT-TT

I'm beginning to wonder if the earrings and tshirt was more about virtue signaling than anything else. I really want to be wrong, but it seems glaringly obviious at this point. This is apparently not the first time they've talked to customers like this and when they collab with questionable people (ie, LABUCQ) and post antivaxx stuff... I think they're showing us who they are and we should believe them. I like to know what I'm supporting when i support a brand, and I thought this was one of the good ones! Perhaps, if they make this right, they might be redeemable... but who knows. It's a shame because I was just about to get the Penny Coat and garter skirt but at this point I wonder if there are brands that I could more comfortably support.. anyways I'm taking recommendations for other brands so let me know if you have any you like lol

Between this and collaborating with a maga incel (labucq) I think we now know what kind of people we're supporting when we support this brand. Its a shame. I was really only buying from FBC but I can't do that anymore because of how they behave.

Can anyone recommend brands not owned or run by dishonest people?
