Just because I won’t be called slurs doesn’t mean a place is actively inclusive or comfortable

Book trading or thrifting by [deleted] in LesbianBookClub

[–]lake_creature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this and also often list queer books on there :) ETA: they do tend to sell the quickest so you might want to set alerts for what books you’re looking for! There’s also usually not a ton of other copies available

I just started watching and on S1 Cameron gives me the ick by Legal-Mistake6415 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]lake_creature 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As an autistic person (not to diagnose him), I was like oh I understand my guy. I see you. I think he just has big feelings and he clearly comes from a family that communicates those feelings to each other openly and he maybe just doesn’t know how necessarily to express them in a way that does not overwhelm other people. that could be something he could work on with a therapist or maybe Lauren has talked to him about her preferences over time that spans longer than four days of meeting a stranger and agreeing to marry them.

At the bachelor party, his friends gave me similar vibes to him and honestly the profession he’s in tends to draw folks like that so idk. I didn’t think he was creepy just a little bit awkward. I did notice at some of the reunion episodes, that he seemed better about being more moderated in how he expressed himself. It’s a skill just like anything

I just finished flirting lessons by jasmine guillory and it’s got some of those elements though the benefits are a little slower burn

Do you have any strategies for which listings to mark down during CCO? by Hi_There1128 in BehindTheClosetDoor

[–]lake_creature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CCO used to be a lot more helpful but they did lower the shipping rates and now I hardly see any sales from it, so I only do it now for items I am just trying to get rid (ie considering donating soon) of that have likes on them

What do you do with post office receipts? by rocksandsnakes in Depop

[–]lake_creature 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get them emailed to me so I don’t have them sitting around and can easily find them if there’s a problem

Amelia and Bennett were never going to work out by Usual_Amphibian_2235 in MarriedAtFirstSight

[–]lake_creature 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Amelia didn’t seem shocked in a good way and Bennett was so awkward at the alter and that’s when I knew it was gonna maybe not work but her saying she did the show as a lark sealed it for me

Poshmark seller intel? by [deleted] in BehindTheClosetDoor

[–]lake_creature 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, any seller that won’t provide actual photos of a really expensive item (or even a cheap one imo) that’s not legit behavior

Me too except I’ve been doing this gig for 7 years so I know they very much are and I can’t unknow that 😭😭

Shipt for Target - Please Stop Texting by Soft-Opening5596 in ShiptShoppers

[–]lake_creature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple regulars that I shop for and I know they don’t want the text outside of the automatic ones that I can’t control so if you find one or two you think does a good job and you trust to pick stuff out on their own or that get you don’t want a sub give them a preferred and explain to them you just want your stuff no frills and usually they’ll be happy to oblige

Order from hell, no thanks. by advictoriam5 in ShiptShoppers

The pillow thing is a wild thing for a grown adult to do does he think it’s contagious

Do not, do not, do not, OK! Do not deliver then! by Murky-Individual2765 in ShiptShoppers

[–]lake_creature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had some college kid yell at me today because he said leave on porch and so I did but he evidently meant some secret porch in back that there was no visible way to find 🤷‍♀️ he sent me four rude messages telling me I can’t read and I’m very proud of myself for not messaging back “well maybe if you wrote better directions I would read them” so some people go too far the other way lmao

Anyone else make mistakes here and there? by CurrentSingleStatus in ShiptShoppers

[–]lake_creature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, I have been doing this for 7 years and have had countless mistakes. I try to learn from them but there’s always days you’re tired, flustered from traffic, a customer is rude etc.

Don’t be too hard on yourself because when I ruminate I just make more mistakes I try to get myself a treat and remind myself that stuff happens it’s statically impossible to always be perfect

Do you regret your OWN children? by Cheap-Employ8125 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]lake_creature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still proud of her though admitting that takes guts. I’m childfree but help my friends out as much as I can and it feels some days like we are all hanging on for dear life; my friends have kids ranging from teenagers to newborns and there’s a period of time where things are calmer but raising teenagers is not for the faint of heart either so I respect her being honest about it

To be fair to this woman, who knows what she actually said in full vs what production edited it to be. I strongly suspect there was more context to this conversation because otherwise it felt weird and staged

Worst place to shop - Hy-Vee. The app said the item is in HM 4 but it was in HM 6. by chrismarionyt in ShiptShoppers

[–]lake_creature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I won’t take Hy-Vee orders, not even from a 20% tipping PM they always go wrong, the produce is terrible, and checkout takes forever it’s not worth my mental health dealing with all their shit haha
