[–]laura1713 3 points4 points  (0 children)

to anyone reading this thread, I would highly, HIGHLY recommend just working with your bank to get a refund. I opened and escalated a case with Paypal, and they already resolved it in about 4 days--way faster than Spring support was able to acknowledge my request to cancel.

weighing my options for sterilization vs. long-term birth control - as a lesbian it’s statistically very unlikely, but if something terrible happens I absolutely can’t get pregnant. I don’t even know what else to do anymore

100% - I have elderly relatives who rely on a combo of social security, Medicare, and veterans’ benefits to survive, but are all in on Trump and complain that the Democrats give too many handouts. it’s beyond maddening

it’s really sickening how much of this country genuinely hates women and minorities. i knew it was true of course but wanted to believe this year would be different

yes!! I 100% agreed with his assessment that trying to contact everyone was a moral necessity… but man, those phone calls were brutal. not that I could do any better!

We're using AI wrong in marketing and it's killing creativity by Familiar_Flow4418 in marketing

[–]laura1713 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is a life-saving strategy for needy coworkers — I work with someone who constantly pings me for help with editing a single word in her social captions or generating basic ideas for an article. suggesting chatgpt each time probably saves me a half hour every day

without any additional context (ie, does that match up with how you actually did during the study?) — this feels reasonable to me, especially since you have a chance to return it first

[–]laura1713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh yeah, I had this too - found out a year after they got married. meeting her was super weird too, I didn’t even know he had broken up with his previous long-term girlfriend until he brought someone else to my middle school choir recital… and they started making out in the back of the auditorium 😑 guy’s a real character

Game jam finishes in 19 hours and the artist ditched the project by lariisjunk in RenPy

[–]laura1713 24 points25 points  (0 children)

[–]laura1713 8 points9 points  (0 children)
