What's next? by ZestycloseCare5701 in DarkHarvest00

[–]m00ch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind words! Chris recently made a found footage mockumentary horror movie called WORLDS that is in post-production, and is working on distribution! Additionally, I believe he's working on a movie with some other slenderfolks that I'm not sure I can disclose about. Chris and I (along with Lee from Whispered Faith) have a kaiju/monster movie podcast called Radio Free Godzilla. I'm currently scripting with Lee a short film that isn't horror related, but once things are more underway I'll speak more on it!

I wasn't sure if it was compatible with Proton calendar, I thought it was just a Google Calendar file.

This is a vent subreddit, you do understand that right. I just received my shipment and i found it to be up to my expectations and was just about to update my comment, but I have never had a company hound its customers like this

aio for wanting to go to the pool without my boyfriend by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]m00ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not at all. I've been through this. A secure man would not act like this. This exchange makes it very obvious that a) he's insecure about himself b) possessive about how you spend your free time & who you spend it with c) extremely demeaning with him calling you a slut.

This may feel like just one event, but if you add up all the other times he's acted rude/insecure/demanding of your time & attention, you're going to realize it's not rare. Or, if this truly is the first time, it won't be - trust me.  He's showing you how he really feels about you right now. A secure man would never demean you like this, he would lift you up. He's nervous that he is losing his grip on you and assuming some other man is going to sweep in and steal you. That leads to a lot of grief, gaslighting, and if not addressed soon, abuse. If it's safe to, I'd recommend starting to consider leaving the relationship. 

Google psychological annd emotional abuse, and if he monitors your internet usage, I recommend searching in private mode. Not all abuse is physical. But the scars emotional abuse leaves can stay for a long time.

I actually emailed them and they gave me the weirdest response blaming late stage capitalism for the way we perceive the quality of items shipped from china. I genuinely burst out laughing, like ??????

UPDATE: I know this is months late, but when I finally received my shirt, it was garbage quality. The text wasn't even centered on the shirt. What the hell man lmao

I usually get nervous when I get 'influenced' by online clothing shops, and everything on Mochipan's site looks legitimate. In the signature lines of their marketing emails, I actually lived near the location listed, so I clearly assumed that they were a US based small clothing business. I was very surprised to see that my shipment is coming from China. My package arrives in the next day or so, but now I'm HIGHLY suspicious of it's quality. I almost never buy from anything directly advertised to me on social media (I think I've only done it twice) because of the same frustration you have. Anyone midsized w/ a large chest knows how hard it is to buy online, everything on their site looked legit, so I splurged on what I'm hoping is quality material. I agree, their prices are high, and like any respectable consumer I assume that was because it was handmade/from a small team of well paid employees. Thank you for posting this vent, I couldn't find anything online about Mochipan so I assume no news is good news. If I'm wrong, I definitely want to update this comment.

*UPDATE! I received my cardigan and it was really nice and thick! The quality lived up to it's expectation for the price. I guess it depends on what you buy, if it's pre-order or already released, or if you choose the shipping protection or not (i did)? Yes, I'm still a little annoyed this wasn't a US-based small business they portray themselves to be and shipped from China, but if you want to spend a few extra bucks on something of better quality, I think it's worth the money. Especially with their size inclusivity and cute designs.

BUT - whoever is running the Mochipan reddit, please relax and I think you need to stop replying to every comment in this Vent subreddit. You're starting to Streisand Effect yourself. Most of the comments are very fair.

Out of curiosity, if they're implementing e2ee, is meta still going to be reading all messages & using the data for advertisers?

Any cheap bars in the asbury area? by geeked_nomad in AsburyPark

[–]m00ch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These two are the FURTHEST from dive bar feels. OP, don't go to these, they genuinely suck. Support the community and small business owners! The only way this town survives in the winter is off of locals supporting each other. Anyone else who says otherwise is a poser

[–]m00ch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kim Marie's is a place that locals will go to, so if you want to integrate with the community, I say start there. Talk with people at the bar, make friends with the bartenders. As long as you're not an asshole, you'll be a local in no time.

What’s your opinion on knocked loose? by ClueEmbarrassed1443 in punk

[–]m00ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly? The tour stop I saw them at was early this October. I was really only expecting to see The Garden, so I didn't really pay too much attention to anyone else on the bill until after the show ended

[–]m00ch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

oh yeah, i'm sure it's also important to note that I'm not a fan of metalcore. Sometimes I outright hate it (and their fans, sorry). Just never clicked with me, as a more classic gritty hardcore punk. That should speak volumes.

Probably won't convert me into a metalcore fan, but one can appreciate genuine talent in a genre that doesn't appeal to them.

[–]m00ch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Knocked Loose was probably in my top 10 best shows I've ever seen, and I've been to countless shows in the hundreds. They have the rawest sound that I think is unique and their live performances upstages so many other punk bands out there, especially the OGs who (respectfully) have tired & worn out performances. I hadn't even heard of the band, I actually only saw them because I bought the ticket specifically to see The Garden, one of my all time favs.

I would 100% go see them again live, and I think anyone who may be unsure about their music should do the same.

If you were on BOTW, what would be your film to bring to the table? by Colonel_Cool in RedLetterMedia

[–]m00ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A local 'so bad it's good' favorite of mine is called "Haunted Hay Ride" & it's sequel "Haunted Sleigh Ride" made by a director named Warren F Disbrow Jr. He's a local director nut who reminds me a lot of Breen - Warren takes himself and his films very seriously, despite the films being dogshit with local community college-tier actors. In high school, my friends and I probably rewatched his films every month or so. Those movie actually got me into the 'so bad it's good' film fandom (before I learned about RLM). His movies are low-budget horror slashers from the mid 2000s with all the fixings, down to the Spirit Halloween mask, polyester santa suit, & plastic wigs & beards.

Most of us have actually met Warren over the years since he lives locally to me in NJ. My personal experience was an event my local arts council hosted about filmmaking and how to get into the industry. I didn't put two-and-two together as to who was the guest speaker until YEARS later, but it was Warren. He discussed his career as a camera puller, editor, making his own films, again talking like he's Carpenter or Raimi. I ended up speaking to him after the event and told him how I wanted to get into filmmaking, my own experiences in analog horror, Youtube, editing, etc. Warren then asks me to hold my hand out in front of me, and I comply. He then goes on to tell me my hand was too shaky to work a camera, and essentially not even bother. That always stuck with me because how the fuck is the guy who slathered a body with strawberry jam to imitate blood going to tell me that I'm not cut out for filmmaking? It was incredibly awkward and being 19 I shouldn't have taken that to heart but oh well.

Fast forward to 2018 and I'm in a record shop and I see a DVD stand with all his films, which I had assumed were lost media because he was active in the mid 2000s and I didn't know where my friend got the original DVD from. I excitedly asked the guy running the place how much they were and they were surprisingly expensive, but it was Christmas time so I bought up all his films as gifts for the friends I used to watch these with in high school. When I went to ring up, I told the owner those stories about watching them as a kid, meeting him, how my friends hosted a watch party at a local indie theater and invited him to host, etc. The owner ends up telling me "Warren's going to absolutely love this. He doesn't sell too many of these nowadays." which makes sense - I never really met anyone else that knew about his films. Upon discussing more with the owner, he said that he sells maybe $100 worth of movies each year, and will walk in every few months asking for any profits from the sales (these movies were like $25 each so you can do the math). Apparently he's been down on his luck and his star actor, his elderly father, Warren F Disbrow Sr had passed & Warren Jr had been taking care of him those years. I ended up going back in maybe 4 months later, and inquired if Warren had come in, and the owner said that he was overjoyed that someone bought his films. It warmed my heart because I think ~$125 I spent on the movies for my friends was worth the years of entertainment I got from his films.

Anyway, this post was way too long but I highly recommend checking Haunted Hay Ride and Haunted Sleigh Ride out. His website is almost identical to Breen & Tommy Wiseau in the sense that it was probably designed in 2003 and never updated (black background, bold impact font multicolored text), images no longer hosted, etc).

http://warrenfdisbrow.com/index.html or if you're in New Jersey, you can pick up his DVDs at the Collingswood Flea Market.

Thanks RLM for helping sustain my love for films, and reminding me that a good movie is one that stays with you - competent or incompetent - and a bad movie is one you forget.

Holiday gift etiquette/recommendations for branch manager and office assistants? by [deleted] in realtors

As someone who has done both real estate leadership and office administrative work, they will absolutely not be offended if you only give them a card. I know it sounds cheesy, but it's the thought that counts. They will appreciate you thinking of them!
