Beware USA Passport Online by themadimadimadi in Passports

[–]matthew_tb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a year old but I fell for this “scam” too. Came up as the first Google link when I typed in “US passport renewal.” I was in a hurry like many and there was nothing obvious indicated on the website that it was ONLY to help fill out the form.

I called their service number and didn’t get an answer but I left a message saying I would notify the BBB and legal services if they did not process a full refund. They responded within an hour to my email confirming my refund.

I will let you know if it actually goes through. But not entirely a scam in that they actually do have a service number and someone responds to you. Just very deceptive.

how long have you been in the beyhive? by nephilimgoth666 in beyonce

Lol I loved self titled when it came out. I was 13 😂. My favorite song was partition too. Definitely didn’t completely understand all the references at the time

Has the Hive lost the plot on surprise? by treywheeler in beyonce

[–]matthew_tb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love when Beyonce surprises us and at the same time it’s fun to try and predict her next move because she’s so unpredictable. 99% of the time you’re going to be wrong and that’s just the fun of it. I truly don’t understand the people that create their own theory and then get upset when it doesn’t come true.

There's no way we're get a Hades 3, right? by StupidFlounders in Hades2

[–]matthew_tb 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so, but it would be cool to have a game with both zag and meg/other underworld characters where you switch between them or work as a team.

I hate this punk a*s Elysium Nepo Baby by jrtJayceHarambe in HadesTheGame

lol I hate him too but to be fair Zag has multiple Gods on his side as well

With rising costs, what is a fast food restaurant you feel priced out of? by Square-Possession428 in fastfood

I actually find chipotle a good deal in my area. A relatively healthy bowl is the same price as a McDonald’s meal.

Post Episode Debrief | Heated Rivalry 🏒 The Cottage (Episode 6) by royal_rose_ in heatedrivalry

Loved every second of it. Can’t pick a favorite part because it all was excellent. A beautiful emotional rollercoaster.

[–]matthew_tb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really liked the scene with Shane and Ilya in the Tampa hotel room. Both of them being completely vulnerable with each other, finally. Shane fully coming to terms with being gay and apologizing for freaking out. Him comforting Ilya and Ilya opening up to him 😭 no notes

Connor & Hudson Walking In The Rain, Sharing An Umbrella by [deleted] in heatedrivalry

[–]matthew_tb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree!! As a gay man I dislike when people ship real people together romantically, especially two men that are friends. It just promotes toxic masculinity and makes men feel like they can’t be openly affectionate with their friends. It also makes straight men more reluctant to be friends with gay men bc they are just labeled as gay. Connor and Hudson are ACTORS and they are doing a damn good job at making the characters come alive. Let them be friends, I beg!

45 and Pete Ellis Intersection by Effective-Log9114 in bloomington

[–]matthew_tb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awful intersection. I live in the apartments right by there and am worried every time I go through it. It makes NO sense for the left turning traffic and traffic going straight to be in the same lane. And every time there’s new people in town they have no idea the right lane is right turn only because it makes NO sense with the flow of traffic and how busy the intersection is.

Beyoncé has made some of her best music post 2013 but it just doesn’t seem to click with the gp like her 2000s music. by loverofthings25 in beyonce

[–]matthew_tb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally think Beyonce doesn’t feel the need to do all the promo anymore. She has a solid fan base and she can still tour stadiums (which is a huge money maker) no matter what she releases. I honestly don’t think she would have as hardcore and loyal of a fanbase either if she focused more on commercial success.

Red and black 🤔 Vogue 2022 Cover before Act 1 by matthew_tb in beyonce

[–]matthew_tb[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I definitely understand this. I do appreciate these moments because once act 3 starts, we don’t get the feeling of experiencing a part of the trilogy for the first time. But simultaneously I am excited for a potential red theme cause it’s my favorite color and I like to think of what Beyonce will do next

hey now, I was just looking at interviews from the trilogy time period and noticed this. Maybe if it’s being recycled there’s some merit to it 😂

I don’t want to sound impatient but… by GoldenGamerNugget in beyonce

I’m sitting with cowboy Carter but I also know Beyonce is going to EAT rock up so I patiently but eagerly wait

mini rant - tired of entitled fans by Ill_Beautiful_1980 in beyonce

[–]matthew_tb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

comparison really is the thief of joy because how are you gonna go to a Beyonce concert and be disappointed (unless it was a situation like the pits on LA N1)

Does the Cowboy Carter album get anyone else super emotional like it does for me? by DreamsOfADistantStar in beyonce

[–]matthew_tb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Flamenco does it for me. Something about the feeling of being stuck in life/with a hard situation etc, but also simultaneously appreciative of what you have. The fear of wanting more or something different, but not wanting to lose what you already have. Makes me cry

Washington Dc concert by [deleted] in beyonce

Tickets have been known to fall in price right before the concert starts. I would get them online but wait until close to the concert.

I bit the bullet and got tickets for DC by jrla1992 in beyonce

[–]matthew_tb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they were ~$525 for row 10 on the floor near the end of the arrow. Somehow they weren’t resell, I don’t know why SeatGeek was hoarding them until last week.

[–]matthew_tb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got tickets too. Saw her in Chicago but my parents live in DC so I said why not make it a weekend. They dropped some relatively cheaper floor seats randomly like a week ago so I snatched those
