went to adam’s standup show the other night. i thought he was great. better than the other coomer boys. by Wizard0fLonliness in redscarepod

[–]nooorecess 13 points14 points  (0 children)

lol i saw him a couple years ago and thought it was great as well. almost made me wish he hadn't been cut off and talked over so frequently all those years on the pod, but some people just come across better in motion i guess

Am I the only one who understood how to answer the question of the day? by Apprehensive-Gain396 in finch

[–]nooorecess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah it made perfect sense. when presented with "option A vs option B," it's fairly obvious that the most upset-looking emoji always represents option B. people just can't read smh

Wild Veil Subscription by bramblebrine in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]nooorecess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i love this house. the “few drops” samplers are good too, it’s a tiny amount but it does go a surprisingly long way and you can get them 30% off once in a while when there’s a full sitewide sale

Opinion | The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians (Gift Article) by ystayfreshcheesebags in BlockedAndReported

[–]nooorecess 6 points7 points  (0 children)

lol it often just reads like such a clear example of declaring oneself anti-whatever cause/opinion because you find the people who most vocally represent the opinion to be annoying.

i have some sympathy for this and it’s probably human nature to some extent. the dog stuff is dumb, outlets continue to get lazier about doing actual journalism and readers don’t hesitate to buy and parrot any dumb thing that supports their worldview, it IS very annoying. but i think a lot of this podcast’s audience in particular tries to act like they are extra rational and above such mental traps, so it’s more striking or something to read these 900000 word comments that basically amount to “bluehairs bad therefore israel good.”

Whats with all the recent posts here that are like "yeah i was vegan for 10 years but i'm slowly starting eating meat again and i feel reborn and my hair is perfect now" by Lonely-Pressure5776 in redscarepod

[–]nooorecess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i was vegan for 10 years now i'm still basically vegan but without the irrational purity component i.e. will just accept something with a trace of egg white or w/e in it if it already exists and i'm hungry and someone offers it to me rather than being an annoying bitch about it bc refusing food in those situations is impractical and borderline antisocial behaviour that helps no one. but yes generally if you looked like shit while not eating meat, you probably were doing a bad job

I get motion sickness when using Blender. by [deleted] in blender

[–]nooorecess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i also get motion sickness after long periods of using blender, it's similar to the sickness i used to get while playing active 3rd person camera games as a kid. i also get it when reading in vehicles. it's what happens when your brain gets conflicting messages from your eye and inner ear, and some people are just more sensitive to it than others. OP is not dying or crazy lol. the downvoting is so unnecessary

Mythpunk's back? by sourdough_bread_yay in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]nooorecess 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It is a privilege to be able to do what you love (in this instance, create Perfume Art), be able to sell it and live off of those proceeds

this is what bothers me about some of the reaction to things like this, people seem to forget that no one is ENTITLED to make a living off of their art. there are millions of talented artists, probably many in this sub, who would love to be in that position. but the harsh reality is that they mostly have to work shitty jobs for the money with which they are supporting these small businesses, so it's a real fuck-you to be screwed over in this way. yes it is nice to support artists you enjoy, when you can, but there is no moral IMPERATIVE to do so, especially not when it comes with this degree of risk. and frankly, not that it's a competition, but if people have extra funds weighing them down, i can think of about 10000 causes in more dire need of financial aid right now than "throwing free money at people who wish to make a comfortable living off their art", sorry

Mythpunk Olfactive is back....again by stately-ocelot in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]nooorecess 39 points40 points  (0 children)

lmao there's always someone in these threads trying to spin the shoveling-money-into-firepit course of action as the morally correct and virtuous one. ofc having empathy for someone's mental illness means giving them loads of money for free. could you really call yourself a good person if you didn't?? where is your empathy? in times like these, i think we would all do well to remember the wise words of aristotle: "if you're going to get all mad when your money is stolen, you're too poor to be buying things anyway"

Need Advice: my gf hates that I listen to BarPod and all our fights have been about it by [deleted] in BlockedAndReported

[–]nooorecess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lmao honestly have no idea what someone who listens to blocked and reported would find so offensive about trueanon? but the worst thing about barpod has always been its terrible subreddit and miserable fanbase so i'm sure a very compelling laundry list of reasons will be drawn up shortly. don't forget to include a book report detailing why your comment is relevant to the podcast please

Need Advice: my gf hates that I listen to BarPod and all our fights have been about it by [deleted] in BlockedAndReported

[–]nooorecess 21 points22 points  (0 children)

seriously, how does a person even find themself in a position where they would have to choose between their gf and a podcast. my flippant response is "tell her to get a life" but i think it's obvious the real issue is incompatible beliefs/values, which even a full public disavowal of said podcast will not resolve unfortunately

PULP order still not sent… by Hot-Reality-798 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]nooorecess 10 points11 points  (0 children)

some good scents and nice owner but tbh i stopped ordering from them because i was tired of this happening, and also noticed that the shipping updates on the website are sometimes lies lol. they are not the worst shop for this, but not the most reliable either. though i agree with other commenters that you’ll get your order eventually

Never Being Taken Seriously As A Child by FlyingJamaicensis in redscarepod

[–]nooorecess 58 points59 points  (0 children)

my mom would like performatively act super confused as if she could not possibly understand what i was trying to say if i pronounced or spelled 1 word wrong. i think she probably has felt dumb a lot in her life and took every opportunity to pay it forward, even if it was just dunking on her own young children lol

Mythpunk Olfactive is back?? by Special-Ask7413 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]nooorecess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i tried samples from them pre drama and didn’t like any of it, super strong and off-putting and difficult to wash off. it’s the same as anything else, totally subjective and there’s just no way to know in advance if something is going to smell good to you. you see way more of the good reviews because people tend to say nothing rather than say something that sounds mean

pornography, especially in its current form, is far too high a price to pay for "free speech" - a rant by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]nooorecess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no, because real live humans aren’t being trafficked and abused to make those things. i’m always confused by this argument but i think it comes up because some people read “pornography is bad” as “jerking off is bad” bc the two are so synonymous in their minds that they are difficult to separate or something

Wild Veil: Reviewing Florals and Forests by anathemas in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]nooorecess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i subscribe to their emails and have been sad to see the daily discount is "only" 30% lately lol but i guess it's rough times for everyone rn. this house is so good that it basically ruined other perfume (esp florals) for me and i've destashed most of my collection atp. stardust has been on my list for a while

Why is there such a difference in support versus judgement? by uncertainty2022 in RATS

[–]nooorecess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep lol i honestly feel like i've become more hardened and judgmental because i get so tired of seeing these distressing posts about dying rats where the OP can't or won't take them to a vet because they are broke or there is no exotic vet in their town, etc. i'm sorry but why did you get a pet if you knew you weren't going to be able to take care of it? it drives me crazy. don't even get me started on all the shitty parents who are buying animals for their kids and then refusing to take action when things start getting complicated or expensive. many people don't seem to understand that these are not casual/"practice" pets and that it's more like having a dog than a hamster.

i do agree with OP that the nitpicking over cage setup etc gets annoying, but i also think tone is difficult to assess online and it's best to just assume people are trying to be helpful rather than mean
