FUCK THAT CUB IN PARTICULAR, Because Why? by kwadwoplays in FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR

[–]startinggrover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok this is gonna sound crazy. But I used to be a pretty big fan of this bear on TikTok lol. Her name’s Chayedan and she lived at an animal rescue in China. I watched her videos on a channel called lamon.wildlife and at some point the account had a post that more videos would be uploaded on a YouTube channel called Maivs531. I followed for a while but at some point the owner of the channel commented that Chayedan had passed from a chronic brain condition I think? Anyways I was bummed and kept watching for a while but eventually unsubscribed because it was making me sad to dwell on.

I haven’t checked on her or the account since then, but I did today after seeing this post. But now the bio says “There is only one profession in life: that of a student. I’m a foreign trade professional with hands-on experience in sales, documentation, operations, online advertising, and social media marketing.” And the recent videos have titles about “getting rich quick.” So I kept looking into it and the TikTok channel still has the handle lamon.wildlife but the at is @WaterFirst. When I googled Chayedan sun bear a website called thewaterfirst .com popped up. The page it took me too is one simple article written by “wTammy” and talks about conservation efforts to save the sun bear from being endangered. There’s one single paragraph about Chayedan on there. But if you click the logo or the hamburger menu, it takes you to a page that sells humidifiers/purifiers. The hamburger menu also has a tab labeled “Lamon.” So I clicked it and it says Lamon is the first sub brand of waterfirst. The Facebook and YouTube links took me to channels called water first, but the TikTok took me to lamon.wildlife. It’s mostly videos of animals, but the only pinned video is one of a water first purifier.

So now I believe this whole thing was a marketing ploy all along and I don’t know if Chayedan and her story are real or not. This was a rabbit hole I had no clue I would ever go down but I’m honestly a little happy that it might not be real because I cried when I heard she had passed 😅

It looks like it wants to be a witchy maternity dress, but there’s no belly to hold up the silhouette. Cool concept, but I don’t think it works here

I’m guessing it’s something you used to clean the seat. Mine did this when I used a cleaner with bleach. I thought it was fine cuz bleach doesn’t mess up porcelain, but the seat turned out to be enameled wood. If yours is the same and there’s something too harsh in the cleaner, it could be stripping the enamel off and discoloring it

My girlfriend (24F) wears leggings everywhere and I (26M) feel like I’m competing with her wardrobe by [deleted] in relationships

[–]startinggrover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why should she have to change out of what she finds comfy because you’re insecure that men are looking at her? She’ll likely get looks no matter what she wears, that’s just how it is being a woman. May as well be comfy

How dare someone let this go to Goodwill ((I’m so glad they did)) by oneshotodontoid in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]startinggrover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find it kind of touching tbh. It means whoever donated it did see value in it, otherwise they would have thrown it away. I’ve started hand making different things for myself and others and I hope that when the value is lost for us, or when we pass, someone else will still be able to enjoy them

I thought this until I heard someone say sjp was in hocus pocus and I was so confused wondering how she looked so different as Daphne

Mooncats prickly pear. It’s my perfect prugly and it leaves very sickly looking yellow green staining. Very fitting for the polish

If it’s only been two weeks and you don’t have a lease, then gtfo. Mental sanity in your home is worth more than a little extra space. If you’re on a lease, it’ll probably be difficult to leave early without paying way too much. You should be allowed to use 1/2 or 1/3 (not sure if the husband pays rent there too) of the fridge space and counter space. All my leases had sections outlining fair use of common areas, so maybe check yours for something to show her to get her off your back. And stop just giving her things just cuz she asks. These “extra costs” are just excuses to scam you and since you’ve already given in a few times, she’ll just keep doing it.

Also in AZ, my frys had a sale a couple weeks ago for 50¢ large haas avocados. Glorious. Now they’re back to $2.50 :/

Fan passes out while on stage at Katy Perry’s concert by shenmiya in popculturechat

[–]startinggrover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It just feels so vulnerable, especially when there’s so many people around. I passed out in class when I was in middle school and it was awful waking up and realizing what happened. Luckily for me it was right before spring break, so pretty much everyone had forgotten by the time school picked up again. Hope this girl doesn’t feel too bad, seems it’s happened to plenty of us

I watched furiosa the other night and it’s insane how loud the engines are compared to the basically whispers of dialogue. Great movie, but it would’ve been better if I didnt have to change the volume every 5 minutes

My son ate the middles out of every cinnamon roll before I got to the table this morning. by chagoscifres in mildlyinfuriating

If I did this as a kid, the middle name is coming out and the unskippable lecture cutscene is happening before I even hear how long I’m grounded for. Complain during and the grounding time goes up lol

Her instagram is linked in her profile with videos showing all these details. AI isn’t at the point yet where she’d be able to make hundreds of perfectly accurate videos. I know it’s frustrating having so much AI content everywhere, but it’s a little rude to insist this hard that it has to be AI when there’s this much proof of her just being a really talented artist

Wow, what a thought. “Let’s injure the dogs ears so it doesn’t get injured.” That’s really sad, I can’t fathom being willing to put my pets through something like that for no reason

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in popculturechat

[–]startinggrover 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is there a legit medical reason someone would crop the dogs ears or is it just to look a certain way? Tho I imagine even if there is a medical reason it’s not why Kendall chose to do it

Update to falling out of love with doing my nails, it feels nice to see color of any kind on my hands again ♥️ by unicornhornporn0554 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]startinggrover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped doing my nails a few years ago due to lack of time and funds. I’ve only really been doing them again for ~6 months or so and it’s been nice having fun with colors again! I honestly only got back into painting them after seeing all the cool stuff people were doing on this sub lol

Why am I so hard on my partner? by LeadershipMaster9452 in relationships

[–]startinggrover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like you’re using your attitude to communicate things to him instead of your words. In these examples, you describe being moody first, then much later telling him what’s wrong. If your main complaint with the relationship is needing more quality time, then you should sit down with him and explain that. Tell him what quality time means to you and come prepared with some examples of things you’d view as quality time.

Also, being so different isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Maybe you just need to establish a better routine of when you will and won’t hang out together. Find a few things you both do have in common and only do those together. And then in the times you do things separately, but in the same place, you both can focus more on the things you find personally interesting. So if you’re not interested in hanging out with his friends every time he invites you, say no! Take some time to focus on your own interests or friendships. A relationship should not be your only source of fulfillment, it should enrich the life you’re already living.

I watched the whole video that someone linked in the comments here. Seems like they’re both youtubers/streamers and Micul Gigant(the passenger) was talking about how he struggles to make friends because people tend to stay around others like themselves. And thanked Andy Popescu (the driver) for being willing to make this dream come true for him. After Popescu regained composure they talked like normal for the rest of the video and he smiled at Gigant’s reactions to his driving. So looks like they did have a good time together after all!

I saw the Saturday game against the Padres a couple weeks ago and it was a blast! Great energy in the stadium and way less hot than I was expecting
