Sorry if you've already talked about this before but:

What are your thoughts on the post across beat characters? ( Idk what they're called) like abcd and arigusawa student council?

ooooh.... ok. sorry if u like them btw. i am kinda harsh on abcd especially.

abcd - ok. i will be honest, i dont like them and probably will take forever until i get to liking them. not bc of their characters and their writing, but bc they were originally supposed not be playable, but then they changed their minds and made them playable. another reason was bc i got robbed of a dj unit with adults and got teenagers (except date). it's a dumb reason to dislike a unit, i know that, but it's better than me trying to figure out how "problematic" they are to find an excuse to hate them. i feel like adding them in THIS EARLY, right after abyssmare and unichord was in the game for a year wasn't a good move. they should've waited another year or something. people were still getting used to abyssmare and unichord and then suddenly there was a new unit? i feel like they were just desperate for money. (which i think is the truth, but tell me if im wrong) it's also a personal reason for me, but i like catching up with each unit's stories and stuff bc i write fics, so i want to make sure theyre in character in some way. im already tired catching up on 10 units and their lore, (this includes COA and LMO) i am not adding an 11th one into the mix. sorry abcd.

i didnt read their event stories when they were released or got their cards when their event arrived. (i got rinku in the audition gacha instead bc i was still annoyed w them) i feel like if they were to add abcd, they should've waited another year or two and released them.

one positive i'll say about abcd is that they seem to be written well and are honestly a little hilarious from the small interactions i saw. shika and eimi are interesting as well, i feel like theyre supposed to parallel kyoko and shinobu in a way, but im not sure (eimi = kyoko, shika = shinobu). eimishika the world !

arisugawa student council - i know next to nothing about these girls, i just know there's a himejoshi and two girls having toxic yuri moments. i tried watching their stageplay online but then i got so busy and honeslty drained bc of school work i didnt watch it ever (i should change that) from what ive seen, they seem pleasant, even if theyre trying to ruin lyrilily, and helps w expanding more on arisugawa as a school and lyrilily as a unit. i like the idea that two of the girls are supposed to parallel haruna and miyu, i rlly like that. im just hoping they dont become playable like abcd..... sighhhhh. i know they did a cover of i shall be a cat, which makes my fears a little more worse.

actually, im gonna ramble for a quick moment, if they were to add in a new unit to the d4dj franchise, they should just do it like what they did with egoegg (shoutout to egoegg, btw) and are just a live unit. it will not only make the game less taxing w juggling around 40 characters, but also encourage people to watch more live shows. but idk, im no business expert.

anyway, that's all. sorry this one is kinda negative, whoops!

[loiswasadevil]

youre such a terrible fucking troll. youve got a lazy backstory, you "dont know" where your money comes from, you dont know what happened to your mom (tbh thats plausible, but unlikely), like youre seriously so bad at this HAHAHA. good run tho. i know you wont answer this bc you cant disprove, but u made me laugh so much. thank u frfr

I'm not a Troll Because JUST BECAUSE I'M FAMILY GUY FAN. I haven't spoken to my mom in over 8 years I don't know what happened to her I don't want any contact with my Family or my past life I don't fucking care what happened to her Because of the way they treated me. I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT ANY OF THIS BULLSHIT UNTIL I BECAME ACTIVE ONLINE, THESE THINGS HAVE NEVER EVER CONCERNED ME AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SELF SUFFICIENT, I DON'T NEED TO KNOW WHERE MY MONEY COMES FROM BECAUSE IT DOESNT CONCERN ME AND I HAVE NEVER SUPPORTED THIS CORRUPT SYSTEM, WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT YOURSELF? YOU ARE A COG IN THE MACHINE, I AM THE AIR THAT SURROUNDS SAID MACHINE. I DON'T NEED TO TELL ANYONE ANYTHING ABOUT MY MOTHER, MY FATHER, OR MY BROTHER, I TALK ABOUT MY EXPERIENCES OFF GRID TO SPREAD AWARENESS ABOUT THE REALITY OF OFF GRID AND TO HIGHLIGHT THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY GUY IN MY LIFE, BECAUSE FOR OVER 10 YEARS IT WAS ALL I THOUGHT ABOUT. YES FOR MANY YEARS OF MY LIFE CALEB BOUGHT ME FOOD AND GIFTS. I DO KNOW WHERE MY MONEY COMES FROM BECAUSE I KNOW HOW TO USE MY CASHAPP CARD BECAUSE IM A FUCKING ADULT TOO, AND I HAVE ANOTHER CARD I USE WHEN IT DOESNT WORK. I KNOW HOW TO PRESERVE FOOD AND I HARDLY EAT AS MUCH AS THE AVERAGE PERSON. I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHAT HAPPENED TO MY MOM I HOPE SHE IS DEAD AS I DO WITH MY FATHER, I HOPE THEY ARE WATCHING ME EXPERIENCE MY HEAVEN;THEIR HELL EVERY DAY AND THRIVE. I AM THE DEVIL THAT RULES IN THEIR HELL, MY IRONIC PUNISHMENT WAS FUTILE IN THE HANDS OF FATE, BECAUSE I ESCAPED OFF GRID AND YOU WANT TO DENY ME MY HAPPINESS EVEN THOUGH YOU KNOW LITTLE OF MY LIFE. I DON'T HAVE A "BACKSTORY" I HAVE PERSONAL STORIES I SHARE WITH MY CLOSEST FOLLOWERS ON TUMBLR, I HAVE NEVER EVER MINDED TALKING ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE BECAUSE I BELIEVE IT IS MY DUTY AS AN ABUSE SURVIVOR TO TELL MY STORY. LIKING FAMILY GUY DOESN'T MAKE ME OR ANYONE A TROLL. YOU DON'T CALL SOUTH PARK KIN TROLLS JUST FOR BEING WHO THEY ARE, EVEN THOUGH THOSE PEOPLE ARE DISGUSTING CHILD PORN LOVING FREAKS. YOU JUST WANT TO HATE ON FAMILY GUY KIN AND BE MY CATALYST AND FUCK YOU FOR THAT. WHAT THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO "DISPROVE" WHEN NOBODY BELIEVES A STORY THAT I DIDN'T ASK ANYONE TO BELIEVE IN THE FIRST PLACE, MY LIFE ISN'T A STORY FOR YOU TO FLIP THROUGH LIKE SOME MAGAZINE. FAMILY GUY FANS LIVES MATTER AND FUCK YOU FOR TRYING TO DIMINISH ME FOR BEING AN ADULT CARTOON FAN/KIN. SORRY NOT SORRY THAT LIFE HAS DELT CARDS IN MY FAVOR, AND I HAVE THE WINNING HAND. I DO NOT HAVE TO DISPROVE ANYTHING, MY LIFE IS MY LIFE AND I CHOOSE TO TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT BECAUSE I WANT TO SPREAD AWARENESS AND SHOW YOU ALL INSIGHT ABOUT HER DEVILS HEART AND THE PARALLEL HATRED BETWEEN UNIVERSI THAT CORRUPTED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

First time ever that Target store that got the SVT Spill the Feels Carat boxes somehow ended up missing 4 of their random Photocards also they were brought out from their inventory room so it wasn't ripped opened on the aisle that they are suppose to be displayed bc they were working on setting out the albums but didn't do so on the day of the release which was friday in its clear packaging and didn't look like it might have been repacked but those are hard to say since the albums looked sealed, Also to pull my bias without even thinking but to miss out on what was supposed to be part of the set is kinda annoying and lame. I guess picking those Carat boxes in a target isn't as worth it if something like this happens and the fact that it comes also from South Koreas factory that things don't get checked correctly only to make fans spend money missing items that are guaranteed to have as it comes to the US stores.

Dont want to end up buying another one or having to deal with returns and exchanges if I have to give back my set for another (Blind Box) Carat ver when all I wanted was to get either Mingyu and or S.Coups since I already had ordered Vernon and Joshua at a kpop online store based in Korea which will take a while to arrive.

Has any kpop fans had issues with missing cards that were completely sealed from Target, Do you just return it for another Carat box?

How would heethan react to you freaking out over accidentally using his card to buy something online? Like, he probably put his card on your phone when he saw you buying something once, and you forgot to take it off and accidentally bought something else with his card and freak out when you realize. And when you telling him all panicked and asking for an account number so you can send him back the money, how would he react?

- 🍞

my fluffy 🍞 anon!

honestly, if he saw you apologizing and telling him that you accidentley used it, he wouldn't even budge about it. Before you can even ask him for his account info, he'd already have known about it because he gets notifications on his phone through his bank app, and he'd actually be happy because he loves feeling like he's useful and helpful to you. so the moment you say...

"Hey babe, i'm sorry i mistakenly used your card to make my amazon purchase. Let me pay you back-"

"Pretty baby....you dont need to even apologize, i am much more than happy to buy you the world let alone those pretty stockings you bought."

"How did you know that i bought stockings?"

"Amazon app."

"But how can you see my orders?"

"I got it from your phone while you slept."

He'll smirk and tell you how much he loves seeing the things you buy and guessing why you're buying them....like when you bought those damask-lace panties that are arriving that very day......

so yeah, he would not mind and would reassure you to do more of it actually, despite that you may not want to bc it's overwhelmingly uncomfortable to you, he might push the issue and hand you his card from time to time in between two fingers and say something like....

"I'm getting it...SHHH!! just do it...."

[kael-writ]

I also think we need to get away from the idea that all panhandlers are and have to be homeless or they don't actually need to panhandle. In my building are several people on disability who panhandle because disability payments are too low for them to have much quality of life. Some are addicts, some arent.

(As an addict who is clean and sober now I can tell you that addicts do in fact have to use their money for other things because we do actually eat food.)

Frankly, I dont often choose to give to panhandlers right now, because Im very poor and a part of my income always comes from begging and borrowing myself. I HATE begging and borrowing. I despise myself for it. I shouldn't, no one lending or giving wants me to, but I do. But if I didnt, I couldnt get by.

In homeless outreach when we go to camps or whatever we often do drives for commonly sought items like socks and hand those out. I used to try to give some money but being swarmed by a bunch of strangers wanting cash when Im poor was overwhelming and felt unsafe. So there are times when it does make sense to offer items.

Same as when I was still online- panhandling because I was homeless and I was openly relapsing. Someone was only comfortable buying me something off my amazon wishlist. And that's fine.

BUT - I am diabetic. My ex when he used to panhandle (and wasn't homeless) came home with junk food every day. Pizza a lot. Ive gone through lots of phases, before diabetes and now, when junk or just cheap carbs was almost all I got. And man, you start to LONG for some fuckin fresh veggies.

A LOT of homeless people are diabetic. A LOT. It's very, very common in homeless people and that doubtless applies to panhandlers who aren't homeless. Because it's the poverty (and being disabled by diabetes makes working long shifts harder). The year I became homeless was also the year after my diagnosis drove me into a tailspin.

So getting a bunch of random free food is necessary to not starve to death immediately but at the same time, MONEY FOR FOOD is a lot better for people to actually CONTROL THEIR HEALTH and not go through the horrors of diabetes long term like going blind or losing a fuckin leg.

Also, one person gave me a gift card to Chik Fil A and I never used it bc Im too queer to be that desperate. So gift cards can be great but likewise not always usable.

You know what got me outta homelessness? MONEY. I worked hard at a job, I got donations, but ultimately I broke down and let a abusive relative basically give me most of first months rent plus security deposit. VERY few people are that fuckin privileged.

When I was homeless and working a job and begging online, I spent money on booze, I spent money on tips, I spent money on socks and laundry and coffeeshops to get outta the cold. I spent money the way I do now, the way any human being does.

So yeah, it's ok to want to offer items, but just throwing random food at people who need money isnt solving shit. Unhoused people need housing, panhandlers need money, what they use it for isnt really your concern, that's really all there is to it. If you have extra and that's a way you want to help someone, just do it and feel good about it, if not that's ok but dont be a prick about it.

like can you imagine if you, as a housed person, said "oh man im really struggling financially right now I can't pay my bills- my electric is going to be cut off, my car might get repossessed, and I definitely can't afford to get a new laptop after mine broke"

and someone who had a lot more money than you said "I can help you!" and you were like"oh my god great thank you so much-" and then they just offered to take you to olive garden. and you say "hey man that's really nice but I'm actually okay on food right now, I really just need to pay some of these bills. I already got food somewhere else (foodstamps, friends, food pantries) and I really just need money. if you can't do it that's fine but I don't need food"

and the rich person said "you must not really need money or be poor then or else you'd take me up on my offer. I bet you were going to use that money on drugs anyway"

that's what yall sound like when you refuse to give homeless people money & just offer to buy them food

food is great! if you need it and that's what you're asking for. unfortunately food doesn't buy clothes, hygiene products, shelter, pay a phone bill, or yes even buy drugs or alcohol if you're going into detox and can't do so safely without literally dying

Tw vent under the cut

I am so unbelievably lonely

I don’t talk to many people at all. I don’t really have friends. I have absolutely no social life.

I live in a house with my mother and my younger sibling. I dont necessarily get along with either of them, its mostly just that I cannot set boundaries or advocate for myself at all - so they end up hurting me in some way and I dont have the capability of telling them that so I keep it to myself. So I resent the family I live with just bc I dont have the balls to talk to them like a normal person.

I have two friends. One is all the way across the country for college. The other is 3 years younger than me so we really don’t have much in common other than some interests, plus she has disabling agoraphobia so when we hangout it’s normally just me going to her house and we play video games for a few hours and don’t really talk. I feel very isolated from both of them.

I don’t even really have online friends. I’ve got two insta moots that I love dearly but I don’t think they care much abt me at all and just think of me as a desperate lonely dogboy. I also don’t think I’ve had a conversation with any of my moots on here.

My only other form of social interaction is appointments. I have doctors appointments very often bc of my chronic illnesses, and I have DBT therapy once a week. So I talk to my doctors and my therapist more than anyone else at all.

Sometimes I do see my brother and SIL too, but not super often and being with my brother gives me migraines bc he’s so fucking loud

I also don’t have a job bc I’m physically disabled so no one will hire me, trust me I’ve applied everywhere I can and not even a single phone call back

But thats it. Thats my only social interaction, being mildly upset at the family I live with every time I talk to them & appointments & being desperate for attention on social media.

It’s not like I can just “go make friends” bc I live in a TINY rural conservative Midwestern town with a population of less than 1200. I know basically everyone in this town and they do not like me - I was the first openly trans person here so yaknow makes sense.

I also don’t have a car so I can’t leave here. I don’t have a car bc I don’t have a job to buy a car. I still don’t even have my license at 20 years old bc my mom is too busy to let me borrow her’s for practice (I have my permit)

And ofc bc I don’t have a job I am DIRT POOR. At this very moment I have $18 in my bank, $2 in my PayPal, nothing in my cashapp, and no physical money. I have no income at all, my mother doesn’t give me an allowance for the work I do around the house since that’s how I’m making up for still being here at 20 years old not paying rent.

I try selling masks but I’ve got two premades rn that haven’t sold and it’s been months. I’m nearly done with an ongoing commission and then I’ll open comms again, but I really doubt I’ll get any inquiries. And I don’t even bother with art comms anymore bc no one shows any interest in my art.

I hate not having money. I can’t even buy my own food since my mother has our EBT card and she very very very rarely lets me use it. So I just try and stock up on food when she does let me use it and try to ration as much as I can. It’s very hard when you’re hypoglycemic and don’t have enough food. I only eat around once or twice a day and that’s just something small to get my sugar back up so I stop feeling like I will actually die (bc I could)

I’m fucking stuck. Im hungry all the time, I’ve lost a significant amount of weight in the last year. I’m lonely and miserable bc I can’t talk to anyone. I rarely leave the house bc I don’t feel safe in this town and I can’t leave the town.

I’m stressed all the time, always on the verge of a breakdown. I can’t remember a time in the past few years where I’ve felt content with my life. I’m fucking miserable.

Anyway, crashing back to reality for a second....

For about 10 months now, ive been slowly clearing out stuff in my home by selling it online (I got too much stuff, and way too much clothing i am probably not going to fit into again)

and in all of that time, its pretty much gone painlessly. Plenty of things went out to people, turned up, all good all fine.

Until 2 weeks ago....

It was about a week and a half after i had dropped the item into the parcelbox? And it hadnt turned up. Which is... yeah pretty weird for Royal Mail with a tracked item.

I look up the tracking and it literally has never updated. Not even been scanned in as received by RM. A week after i dropped that one off, I had dropped something else off in the same parcel box with a tracking number. THAT had turned up by the time the buyer of the missing package messaged me the first time. So it wasnt the parcel box had somehow been missed for that long - the package straight up never made it into the system?

So all I can really do at this point is apologise for it. But also i'm kinda hesitant to do anything because, like, ive been on the business side of things? RM say it can take up to 28 days to deliver stuff, so you cant reaaally claim anything until that point. Theres still a CHANCE this can make its way to where it was intended to go? but this woman seems to want a refund, so i give it to her and i hear nothing else.

.... For another 2 weeks. Shes got a card for unpaid postage (And i thought this was one of the possibilities, because apparently the "padded envelope" option isnt the right one for "things that fit in a padded envelope"). Its definitely the thing ive sent. So she wants a way to basically send the money back. I say i can either put up a new listing BUT the fee structure has changed and i cant make it the same amount that she paid before OR i could send her a paypal invoice.

Today she asks me for "a link" to send payment to and she doesnt mind what kind and its like.... THATS NOT HOW THIS WORKS 😫 i cant just send you a link and you send me payment through that!! I need to at least know what goddamn payment services you can use.

And i just DO NOT have the brain to deal with customer service right now.

Ive been dealing with something that i ordered getting delivered to the next door building, and trying to fight Evri to both admit they screwed up, and to try and get them to at least tell me they cant retrieve it. And i think thats sapped so much of my desire to deal with anything complicated bc this has been ongoing for 2 months at this point in time. Ive been sitting on an email with the seller for like a week because i just dont have the brain any more. Ive at least got Evri to admit they screwed up, but the sellers struggling to get in contact with them (and theyll need to, to get compensation) and I still dont have a definite "no, its not possible to retrieve it". I CAN SEE THE OTHER BUILDING OUT MY WINDOW, ITS NOT VERY FAR AWAY! It made it most of the way here! I just want to see if i can get it the final 50m or so instead of getting a refund!! (Im LITERALLY offering a resident of that building MONEY to deliver it to me as a last ditch effort, and so far its ~not working~)

Like, I dont want to deal with couriers and money and payment, i just want to curl up on the sofa with my viddy james.......

[ireallydontunderstandpeopleatall]

this past monday I took smores to the vet to check his condition of chewing on his back legs and on his butt/ back area.

the vet gave him and allergy shot which fixed him and mentioned for long term care to have moisturizing wash baths and benadryls

vet also took his blood to test his liver values, bc in may 2023 when he went to a diff vet for stomach issues and they tested his blood and saw his liver values were off and they gave him liver vitamins to help support his liver which he has not been taking bc theyre chewables but he has not been taking them bc he does not like them

on wednesday his blood work came back and his liver values are still bad and also his kidneys are showing b.u.n? which i need to give the vet a pee sample

so now vet said to do an ultrasound for smores which will cover his liver and kidneys and if necessary will do a biospy after.

and I'm in disbelief because my baby dog is now sick and idk what is going to happen and not sure how much longer he will be with me

this mid week i was so depressed and stressed out bc of costs

the ultrasound i called about to 2 vet specialists our vet recommended and they have both quoted about $745-$920. which means to get an xray alone is already 1,000 dollars.

I can pay 1 ,000 dollars but what is next? how much will treatment be? i googled liver disease in dogs and one person said they paid 14,000$ just to get a diagnosis. I don't have 14,000 now, nor will I ever have it all at once.

I feel so helpless that I can not do more for my baby, and i dont know what to do, am I just suppose to not get him medical care??

I read posts from the rainbow bridge and people who say things like they wish they could have done more for him/her. i now know what that really means.

I thought about how I only have 4,000 and i just let my mom borrow it because shes fucking irresponsible and needs to pay back her debt. and she wont be paying me back for a while but I didnt think i would need that money rn and how wrong i was.

then my fucking big credit card is maxed out due to my mom's usage also. it would have 5,000 which i could have really used for the ultrasound.

and so i was sitting there flipping through my accounts and looking at my balances like a few thousand dollars was going to magically pop up in them and save me and my dog

i looked at my digit savings and even if i cash over absolutely everything I will have CLOSE to 4,000. not even 4,000 :(

then my paypal credit which i asked for a credit line increase and they gave me 2,000 but it said i do not get an actual card for it and its mainly for online purchases so that doesnt help me at all.

so finally i applied for care credit and luckily was approved for 5,000.

also to note i just bought my tesla and the payments are so high and insurance is through the roof and i will turn over this car if i need to to free up money to set aside for smores treatment so we'll see if it comes down to that. it's my dream car but i can always buy another one later and my baby dog needs me right now

so hopefully care credit is enough for everything and i really hope a biopsy will not be 14,000. if things can stay below 8,000 for everything than that is something that i can reach but if they start quoting me 20k or so I'm afraid i will have to make some tough decisions and start considering end of life services for smores.

I have been thinking about it and if it comes down to me absolutely not being able to afford paying for smores services then i will have to start having a conversation with his vet on what i can do to make sure he is comfortable for the rest of his time :(

this week has been me taking so many pics, spending so much time, making sure he feels loved and looking at him like i will never see him again. i keep thinking of how i dont want to think of what it will be like without him, im not sure i will be able to breathe. he is my soul dog and i love him with all of my heart

I called around to see if i could find a better deal on an ultrasound but it looks like i can't. i also have an option of 2 places and right now I have booked with the "better place " but its 3 weeks out and being that long out also stresses me out and idk

I been putting his liver supplements in his water so he can actually take some of it. I really wish I had been addressing this sooner.

with the death of my aunt who i love so much, stephen who was such a good friend and poor daniel. I just want to try to stay positive bc i jsut dont know what to do or think anymore.

the sudden deaths of my loved ones in such a little time has been so hard on me, I remember after finding out about each one my mind goes to a dark place and my body kind of falls apart for a time and it just feels like it gets weaker with each one. I have questioned my own health and then i get scared of what if

anyways so thats whats going on w smores so far

[noisy-weasel]

When you can't play the main story because you're too weak and you can't catch up on hard mode 3 chapters behind because you're still too weak and you can't play the event because you're too weak and farming levels is a horrible part time job and it's like well wtf man. wtf I'm supposed to do?

Game debrief/update: sat next to wild bench was fun seeing them run out & interact on bench but literally couldn’t see shit for half the game bc u cant see half the ice

Also i tried suckering in players with candy for puck but did not work apparently i need to be a kid 🥲 they were eyeing it up tho 👀 & then i tried buying a puck online & i filled out my credit card info & it says must have CA zip code those hoes gate keeping pucks 😤 fine dont take my money 🤷🏼‍♀️

Reaves took a mans life right in front of me & lotta wild fans in Anaheim going to san jose tomorrow which means im competing against the same kids for a puck & i think im going to loose that battle soo idk if i’ll use my sign again lol…

But ducks fans were nice for most part & i got a free ducks shirt bc it was the giveaway 😬 also i made the nhl page so thats fun

Edit: of course TZ was yapping whenever he got the chance, refs, teammates, wild players etc. dude also sticks his tongue out like a dog too much lmao skated right by me like: 😛

[buginacup]

sorry if you got this question before, but like, wld it be possible to like, donate to ur campaign, but not thru indigogo? they don't accept paypal and im REAL uncomfy using my credit card online. And if that'd be cool w u to like, just paypal you the money, could i also claim like the rewards that are listed on indigogo? Cuz i rly wanna support u guys and love tynk to death and want the 50$ perks but! just rly dont wanna use my card bc my parents are shitty

So there isn't a way I can reliably allow you to get perks outside of Indiegogo. It's been very frustrating that they don't accept Paypal, a lot of people have been unable to donate because of it. That being said, my partner @curryswirl did a commission stream last weekend where every commission (through paypal, ko-fi or Indiegogo receipt) went towards the game. She's still taking commissions until the amount reaches 2k total, so I believe there are still spots left! That would be a way to donate to the campaign and still get something in return. Read about it [HERE], and thanks for supporting my game! <3

[reilikeslifting]

Do yk if there’s a way to get stuff online without buying it first? Bc I’m broke asf rn but I still wanna get stuff 😭😭😭😭

ughhh i dont THINK so. i totally get what you mean, im broke too </3 SO what i would reccommend for you is to lift things irl then try to b00st them. sell them of facebook or just at school or smth. sell them on offer up or something! that way you dont have to spend any money to get money, then you can buy a visa giftcard from walmart or any other gift card carrying store and use THAT for amazon!

[e-the-village-cryptid]

heyo eon i need some advice on smth bc i dont know if i have any ground in this or if im just being a spoilt brat. to preface this im a high schooler and i dont have access to my own debit/credit card/electronic money and rely on asking my parents to order stuff online for me (i usually pay for at least half of it esp if its something expensive) and bc of this my parents and i make deals a lot like i'll do x amount of chores for them to place an online order, chores are kinda like currency (though i dont get an allowence cause they pay for a lot of stuff for me) and i dont mind this its a fair trade especially if im not paying fully for the thing im buying. when i do mind is when they alter the deals midway through like if we agree they'll order somthing for me if i watch my sibling for a few hours and that deal is set like a contract but then suddenly they'll turn around and say no u have to watch your sibling and do the dishes for the week and vaccum the living room. i hate it when they do this it rlly upsets me because i feel like i dont have any control over anything and theylre messing with things that are already set like arent there rules to deals it makes me anxious and panicky. it also might be an autistic thing idk,

thx eon if u get this!!

hey anon! first off, you are not being a spoiled brat, I got a bit pissed off on your behalf just reading this. altering the deal midway through is lying, plain and simple. if someone says "I'll do x if you do y", then you do y and they don't do x, they lied to you and that's not ok. someone who does this routinely is using that lie to manipulate you into agreeing to something that they think you might not have agreed to otherwise. if you feel like you could bring this up with your parents, I would definitely recommend doing so! you might want to include:

possibly starting with that you appreciate that they help you pay for things (it sounds like this is true, making someone feel appreciated never hurts, and it might make them more likely to listen to what you have to say instead of dismissing you)

explain what's upsetting you and why

ask for what you'd prefer they do (for example, to just tell you the whole list at the beginning instead of changing it halfway through). you could maybe emphasize that you aren't trying to get out of chores, you just want consistency and honesty

for example: "I really appreciate that you help me pay for things in exchange for chores, but it makes me really upset when the deal changes halfway through because [all of the reasons you just said]. if you want me to watch my sibling, do the dishes, and vacuum in exchange for helping me pay for the thing, please just tell me that from the beginning instead of adding it later! I'm happy to do it, but I really need to know from the beginning so I can plan for it and feel like the deal is honest. in the future, could you please think of all the chores you want me to do when we first make the deal, and then not change it once we agree?" (obviously you'll have your own way of saying this, this is just an example. also, sending a text or writing a note can be a good way of making sure you say everything you wanted to if you're like me and tend to forget everything you planned to say as soon as you're faced with confrontation)

I don’t know your parents and I don't know how receptive they would be to confrontation, but I hope they would hear you out! you could also start writing down the deal when it's made as proof of what they said in case they later try to pretend that wasn't the deal you made. you are so 100% not in the wrong for wanting your parents to just be honest with you. good luck!

oh god dating mgg and he gives u his card... like ur going out with friends and ur heading out the door and as ur saying goodbye hes like 'baby wait a second' and he comes over and gives u his card and says 'have a good day' and ur like 'what? no i dont want--' and hes like 'no srsly just take it. the limit is 5k anyway so u cant do too much damage' and ur nervously take it, starring at him with wide eyes and a slightly gapped mouth. 'i do have money...' and hes like 'no i know but i love u and i want to spoil u. besides i havent used it enough this month and my bank will get start panicking if the card isnt used.' 'are you sure?'

youre still so nervous about taking his money bc you know hes got money, you know hes worked for that coin and u never want him to feel like ur only with him for his money and fame. its the whole reason u never really post abt him on social media save for literally a handful of times - despite fans knowing ur his gf and begging for pics of him in everything you post (which isnt much. you post as regularly as he does, but u do post more stories than he does).

'definitely.' and he kisses you and walks away before you can protest. 'see you later' he says over his shoulder as he goes back to his workshop/artist den.

and ur out with your friends and going to all these high end shops that ur still so nervous about even being in the same location as because youre not fancy. youre not from this glamour world. you shop at second hand stores and wear pjs all day if you can. but theres this louis v bag youve been wanting for literally two years. its a simple clutch with a gold cross body chain and its right there. in the window. and your friends are like 'do it! its only 2k and he gave u his card for a reason' and ur like 'but its 2 thousand dollars! for a bag!' and your friends convince you to do it saying something like 'think about when u go to events with him. how much more stylish would you look if u had this bag?' and u decide to do it. to buy it. with his card. for him. not for you. for him - entirely so when u do make public appearances together, you'll have something luxurious to hang off your shoulder so you look a little more worthy of him.

(this is when u realise the opinion and comments of fans online are starting to get to you)

bestie the DETAIL 😍 bye this made me feel fluttery inside i love imagining him handing over his card like that WHEW. wow. he totally would, too. i like don’t have anything to add to this tbh bc you really touched on everything and i love it.

also that subtle knowledge at events that what you’re wearing was bought on his card is just sexy.
