im forcing you all to look shady-car-salesman erik
[What If Magneto Had Formed The X-Men With Professor X?]
#snap chats#DUDE WHAT IS THAT. I SCREAMED#also before any of you go read this dont it's so nothing. the title LIED it's the most nothing story ive read so far#thankfully this is only a one shot but man. i shouldve listened in that This Is Isn't Worth It#this is literally the only time erik's in the whole thing too btw bar a prologue recapping what happens in the og timeline#im so deadass like he also shows up in some bg shots but thats literally it he says nothing else beyond this page#'what if magneto formed the xmen with charles' god yeah what if. i sure wouldve loved to read that.#'what if they formed the xmen' genuinely yeah how did they do that. can we see that PLEASE.#the only perceivable difference is that erik lives at the x mansion and Probably isnt terrorizing people. and has this god forsaken look#i rescind my statement he's terrorizing ME with that beard and. //gestures everywhere else//#he looks like he's going to try to scam me into buying a shitty ferrari i cant ill take the viking beard just not this#also i think gaby and erik are just. inexplicably married????? they never cover that ???? thats just a thing to vaguely acknowledge#they dont even say it there's a book that's credited as 'erik magnus lehnsherr' and 'gabrielle haller lensherr' like ok. what.#they dont even properly tell us why eriks here or like. how erik and charles find the xmen. or why gaby's here vjeALKJEK#LIKE COOL HI GABS. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE she's a mutant now. forgot about that. ???????????????#the weird plot did distract me from. Whatever This Is but now im focusing on it again and im dying#i think what's really killing me is the earrings like oh my god. wow ok. wow...... terrible choice !#if i squint i can imagine the ponytail's gone from his side profile and it's a lil better but ...... jljalKjalJA#anyway i said id read every xmen comic and. regretting some choices but we ball#for now im gonna go wind down ... maybe doodle a bit who's to say ..

I don't care about the weird tumblr ads. At least they don't try to disguise themselves as a regular posts!! I'll take Sword Lady and Pikachu-cosplay man any day over whatever this insidious shit is
#At least the weird tumblr ads accept the fact that they're advertisements and DON'T pretend that they're NOT advertisements#“>>OMG I FOUND IT HERE!<<'' bitch that's an ad. you're an ad. you couldn't have said ''Im getting a cut of the profits!'' any clearer.#tumblr ads#corporate hellscape#capitalist hellscape#tumblr ad fail#tumblr advertising#hellsite (derogatory)#i havent seen anyone else talk about these adsplease god somebody acknowledge them with me i feel like im going crazy#bad taste#tumblr#ALL the fucking popular meme blogs are in it. i dont event follow most of them anymore cuz i was so sick of the ads#i get it; you have a site with a lot of traffic and you wanna see if you can make some passive moolah bc why not. i get it. i really do.#If it were at least clearer that ''hey! this is an ad!!'' then I'd be more forgiving but.#it looks JUST enough like a genuine quirkly little post that people will rb ot without realizing that. it's an ad. they're reblogging an ad#People deserve to at least KNOW they're reblogging an ad before they reblog an ad#so sick of being advertised to secretly. its all over youtube and tiktok and instagram and shit. dont bring that bs to tumblr too come on..#as if thats not bad enough they add a bunch of irrelevant unnecessary tags#so when i follow hashtag ''artsist of tumblr'' i get recommended the top liked post which is: an d for a fucking scam site lamp or some shi#its just... irritating#anya rambles#vent

one weird part of my job is sometimes I get little old ladies with sweet hearts poking through the compost box on the bottom of my cart that tell me I shouldn't be throwing away what I am throwing away. Like yeah, I get it. Food waste sucks! I hate throwing anything away. But everything down there is rotting or bruised or withered or just ugly enough that I know it will sit on the shelf until it is rotting, bruised, and withered. I cannot mark it down, and you will not buy it at full price. "But poor people---!" Poor people deserve food that isn't moldy or bruised or withered or ugly! And afaik our company already donates actually edible food to pantries!
#this has happened a handful of times like yes i get it but please understand what you're actually asking for#call corporate if you are unhappy with our compost going to pig farmers as feed.#or that you'd like for us to implement a markdown system for produce (like we already have for meat/bread/etc)#i cannot do anything here store-side#just a vent dont mind meee#u#and jsut. the number of times i've told customers 'yeah this is still fully edible so if it's in your house looking like this then its fine#'but no on is going to buy it looking like this'#ANYWAY while I'm here if that site is still around that sells 'ugly produce' to reduce food waste it is a complete scam#produce is graded and ugly stuff that is still edible goes to plants that turn it into soups or jellies or various other products.#it doesn't get thrown away for being ugly unless it gets to a store and even then we do still try to sell it#and i purposefully put uglier shit where I know it'll get grabbed by ppl who dgaf.#thank you customers who dgaf!!!!!!!!! you're my favorite#ppl who dig to the bottom when there is new shit on the top: please fuck right off. you didn't even look. you didn't even try.

i think the reason ppl get so uppity about you calling a scam a scam rn is bc they feel so powerless about the situation in i/p that they'll take ANYTHING to feel like they're contributing. they dont want to be the bystanders who have no real sway that they are, they want to be the heroes of the story, and if they dont at least have the scams to rely on for their image, how will everyone know how good of a person they are and praise them for saving the day???????????????
#its all a self serving fantasy so you can larp as a revolutionary. w/o the scams you dont really have any reason to act this way#and to be so passionate and intense bc you cant even fucking do anything. and you know that. and you feel shame about being so intense#when you cant fucking do anything so you LATCH on to whatever you can- like the scams- to make it seem like you're actually doing something#instead of address that shame and live with it and accept it and apologize to people for spreading scams.#you're LITERALLY doing what conservatives do when theyre proven wrong about a conspiracy theory.#you have no real power here. you tried and still you couldnt sway things. people who are doing the real work are THERE.#there are israelis who are protesting on behalf of palestinians who are being SIGNIFICANTLY MORE IMPACTFUL because they're actually#THERE and can actually do things to sway things. you cant. you need to accept that.#this isnt me saying you dont have man power this is me saying you're essentially trying to involve yourself in a conflict that your friend#told you their cousins that you dont know at all are going through.#this couldnt concern you less and also you have no real power here. are you gonna demand your friend give you their cousins numbers#so you can say something to them? even though they dont speak english?#even if you did have a translator that worked super well- you are SO FAR REMOVED from this situation that you input is meaningless.#like when ppl go on reddit to ask if they're the asshole- yeah everyones gonna agree with you bc you're the only perspective#being share.d you're not showing the other side where other ppl call YOU unreasonable. no! so it doesnt rly matter if you think you know#whats right- your friend JUST told you about this with minor details and even a couple days of explaining still would never give you the#full picture enough to have any actually valuable input.#you AT LEAST have to be part of the family in some capacity.......................... *looks intensely at the complexion of all the#'antizionist not antisemitic' ppl* pinky.......

No shade, but if this doesn't trigger 'scam' alarm bells in your mind, multiple times, then you need to update your internet safety skills
(I blocked them after that. If I am wrong I'd rather risk one upset commissioner vs getting scammed out of my time and skills as an artist)
#there are MANY red flags here#see if you can count them all#digital art#scam#scammers#commissions#heartsprout#new tag for new stuff#art#internet safety#this might catch a person new to selling commissions out#anhd i geninely am throwing no shade at people who do get scammed#it happens to the best of us#but pls look into what modern scams look like#especially in dms on sites like instagram etc#and all the ways you can get scammed on PAYPAL too#not just random money apps/sites#it happens so often pls protec yourself#i've been an online artist for over a decade#and i grew up when we were told not to share our personal info with strangers online#i regard all monetary interactions online like this as scams until proven otherwise#i gird my loins#be polite#be firm#dont be afraid to say no and walk away#and truss me- thats 1.2k NZD#and i an a broke disabled artist#that is a LOT of money for me to turn down#but it just doesnt pass the smell test so nope

nothing worse than a YouTube video that's kind of wrong about a subject you know about
#mine.#it was about dropshipping crochet scams on tiktok#and like looking at the store front and then all of the identical items on temu. the dropshipping scam thing is a reasonable assumption#but the rest of the youtuber's evidence is so ???#“they have a bunch of different items in different styles” yeah theyre. a crochet business#and i genuinely dont know what the hell a “crochet style” is because most of the items were amigurumi and like. flowers#the steps to make a cutesy plush are the same as the ones to make a realistic plush. someone selling both isnt suspicious#“look at all these items! theres no way they could make all these that quickly!”#once again. they are a crochet business#someone making a bunch of stock and then filming their haul (? cant think of a better word) isnt suspicious#and most of it was like. pretty small stuff too#like not to sound mean but sometimes people are Better At A Craft than you#making a cherry keychain probably wouldnt even take me an hour and i dont claim to be an expert#im sorrrry to be a hater and the people doing this suck buuut#if you dont know much about crochet and dont run crochet booths or interact with crochet communities than maaaybe#you dont have enough knowledge to make a video about this

a fellow english major, really happy to see someone who's proud of their degree <3
you know that "no love, no matter how brief, is wasted" line? i think the same applies for knowledge too - no matter how useless it may seem, knowledge acquired is never in vain.
#honestly like. idk what your age is but when i was attending uni i kept getting told that i shouldve gone for IT. because the future#- and the money - is there.#now look at the IT companies. the whole thing is crumbling#not to mention the arrogance. that IT degree didnt make you immune to the same old scam tactics did it. how are your nfts doing btw#honestly i never really expected it myself that a humanities degree would prove useful in a daily life type of way#like. sure i knew it wasnt useless but still. its entirely different to experience it in real time yknow#and the whole new wave ''it isnt that deep'' trend is honestly pretty dangerous bc there usually IS something deeper.#a narrative an agenda a propaganda etc.... or simply just capitalist greed#so its needed to read between the lines and see what the point/intention really is#- and thats what literary and other art analysis is making you do! it makes you stop and think#this is all not even mentioning all the political historical and cultural stuff we learned about all the anglo-saxon countries#which all prove to be pretty useful in light of recent events......#so yeah. anyway. dont listen to all those who say its useless (and theres a lot of those even among the ones who chose this major too)#its clearly not. but even if it were it wouldnt matter ehat they think#(i do wish tho that i couldve attended it already on the right meds bc i feel like i forgot A Lot bc of my mental state at the time#but oh well. what can you do)#thank you for the ask it was really nice of you 💞💞💞#ask#anon

if an artist says their turnaround time is usually a week and that they should be done with your specific commission by the end of the week, then goes nearly three weeks without saying something, is it OK to ask them for an update on your commission? I'm a bit torn on whether I should wait a whole month
#as someone who takes comms myself if i were me i would have sent an update after being unable to finish it within my turnaround time#just to be like hey heres what ive got so far sorry that this isnt the turnaround time i said it would be in my comms listing#but also im NOT them so 🤷 idk. literally anything could have happened and maybe they cant even use their phone right now#i dont wanna send them an email (even the very politely worded one ive been drafting) bc i dont want to be rude like at all#but also this person didnt get back to me for over a month when i first reached out to commission them so#im starting to see that for the red flag it was#and not like. a sign that they just have so many commissions to do. because it doesnt take long to send an email that says#'sorry im a bit too busy with other comms right now to take yours/work on yours'#i wouldnt have been mad. i would have either waited to comm them or taken my business elsewhere#i also wanna be clear i dont mind long turnarund times ive waited literal months for a comm with no complaints#its just the fact that they promised to finished it (completely unprompted) and then havent... said ANYTHING for WEEKS that seems sus to me#its crossed my mind i may have been scammed since they havent shown me anything more than a sketch#edit: part of the im really regretting comming them is because ive already waited a month to even like finish the TAKING my comm process#since they randomly didnt email me back for weeks right as we were finalizing the details#like i waited a LONG time to even be like 'are you still taking my comm?' bc in my head i was like#'they must have other comms that they havent mentioned (totally valid btw) if i wait the queue will be clear'#and then... yea idk i just dont think that was the case if their turnaround time is actually a week#which is a really short turnaround time anyway imo theyre making it too hard on themself#(funnily enough i have the same turnaround time which is why i know it can be challenging to do it in a week but its also completely doable)#anyway back to the fact i probably got scammed. their 'sketch' though i didnt wamna say it looked VERY much like#they just traced my concept sketch#which 😰

it's just really demoralizing to do literally everything right but then get turned down for a factor that is fixable in literally like two days of training
#personal post#I've done scheduling software! I've done like four totally different kinds of customer service!#i have varied tech experience and a degree in the field the clinic is in. etc etc etc#literally the only thing i dont have is the job title on my resume#what the hell am i supposed to do about that if i cant get hired#(i did get hired to a chiropractor and i guess im going to take it but like .... chiropractor? really?#i feel like that's not even a good thing for my resume since I'm trying to apply for medical receptionist roles.#like it's gotta look like bad judgement that i dont know chiropractors are a scam ykno)#i am applying to other shit too tbc but that's just my preferred job i think#feeling like I'm doing something at least vaguely useful is a big qol for me

a thing thats really funny about googling universities is you look up ‘good [area of study] university programs’ and it just gives you like. the top rated universities in general.
#like aye im sure uoft and mcgill and ubc are at the top of ur list no matter what program u put in#but just because theyre the most hoity toity of all the schools here doesnt mean each and every of their programs are the best. tbh#like actually i do think trent or dalhousie or ubc have for example good environment programs.#i dont however immediately think of uoft or mcgill for that.#not that i take much advice from googling these sorts of things because post secondary (in north america esp)#is REALLY a scam and all corporate controlled etc#not to mention that most post secondaries… are actually the same#you can get just as good of an education at for example brock uni as at uoft. but one has more prestige#like mostly it doesnt matter. tho re: my previous tags yes there ARE some better schools for certain things#im not taking art at western university when i could go to ocad or nscad!!#anyways i like looking these things up just to see what schools offer stuff im into. idc about ratings

speaking of horrors theres something happening and i dont know what it is but its pissing me off
#wind howls#i think a lot of stress from still not having a job for the summer is getting to me#i just dont know what to do.#my sisters boyfriend said to look on facebook for job offers and when i did 99.9% of them were definitely fake and scams.#i appreciate the tip but i know a bit better.... cmon man....#i guess The Rage has been getting to me a bit as well. i know thats likely the source of last nights partly trauma nightmare i had.#i sent in another application today and im worried bc its passing though an employment agency which. my last tutor said 2 avoid#but girl. im gettinf a bit desperate here. i already had a job around this time last year#and my options are limited because my mobility is limited. cant stand for long and cant drive.#and i dont have many options near my house bc its all fucking. retail jobs that get ableist real fast if you cant stand in place for long#like. from what ive heard standing up in the same spot for 8 hours is already hard for able bodied people. how am i meant 2 survive.#the few times i did that i came home crying from the pain and frankly speaking im desperate but im not THAT Desperate.#long story short. please pray that i find fucking SOMETHING this week lest i explode and start crying
