me and the gang when we pull up

pics r from the mobil game they had???? i found them on facebook

[mangocheesecakes]

how many of these scams are the same person? i know the paypal names leila rajab and remmy cheptau and tasneem r’m رجابو are the same person, and now hamdi ahmed is posting the exact same script as they do, so in my mind that's one person behind those four..... and Nada,r Ab'r Hus'sein and raobh tingo are the same person, and nchagwa mwita now goes by annah musa. are there other names that are really just one person?

your guess is as good as mine anon.

Before the genocide in Palestine started, some of the kind of scams we would find here were:

pet donation scams (stealing dog and cat pics from facebook)

cancer and diabetes donation scams (usually pretending to be Black American or African)

homeless/persecuted gay or trans person scam

the occasional impoverished or sick Filipino scam

Since this genocide started, most of these have disappeared, most notable being the pet scammer. The insulin scam has merged with the fake Palestinian scam. There's still one or two of the fake African/African American cancer patient, as you may have noted when you tracked down these urls (the one that always has the Black Lives Matter title, as an example).

One conclusion I can make is that there's a scam ring, and that most if not all of these accounts are being handled by a group of people.

Laura Deramas, we know, has been repeatedly implicated in a number of scams before these fake Palestinian accounts started, but I genuinely believe she is still here also trying her hand at pretending to be Palestinian (the Laura Mae Noro and most recently the Maureen Jane Aloot scams I believe are definitely hers). Whether she is part of a larger scam ring along with the other fake Palestinian scams or if she is in a separate group along with her friends, I can only guess.

But it's very good that you are able to take note of which scam paypals are being used together, anon! Sadly there's been a lot of them for so long that I just gave up trying to keep track which type of scam is using which paypal name, the only thing that I can do is take note of the name and mark it as a scam so that they'll be easily caught once they are reused.

@kyra45 may have a better record and a better memory of these scam paypals and actually most of the time I just rely on their masterlists and posts when I come upon a potential scam account that I haven't seen before.

Hi Suina, do you want an extravagant tea that'll make you say "ooh.. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂" and savor it? If yes im here to serve you that Tea

The 🍵 contains :

Was about to say that the "good" in the morning disappeared bc someone said my face looked like a mf butt🤡 and im here to expose that bitchass mf in here

THAT person was my friend's cousin, but let me tell you, i found their profile in Facebook(Facebook is still used by teenagers and other ppl in our country) faster than sonic and i didn't even wait my friend to be online and ask what's the name of their cousin bc i already found their acc in my friend's friendlist (fb is in my side mfs😋). THEN i found out that the person who said i looked like a butt and literally has less knowledge than me🤓, let me tell you why:

1. Their pfp is literally a mf bitchass ai generated sakura from naruto and has SEVERAL anime ai generated pfp in their acc (that's the most CRINGIEST shit i saw today)

2. THEY CANT PROPERLY SAVE PICS IN FACEBOOK AND CANT EVEN SCREENSHOT THINGS PROPERLY LIKE WTF IS THAT BG IN UR ACC IT ISNT EVEN CROPPED PROPERLY (they had the most cringiest bg in their acc in all of mankind I've seen)

3. I have better academic grades than them🤓 cuz shut tf up man, the only good grade you have is 98 in history(ap) and your other subject's grade r literally so bad, like I HAVE MORE LINE OF 9 THAN YOU AND BARELY LINE OF 8, YOU HAVE SO MANY LINE OF 8 SO GET YOUR ASS OFF YOUR PHONE AND GO LEARN MORE THINGS IN SCHOOL(line of 9 is considered good in our country's grading system)

4. They hate Pinterest and has a shitty ass wallpaper 🤡, tf man even Pinterest? Rlly? LIKE BRO YOU HAVE A WALLPAPER THAT'S LIKE FILLED WITH GLITTERS( i get you got it off from google) ATLEAST HAVE A GOOD WALLPAPER. YOU FCKING HATE PINTEREST BUT YOU HAVR A SHITTY WALLPAPER, WTF MAN R U TROLLING ME R U ALLERGIC TO PINTEREST OR WHAT😭??? LIKE BRO, I HAVE A BETTER WALLPAPER THAN YOU THAT'S FROM PINTEREST.

in middle/highschool every1 irl was so mean to me like i was just the go-to Target for a lot of ppl so everyone wld always act like literally anything i did on facebook was so weird and offputting even tho i was legit so like...normal on there?? but idk any type of self expression i indulged in to the slightest degree wld make ppl want to bully me lol. and for a while it got me down so much until grade 12 i started making tumblr friends n back then we wld all add each other on fb. so suddenly all these like random hipsters from The Usa were commenting on my pics and the ppl at my school like. Could not wrap their head around it like the concept of internet friends was still a rly outlandish thing in this small town. but after a few months i started to notice ppl treated me completely different irl like they were almost acting impressed i was able to transcend their onslaught of bullshit so now they wanted me..all these ppl from my school who had previously treated me like DIRT wld comment on my facebook posts trying to be seen i was feeling like *south park voice* damn i hate you guys sfm for real :/ but tumblr ppl def saved my life at the time cus my irl situation was rly makeing me want to end it all w the constant bullying on top of OTHER stuff... fuck like having facebook back then was so insanely stressful to me i feel so bad for kids w r like i was dealing w it now that social media usage been amplified to such a massive extent

[littlequeenies]

In that 1989 Demri pic with Layne and friends on the lake, are there other Alice in Chains members there? Are Jerry or Mike in the photo? I think Fabiola is there and Krisha (Jerry's girlfriend at the time) said she was there. I think I don't see Sean, but I wonder if the lad next to Layne, or the one in front of Dem (holding the bongo) is Jerry. Thank you.

Hi there!

So we are not very familiar with the Alice in Chains members (beside Layne) so we're going to reply as best as we can.

This is the photo (posted on facebook by Fabiola long time ago):

(source)

Krisha Augerot, who was dating Jerry on and off, she said: "I was dating Jerry off and on, and hanging out with Demri. We’d all go to the beach every day during that summer at Magnuson Park ... It was a very free, loving time. In the liner notes [of Above], he said something about, ‘I’ll always remember that summer’... That really fresh, youthful time that we all had before it was all about drugs. He mentioned a few names in there – I think he mentions my name, Demri, and another girl named Fabiola, ... I know that meant a lot to him – that whole time period."

And Fabiola said: "Remembering that summer of ‘89 when we were young and innocent, and free. Layne, Demri and I walking through the long grasses on the trails of Magnuson Park, heading to meet up with El Steiner, Freedom James, Krisha, Jerry, Betzold, Dmitri and others. Demri carrying her conga drum with a scarf wrapped around it, me a bottle and a stick. Layne’s hair half in dreads and curls with his goatee braided and one of my beads dangling on the end of it. He’s wearing ripped up jean shorts and Dem and I in our bikinis. His and Demri’s chests bare and golden from the sun, sparkles in our eyes and smiles, lots of smiles. We were going to worship, have a drum circle with our friends on the shores of Lake Washington and swim in it’s waters on a hot summer day"

(Thank you to Memories of Demri for the quotes, full memories on her insta or our original post)

So according to both women, Jerry was there, but there are also many other names on the list as Fabiola says...

These are Krisha (left, unknown date) and Fabiola (right, 1993) with Demri:

I honestly cannot see them on the photo. I tought Fabiola was the one in red in the bottom, but she says she was wearing a bikini...

And this is Alice in Chains in 1989 (source) (L-R Sean Kinney, Mike Starr, Layne and Jerry), and Jerry in 1993 with sunglasses and a ponytail (source)

So yeah, the guy next to Layne with the sunglasses might could be Jerry but somehow we don't know... Jerry said he and Layne had matching tattoos because they had a very strong bond (he took care of the cat Sadie when Layne passed away) but I don't know when they got them...

According to both Krisha and Fabiola they did this the whole summer, so maybe that day they weren't there (the photo was taken by Anna Hrnjak) but maybe Jerry and even the other AIC members were there on another occasion.

As said, we are not very familiar with AIC, but there are many tumblr blogs here that are, so hopefully someone can help with that!

I know we have some photos of Demri with the whole band or with Sean, but it would be great to see her hanging with the other band members!

[desidesidesi]

The first liveblogging of the excitement of The Box TM was getting out of control so I'm making a new post and sharing a new story.

So! My mother and her friends live in a poor backwater of Mississippi. Like we visited during Thanksgiving and the "City Square" which is the heart of the city was either cute, kitschy gift stores or buildings that are literal husks with caved in rooves. So they are permanently B O R E D and have picked up the art......... Of Dumpster Diving in the extremely rich college town north of them (not naming it cuz I don't wanna dox my mom or ruin their weird side hussle. @banahbanah you know where I'm talking about)

Apparently they heard tale that all the rich college kids and stores just throw out perfectly good furniture, clothing, anything under the sun at the end of the semester. Sure enough she's told me about a giant 65in TV that was "broken" (a 50$ repair got it working again) basically a new wardrobe, perfectly good food (Star Bucks throws away so much shit), Coach Bags, and knick-knacks galore!

This is all relevant because half of the stuff in The Box are goodies from one of her outings!

First pic!

In this picture (Professor Juniper for Scale) we have a Bento Box, a Tea Cup (which she worried would break but thankfully did not), and two different gift sets of tea (both thrown out well before their expi date) all gotten from the HomeGoods Dumpster in said rich college town.

Now, I know what you're thinking: Desi. Isn't this a little privileged and problematic that a bunch of Southern White Women can go around dumpster diving and basically not get in trouble with the police? And I say... Like, duh? But they kinda do a Robin Hood approach to their little operation and share with everyone in their friend group anything and everything they find! They're basically using their privilege to stick it to corporate America and even MORE privileged white people!

Also in this pictures are crystals from an old chandelier in my childhood room. Mom was replacing it and asked if I wanted it? I'm renting, I don't have any place to put it lol so I just said "Can I have the crystals to make Sun Catchers with?" She didn't quite get it, but she sent them anyway so yay!

And of course, my delicious Milex (powdered milk for those that don't know what the hell I'm talking about) 💖💖💖 I know I'm a weirdo for basically using it as a cereal additive by making things extra milk, but I fucking love it and it tastes of childhood. 💖 We have to get friends to "import" it from Honduras cuz the company that makes it doesn't sell online anywhere??? It's fucking wild how hard it is to find this stuff!!! Gotta ration better this time. I literally used the last bag she got me in a few weeks 😅

Also? Cute cows on the packaging!

And finally! The Purse-My-Aunt-Saw-And-Thought-I-Would-Appreciate-It-Best!

Look at this thing! It was "Made in Nepal" with "environmentally friendly products" and is bigger than my damn torso??? I can fit my full-sized sketch book in this dang thing lol! It's very... Hippy dippy lol. I definitely see why she got it for me 🤣 Will have to wear it around Colorado and see if I get any Crunchy Moms lusting after it.

BUT YES. I did an unboxing on Facebook Messenger with my mom and dad and it was silly fun. Hope this random hobby my mom has taken up nets me more random bullshit lol.

okay so in terms of like “peak patriarchy” tbh it’s hard to pick one moment. i grew up in a pretty patriarchal society & country. i was already pretty sick of it from a young age bc i was basically getting called a whore, being harassed, & getting pressured by ppl within my society (luckily not my family) over me not wearing the hijab. when i was in my early teens, i faced rape & most ppl i had opened up to (most being close friends) either said it was my fault or called me a liar or basically minimised what my rapist did like it’s not a big deal to rape someone. again, was called a whore & harassed for that. then i had this one guy as a remaining friend & lucky me, happens to be a guy who had a crush on me for 4 years at this point & was persistent despite repeated rejection. eventually i felt bad and powerless bc rejecting him didn’t mean anything to him, he was arguing im “still his girlfriend” (when i said im not with him & do not want to be) and he said maybe to ME we rnt together but to him we r. anyways after putting up with that for a while, i ended it for the 50th time & he said “is it bc ur a lesbian” and i said yes. 6 months later he sends me flowers to my place in bahrain (his brother delivers it to me) & i was like wtf. so i had to end it again. and again. by that point i was pretty fed up honestly but eventually i got him to leave me alone bc he said like “stay pls maybe i can change your mind ;(“ and i said he cannot and then said if my mind changes ill hit him up. i already knew my mind wouldn’t be changed lol bc i tried not to be a lesbian for long enough to know it’s just not possible. but at least that somehow convinced him to leave me alone. but then when i was done w that situation & opened up about being a lesbian online, i got repeatedly hassled on whether id date a trans woman etc & about penises. i was a tra and was like no unm id totally date a trans woman but not with a penis bc im penis-repulsed. and ofc then i got hassled w messages like “isnt that terfy / transphobic” so at this point im like what the fuck. here’s where i started to peak. anyways like a year or two later i have my first gf right and she’s a massive TRA. im still leaning towards the TRA side but talking vocally about how sex exists & so does sex-based oppression & that lesbians are allowed not to like penis. anyways my then-gf pressures me into an open relationship & says it’s bc my body is like “too perfect” & it makes her insecure and she hates her body etc. she says that she was told that polyamory can help solve her body image issues & was convincing me of how it’d work. i was skeptical and not for having an open relationship but like how can u say no to someone u love telling u that ur the reason for their insecurities & that u can help them simply by letting them fuck other ppl??? so i was like okay fine. immediately my ex dates like 3 other ppl at once, 1 of them being a trans woman. i was against this n was like how’s this meant to help w ur body image issues … this person literally has a penis and a completely body from u… n my ex was tryna convince me that it does help somehow. anyways the trans woman wants desperately for us to become a throuple. writin detailed fantasies about me to my then-gf, made a Facebook profile set in bahrain with an arabic name with a hentai profile pic, etc. eventually my ex says “oh but i don’t think she’d be into that, she’s penis repulsed” and the tw goes all :( aw what a shame :( i hope she gets help for this :( and my ex agrees. my ex then tells me about this non-chalantly. im like erm ok… then a week later i text my ex and i say that the whole thing rly upset me. they both then proceed to gaslight me that im crazy & it’s not like that & im such a misandrist & i should be able to love trans women bc they’re women and what’s in their pants doesn’t matter. my ex switches between telling me that i should undergo some genital “exposure therapy” and telling me such therapies aren’t useful so it’s not like they want me to go there. i stand down eventually. probs peak trans there

CLASSIC REVIEW

(Originally From Halloween 2022)

I re-watched American Mary (2012)

Used a pic from this film as my Facebook banner and a lot of people didn't know what it was from.

A young surgery student begins making extra money in the underground Body modification world, before exacting revenge on her r*pist.

In a movie full of surgery and torture, the most upsetting scene is a r*pe scene. If that's too much for you, you can't handle this movie, so be warned.

"American Mary" is a movie that definitely makes me uncomfortable. Underground Surgical body mods and body horror/torture surgery are some unsettling things, but that's what a good horror movie should be...unsettling.

The film is Directed by the Soska Sisters, who are good technical directors, as well as script writers. The film has a good pace and looks impressive throughout. (I haven't seen their other work, so I'm only judging from this film.)

Katherine Isabelle plays the part of Mary really well, switching from mildly naive student to cold underground surgeon in a believable fashion. She's menacing, sympathetic and sexy. Add some bangs and heels and you have an instant horror icon you want to root for. Isabelle is a scream queen from my generation that I love. From "Ginger Snaps" to "Freddy Vs. Jason" to "American Mary" she not only brings beauty, but some talent to back it up.

Is it too much to say this is a female empowerment movie? Maybe, but I'm gonna go that far. You're on Mary's side even when she grows cold, because you understand why she has grown that cold. And, despite being bothered by the revenge she gets, you can't help but agree with it. She was an innocent, abused and discarded. She isn't the villainous Dr. Frankenstein searching to play God. She is the Monster, created by evil men through their cruelty.

do you have any tips about getting PR in canada, i'm trying to figure this out with my gf who lives in america (also idv edaters. unfortunately)

WE WERE NOT IDV EDATERS SCREAMMMMM you should have just kicked sand in my eyes. i begged him to play idv with me he wouldnt cos he was scared. anyway.

unfortunately my tips are very limited as ive been 'done' with the bullshit for over a year now. and like immigration lawyers literally get paid thousands cause its so complicated :( like not in a 'pay me' way but like its an insane feat to pull off without professional help. that and pr shit is changing all the time so im sure a lot of what i experienced is outdated

i spent like 1.5 years no exaggeration in the pr RESEARCH mines (mostly on r/immigrationcanada) and honestly i still felt like i was learning new shit right up until the day i submitted my application. and then more and more after i had submitted it. its really really hard unfortunately. i really advise asking/searching for questions on that subreddit whenever possible, there are a lot of people who can help when youre unsure.

if it wasnt clear you have to be married to apply for the spousal sponsorship, which as far as I understand is pretty much how most american to ca prships happen. if you (when i say you i mean your american girl bc thats the perspective im coming from) happen to have a skilled job (the canadian gov website has a key to determine if your job classifies as skilled) then I believe there is another route, but I wasn't eligible so idk shit about that. dont bother looking into whether you qualify as common law or conjugal or whatever bc you very very likely dont meet their standards. i got married in the states a week before crossing the border, your marriage certificate would be valid in canada

off the bat i would say, unless you know for sure your living situation would 100% COMPLETELY PROVIDE FOR YOU for 6 months to a year, then you should probably apply for an OUTLAND spousal sponsorship. if you move in together in canada and apply for INLAND spousal sponsorship then you cannot work period, there is no legal way for you to make any cent of income. you will not be eligible for provincial healthcare, so i recommend getting long term travel insurance (i rec geoblue). the border is a whole other ordeal if you don't have any status in canada, you can't look like you're moving (i.e no moving boxes no tons of luggage) you can't look like you're eloping or staying for more than a couple months and even if you do everything right they still may suspect you and deny you entry. i did inland and it was really really difficult and at times scary for these reasons, i did not exactly do some things by the book in order to get by *WINKKK*. if you can stand to get married and then part for upwards of a year then i would really really suggest the outland route. unless youll be provided for then GOOD FOR YOU *shaking fist* random but americans also have to continue filing us taxes even if they have moved out of country. so remember that.

moreso tips umm DOCUMENT EVERYTHINGGG YOU DO TOGETHER this is my biggest piece of advice. you have to prove your relationship is legit, here is a list of stuff i included in my application:

receipts/the route we took for our honeymoon

screenshots of support from relatives, like facebook or other social media posts acknowledging your relationship

we got our wills done to make each other the sole benefactor

receipts and pictures of gifts weve gotten each other

photos of both of you with friends and family is 100% required

proof of past visits to each other

receipts and pics for past dates/outings/events

letters of support from family/friends (i got these notarized)

lots of stuff from online chat logs/social media. pictures of chats, phone calls, video calls from across years. i think i included at least one of each from every month since we got together. chats should be relevant to relationship stuff like discussing moving in, getting married, relatives, etc.

a letter detailing our relationship with exact dates, locations, etc. like when we met, when we started dating, when we visited, how we got engaged, etc. you have to make a case for yourself as if you were in court.

if youre researching stuff there is honestly not a lot of resources specifically for edaters! so many people like have like children together in another country or have been established there as a married couples for years so they have a ton of foundation to work off of. canada doesnt just want to see that youre in love they want to see the work that goes into that, like shared leases and joint bank accounts and years of financial support and children etc etc. it sucks but you have to justify it in other ways when youre (im assuming) young and childless and unmarried until recently. you can get some of those things once you move in together but idk, i was rather safe than sorry an scrounged up all the 'soft' evidence i could right up until i submitted it.

i think thats about it i wish i could help more lol. its definitely one of the hardest things ive had to do like emotionally financially temporally effortfully lmfao. good luck?!

Poly RomCom Moments: The Guy From Reddit

I frequent r/polyamory because I'm new and also just like reading people's posts. Once, someone asked where to meet other poly people. One guy had mentioned he just moved to Chicago and he went to the local cocktails and had a great time. I replied that I live in Chicago too and he messaged me to let me know where to find the group.

We exchanged pics so that we'd know who to look for at future events. We also chatted a bit as well. Once I was added to the Facebook group, I recognized the photo when he had commented on a post. I decided to add him because why not? I need more friends.

Truth be told, he is not my type at all. Yeah, he's short, but he's very much a board game/D&D/ren faire kind of guy. He fences, FFS. I got that vibe from his photo alone, so I knew this wasn't going to be a romantic connection. Plus he's 11 years younger than me.

We finally met IRL a few months later. He came into cocktails, sat down across from me, looked at me and said, "Are you my Reddit friend?"

The whole night he was casually flirting with me. He kept asking me about my piercings and was telling me how he just got his ears pierced and stuff like that. It didn't occur to me at first that he was flirting, but eventually it clicked.

The next morning, he messages me on Facebook.

He is fully aware that I'm 11 years older than him. I did tell him he was too young for me. I didn't want to tell him I wasn't attracted to him and we probably didn't have much in common other than that we're both poly.

A few weeks later, I ran into him again. This time, I caught him doing the same thing he did to me with the piercings to Lady #1 and her tattoos. As he decided to move to a different table, he asked her what the easiest way to keep in touch with her was. She said text and they exchanged phone numbers.

At the end of the night, she was leaving with her partner and said goodbye to me (and also that we'd talk soon). I told her, "[Reddit Guy] is probably going to ask you out tomorrow. He did the exact same sort of flirting with me last time as he was with you tonight. He's a baby, though. He's like 11 years younger than me."

"Wait, how old is he?"

"[age that is only 6 years younger than her]. I mean, I was definitely flattered because he knows how old I am, but he's a baby."

She laughed. I'm not sure if he asked her out the next day, but I'm sure she mention it at some point if he did.

[textingaboutprometheus]

I think everything R puts on IG gets automatically posted to facebook. There is some automation going on. Not sure how that works, someone else might know though.

I noticed that a while back. When pics he edited or deleted on IG were still on facebook with the original caption or just there at all. Like the last pic with L from the Oscars.

I wonder if he knows that
