y'all. if you're selling on lacemarket and you can't ship an item in the time window you stated, please TELL THE BUYER. bad/slow communication is THE number one reason people leave negative feedback.

they apologized and said they'd had trouble getting to the post office, and swore they'd ship the dress the next day. i got a notice from paypal for the label. great!

...it's been sitting in the same unchanged status ever since. so obviously i'm not getting the dress in time for the event.

so i reached out like "uh hey did you get my money," since when you shell out $120 to a total stranger, you get nervous if you don't hear from them. i was prepared to have some grace because holidays make everything hectic for people, so i was nice about it.

o heck that's a good idea, i'd been wondering what i was going to use since half the apps i had been using decided to go all in on the slop machines. this is really cute!

coordinate details:
headdress + jsk + OTKs - metamorphose temps de fille (antique bouquet my beloved. print of all time)
shoes: antaina
accessories: BTSSB, enchantlic enchantilly, forest girl clothing, thrifted

the number of times i was blocked in xiv fandom by people over my ship was greater than zero and i remain baffled to this day like wdym??

(15 is not fucking "barely legal" and anyone who seriously thinks that is not a whole fetus needs the lord)

congratulations to the libertarian party for finally having one of their planks mainstreamed /s

she eviscerated him lmao. called him (paraphrasing) a hollow void of a person and he got so mad he spent the rest of the day responding to random engagement accounts about books he's supposedly read, etc trying to prove that she's wrong

touching grass is not enough for these people they need a god damn rainforest (please don't come to mine tysm)

atp i avoid 90 percent of most fandom interactions anymore and try to stick to folks i like and trust. between unhinged tiktok racists lynching wyll in their fanart and using discourse as an excuse, and the Proship Police (TM) saying anyone who likes AA is an abuser? idk man i'm fuckin Tired

anyway this is why billionaires shouldn't exist: when middle aged men have midlife crises over the realization of their impending mortality they buy sports cars and bang their secretaries.

when it happens to the eight guys who own everything, they crash out and try to destroy humanity itself.

he has spent his entire career, if you can call it that, failing upwards due to an accident of birth. he is devoid of any remotely compelling or likeable quality, and the most embarrassing part is that he did it all to himself. there's no reason he had to end up this way.

this man's avarice is boundless precisely because he craves the one thing that all his vast wealth can never buy. the absurdity of it is that it lies within his reach, but obtaining it would demand that he undergo a total rejection of his current self, and he won't do that.

his ego won't allow it.

this man spends every waking second of his life rattling the bars of his own prison because fundamentally, he craves an escape hatch. he is disgusted by himself.

but that's the thing: you can't outrun yourself forever. countless better people than elon musk have tried and failed.

legit would not be surprised if it turns out he embezzled from the slush fund so there's nothing TO pay out and he's just stalling
