AMC Closed??

AMC Closed??

Supposedly it’s permanently closed from a Google search but it’s an AI one so I’m not so sure about how accurate it is? I have amc a list so this is a HUGE bummer bc it means I’ll have to switch to regal unlimited if this is the case.

If it’s being renovated that would be great and I hope that’s the case 😭 I’m so bummed out about this it’s the closest one besides the one in Arcadia.

I hate volunteer culture at conventions

With the rise of convention popularity over the last 5-10 years there has also been a rise of volunteer registration needed to help run conventions.

And I HATE it, I don’t hate those volunteering but the culture that surrounds it.

These companies exploit people under the guise of volunteering to not pay them.

Now ofc there’s some benefit to it, meeting guests and working with them, networking and getting free entry to the con. But after a while of doing this these companies still refuse to pay people.

This is also why some cons are run so terribly they don’t have an actual staff, and half the time staff isn’t even paid they’re also volunteers just under the guise of “staff” to make them feel like they have a higher position and to also gas light them into thinking they can eventually get a paid positions.

They can’t.

Literally only leads get paid and it’s usually like 5 people out of 30-45 “staff”. It irritates me because I KNOW how much money these cons bring in and it’s absolutely disgusting to me how they take advantage of people.

To a point it is the volunteers fault to keep doing this when they’re not getting paid.

But you can’t run a con without paying people it dosnt end well because they don’t have a reason to lock in, I’ve seen it time and time again.

I’m not saying pay people 500 dollars a day I’m saying pay them a minimum of $150-200 I know damn well these cons can afford it.

You need to start paying people to get qualified people at the very least you need a core 10-12 people getting paid who actually know wtf they’re doing so that they can lead the other volunteers and staff volunteers.

Free parking near the convention center

Wanted to know if there’s free street parking near the Anaheim convention center I don’t mind walking if it’s a few blocks away but if anyone could highlight some streets for me that would be great.

I was told I could park in this area for free on bluebell and June with the photo attached. Pls let me know if things have changed thanks!

Nostalgia Con SUCKS

This con circuit has one thing going for it and it’s the amount of guests they bring, it’s usually an insane amount and they usually have a solid line up.

But there’s nothing to do besides that. Like that’s it?? I’ve been to the Anaheim ones and it’s happening again. But genuinely it’s 20% vendors and 80% talent and the attendance is always so small for what it should be.

And that’s because this con has no activities. We’re in a state with the economy where people now go to conventions so just hangout and take photos. There’s no arcade, maid cafe of any kind, TCG tournaments, competitions, cosplay events, photo events etc. idk how they’re getting by because cons aren’t just go see celebrities and leave it’s see one or two and hang out.

This con dosnt do that also they staff so ass because it’s all volunteers like last year majority of them don’t know what to do because (from what they told me) they show up like 30 mins before and get minimal training and that’s it like what😭 how are you having unpaid people work with CELEBRITIES ??? Am I crazy?? I get volunteers helping out BUT ASSISTING??? Nah that’s just crazy

Man idk it’s just such a terribly run con and they cancel guests last min and there’s nothing to do after the first hour or two plus the space is one hall of the Anaheim convention center.

I think what bothers me the most is just the potential this con has but they don’t market or have activities so it sucks 😬

Run At The Cup Might Be The Greatest Fan Fic I’ve Ever Read?

As the title says, if not the greatest defiantly one of. This fanfic was so wow I don’t even have the words for it

I’ve never read such a well crafted story formatted the way it was, like a tv show or disc drives? It was so captivating and incredible to read. I’m in such awe of it I can’t stop thinking about it.

Every character was so well done and it was such an expansive story that brought in the entire league universe.

Also it’s literally heated rivalry before heated rivalry existed (show) I wonder if the author ever read the book and took inspo lol.

But damn what a reads

The Tide Will Shift

Within the next 1-2 years I definitely see CGC making the jump and finally coming close to closing the gap with PSA.

CGC made a smart choice creating their pristine 10, it finally allowed for a version of their card to sell at a PSA 10 price.

From what I’ve heard from people at CGC, they’re planning on using a main facilitator to be at every card show on the west coast since they’re based out In Florida and they seem to be cutting down on expenses as well.

I feel like CGC hasn’t been as present but if they start facilitating at every card show it’ll allow even more access to their name and product.

Not to mention their retail price to grade at economy is $20 and every tier after that maxs out at $100…unlike PSA with their million fees and over charges along with their scandals…

Front Row Card Show CGC?-pasadena

I’m curious to know if people grade and collect CGC at these sorts of shows I know that PSA will be there, and I know most collectors prefer PSA than CGC although it is second to PSA.

Do you think they’ll get any traffic there? I might bring some bulk but not sure if I should go with CGC than PSA, bc CGC has a better turn around time and aren’t in as much hot water.

Curious to know what people think CGC will perform there.

Epic isn’t the odyssey…

“There’s similarities between the two” THEYRE BOTH BASED OFF A 1000 YEAR OLD EPIC TALE 😭😭😭

I swear I wish I took a screen shot, someone on tik tok said “it bothers me that they released this movie (the odyssey) right after the success of epic, it feels like they’re trying to succeed off of Jorge” I couldn’t help but cackle.

Epic didn’t start this revolution of Greek mythology. It helped main stream it and boost it to younger audiences but it’s literally based off of the oldest epic tale in history bro😭✌️ like what are we talking about rn

Went out for lunch today around 12/1 pm for sushi with a friend.

I live in California so everyone makes $16.90 including servers/restaurant staff.

Service was not good at all in my opinion.

We got seated and waited 15 minutes before a waiter came up to us (ayce sushi) so you just fill out a form they take it that’s it.

Sushi took 25 mins to come out and we didn’t see our waiter for another 30 mins even though we had been ready to order again and I kept looking around what should’ve been a 1-1.5 hour lunch became almost 3 because we could never find our server 😭😭

It wasn’t that busy I’d say maybe 10-15 people in the restaurant with other waiters around.

My water was never filled up. They got our order wrong twice. Everyone was chill but to me the service was not good so I left no tip…

My friend was like you’re not gonna leave a tip and I said no I’m not this wasn’t good service and either way I don’t really like to tip but begrudgingly do it.

She said that I should tip even if the service wasn’t great and I actually laughed in her face. Why would I tip for bad service?? Isn’t the point of tipping, to tip based on service??

Idk it pissed me off so bad.

It has returned! My 1/1 pop Lego Luffy signed by Tanaka San the original voice actress of Luffy!

Currently the only pop out there and I was informed by the agency that completed the signing I was the only one that submitted this card and so far it checks out!

I am interested in selling but for the right amount considering Tanaka San will never sign again ): and it’s a 1/1.

My senior year of high school I got rejected from every single school I applied to.

I only got into 3 cal states and UC Santa Cruz and I remember being so so crushed because I thought I was going to make it to every single school I wanted (I was insane idk 😭)

Every single one of my friends got into a top UC or Ivy League school. Luckily none of them shamed me or made fun of me for going to community college but my first semester was rough, I felt like a failure and loser.

But over time I learned to make the most of my time at CC and getting a car made my life 10x better. I actually think going to CC changed the course of my life for the better because it allowed me to pursue things outside the class that directly helped my college apps.

I got into ucla, ucsd, ucsb and sdsu all schools I got rejected from in high school.

And part of me feels like I don’t deserve it and I have imposter syndrome at times but it makes me cry a little knowing I got into UCLA (specifically) no one’s ever believed in me or my ability to get into universities especially in high school and that only got worse after I got rejected every where but now I did it yk? It’s mostly my family and family friends but now I can’t WAITTT to post this shit and tell these bitches I did that 😛😛😛

Can’t wait to flex on my haters 🙏😭

I’m making this post for insight I’m not arguing or trying to stir something up🙏

As someone living in California I think tipping is unnecessary. The idea of tipping comes from the fact most people working in the restaurant industry make less than minimum wage, I live in LA so let’s use that as the example. Most waiters here make between $18-20 and on the lower end $16.50 now? (Lmk if that’s accurate)

My point being is that most of the time they’re getting paid $18 on average which is about $2 above minimum wage. What’s the idea behind tipping you if you’re making minimum wage?

Like I understand it’s to help people out but there’s so many jobs where people don’t get tipped and make minimum wage and don’t cause a problem because of it, retail, food industry, sanitation etc

When you’re serving people their food that’s your job like why do I have to pay extra for you to just do your job I don’t get it😭😭 I’m not trying to be rude I’m genuinely asking yk?

And I’ve worked in food service, movie theaters, conventions, etc I’ve never worked a job where I’ve been tipped and it’s just so jarring how people expect it. Like it’s really not optional because if you don’t tip you get shitty service yk?

I’d rather just have the cost of the food be able to cover your workers wages it really shouldn’t be my responsibility to tip your workers bruh😭 like I wanna pay $7 for a latte not $8 bc you expect a tip man and it’s even crazier for coffee shops in LA especially with matcha like it’s $9 for a matcha atp and with a tip $10 id rather just get a meal man😔😓

I think in America it’s just normalized because these corporations have convinced people it’s normal and have caused workers to now expect it.

And the idea that if you can’t afford to tip don’t eat out is very silly. Not everyone has money to tip 15% yk? Times are tuff rn and i just feel like tipping culture has gotten to a point where you might have your food stolen in a delivery, have your address leaked, food toyed with if you don’t tip “properly”

Lmk your thoughts!

As the title says I got accepted for comms.

Transferring from PCC, wanted to know if comms is difficult at UCLA because I won’t even lie I’m not having a hard time at PCC, first semester was ROUGH since I was getting adjusted, failed a class but got that figured out and here I am now bless up.

I’m hearing all different things and I’m already stressed the FUCK out because of the cost of tuition and housing.

My dad was like this is the most rigorous, hardest top major at ucla in the world and I was like 🧍

If anyone can give me some insight into comms at ucla that would be spectacular!!
