phenomenal time. band? amazing. vibes? sensational. sweat? profuse.

BUT to the guy who was literally punching people in the head at the rail tonight: someone is gonna rock your shit for that behavior. hope it was worth it. are you happier now?

Edit: shoutout to the homie who offered to lift me for a crowdsurf tonight (and was helping out tons of other people) that was my first time and i really appreciated it. you’re a real one and you are what makes concerts such a special thing.

ISO Blush Silk Organdy Waltz Gown

hello!

I hope it’s okay to post this here, but I’m desperately hoping someone could help. I fell in the LOVE with the Blush Silk Organdy Waltz Gown, but unfortunately they’re out of my size (S). I reached out directly to Selkie to see if they’ll be restocking soon, but to no avail. I’m hoping to see if anyone here has my size and if they’re willing to sell theirs? Please let me know if so! I have an event I’m holding in February and I just can’t imagine wearing anything else besides this gown.

cheers!

Just caught up on the Vaxis novellas…

SPOILERS AHEAD. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

just finished reading my Vaxis III novella and need to talk to others about it like, yesterday.

what a cliffhanger to be left on! i really was not expecting Blind Side to be a full tilt baddie, was kind of half-expecting some bad-guy-turned-good-guy trope, and was pleasantly (and unpleasantly) surprised. what a bastard - i love him!!!

Siv’s death was kind of surprising in the sense that it was so anti-climactic, but i suspect that was intentional. the unheavenly creatures are not really afforded the luxuries of being able to mourn others, so that makes sense. but damn, we moved on so quickly lol.

i was a bit disappointed in the lack of fleshing out Naianasha, feels like her role is kind of conveniently placed at times and is mostly elevating Sirius. really hoping we see some more of her backstory and character in the next two albums, as i love the whole concept of the Prise.

also, i do think this has been the best written novella out of the three. not only has the editing quality vastly improved (looking at you, Vaxis II), but the writing quality also is more buttoned up. less flowery language when not needed, which was a complaint i had from Vaxis I. happy to see the improvements made as time goes on.

i could keep going but id love to see what everyone else’s thoughts are! i don’t have any coheed homies irl to discuss with haha.

missing holofoil stamp - fake or misprint?

hello!

I recently ordered the 2022 Jumpstart edition of Wolverine Riders for a deck I’m working on. Got my card in the mail today and immediately noticed it’s missing the holofoil stamp at the bottom. I think it’s real and is passing the tests I’m familiar with, but would love a second pair of eyes to keep me from spiraling lol.

also separate question: do I let the seller know? i feel like it would be kind to thank them since ive never gotten a misprint before, but unsure if that opens a can of worms I don’t wanna deal with.

AIO: mechanic was using my car at 1am?

hello.

so, i recently had a repair/bodywork done on my vehicle and received it back. it work looks great, they washed the vehicle also, cool cool cool. when i got in the vehicle i immediately noticed i had less gas than i thought i dropped it off with. a little under a full tank is now a half tank. maybe i misremembered? on about my day.

once i got home i started really looking at everything around the car, and some things just seemed odd. there were parts of the car outside that had bits of caked on mud, like near the seam of the trunk, despite being washed. the car was dirty when i dropped it off though, but from sticky pollen and tree debris. there was also some dried mud dust on the dashboard, passenger side, and i rarely have people in my vehicle much less ones getting mud on my dashboard? i also noticed a scratch on the front that i definitely do not recall doing and it’s a brand new car. my right brake light cover is scuffed up, and there is a small scuff below the license plate. again, all things i definitely do not recall being that way before but again, maybe im making a mountain out of a molehill. i cannot definitively say those damages weren’t already there and i somehow didn’t notice.

BUT i have an app for my phone that is connected to my car and it sends notifications to the app when certain things occur, like when remote start up finishes or if there is a malfunction. the app itself is silenced on my phone so i didn’t get the notifications in real time, but i did go through the history log and there were multiple notifications of a keyfob error and one brake light malfunction at 1am on saturday night/early sunday morning. ??????

so like am i fuckin trippin or does it sound like someone had my car over the weekend and was driving it? im super paranoid that someone took it out racing or joyriding or something, but i forgot to take a picture of the mileage before dropping it off unfortunately. but the notifications on the app and the gas has me trippin’. i don’t wanna call the shop all accusatory, but they’re closed on the weekends on I simply don’t understand why someone would be driving the car the late on the weekend. ive never experienced this before so im really anxious about the whole situation. i also know it’s not unusual for shops to drive your car and ensure everything is working, but at 1am???? for bodywork??? im losing my mind someone please tell me if i should even pursue this or just chill.

hello everyone! ive encountered an odd situation with a Seller (im the Buyer) and im curious what the general consensus is on this:

  1. i placed an order for a small piece of custom art on April 7th; immediately reached out to the seller with my customization choice, they confirmed they could accommodate, all is well.

  2. on 04/15 the order updates and says it’s on the way. all is well still. im slightly suspicious that my custom order is ready so quickly, but nonetheless looking forward to it.

  3. on 04/23 the Seller reaches out to let me know they accidentally sent my order to a different customer, and vice versa. they ask if i can exchange the item back once i receive it, so they can reconcile the issue, which i oblige to. perhaps this next part is on me, because i ASSUMED we (me and this other random customer who supposedly received my item) would return what we receive to the Seller so they can resend the appropriate item to each of us, which is why i agreed. the Seller asks me to reach out once i receive the package - no problem.

4a. i receive the package yesterday, and immediately let the Seller know. they then ask me to pay for shipping to forward the package to the correct recipient, and say they’ll reimburse me. ive never heard of this before - any returns ive needed to do the Seller provides a pre-paid return label - so im immediately suspicious. i also ask if that means they’ve given my personal address to the other customer, and they confirm that is the case. at this point im rather upset because i did not consent to my address and name being given out to someone random. i tell the Seller im not comfortable with this and its feeling scammy.

4b. once i mention it feeling scammy, the Seller offers to cancel my original order, stop the shipment through the mail carrier, and redo my order. first off - what? why would you cancel the order and redo it if the other person has supposedly already forwarded the correct purchase to me? and how would you have the ability to hold the shipment if it’s not coming from you? they also mention several times that they are not a scam, and they worried i would report them over this. they also said i agreed to the exchange so they thought it was fine. i explain that the way this was being handled was not normal and not what i expected. at this point it’s really not making sense to me, and i open a case through Etsy as i no longer want to engage with the Seller. Etsy issues me credit immediately and the order is now cancelled and refunded.

  1. the seller is now asking me to return the order i received since they refunded me. i did open the package to take a photo and confirm i did not receive what was intended, for the Etsy case. that being said i don’t have anything to repack the item, unfortunately. i feel bad though so i told the seller if they provided me with a pre-paid return label that i would return the item directly to them.

so does this sound weird??? im not sure if this is an honest mistake and im in the wrong, or if my suspicion is right and there is a scam afoot. but genuinely ive never heard of, or been asked, to pay for something with the promise of being reimbursed. any input would be most helpful!
