Pretty much the title.

Some parents actually had the genius idea to bring their baby to see Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The poor kid was terrified during the action scenes and was either cry-screaming or babbling the ENTIRE time. Everyone in the theater was clearly annoyed, but these entitled parents refused to step out even ONCE.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice or shared experiences.

I [17F] am currently on vacation in France and I keep noticing men over 50 staring at me very intensely. I’m wearing sunglasses so they don’t know I see them, but it’s making me feel incredibly uncomfortable and unsafe.

I wear regular clothes (jogging shorts, tees, camis), nothing overly revealing. I know the logical thing to do is ignore it, but it’s really hard to just accept being objectified like this.

Has anyone else dealt with this? Any tips on how to handle it or feel safer?

In Canada, I don't have access to Depop Shipping, so I set an estimated shipping cost of $10 for small items such as crop tops and small dresses. I only ship within Canada, and my last two orders were sent to Ontario (I'm in Quebec).

However, when I went to the post office, the packages did not qualify as oversized lettermail (38 cm × 27 cm × 2 cm). The only option available was a tracked parcel, which cost about $21 including taxes. There were no untracked parcel options. Since the items I sold were only selled for $5–10, I ended up losing money.

I'm worried that charging $21 for shipping on Depop will discourage buyers. I'm also concerned that using a company other than Canada Post might mean longer delivery times or even higher costs.

Does anyone have advice on cheaper shipping methods in Canada, or alternatives to Canada Post?
