#i see you fb ads

[marzipanandminutiae]

Marzi how do you not die of frustration dealing with the most self important people on the planet flocking to your posts

In this case? By being secure in the knowledge that I'm right.

Also, you know, I'm dealing with my new landlady being passive-aggressive about furniture she offered to move out of the room I'm renting, due to the whole "nobody told me it was rented furnished until three days ago and I already bought furniture from FB marketplace" situation.

#ask #anon #personal #for anyone who's not up to speed: the Craigslist listing did not say it was rented furnished #there was one question in the application about 'do you have large furniture' but since unfurnished rooms are the default here #and again no mention in the ad #I assumed like Piano rather than Bed and said no #then when I went to see the place the previous tenant said 'any of this furniture can stay if you need it' which #kind of implies that any of it can GO #so I dilligently combed through FB marketplace for some cheap antiques and put down deposits. my friend rented a uhaul #to help me move them soon #and then the landlady said something about 'my' bed in an email and it all became clear #she offered to move some things to accomodate my furniture and seemed very calm about it in the moment #but now I get an email about how they've been 'struggling' for the last several days to accomodate my situation #and it's 'troublesome' #(to be clear I offered to help when I arrived) #and my furniture isn't coming for another few days so the moving of objects wasn't urgent. and I'm happy to assist however I can

i know tumblr hates taking good ideas from its current userbase rn but just a thought: if someone reblogs a post from you with an addition, and mentions you in that addition, perhaps that could be collapsed into a single notification?

#toy txt post #alth ig you could say the same about when ppl like and reblog the same post from you. which. i mean. maybe? #idk #i dont actually mind it the way it is rn i just think its a little silly. i dont feel strongly about this but im sure they will find a way #to update it that makes me develop strong feelings about the topic #WAIT i just. yeah. okay. i do have strong feelings about this: #DO NOT add notifications to the notification page that are random ass notifications i didnt ask for of shit i dont care about #ie fb ig twitter. and their constant notifs of so and so posted this so and so liked that so and so added to their story #and listen. i love my friends. but this is taking up the Entirety of my notifications. this is not what i have notifications on for. #the notification page is for seeing interactions w the posts i made. and the feed is for seeing the posts my friends made. and their likes #should be private for them unless they opt to share them and even then on tumblr i dont look. feels weird and invasive i hate it #so okay yea i do have strong feelings about notifs: do not ever fucking do what i described above #and if you feel you Absolutely Must Switch to such a system (WHY? DONT) then AT LEAST. MAKE IT LIKE A SEPARATE TAB OR SMTH. LIKE HOW THE #MESSAGES ARE A SEPARATE TAB.

[redundantharpoons]

for all the clowning we do about tumblr being a hellsite, at least it only shows me stuff from the people i follow in the order they posted the stuff

#facebook is the worst #y'all ever see something right as you go to close it and try to find that thing again when you immediately repoen FB? #oh fuck they're back they prob want to see an entirely different newsfeed with shit thats a week old #and 4/5 of the posts are ads #my twitter tl is at least 50% you might like suggestions from people i dont know and about shit i dont care about #god i hate algorithms #tumblr plz dont change

[marmorenshud]

tumblr ads: every 10 or so posts. ofc more than I wanted but pretty tolerable. don't really notice them too much

Instagram ads: every third post. way too much. annoying and obviously unnecessary.

facebook ads: just ads. there's only ads. did you want an ad? here's an ad. Its ten pages of straight ads. what did you come here for again? your friends posts? they're gone. Its all ads now. even your friends are ads. aaaaads

#caw #ads #i hate fb but i love shit posting so its hard you see #bring back MySpace

[illgiveyouahint]

I barely use facebook but when I do open it up and see the dash I am once again reminded how hostile social media is nowadays. You scroll like 5 seconds and you already get sponsored posts, suggested posts for you,then a post or two from a friend, and again sponsored post and suggested post and some reels. Like for fucks sake I just want to see what's happening in my friend's life. God I hate it.

#I mean I mainly use it for messenger #since other people still mainly use messenger here #and everything else on fb is useless #it makes me appreciate tumblr so much #tumblr where we still have chronological dashboard #tumblr where you can pay a bit and see ads only when someone screenshots it and makes it into a meme #where a suggestion page is separate from your main page #and so you get the freedom to choose what you want to see #thanks tumblr

Australians have you been saddened by thriftbooks.com's prices after currency conversion and shipping?? Discouraged from finding books in physical op shops because of random availability, pricing, and organisation? Just don't want to pay 30 dollars for a book??

I got you fam! brotherhoodbooks.com.au is an online secondhand bookseller. Books are around 6-12 dollars, plus 9.95 shipping if you spend less than 40 dollars. Often there are multiple copies so you can pick the condition you want.

#im gonna buy me a subaru #subaru here means 2 jeanette winterson books #WHEN im back from travels not now i got other books to read #this post was brought on because i boight circe new and its the most cheaply printed book ive ever seen #and also because i saw an fb ad #yeah its the beotherhood of saint Lawrence but if you go to their physical store im not seeing a difference here?

[dawdlecentric]

Every day I'm contemplating it but at the same time I stand by the thought that I despise updates

I actually haven't updated my tumblr app in like... 4 years??? lmao idk why but I just refuse to do so when I keep seeing posts on how tumblr updates are utter garbage. Even when they introduced the poll update I'm just freaking stubborn and ignored it but felt kinda left out when I'm unable to see or vote on polls on my dash ever since. The only way I see polls is to go on desktop which I rather do on PC but m just lazy to do so

Tho not too happy with using the desktop version either cuz of its twt lookalike design 😑

Well, so far I can still see posts fine on my dashboard (aside from not seeing polls) but lately the "recommend for you" disappeared which is kinda bummer since that's where I wanna see random posts

Grrr one day ONE DAY I might update this piece of garbage of an app

#my ramblings #same thing with my twt app but let's face it. ain't NO FUCKIN WAY I'd update just to see that stupid xitter rebrand #I'll be keeping my blue bird icon thank you very much >:> although I can't see qrts there anymore : #something something hating app/software updates cuz I hated change #thank goodness the auto update for my apps are off so I could contemplate if I should update them or not for a looong time #not for fb or youtube tho. those things auto updates for some reason but I don't really use em that much anyway #watching (especially long) videos on yt suckass nowadays bc of the countless ads so I literally just use fb to watch random videos lol

[ms-demeanor]

sex work is work, no problem with that, but spamming sex work absolutely everywhere now is not okay. bot or not, it is not okay to shove your probably fake/stolen tits or ass into everyone's face even where kids are. it is absolutely the lowest, cheapest trash doing that. are these people showing their barely covered up pussy to school kids on the street to maybe get a customer? because they are doing exactly that on the internet. if you cant find customers and need to lower yourself to std ridden junkey trash standards who missed the way and entitled themselves to begging for money outside trash town, zero support from me!

Yeah you really sound like someone who supports sex workers. That's what I always think when I hear people using words like "disease-ridden" and "junkie" - 'wow, that person must be SUCH an ally. braver than any US marine, thank you for your service, person who believes sex work is work but thinks STIs or drug addiction are 'trash'.'

So, point by point:

It's not absolutely everywhere. You don't see people trying to link their onlyfans on facebook most of the time (i've actually never seen it but i could believe it is happening, though it's not common because FB has real-name policies that are unfriendly to sex workers). You're unlikely to see fansly links as sidebar ads on cspan. People aren't linking their pages in the amazon reviews. You're seeing it "everywhere" because you're not going anywhere. Tell me you spend all your time on two to three platforms without telling me you spend all your time on two to three platforms. Instagram, tiktok, twitter, and tumblr are full of people who are promoting all kinds of brands and one of those kinds of brands is sex work.

Those are also all platforms that have age restrictions and behavior standards, and of all of them tumblr is the one that has the history of being the most openly sexual and the least connected to legal identities. People are linking to their diy porn because of the culture of these websites both currently and historically. I once posted a video on this website of me bringing myself to orgasm in a public bathroom stall then inserting a dildo into my vagina before I went on stage and performed a set with my band. I did it for free and for fun five years ago, the week before the porn ban hit.

What I'm saying here is that the culture of this website has a much longer history of openness about sex and sexuality and the visual presentation of sex than it does of being full of people who think teens shouldn't see nipples. This is an *extremely* reasonable place to post information linking to porn that you make and to use cute pictures of yourself to do so.

It's also really easy to tell that these people aren't bots or using stolen images because the whole point of the live platform is that you can click through and go talk to them. Strange Aeons did just that and you can see what happened. (click on that video for a fun cameo at 6:04) Turns out live users are just a bunch of people (not networks stealing images the way that actual porn *bots* on tumblr do) and the ones who are trying to do sex work on the live platform itself get banned.

But also kids too young to see the occasional boob shouldn't be on tumblr! (like, seriously, define kids. what age is too young to see the kinds of images allowed by the tumblr live tos? how about the ones banned by the tumblr live tos? How old should you have to be before someone shows you an ahegao face on a hoodie in public? What should the punishment be for the ahegao fashionistas for exposing six year olds to anime tongues? What should the minimum age be to go on the beach and see men in speedos? Fifteen, or is that still abusive to children? Maybe we should make it twenty to be safe, or better yet why don't we make it twenty AND ban speedos? this is what you sound like, you fucking asshole). Tumblr has age limits and people under that age limit shouldn't be looking at most things on this website. A smiling woman in a bikini top or a dude with his abs out are fucking nothing compared to the kind of damage you personally and specifically are trying to inflict with your shitty ideas.

Posting t&a on tumblr is not at all comparable to doing street level work and soliciting children for a number of reasons, but I'd just like to really take the time to point out that you just compared the profile pics on tumblr live to sexually soliciting a child. You literally did the "x group i hate are pedophiles" thing, which is exactly why it's such a huge problem that any and all types of nudity have been stigmatized online. We have created an entirely new paradigm of "pedophile" that means "existed around a child while wearing tight pants." You are such a fucking clueless, sanctimonious pile of shit that you can't even see that that's what you're doing. This is literally, exactly kink at pride discourse.

And that's even if I grant you that these people are posting t&a! Go look at the live leaderboards, you don't have to accept the ToS to see the leaderboards! We are talking about *at most* saucy pin-up levels of eroticism. I have seen fucking holiday cards with more visible cleavage than any of the top 200 tumblr live streamers right now.

The only thing in your final sentence that makes any sense is that you are positioning tumblr as trash town.

Yeah. I'm actually not at all impressed by tumblr recently and that has a lot more to do with the influx or resurgence of nuance-allergic, anti-sex, whiny shits like you than it does with a banner that i can scroll past in a quarter of a second.

I want people reading this to really, really sit down and think about what they're calling assault or hypersexualiztion or whatever. We are talking about profile pictures. You are so offended by a bar of 4 profile pictures at the top of your dash that you're comparing regular ass humans (some of whom are sex workers and some of whom are just streamers who took thirst trap selfies) to the real life solicitation and abuse of children.

TOUCHING GRASS IS NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU PLEASE GO INTERACT WITH ACTUAL REAL HUMANS WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT DASHCON OR MILKSHAKE DUCK ARE. YOU ARE CRITICALLY INTERNET POISONED AND IF YOU TALKED TO SOMEONE AT THE DMV AND DESCRIBED IT AS ASSAULTING CHILDREN TO HAVE SOMEONE IN A BIKINI ON A BILLBOARD THEY WOULD IMMEDIATELY BEGIN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET AWAY FROM YOU. THINK OF THIS POST AS THE CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR TELLING YOU THAT THE SHADOWS YOU'RE SEEING AREN'T ACTUALLY DEMONS BUT THAT YOU ARE GOING TO REALLY REGRET IT IF YOU DON'T GO OUTSIDE.

[brf-rumortrackinganon]

For the anon who asked--

The Charlatan Duchess (TCD) was a blog back in the early Harkle/Sussex days that really focused on the contradictions and inconsistencies, if you will, that Meghan presented. Among their information, they had:

Receipts of edited articles and photographs.

Tea and gossip about the Sussexes from people in their circles.

Reports from people who were actually in/at/around where the Sussexes were doing engagements that contradicted their PR.

Meghan's old Tig articles and Instagram photos/posts that contradicted her Duchess narrative.

CopyKates and Diana 2.0 behaviors/outfits.

A running list of Meghan's fashion don'ts and royal mistakes.

TCD also had a pretty big compilation/collection of photographs and videos from Meghan's first pregnancy that pointed out things like varying bump sizes (bigger one day, smaller the next) and behaviors that were incongruent with normal pregnancy (like squatting down at 8 months pregnant with a huge belly and keeping her knees and ankles together).

They had a pretty big following here on Tumblr and there was a companion Facebook group. (It's not really clear if Tumblr was first or if FB was first.) You had to be a member of the Facebook group to see the FB comments, but the tumblr was wide open and anyone could see/send asks. I think the FB group and the tumblr blog were being run by two different people, or two different groups of people, because the FB and the tumblr didn't sound the same and didn't have the same tone in their coverage.

(I was on the FB group for a hot minute and it was so disgusting there that I noped out of it a couple days later. It was a very different place than the tumblr blog.)

At some point, the administrators of the TCD FB group began asking members for money/donations for charity, which people would send them, and they used relationships built within the TCD FB community to scam the members for more money, including selling their data (obtained from "friendships" and the membership questionnaire you had to complete to be added to the group). In April 2020ish, the TCD FB admins were doxxed. That information didn't match up to the information the FB group were told, and people started asking questions about the charity donations they had been sending to the admins.

I don't remember who the admins were pretending to be - maybe they were pretending to be British aristos?, but they ended up being an Air Force dependa and her mother, basically running a huge grift and scamming a lot of people out of money and data privacy.

Anyway, once the TCD FB fraud was uncovered, FB members turned on the admins. The admins turned on the group members and the FB drama spilled over to the TCD Tumblr group. The TCD Tumblr admin also got doxxed, began getting the same harassment as the FB admins - everyone thought they were the same person - and in early May 2020, the TCD tumblr admin deleted the blog to stop the harassment and doxxing.

So that's what happened to The Charlatan Duchess and that's why this side of tumblr (in general) gets nostalgic for her - a lot of us found each other through TCD and a lot of us had our own theories and opinions about the Sussexes validated through the receipts on TCD's blog.

You can still find some of the TCD posts floating around here on tumblr in the reblogs. Pretty much everyone who was around in 2017-2020 will have some TCD in their archives.

01/28/2024 Daily Crew Recap

TLDR; Hoist The Ads Charity Donations; Campaign Status Updates; Hunt For the Pirate Home Watch Party; General Morale; Past Renewal Campaign Comparisons; Cast & Crew Sightings; Upcoming Events: Pets for Pirates Jan 29; Love Notes; Daily Darby / Tonight's Taika

=Hoist The Ads Updates =

Looks like the voting is done, and the results are in! @gingerlyvibing was kind enough to break down how much is going where. Just a reminder-- you all made this happen! Everything over the $10K it cost to get the billboard is going to help out these awesome charities! Links to threads: Tumblr / Twitter

Funnily enough, apparently one of the trucks still has the ads on it

== How To Help ==

How To Help Save OFMD Task List - US

How to Help Save OFMD Task List - Outside US

I'm helping some folks over on FB get similar/ the same updates right now, if anyone would like to help give me feedback I'd appreciate it, please just PM me! I have a couple ideas and I want to run them by folks.

== Status Updates ==

Good news! Wb is still having trouble recovering, as it should. Thanks @btweenhisteeth on twitter

==Petition Status==

Over 82K -- going slow, but still ticking up! Takes time all, especially since we're focused on the networks right now. Don't give up!

== Hunt For The Pirate Home Watch Party ==

Had some great turn out all over the world today for the Hunt For the Wilder People watch party. Thank you again to @dandeebakes for getting those coordinated!

Saw some great trends during it, and a lot of people having fun. If you haven't actually seen the movie, I highly recommend it, it's incredibly good!

==General Morale==

So despite things being fairly quiet today, the general vibe from folks has been that we're just in a holding pattern and we're just gonna keep clowning and polite menacing until we hear more word.

== Other Cancelled Series Comparisons ==

Something cool that I saw more of today was several groups doing comparisons with other cancelled TV Shows. Thank you to @OFMDCrew for these stats on twitter.

After they were posted, I did hear conflicting feelings on these (some felt it helped raise their mood, some felt it made it worse). So I wanted to point out a few things:

1. We've done a hell of a lot in 3 weeks (and signatures were our priority for most of the first two weeks, but once David Jenkins lit the beacon 8 days ago, we changed our focus). 2. We had a leadership change mid-all of this with Renew As A Crew. 3. Oh and there's other stuff in the world going on (Palestine) 4. As @saltpepperbeard says in their post "David only posted his "call to arms" just a little over a week ago. Eight days ago." So much has changed and we've STILL accomplished so much in that time too.

We are kicking ass, we really are, I promise you!

Across Twitter / IG / and Tumblr, several people have mentioned they feel like something's "in the air". That's totally a second hand "I have a feeling" thing but as you probably remember, quite a few of us had that as a bad feeling the morning before the show got cancelled. Now, if you're not into that kinda thing-- I would like to mention, that could just be because this crew is so fucking awesome, and that's why the vibe is so good-- because we're leaning on each other and take care of each other. Also when lovely people like @saltpepperbeard (as referenced above) write lovely responses to asks that can always help too. This post made ME feel better, I recommend giving it a read for a little perspective :)

= Cast & Crew Sightings =

1. The weekend is still pretty scarce as usual. Our pirate queen Ruibo Qian has been enjoying a lot of everyone's artwork lately. 2. Nathan Foad announced his con dates 3. Renewal Campaign Related: mostly seeing updates again from our boi Erroll Shand supporting the campaign.

== Pets For Pirates ==

Tomorrow, Jan 29, there will be a Pets for Pirates Even! Share your Pet pictures and use the hashtags:

#PetsForPirates

#AdoptOurCrew

#SaveOFMD

==Love Notes==

I know, I know "Jeez Abby, Shut Up We Already Know How Awesome We Are" Well good! Cause you should! But that won't stop me from saying so again! I'm serious when I say the vibe is so good right now in general because we have such a great crew. You all take such good care of each other and it shows every single day. You helped raise an extra $11,578 that are now going to charities that are going to help so many families, and kids, and that's just from the extra stuff from the Hoist The Ads Campaign -- not including everything else going on. I'm going to include a picture from one of my favorite people @thelatestkate because she does awesome work, and this one applies significantly to all of you. <3

Daily Darby/Tonights Taika

Tonights gifs are brought you by the wonderful @celluloidbroomcloset's Posts: Rhys / Taika

I'm literally watching Green Lanturn this moment because I needed to remember this youngin Taika, so thank you / no thank you for that, but hey I've watched worse for Rhys so I guess I can't complain.

Goodnight Lovelies <3

A person on X asked for a pose like this and I got a bit inspired. It's such a sweet pose. I added a few variations for it. They are mix and match.  I couldn't quite get the chairs right so I suggest alt-placing them to fit under the sims or using TOOL. 

Download free here

(As always there may be some clipping. Should be able to be used with both male and female sims.)

You will need Andrew's Pose Player or WW Poses and either the Sim Transporter or MC Command Center.

I did not doubt or look for evidence after this tweet

They are together 100%

Case closed🔐

Dear Case Closed Anon,

I think we all have our own lightbulb moment, when you just see/hear something, all the (I Ching, heh) coins drop and things make sense.

I am adding here the tweet, with credits and thanks given to @mariaae, who is one of The Shire's two Historians in Chief, along with @dillon7fan ( 'simply the best', indeed), and 'better than all the rest' 😘:

For me, it was Covfefe. Covfefe Pics. Despite the Ego Shitshow that followed and the whole hullaballoo, those pics are real. They cannot be unseen. The person who went there, @samheughanswife, proved that you can remain honest and upright, even when circumstances force you to stand (quite precariously, I might add, but hey - clever!) on the edge of legality. And the fact that she had her pic taken with S, very recently, only proves the complete lack of unwanted consequences, despite what has been screeched to oblivion in this fandom, more than once.

The rest was only confirmation.

Hii girl, just letting you know this ad was shown in my fb page and I’m 100% sure those lips previews are from your cc, I don’t know if they got your permission for this but in case they don’t, now you know

Hi! Yes, they took my preview and, no, they didn't ask for permission, lol. I have already recently sent an appeal to Instagram about this, and their previous ad was deleted. But they did it again. I don't know what exactly is in their head, but I sent the deletion request again.

This is all, of course, very frustrating. Anyway, thank you for writing to me! I am very pleased that people, seeing this, write to me, and not just pass by! ♡

OI! FACEBOOK USERS WHO HATE AI! GUESS WHAT!

META IS GOING TO FEED YOUR POSTS AND IMAGES AND COMMENTS TO THEIR AI!

From what I understand this is already being implemented for Americans, with no opt-out option, but there is apparently a form you can fill in to ask them to remove all your data.

For us in the EU, we can fill in a form to object to our stuff being added, but there are some things we need to pay extra attention to:

Meta has to approve of the objection — meaning that sending it in doesn't necessarily mean it will go through

In the country they want the ISO country code (e.g. SE for Sweden). I read that someone got it to work by writing Italy rather than Italia, but I am unsure if that works for all countries

EVEN IF YOUR OBJECTION IS APPROVED, YOUR STUFF CAN BE ADDED TO META AI IF SOMEONE WHO HASN'T OBJECTED TO META AI SHARE YOUR POST/IMAGES TO THEIR PAGE

A verification code will be sent to your email, so make sure you write in the email you use for fb correctly and be prepared to check the spamfolder

It's supposed to be implemented the 26th of June here, so do it asap

I don't know what the situation about this is for people outside EU, so if you happens to know please add to this with whatever information you have!

Check the notifications on your fb account and you should find one from Meta with all the relevant links there!

I will also copy what I wrote in the form into the comments on this post (for easy copying) in case someone doesn't have the spoons to write their own reasons. It's far from perfect but it's better than not doing it at all.

Also I don't know if this includes Instagram, I couldn't see anything about it over there, but I imagine it does or will soon enough, so keep your eyes open for that too.

(Also, hate to be that person, but please reblog to spread awareness!)

Okay, so I'm gonna try not to freak out, but uh.. I used to follow your art, and then my Tumblr went down, and I lost it.. the thing is I have you added on fb, and I'm ngl. I always thought your art looked familiar. Then I saw your Tumblr linked, and I honestly... cried. Your art always brought me so much comfort, and I was devastated when I couldn't find it anymore.. holy hell, I'm so excited. I can see more art now! I wanted to ask how you're holding up. I know life can be rough, and honestly, it's not nice more than half of the time to people who honestly deserve love. I hope you're gone from your old situation, though, and tbh I'm super happy I can see your art again! Though, tbh I'm nervous about messaging you anywhere since I'm not exactly... a friend or anything QwQ I hope you're doing okay, though, and I hope you have a nice day/afternoon/night!

Hello!! Welcome back!!! Glad that you enjoy my content still huhu 🫶

#messyr #As for situation- NO NOTHING'S NEW AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA (im going insane) #I don't know- The more I continue the more it gets worse and my body is also a bit-- too tired #the shit i went through remains a deep wound that re-opens every time they dig at the stitch. As for the present- #new wounds are painted to my brain and body- seemingly- each time they get mad oof #i'll be fine though- My coping mechanism remains the same: DELUSION

[loveislandthegame]

my overall thoughts on S7, art edition: it's giving rough draft . i really have no idea how any of these design choices got approved in the first place

as an artist, and more importantly, somebody who has eyeballs: this season looked like absolute shit . i can’t speak for everybody, but personally i would be embarrassed to release work of such poor quality

not only is it hideous, it’s clearly rushed. i'm getting the vibe that FB took some s4-6 concept islanders and threw them all together at the last minute (still believe the theory that alex was going to be the redeemed eddie FB was talking about, before the poll revealed nobody wants that nasty man back lol)

weird poses, weird proportions, weird shading on everything, and almost every single guy has youcef's abs . rafael did when he was first revealed, even though he has love handles ??

this is just speculation, but i really do think the heavy amount of reused assets is to cover up signs of AI art. everything that is original, like hair, hands, and clothing, looks a hot ass mess . i think we’re all aware that uma's hair looks crazy, but it's not just her. pretty much every islander has an issue where the flow of their hair is "unnatural," like it was either drawn by AI, or by an artist that was paid one cent & pocket lint. if there were any human beings involved in this, whoever designed that blue tutu partywear and the suggested prom outfit needs to be fired expeditiously

the customisation options are severely lacking, and it's further limited by some of the stuff being straight up unusable. mind you, this is a gem hair and a gem hair colour. you have to pay for this 😭

instead of adding new clothes/hair/accessories, or at the very least, fixing the issues with the options we already have (why do the necklaces go under half of the clothing ?) ...they keep adding shoes. ugly as hell shoes at that. we don't even see MC's lower body outside of picking outfits , so what is the purpose of having like 30 fucking pairs ?? i know FB has a "thing" for feet, but come on man . these yellow ankle-breakers are the stuff of nightmares

clearly their quality assurance team has left the building, we’re the QA now 😭 problems that should've never happened in the first place, like the arm tattoo having no transparency on plus size MCs, the hole in the curly hair, earrings going behind hair, alex’s eyebrows, and rafa’s anatomically incorrect body were only adjusted after complaints. everything else is just gonna stay looking busted i guess lmao
