My first lucid dream…you wanna know what I really wanted to do? Like, above freaking flying? I wanted to summon Slenderman. The dream lasted, like, seven seconds? -unwanted input-

He's real, honestly.

I definitely would, especially if you didn't give them permission to publish or edit the article.

it wasn’t my article, it was copy for an article i linked them like the blurb you post before the link

Definitely. Especially because they edited your work without permission.

Yeah.....that sounds shifty. I would bring it up.

i ended up bringing it up, and the excuse was it was an article they were already considering posting/already had copy for it, and also they have to be mindful of their audience (they are aimed at moderates) so maybe i don’t want to work with them idk

By the title of the blog, I say she was hacked. Or someone took over after she deleted somehow. She had already said she might delete.

Aye, sounds about right. It’s just so damn frustrating. It’s not cool to bully people into shit like that--she was wrong, she admitted it, everyone needs to let it go already.

THIS IS TREE-SON!

So you know how most stores have this area where customers have to go to return merchandise? Yeah, well it was about my second or third week working there, and I was out in Garden as the cashier. A lady comes up to the counter, and slams down a dead Hibiscus tree. She starts rummaging around in her purse, grumbling, "I'm returning this." I look from left to right, and then say politely, "I'm sorry ma'am, we don't do returns out here. You have to go inside to the customer service desk." She looked up at me as if I'd just knocked the plant off the counter; she seemed jolted. She sneered back, "You're telling me I have to go ALL the way inside to return this?!" I nod at her, unsure what she wanted me to say. Then she shrilled, "WHY?! Why can't you do it out here?!" That was a good question, honestly. This was my first job and I did not know. I suggested perhaps it's just a whole other story than simply ringing up merchandise; an entirely different job. I told her I was not taught how to do Returns despite a couple of clips, and then she shouted some more: "WELL YOU BETTER LEARN!!" I repeat myself, telling her we did not do returns on regular cash registers. She seemed fed up, and then said she'd just like to get a new Hibiscus tree then. For free. I looked at her as if she'd lost her mind, and then told her if she'd like to replace the tree, she'd have to return the damaged one first. I was sure the lady was about to break my neck until a Garden associate came along to see what was going on. The woman screamed her anecdote of what had just transpired. The Garden associate confirmed we did NOT do returns on regular cash registers, and that she had to go inside to customer service to receive store credit for the damaged plant. The woman refused and then demanded to be taken to the Hibiscus plants. I don't know what happened while they went out to get the tree, but the lady was laughing. She bought the tree, grabbed her dead one, and then left as if everything she'd made a huge fuss over had just never happened. I was left incredibly puzzled for the rest of the day...

I don’t think you should have to. If they don’t like what they see, they can stop coming back. Unless they’re harassing you?

It's a family member who is taking my need to vent personally. If it were anyone else, whatever, but I can't escape family you know? I mean, I haven't made a decision yet but it feels like it might be my only option.

That has to be annoying. I had a customer, who smelled strongly of alcohol, actually propose to me. It was so creepy. I just kind of gave him the side eye until he finally left.

That's really gross.

I'm lucky that this person is nice but still, I don't like this.
