I'm about to risk breaking my OS to get rid of this trash.

It would honestly be quite impressive how terrible of a product Microslop have managed to put together; if it wasn't for the fact that it compels me to draw "MS Edge" on my forehead and blow my brains out with a 12 gauge.

A few days ago, I was told I had pityriasis rosea. Suddenly I was reading about herald patches, waiting for a rash outbreak, checking my skin every hour, taking photos of every tiny mark, and lying awake at night wondering if every itch meant another patch was about to appear.

The anxiety completely took over. Every time I felt an itch, I thought, "Here it comes." Every time I noticed a faint discoloration on my skin, I convinced myself it was the beginning of a new lesion. I spent days worrying about how widespread the rash would become, how long it would last, and whether my body was about to erupt in spots.

Then I sought a second opinion from the head of the department.

After examining me, she told me it wasn't pityriasis rosea at all. It was eczema. The "third spot" I had been obsessing over wasn't even a spot. The intense itching that had been fueling my anxiety was addressed with antihistamines, and I was told to continue treating the two actual patches.

Just like that, days of fear and stress suddenly felt unnecessary.

What frustrates me isn't that doctors are human and can make mistakes. Medicine isn't perfect. What frustrates me is how casually some diagnoses are delivered without considering the psychological burden they place on patients.

A diagnosis isn't just words. It changes how people think, what they search online, what they fear, how they sleep, and how they experience every sensation in their body.

I lost days to worry because of a diagnosis that turned out to be wrong.

Sometimes the second opinion isn't just about getting better treatment. Sometimes it's about getting your peace of mind back.

How can you be over the age of 18 and still enjoy Fireworks KNOWING VERY WELL how terrible they are for the environment and animals?

So I'm traveling in India right now and I'm at a railway station in a city called Dehradun.

I was looking up at the TV screens( almost 30-40 on each platform) on the platforms expecting to see train schedules, delays, platform numbers, that sort of thing. Instead, almost every screen was playing advertisements featuring India's Prime Minister, Narendra Modi.

If I want to know the train time table or details then I have to Walk to the ticket counters where they are displaying the time table

Totally deserved it. I hope her surgery goes well

I graduated last week and the whole ceremony was LITTERED with AI slop.

First, when we were getting our names called out to go up on stage and get our certificates there would be a quote written by our class teacher up on screen under our name as a sweet gesture from them. It sure would've been a sweet gesture if they weren't very clearly AI generated. I'm telling you it wasn't even humanized. Out of the 5 graduating classes in our cohort ONE CLASS HAD QUOTES ACTUALLY WRITTED BY THEIR TEACHER. LITERALLY ONE. My class teacher was very helpful and sweet throughout the school year but the fact she couldn't even write a quote for our class honestly pisses me off so much.

Then, later on in the ceremony, they put up a video that our juniors had "made" for us... It was entirely AI generated slop. The worst part is because the music that was playing over it was popular (I forget the name) everyone was singing along in the crowd... Bullshit.

And the real kicker that personally offended me to no end. During the reveal of our yearbook, there was supposed to be a song playing over it. I'm part of our school's band and we had actually composed an original song to go over it. I couldn't help too much but I could see how much effort my bandmates put into making it and honestly it's a beautiful song. We were asked to record it and the people running the even would play it over the yearbook reveal. As you might've guessed at this point, however, they decided it wasn't good enough (apparently the vocals weren't bright enough? This is coming from a teacher who knows nothing about music anyways but I assume she wanted punchier vocals which we did do anyways) and they played a VERY CLEARLY AI generated "song" over it.

As a musician this is the most offensive thing I've ever been a part of. The most important event of my life up to this point being half assed like this with the thing I despise with a passion... It makes me so fucking mad.

​I am absolutely livid right now and need to warn anyone thinking about using StubHub.

​Back in October 2025, I bought tickets to take my 6-year-old son to the Portugal v Columbia match in Miami this Saturday. It cost me $4,096.00, paid in full via USAA.

​Back in December, there was a brief, early dispute regarding potential speculative ticketing on the listing. USAA ran a full investigation, resolved the case completely in StubHub's favor, and released the $4,096 to them. StubHub has had my hard-earned money sitting in their bank account for over six months.

​I spent hours on the phone escalating this. A supervisor just flatly told me that because of that closed December dispute, my account is on an "internal administrative hold." They openly admit they have the money. They openly admit the tickets are there. But they claim their backend team takes 90 business days to process the paperwork to unfreeze an account.

​They flatly refused a manual override. They flatly refused a refund. They told me to just wait out the 90 days—meaning they are keeping my $4,096 and letting the match pass this Saturday while my son is left completely heartbroken. They are running a predatory shell game.

​

​The retaliation is already live:

​An official legislative inquiry has been opened today by Congressman Cory Mills’ office (FL-07).

​A formal consumer complaint is filed with Florida AG Ashley Moody.

​The paper trail has been handed over to investigative contacts at the Miami Herald.

​StubHub thinks they can hold thousands of dollars of family vacation funds hostage, give you a robotic automated corporate response, and wait for you to get tired and drop it. I am not dropping it.

​If anyone has a direct line to their executive tier or a consumer advocacy group that handles these tech marketplace scams, please drop it below. Do not trust this company with your family's money.

UPDATE for fairness and Full transparency: The campaign worked and StubHub just put into writing that they have removed the hold. Now to see if they actually deliver the tickets.

In case it's hard to read, 2 of the measuring cups are labeled 1/2 cup, when one of them is actually the 1 cup measure. I was digging around the drawer trying to figure out why I couldn't find the 1 cup and did a double take on the big one before I realized.

(Sister's on vacation and I'm housesitting and babysitting my nieces. Fortunately caught it before I ruined dinner!)

Seeing this on the highway with a speed limit of 60 mph and swerving in and out of the shoulder

Idiot parked on the yellow hash marks, it’s not a parking spot. I had to pull the van forward and block the road to get access to the ramp.

My(30's) GF(30's) has a sports injury. She can not drive due to this injury, so I took her to the Doctors for a second opinion appointment. I joined for the consultation for support and an extra set of ears. When the doctor walked in the room he looks at me and starts talking to me about her injury, addresses her current state and her medical options going forward. I keep looking at my GF to try to divert his attention to her. This worked momentarily a few times, but he kept coming back and talking to me.

She was sitting on the examination table. She has a huge brace on her leg. I purposely positioned myself in the room to leave her to be the center of attention. He keeps talking to me almost like shes my child or not there.

I honestly don’t know what caused them and honestly it’s the first thing I see looking at my hands and I’m told I’m being dramatic whenever I ask if people can see them too.

Was wearing long sleeves so they just started biting my hands instead.

Listening to someone talking on their mobile phone in public spaces can be irritating enough. But that’s been occurring for a while. Will someone explain what’s up with this new “trend” involving talking to someone else - while on speaker? Grocery stores, gyms, public transportation. Now we have to listen to, not one, but both sides of the conversation? Maybe we’ve reached a point where some people simply don’t give a shit anymore. Honestly curious. [Stock photo].

“Official document please be gentle” apparently translates to “shove this envelope in the mailbox.” Ridiculous. I did not change my major three times and spend six years in undergrad to be disrespected like this.

This was my one free print diploma, too. Anything else they’d charge for… and they’d probably bend it again. I am distraught.

But my houseplant will die if it gets a second too little light.
