ΝΑΙ ΓΑΜΩ. Even though my family works in the tourism industry (because my island literally only has that. Any sort of local economy was eradicated and everything is incredibly overpriced and imported), I have felt the negative effects deep in my soul, so much so I wish it would just dissolve even if that means they need to find another way to make a living. I'll be damned if I ever willingly work for traditional tourism (ecotourism I will consider)
So essentially... a rebranded dehumidifier?
So one summer while me and my cousin were broke and bored, we decided to pimp out her feet as she has crazy long toes and apparently some foot fetish dudes enjoy that niche.
I set up an Instagram, we decided that I would be the manager and media representative (AKA answer the messages on the account for her) and she would provide the goods (long toes)
One dude started messaging the account praising her toes and I would of course be as courteous as possible. Soon enough we got him to place an order. Only problem was, he only used cashapp to send money, something not available in our country, which should have stopped us initially but we tried finding a workaround.
Where we (or I) fucked up? He said he wanted to see the video before sending any money.
I, a dumbass, sent the video.
Never heard back from him.
Thankfully the video wasn't even of significant production value (very clearly an amateur job) and the only thing sacrificed was the dignity of my cousin's toes.
Safe to say that discouraged us and we haven't attempted to do that again since.
I knew this girl once whose surname was Δρακοπούλου (Drakopulu) that means "daughter of the dragon"
I think that's pretty fire idk about you guys
Is that relevant to my comment? I said support the creators directly, not the corporations and explained with examples. That reply was suspicious and arrogant asf if you ask me. I never said spend 60$ for the game, I said support the creators directly, even through smaller amounts. Even a euro from a person who can is enough. You cracked the game, you liked it, why not do that bare minimum if you legit have that money + a lot more?
If you have money to spend (and THAT much), you can still pirate, but if you pirate without trying to fund the source of your art and tools, you're a mega asshole. Especially if you have as much money as this dude claims to have. You can find the creators of your games online, find their ko-fis, their patreons. Where there's a will there's a way
You could look into getting a second hand Thinkpad on ebay
If only we KEPT THE SENTIMENT - sincerely, a tired Greek
So... Peertube anyone?
Different world views like what?
Well that depends, what causes this difficulty in reading and how far does it extend? Is it dyslexia? Do they have issues memorizing things? Are they completely beyond learning a fixed action?
This is exactly why during my solo shift I turn off the music completely. I want silence. Beautiful, delicious silence.
