The moderators/editors on Genius are so bloody weird. Rejecting annotations at random and saying it has to meet certain conditions which when you go on the actual guidelines for annotations they don't even have to meet those conditions!

I hope they're getting paid because my heart bleeds for anyone sad enough to be a jobsworth without any kind of earning.

I’ve been experiencing major hair breakage over the last few months (which is upsetting enough) and the salon tried to blame me using an invisibobble. I don’t use heat and wash once/twice a week with high-quality products and it’s rarely tied up. I’ve never had this issue and now I’m being blanked and dread finding another salon. It looks unprofessional (not just the hair). No one is that “busy”. Hope I can find another courteous salon to rectify the mess, but it leaves a sour taste that my long hair has been fried off and they don’t give af.

I don’t understand - do you think the salon are at fault somehow??? Hair breakage is usually down to hormone imbalance or poor diet. Or frying it with bleach.

It’s been over-processed as I’ve never experienced severe breakage before. Some is inevitable, even with the best stylist, but you trust the integrity of your hair won’t be risked. And if it is, at least have the decency to respond, even if it’s to say you don’t want to fix it.

So it’s been bleached by the salon, and now it’s breaking and you are annoyed because you think that should take responsibility?

No, it’s the risk you take with peroxide. And if by “take responsibility” you mean I’m expecting something for free, absolutely not 🤣 But I still need to correct it and we’d agreed a (paid for) plan, whatever the cause. Now I’ll have to find another salon willing to fix it.

Still don’t understand your gripe? They have agreed to fix it? So what’s the issue?? Also what are they or any other salon going to do, if it’s breaking off the only option is cutting it to get rid of as much of the damage as you can?

So sick of idiots who claim that they love a TV series or film but then ask stuuuuupiiiid questions about the plot. Like are you really watching it?? It’s not hard to keep up, especially if you’ve seen it 7373 times as you claim you have 🙄 And those who have such strong opinions, it’s like they think it’s their family and are personally insulted at someone saying they don’t like a character!

Also the same people who post “Oh my God! Just seen Bob from Stranger Things in The Goonies movie! Can’t believe I’ve never noticed it before!” Uh, no tit Sherlock. Actors are in numerous films and TV shows. Who would have thought??

The OP said they had agreed a plan on how to fix it?

We had agreed but as I said in the original post, I’m being blanked, hence the throwaway rant/riddle. I’ll have to go elsewhere and learn my lesson. I’m glad to see everyone else’s Sunday is as riveting as mine 🥴

One of my partners friends acted inappropriately the other day when we were out. I chose not to address it at the time because you can’t have productive conversations when drunk but we’ve been busy ever since, had a family event yesterday. Today he had stuff on in the day and I have evening plans so we won’t be back together until later on. I’m hungover and tired and because I’ve been thinking of what I want to say in my hungover state I’m now 1000000 times more annoyed than I was at the time, so now I feel like my productive conversation is going to come across more emotionally than it needs to 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

I haven't seen any sparklers in the shops so thought I'd look on Amazon and checked the reviews to make sure they were OK. Came across this one

I swear these people need locked up. They think facebook is genuinely asking what they are up to, that amazon isnt sending every single customer the same email. Yes angela, jeffrey bezo himself would like to know how those sparklers are. Oh you want asked again after the wedding! Sure!
I absolutely have no patience for technophobes

Does anyone else feel really overstimulated, and then somehow super understimulated as a result? Everything in life atm feels dull repetitive and underwhelming. Weirdly I feel like social media is to blame in a way.

Society has become so hedonistic, over filled faces and plastic surgery in general becoming so normalised, fancy tiktok hyped restaurants with super decadent food and overly curated fancy decor, fashion trend cycles that move so insanely fast! Every feels so commercialised and fake nowadays. And everyone has such high expectations. Even dating, having kids, it’s all about showing off somehow. Just fake performative bullshit. The people I know in real life, it’s all like one big competition. And everyone seems depressed and unsatisfied with their lives.

I just feel like I’m trapped in a simulation somehow. Like I’m watching my life happen to me. My job is blah, my love life has been a series of meaningless ‘failures to launch’, I’ve never felt more hideous and unattractive and nothing seems to help. I travel, get to these beautiful hyped up locations and think ‘oh … is that it’. It’s like I’m waiting for a tiktok sound bite to play, ‘can we skip to the good part TRAAALAAALAALAAAH!’ but it never does. I buy the hyped up make up products and the cute outfits but I never feel good or worthy.

I’m not sure if I’m just depressed or if the superficial strains of modern living are to blame? But I feel miserable and frustrated and honestly wish I’d been born 30 years earlier so I could’ve been a young woman outside of this current era. I can’t live up the expectations and i feel like I can’t enjoy life.

There's a lot of fakery around and social media is definitely to blame. ☹

Come away from all forms of social media. You sound like you need a detox from all of it.
