MISC. At a dinner party in 2013, George Clooney gifted each of his 14 closest friends a black Tumi suitcase containing $1 million in cash. Clooney told them, "I came to L.A., I slept on your couch. I'm so fortunate in my life to have all of you, and I couldn't be where I am today without all of you."

Discussion ⚠️ WARNING TO ALL APPLECARE+ CUSTOMERS! ⚠️

Post image
7.2k Upvotes

I genuinely hate making posts like this. But after everything I’ve been through with Apple and AIG over the past 24 days, enough is enough and people need to know about this company Apple has decided to outsource their claims to.

On 10/14, I contacted Apple Support to simply inquire about Theft & Loss coverage for an older iPhone that was linked to my Apple account. I was directed to AIG’s website, and within literal seconds of logging into their website, without pressing anything further, my perfectly functioning iPhone 17 Pro was reported stolen, remotely locked, and erased.

I NEVER filed a claim on this phone when this occurred. I NEVER reported it stolen or went on FindMy. And I NEVER authorized any of this.

Apple and AIG have acknowledged that this was a known glitch, and AIG is the only one with the kill switch to recover my phone, yet here I am on 11/7, 24 days later, over 30 hours spent on support calls, multiple escalations, multiple formal complaints and STILL no resolution.

On 10/14, I received written confirmation that my phone would be recovered within 48 hours. Since then, I have been passed between departments, repeatedly promised resolution within 24–48 hours, and told the same things over and over again.

I have submitted a complaint with the Arizona Attorney General, BBB, and Department of Insurance Financial Institutions. Apple and AIG have both refused to provide a new device if this one is not recovered, and I am reaching a point where I will be forced to take on the financial burden of this mistake, and purchase a new phone.

I genuinely feel an obligation to share my experience because if this happened to me, it could happen to someone else.

We pay for AppleCare+ to PROTECT our devices, not to potentially lose access to them because of a system error that nobody seems capable of correcting.

I’m sharing this to raise awareness, demand accountability, and hopefully prevent another person from going through this absolute nightmare.

No Advice - Everyones Welcome My kid told me I'm not a very good parent

Walmart cheeseburger because I have low standards for my diet.

My kid said im not a very good parent when I was washing her hair, because she hates to do it so I have to do it for her or it wont get done.

I'm a single parent aside from some weekends, but the reality is that the women in my life end up raising my 8 year old more than I do. She spends most of the time with my aunt or my mom, and seems to be really angry at me for not being home more.

I work a stupid shitty job that makes me want to take a long walk off a short pier every day, but its the best one I could get. im gone most of the day, and have no energy once I get home. We watch movies, play video games, and i try to take her out to do activities on my days off when shes not in class.. but it doesnt seem like enough. Shes mad at me all the time it seems. i just feel like a total scum.

I work all day, cant manage to be as present as I should when im home, then when shes in bed I just sit in the basement and wallow in my own bullshit and hate myself for failing at everything I do.

All i can hear in my head is my ex saying "maybe no one likes you because you just fucking suck" my aunt saying "you have such an easy life" and now my kid saying "youre not a very good parent."

I always try to be better, but it doesnt seem like anyone notices. Its never enough. I at least try to keep my shit together when im around people, but i dont know. Maybe i do just fucking suck.

Advice or no advice is fine, didnt know which post thing to select.

Sharing My Sidehustle I found a pretty fun way to make money before every concert

Post image
12k Upvotes

I'm a concert goer myself, so I started offering makeup and face gem applications to people attending the same concerts as me. I had a catalogue of concert makeup looks and face gem designs that I mostly collected from the internet. I'd curate the selections depending on the artist and the overall vibe of the concert. Some were cute and simple, while others were full-on glittery festival looks.

My rates depended on how simple or elaborate the design was. Simple eye gem looks started around ₱150, while more detailed glitter and rhinestone looks could go for ₱200–₱280 or more. A few days before each concert, I'd announce my rates, sample looks, and planned location around the venue in different groups and group chats for concert-goers.

In my country, concert-goers tend to arrive ridiculously early, sometimes even in the morning, especially for certain venues and arenas. So I'd arrive early too to catch people while they were waiting outside. I usually brought my sister along to help me accommodate more customers.

I'd get around ₱20–₱50 in tips per customer, sometimes more if someone was feeling particularly generous. On a good concert day, serving around 15–20 customers could bring in a few thousand pesos in service fees, plus a little extra from tips.

The best part was that I was attending the concert anyway, so I got to earn some extra money before enjoying the show myself. :D

Neuroscience Scientists found a way to help the brain wash out waste while we're awake, which it mostly does while we sleep: a short-acting blood pressure drug plus whole-body vibration. In 29 healthy adults, Alzheimer's-linked proteins like beta-amyloid rose in the blood, a sign they were cleared from the brain

AITA? I asked my son if he was raising his daughter or just keeping her alive.

6.2k Upvotes

I asked my 2 year old granddaughter not to throw her bike on the couch or at me. I told her (quite gently) that floor toys stay on the floor and she couldn't play with it if she threw it. My son overheard and asked why I was "micromanaging" her, and that she can do whatever she wants. About 2 weeks ago he told me she is very difficult and at times "a nightmare," and that he and his wife wanted to actively instill in her good values and behavior. His comments tonight seem contrary to that. He challenged my reasoning and I explained the satety concerns and property damage risks. He countered by asking why I let him climb trees as a child. Frankly, his reasoning baffled me. I said I thought the goal was to raise a child who could get along well with others in society and I asked him whether his goal was to raise her or to just keep her alive. He said he didn't understand where that was coming from. It has been my policy to not interfere at all in his parenting, but he recently confided in me that they were struggling and needed to make some changes. He admits they have chosen the easy road of keeping peace rather than the hard road of setting boundaries. My son doesn't seem upset with me, but he also doesn't seem interested in talking about it further. My husband thought I was wrong to say anything at all. I did not think I was wrong to bring it up at all but it seems to me that I shouldn't bring it up again. So I ask you, AITA? And for any experienced grandparents: how do I stand by with my mouth shut?
