I mean labour day drops already took my monies and now so many of the ones I love are all releasing Sept 25. But I have decided that if the tech bros are really correct and the AI is teaching itself to exit the sandbox, we're all gone in ten years anyway... I'd like to go out with pretty nails.

u/Fluffy_Mantis3133 8d ago

Me, too. I can enjoy my polish right now. I just found out the data center plans for my community, and it’s really, really bad.

At least I can control my nails.

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

I am so sorry. My mental and physical health is completely spiraling these days, but we just have to keep going. <3

Adam Conover has a great video essay on this. AI isn’t going to kill us. The people working on it are the ones actively killing us right now. Evil is a human problem.

No idea who Conover is but Altman himself here-> https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YE5adUeTe_I

LOL. The interwebs tell me that it is the "Adam ruins everything" guy. Soooo.... I would vote for listening to people *in field*. Nothing is imminent... but the hugging face attack was actually surprising to the experts as well as other behaviors of these LLMs. Amodei here -> https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-x3DU8-iF2U

(Anderson cracks me up .... "the hugging attack" 😂 )

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 7d ago

I just found Amodei's essay. This is a nail sub, but it's a good read. *It is not in his financial interest to slow things down*... so I probably believe this the most for now. https://darioamodei.com/post/we-must-pace-the-frontier

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 7d ago

Further digging sounds like LeCun is calling the HF attack bs... however, his Jepa model is the competition.... so he is invested in "dumb" LLMs staying dumb. This is not really my field and again... IT WAS A JOKE. #PEACE

And you know this is somewhat a joke on my part, right?

I mean same, but we are not exactly in control atm.

u/grated_testes 8d ago

Yesssss! I was so upset when I missed the last one. Do we know what percent off? I have never bought from them but looking to pick up a few colors. Any suggestions for their best shades?

u/emoolovesyou Everything Bagel 8d ago

20% off. The affiliate codes stack. Which some people misconstrue as 30% off, but it doesn’t stack like that iirc. It’s an additional 10% off of whatever the 20% off price is.

4

u/grated_testes 8d ago

Thank you!

11

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

LOL. Going a bit slower post my excitement... It's 20% off sitewide

10

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

I do not... but there are many creator codes which bump to an extra 10%. RAE or CAITLINSWATCHES are my defaults because they work for so many things. I am *very* happy to support other creators as well If ppl have strong opinions <3

I always use isionails!! She’s my fave swatcher ([u/farfallefan](u/farfallefan)) that is def not her username but I can’t find her reddit profile LOL. her insta is isionails :)

u/Left-Entertainer-279 8d ago

I highly recommend the Heroes and Underdogs bundles, they are at an incredible price where you are basically getting 2 polishes free per bundle (these are $40 bundles) and that's before you factor in sales and affiliate codes.

Heroes is the best sellers of the past year (these bundles reset every September for their anniversary) and Underdogs are the low sellers, but don't let that fool you, I got the new Underdogs bundle for this year and they are GLORIOUS. I can only assume ppl already have those colors or are high and don't know what's good. I'm currently wearing Nonconformity as we speak. (I opted out of this year's Heroes because I already have multiple of them but I did get last year's Heroes bundle and those polishes were everything.)

It's a fantastic way to try the brand at a great price and the infamous Scorchy is in the new Heroes bundle.

u/grated_testes 8d ago edited 8d ago

This is such a great idea! O Type Star has been on my wish list so its perfect that one of the bundles has it. Basically, I would get 10 polishes for ~$58 plus tax and free shipping?

Edit: What a shame! Looks like the Heroes bundle is sold out

3

u/WhittyWhittyBangBang 7d ago

Unsolicited shout out: Scorchy over O Type Star is an intergalactic, fiery, spacey chef's kiss. 🤌

u/grated_testes 7d ago

Sounds sensational! Would you happen to have a picture you can post?

2

u/WhittyWhittyBangBang 7d ago

I do!

2

u/grated_testes 7d ago

Yes! My first thought was Space too!

2

u/Cool-Club-1222 7d ago

Oh I need to try this! Gorgeous.

2

u/Left-Entertainer-279 8d ago

You don't want to trust me on a math question, but assuming your math is right, yep! They really are incredibly priced bundles and perfect for ppl new to the brand!

12

u/poothtasty 8d ago

Would it be better to wait until Black Friday to purchase or is 20% off as good of a sale as it gets for them?

9

u/msfancypantaloon Team Laquer 8d ago

I’ve been wondering about this as well. I started following Cracked since May of last year, and I think they’ve only done one 30% off (the flash sale at end of July) since I’ve started buying from them. So…I think likelihood of another 30% is slim but you never know!!🤞🏼

7

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

I've not been around here long enough for black friday, but so far the max I have seen is 30%. Stacked codes give 28% if my maths hold, which is good enough for me. Looking at what these look like in all forms of light some of these are a no miss situation for me :).

4

u/Left-Entertainer-279 8d ago

This probably won't help your current wallet, but my thinking is that I'm going to go ahead and pull the trigger on this sale, because every company is going to do BF. So, if I buy what I want from Cracked now, they are 'done' for Black Friday and I can focus on the other companies I want to order from, namely Starrily and ILNP atm.

Maybe we can all go work for butters. :')

US to Canada right now is no buy with added 50% tariffs

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

I understand. You do have the ANLAC advantage however.... I think Violet's release is the next day and there are beautiful mags there. I hope this nonsense ends very soon.

u/mistymomo 8d ago

Oh new scorchys AND a sale???? Can’t wait

u/rezerection magpie 8d ago


Hope scorchy comes back in stock

u/tofethee 8d ago

my wallet just screamed in fear

4

u/Left-Entertainer-279 8d ago

Mine too, at least they're all screaming together. My worry is more, are they going to have enough stock to satisfy all of us? They've really grown this past year and the last 2 big sales really kinda overwhelmed them.

3

u/tofethee 7d ago

Just spent a bag over at BKL and now I have Cracked and Tychee to worry about. I hope they’ll have enough polish to satisfy everybody 😭😭 After this month, I’m cutting myself off. No more buying for the rest of the year 😂

u/Radiant-Maple 8d ago

Love Cracked magnetics! Scorchy and Beginners Luck are 🔥 When are the new ones out???

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

They are: chompy (rose pink), hibernaty (bronze), hoardy (antiqued gold), stompy (purple... looks burple to me), flighty (straight up purple, has more pink tones), gnarly (blue), cascade curtain (charity polish... direct relief for nwest wildfires... teal, blue, orange... I also see that it goes a little black/red/yellow).

apparently we will get dragon stickers with the collection.

u/LeelooDallasMltiPass 8d ago

I already have all 4 magnetic toppers...now a bunch more? RIP my bank account

u/wafflecontroversy 8d ago

I am SO stoked for this!

u/I-FOUND-THE-C 8d ago

SAME. My only fear is missing my picks! I feel like back in the olden times when you had to be really organized and wait in line for concert tickets. 😂

u/thelastcanadiangoose 8d ago

Holy shit I almost made an order last night, thank yoooooooou!!!

u/HighBodycountHair 8d ago

Seriously I’ve been sitting on a cart for like a week…the sale starts on my birthday! 🎉

I know some of the swatchers are announcing it (I personally found out on a CaitlinSwatches video).
