My confession: I smoke weed like a lot of weed and have ever since I first joined the hobby. never disclosed shit, and I don’t feel bad about it. Nobody ever said anything and I have tons of good feedback. I know its a shitty thing to do but I guess I don’t really care #yolo. So I guess if you ever got a stanky weed doll you should probably say something so assholes like me don’t keep doing it

Rant: What happened to @dyka? Purchased something and took days to ship and when I finally get my items, they aren’t in the pretty rainbow packaging anymore but stuffed into a padded envelope. And for shipping, I paid $13 for it something that shipped from Kentucky. I understand if they couldn’t afford to do the pretty plastic envelopes, but say something. And for goodness sake, mail a person’s stuff in a bubble mailer!

wow ur all so right. No one has ever done a wide hipped girl with horns and fur before. It was 100% original and theres only one artist allowed to do it. your moral superiority is so sexy. i bet you have so many bitches.

Can someone fill me in the the current doll drama? I’m super lost (specifically magic mirr0r & cul0r)I stick mostly to vinyl dolls so I’m not in the loop

Nightmar3Banshee really out there calling people ‘Karen’ because they asked to see her feedback before buying from her? SMH

It’s not 1 anon being salty about the DD discord. Because I have bitched once on here about it, and then seen more posts that validated my experiences. So at least two people! There is the “in” crowd and the “not in” crowd. It’s that simple. Maybe you aren’t impacted by it but some people are.

Yumi getting taxed for buying n flipping trendy dolls is the most epic karma i’ve ever seen. Well deserved.

Everyone is ragging on elle’s lips but for me? It’s the eye shape. If i wanted to get one, I’d be taking a file to that upper lid.

I wish I’d gotten my grubby mitts on a mnf Shushu before Fairyland stopped selling them. It seems like no one is interested in selling theirs now or they add a premium to it for being discontinued. It’ll be a cold day in heck before I spend $700USD + shipping and fees on a gosh darn minifee.

after 8+months, i finally found a buyer. And while i didn’t lower the listed price, i did say it was negotiable, but the buyer didn’t try to negotiate and just paid the listed price :O

hi! this might be the wrong place to ask, but, i have a nice bjd i have never used that i’d like to give to somebody who like.. can’t afford a bjd but really wants to get into it. i saw you have a list of cheaper dolls, but i wasn’t sure if what i have really fits into that? do you have any advice for where i could go to like, find someone who’d want a doll like that?

A little vent. There’s some really talented seamstresses with nice ideas that I’d absolutely love to buy from if they didnt nearly exclusively work with cheap tulle. Im a seamstress myself so I get the appeal of tulle, its easy to work with and flows nicely. And the high quality stuff is very pretty. But to the trained eye its easy to see most dont actually use high quality fabric and its just so off putting to me. Especially when they charge big money for sub-par fabric when, for that price, they could have used good tulle or some nice habotai or lace. I would throw my money at them so fast just to have their pretty designs on my dolls without having to sew myself.

“I can’t believe someone would pay x for y” = if I can’t afford it, you shouldn’t want to buy it either because I don’t understand economics 101

Ok, so I lost a little touch with the hobby world, but fell into the Genshin Impact. I love this game, the characters would make beautiful dolls, the outfits are very intricate and fall into costume porn category. I love all the details on shoes, jewelry, hearpieces… Etc Is there someone out there who did a Genshin doll ?

One of the doll communities I lurk on seems like the sort of thing it would be fun to join in on but I’m also aware of times when drama has come up and the members have been particularly catty. I don’t want to name it since I’m sure most people enjoy it who are in it and I don’t want to start anything but the stuff I’ve seen has completely put me off. It’s not even the opinions or arguments that get me, it’s the fact that despite it not being a confession blog it seems to attract a lot of gossip and the prominent members seem to revel in it… okay, it may be that some of the drama I have a personal stake in, but these people can be so mean spirited about it and the whole reason I care about the drama is that I wish people would just be nicer to each other and more understanding rather than getting into catfights or talking about the latest “news”(read: drama, and no I’m not referring to IRL news here) like it’s a soap opera and not affecting real people. I mean I guess you need a break from real world politics and news (it’s why I started reading confession blogs- this is my “politics”) but I’ve realized it just gets so toxic. I guess I sort of expect the default for large doll spaces to be more… professional? But I guess people do talk. And I’m reading and posting on this blog, vent or no, so what do I know.

Saying black people are too poor to afford dolls really ain’t power the argument you think it is. Saying that Afrocentric doll sculpts are made expensive so that black people can’t buy them ain’t the power argument you think it is. Saying only non-black people can buy black sculpts, or dark resins ain’t the power argument you think it is. Saying or implying that black people are somehow “lower value” as collectors and are the “poor”-class of the hobby AIN’T THE POWER ARGUMENT YOU THINK IT IS.

Pom0apple is so toxic in how they interact on this blog, Dunno about elsewhere. Always so mean. I hope other people don’t follow in their footsteps. We should be kind to each other, like mature adults
