Malachite_Dragon posted:Its kinda stopped being a meme at this point. People have called for both landlords (for the obvious) and renters (for giving money to the landlords) to go to the guillotine. If you make a single dollar more than the poverty line, you go to the guillotine. It's not funny anymore. Sounds like someone's neck is getting itchy.

An incel wouldn’t think that a stepdad would want to raise another man’s genetic offspring. value-brand cereal posted:I don't think the alcoholism and staying behind was the problem, so much as the lack of communication with the sisters AND the prior lack of compassion to other family members in medical situations. I wouldn’t call elder care emotional burdens. There’s an element of that but honestly it is just a straight up burden of time, money, and physical effort. The guy is just straight up leaving everything to the sister.

r/relationships: we finally get to have sexy time! Nebrilos posted:Why would stepson steal the necklace multiple times only to hid it in the house where OP could find it? Why didn't he immediately pawn it the first time he stole it? And why try to steal it while she is wearing it if all the other times he stole it while it was unattended? I don't understand. Because he either didn't have a buyer yet or hadn't planned to meet with them until later and thought he could get more than selling it at a pawn shop or couldn't get transportation to a pawn shop without involving OP. Because he's a loving trash idiot who hopefully OP can chuck in the dumpster where he belongs. Chef Boyardeez Nuts posted:In a similar emergency situation, my father would loving insist I stay behind and not waste the deposit. That's what I'd do too if I'd planned a vacation with a friend or loved one and was suddenly incapacitated long term in such a way I couldn't stay and enjoy it with them. It's not like they'd be performing my hip surgery themselves or I'd be in much of a state to enjoy their company in the hospital doped up to the eyeballs. I wouldn't want them to engage in performative martyrdom for busybody observers and show everyone how much they loved me by... not doing a fun thing I wanted them to do. That said, OP clearly sucks rear end for other unrelated reasons. therobit posted:I wouldn’t call elder care emotional burdens. There’s an element of that but honestly it is just a straight up burden of time, money, and physical effort. The guy is just straight up leaving everything to the sister. Even if you don't want to use the word "burden," doing this hospital liaison stuff is still definitely emotional labor which OP unsurprisingly leaves to a female relative due to the kind of person he is.

Slo-Tek posted:Hospitals during Covid are complete bullshit, and there is shockingly little contact allowed even by close relations. While there is clearly some uncontrolled alcoholism going on, if I did some drunk poo poo and got in hospital over it, I also wouldn't wish any of the rest of my vacation party to have to get a hotel in a different city and sit there waiting for visitors hours, when they couldn't do anything useful, and maybe not even be able to smuggle me booze. I really can see it both ways, but here’s the core problem: if my parent had a major injury and had to go to the hospital and I decided not to visit them, then they subsequently died, I would be unglued. It just isn’t worth the drat risk. It’s not about the fishing, it’s about the time spent together.

AITA for blowing up at my wife for going to her gender-reveal appointment without me?quote:My wife and I are expecting our first baby together, We made an appointment to find out the gender of the baby. To me, this is very important (I had hopes for a boy) unfortunately, the day of the dr appointment I had to attend my friend's birthday that I remembered last minute. I asked my wife if we could cancel the appointment and go another day but she looked shocked that I even considered canceling the appointment and going to my friend's birthday, I said I had no choice. She said canceling the dr appointment was off the table because these appointments are restricted to specific time and date and we can't miss it so she'll go alone. I told her no because that'd be selfish of her and besides this will ruin the news of finding out if the baby is a boy or a girl. She cut the discussion and told me to go to the birthday party. I did then later found out she didn't cancel the dr appointment and went with her mom. I came home seething and blew up at her. I started arguing with her about going behind my back and doing this without me. She said it wasn't her fault I prioritized a party over my child. I told her I didn't prioritize anything; she literally could've canceled and we would've went another day but clearly, she was trying to steer the fight to a direction where I look like the neglectful and irresponsible one. We fought some then she said I'm probably angry with her because it's a girl but I responded that she was wrong. She went outside the room claiming I was "stressing her out". now acts like I owe her an apology on top of everything else but I feel upset and like I was decieved by her.

Did I read that right? He just grabbed her phone from her "teasingly" and held on to it until he was satisfied she was done cleaning? Phones are normally close to $1k in cost that's literally into the grand theft felony territory. It's pretty clear he doesn't think rules or boundaries apply to him and that TA who refused to tell him where she was probably though he was going to stalk her or something.

Jesus, I swear I came here thinking I was somewhat justified in my frustration but I was wrong it seems. Although I just wanna point out that I did not just go to the party without telling my wife and having a discussion with her first. Also the friend lives 2 hours away so I had to leave at 2 and the appoitment was at 4. I did not know she went and I would've appreciated it if she at least was upfront with me about what she did. She could've said she was going anyway but instead told me to go to the party and had me thinking she was going to cancel and reschedule. quote:I don't think rescheduling the appointment meant that I prioritized a party over my child. Besides that my wife's final words before I left were "fine, go" then I find out that she went with her mom. I would've skipped the party had I knew she was going to go anyway.

Re: necklace thief stepson, I assumed he was doing something creepy with the necklace and deliberately leaving it to be found.

I wonder if it might actually be legitimate kleptomania. Where it's just about the compulsive need to steal rather than to actually get anything from it? It would explain why he never tried to sell it or keep it somewhere out of reach.

To be clear, when I said emotional burden I meant it's pretty emotionally devastating to be alone and watch your parent / family member go from ordinary active life to the hospice and eventual death. I don't know if the Aunt was available for mutual support when the mother was entering the hospice, much less the whole situation. It just sounds like the OP brother sucks at caring about anyone but himself. Elderly Care is difficult and there is such thing as caretaker burn out when one doesn't have a support network. But elderly people themselves aren't a burden, it's important to give the best possible care for such a vulnerable group in society, and I apologize if I wasn't clearer about that.

I hope this isn't too many for a single post. spoilers for mild mentions of ableism and non sexual child abuse? It's nothing explicit but just to be on the safe side. Posted byu/daigwettheo AITA For not allowing family to see my daughter until after they explain why she wet herself? quote:My daughter is seven and autistic, partially verbal. During high stress situations she goes mute. Anyway, she went to my sisters house all happy on Friday. It was a whole family get together, I had to run snd deliver some packages, I was gone for like half an hour. Posted byu/sleepycactua AITA for napping in the car because my parents are fighting? It bothers the neighbors. quote:I live in a suburban subdivision, it's a relatively wealthy area and people can be a little uptight about their houses and be kind of busy bodies. gently caress the neighbors, imo. Man I wish this kid had a safer place to rest. This sounds like hell. This wa sposted 2 years ago, hence the quarantine thing. I do like people in the comments suggesting how to do this safely. Ah, solidarity. AITA for fishing when my vegan cousins are visiting quote:Alright so, my vegan cousins are visiting from California in June, and before you object, we live on a rural farm and they're following all hygiene protocols when traveling so virus transmission is slim to none. But anyway, since we live on a farm, there's a lake on the land we own and I like to go fishing there every once in a while. Now, I've told them this so they know, but they've said stuff like, "If you fish, we're not coming", and "You abuse fish by fishing". The thing is, I stop after I catch one fish, and I only do it like 3 times a week, so it's not like I'm poaching an elephant every day. So yeah, AITA for fishing while they're here? This reminds me of that story where the OP's and their girlfriend was going to visit hawaii but the GF was 'allergic' to fish and wanted everyone in the apartment building to not cook fish, lest she smell it.

The "Please stop calling me a rapist and a stalker" boy just won't quit Posted in r/advice as the title and question What can I do to ask for forgiveness and minimize damage? quote:Thanks for caring about my mental health I guess. I'm mostly upset that they're believing her lies because I know the truth and I came to terms with it. I want to stay until I get the best advice because I don't think I have everything yet but then I'll let it go. quote:Don't see how considering it's an appliance and not a part of her body. And she could have asked and I would give it back. But that doesn't matter because that's not what I'm asking advice for. I know I was an rear end in a top hat, I accept it, we covered that. I didn't assault her. quote:If I go to the counselor and say shes telling 100% the truth, then I'm the liar because they're saying I was sexually violent against her and I know I wasn't and I wont say that I was. quote:She probably did at some point is what I'm saying. I'm not careful with my body acting like I have glass bones so sometimes I bump into people or things or whatever, and most people are probably the same. I could say that she touched me accidentally passing flasks or notes or something and she can't dispute it because I say it happened and she doesn't remember. I have not written 100 posts but people aren't listening and I can't even argue on the AITA post anymore and I'm too tired to argue here. Point is it wouldn't bother me if she touched me accidentally because I know it's an accident, and she thinks it's malicious from me. quote:I touched her back but we're wearing lab coats so I could have touched her butt by accident because her coat is so shapeless. I think just saying 'move' is rude. And some of the original quote:I explained this already. It was poorly worded in the post because I had to cut things out but I meant I was happy she was actually smart because I was worried she wouldn't be based on the way she talked and dressed, and it loving sucks to have a stupid lab partner. It's barely better than having no lab partner, which is the poo poo I'm dealing with now. quote:I meant she should know that guys talk like that and that it's not targeted to her or supposed to single her out. I did say a few things that singled her out and I accept that but most of it was just general and nothing to do with her. To say I'm sexist is simply not true. I treated her like I would treat a male lab partner, but instead I was supposed to pretend like she never had/heard of sex before in her life. Got it. quote:But she's not telling the truth, she's telling people I threatened her with violence and touched her rear end and poo poo that I absolutely did not do. Just because some of what she's saying is true doesn't mean everything is. It's not black and white like that, I accept I'm an rear end in a top hat but she's trying to harm me now and talking poo poo about me to my friends and people who control my future. quote:I never said anything about sex with choking. It's not my fault how she interprets it, but I wont make jokes like that again because I get how they are inappropriate. quote:We were in a tiny loving room, working together on the same project. How am I supposed to avoid touching her in that situation? Why do they even let girls have male lab partners if this is such a common and scary thing for them? Like I said, I get that I'm an rear end in a top hat but her expectations are unrealistic. If I need to get past someone and I don't want the to drop the expensive equipment, I'm going to touch them to let them know I'm there. If I'm taking a beaker from someone, our gloved hands might touch. Gasp! quote:I guess I can see that she might just laugh to be polite. I'm not actually self centered I'm just worried about my grades because I'm supposed to graduate at the end of this semester and if she ruins my GPA because of this, I'm screwed for any postgrad program. I don't think it's fair that she can claim sexual harassment because we were in a room alone together and I made some jokes. Our program is mostly guys so she should be used to that situation by now and realize its not dangerous, or just tell them she doesn't like those jokes. I did flirt with her a bit before I knew she had a boyfriend but now I'm worried she could take this further. If I went to a counselor, could they help me tell my side of things in case she tries to twist things?
