Is my(28F) BF(28M) misogynistic, mainly in the way he greets me?quote:Hey guys, using a throwaway since BF is on reddit. A little background info, I have been with my BF for almost a year and he has been wonderful and we are even looking to move in together. He gets along great with my parents and my friends except for one, who we will call Sally, who isn't exactly friendly towards my BF. I've known Sally for about 2 years now and she occasionally comes to our friend group hangouts and in general she is very liberal/progressive especially on feminist topics which I do support. Now my BF is definitely more central/libertarian side when compared to some of my more liberal friends but it's never really come up when he's hung out with them and you couldn't even tell unless you asked. Added para break

AITA for purposefully changing the picture submitted to my dad's church to include me?quote:So I (23F) was born when my dad and mom were in their early/mid-twenties. At that time, my dad was a wild partier that made a ton of bad decisions. So after a few casual hookups, there I was. Mom and Dad weren't exactly close so I ended up doing most of the year with her and summers with him. Around the time I was probably 4-5 years old, Dad found religion and went back to his Baptist roots. Which was great for him!

Born-agains are the absolute worst Christians, even moreso than Evangelicals. It's like they look at the Bible and manage to weaponize it even more than most conservative factions, and that's a fairly impressive feat Also very Christ-like to call your daughter a bastard and then scream at her because your church found out your secret.

The conservative factions yeah Methodists, Episcopalians and UCC are generally pretty cool and chill, and there are definite liberal sects, but a lot of guys become "born again" because they're weak men who covet power and they see it as a way to control someone who's not them, and a lot of women do it because they're ashamed of their past and want to "atone" for being promiscuous in the past

I just can't imagine being like "after loving up my life, several other people's lives, and starting some lives in the process, I've attempted to right the ship of my soul. So none of that poo poo happened, any dependences or debts I created during that time are null, and I am not a hypocrite for bringing down brimstone on anyone who sins an iota of my own sins."

Well see that's cause I am FORGIVEN and they are whores who are not. Jesus saves straight-acting white men and grants them the power of never seeing themselves as sinners ever again. AITA for wanting to tell my brother's fiancée about the tracking app he secretly installed in the new phone he bought for her? quote:Pretty much the title, My f22 brother m27 is currently engaged to his fiancèe f25. he bought he a new phone for valentine's and asked my boyfriend who's trained in computer and software to install a hidden tracking app on the phone so his fianceè won't see it or notice. I overheard them talking and when I entered the room they went silent. I waited til my brother left then talked to my boyfriend, he denied having this conversation with my brother first then, admitted to installing the app on the phone. Yup stay outta my business that is super shady because it's not your business. Tell her and break the gently caress up with your bf. And check your own phone.

Ghost Leviathan posted:Christianity really is synonymous in practice with 'straight white men should receive no consequences for their actions', isn't it? Only the good consequences! There's a distorted view of fairness (you get what you deserve and you deserve what you get) coupled with a cultivated sense of persecution that runs very deep in US conservative Christianity The distortion is this: Jim believes in Jesus so he is a good man. If a good thing like a raise at work, or his wife having a healthy baby "happens" to Jim, he deserves it because he loves Jesus and is a good man. If a bad thing "happens" to Jim, like being fired (for using slurs at work) or his children are taken away by the state (because he abuses them), well, that's obviously the persecution of a good Christian man!

sephiRoth IRA posted:Yeah, during grad school and my postdoc I would occasionally hit 60, 40-50 was regular (minus one truly heinous set of experiments where I slept in the lab for two days taking 60min timepoints, that was a 100+ week) When I went to school, the rule of thumb repeated by most teachers was that you should expect to spend 3 hours out of class for every credit hour, so a standard load of 15 credits would be 15 hours of class and 45 hours of reading/work/etc. 60 hours of school plus a job would have been a nightmare. This was rarely actually the case, realistically it was 1:1 at most outside of exams or project due dates. A few semesters I took 20 credits and also worked ~20 hours a week, those were busy but by no means unmanageable. This may not be accurate for engineering or hard science students!

Well it sounds like you have some kind of urge to take responsibility for your actions. It's not for you, then. The actual selling point of "born again" schools is that you get to hit the reset button on life; you get to be a judgmental prick because you have retroactively never done wrong, you can safely disregard your past because that was your once-born self, a different person, and you get to be real indignant when people point this out, and nothing fuels convictions like indignity.

When I think of "Christ following man" I do tend to think of people being really lovely to their kids so the dad's behavior does check out. The irony is that evangelical christians love comparing how awful they were prior to accepting Jesus into their hearts so this fuckhead could have already been regaling his congregation with tales of his wild partying and how once he had his daughter god spoke to him and he accepted Jesus and raised her

Yeah, I would have called his bluff and told him to return it. I am betting it would have been a "well it was broken so I threw it away so I don't have it anymore" excuse. Edit: Yeah, reading more comments from the OP, he totally said he threw it away. Man, even giving him the most benefit of doubt, the guy he was an idiot who immediately broke a console and then threw it away instead of trying to get it fixed. edgeman83 fucked around with this message at 17:12 on Feb 14, 2022 |

It comes from Care and Feeding, but reads like AITA. quote:This is going to sound petty and on the childish side, but here goes. I cannot stand the way my parents are with me and my sister. By every measure, I am more successful than my sister “Jane.” I earn a six-figure salary, as does my husband, we own our home, and we are planning to have a baby in the coming year or so. Jane works for a charity which, while laudable, pays next to nothing and affords her hardly any free time. Her layabout wife “works from home” selling “art” online (little cartoon drawings) and earns even less. They rent a tiny apartment and, frankly, don’t seem to be going anywhere in life. On the one hand, I get it. I'm less of a disaster than most of the people in my generation in my family. Because I need less, I get less attention. Because I'm not willing to be a bank, I get next to none. But she also seems so whiny and insufferable that I get why she's not the favorite. And those gifts from sister and wife sound really thoughtful.
