I stuck a bunch of sliced beans into everclear that I diluted down to 50% ethanol. It has been sitting in a dark cabinet for a year and I shake it every month or so.

AITA for wanting to bring my cat back into my house after wife's late stillbirth?quote:My wife and I were expecting a child in October. We are in our early 30's and have been trying for a child for some time - due to character limits I won't get into details, but it has been difficult. I don't understand the "cat might be mean to baby" poo poo. It depends on the cat! One of my high school friends called me some years ago, all pissed, because she had decided to take her cat to the pound; she was pregnant with twins and knew the cat would hate babies around. Maybe she was right, but the cat was a old black ball of fluff, and the pound lady who received him had told her straight up he would be put down, because black cats have a hard time getting adopted even as kittens, and this one was old, had some health issues, and was clearly stressed out/angry. "I knew it was possible but I didn't need to hear it!" AITA for telling my parents they still don’t have a biological grandchild? quote:I have 3 adopted children, and my parents have so far been good grandparents to them. They’ve never mentioned to me or my husband, or to the kids, anything about having a problem that I adopted instead of having biological children.

I'm just confused on how the cops cared at all, if the husband gave his mum all the stuff? Or maybe the mother has the keys to the locked room in the back, which is explicit consent to access its contents? I'm really ignorant on this stuff and I can't even find answers to how it works in my own local laws.

Cowslips Warren posted:AITA for wanting to bring my cat back into my house after wife's late stillbirth? The cat thing is probably an overbearing first time mother. But toxoplasmosis may contribute to miscarriages, OP's wife is probably looking for external causes for what happened and needs therapy.

Where I live, if items are reported stolen, and I have the evidence that I bought them with my own money, and then the cops arrive to a place, and they find the exact same items, the person hiding the items is caught red handed. I'm sorry that cops where you live look at an obvious case of theft and say "Well, not our job, we gotta move on" And no, I still don't know where the console is, that is what the cops are trying to find out.

If there is a hint of melanin in the mom suddenly the cops will do *some* work, arguably. Sometimes cops do poo poo if there’s a personal investment of loving an Other over. Or gently caress, maybe just actually doing some work for once. Could be a rookie.

I still don't get it; the husband agreed to it / gave it to his mum. Maybe it's like Batterypowered7 said and separate finances etc, but how was it not the first words out of MIL's mouth when the cops pulled up, much less at any point during the whole rigamarole? She's a witch, but she had permission. Sorry maybe I'm overthinking it.

AITA for making my daughter go to her stepmoms xmas?quote:I (56M) am getting married to my lovely gf (54F) next year. My previous wife died 2 yrs ago in Jan 2021 from health issues. We had a daughter 23f. My daughter and late wife were incredibly close and it hit my daughter very hard. Me and my late wife knew it was going to happen soon so i have had time to grieve and when she actually died i wasn’t as affected by it. My late wife asked that i don’t stay alone forever and find someone, so i did.

Married people can still commit crimes against each other. Yeah, most cops won’t give a poo poo and will just say it’s a civil matter, but that’s because they don’t want to do their job, not because they’re right.

She's a witch, but she had permission. She could have said "OP's husband gave these things to me!" & that could be construed as permission, but that's more a defense to the allegation that she took them illegally rather than ironclad excuse. Given the call came from the original purchaser who had the receipts and the missing high dollar item, I'm not surprised the cops arrested her (per the story, of course). If it goes all the way to prosecution, permission from a spouse could be an effective defense to theft charges, depending on that jurisdiction's assumptions about community property & how the couple has treated separate purchases before.

By making the ps5 disappear, grandma either failed to play her hand, or went for the chaos dunk. Not getting rid of the ps5 would have given granny the chance to make OP look like a deranged and jealous woman and herself like the victim. Instead, grandma chose jail. But OP’s marriage is pretty much ruined.

Love the current title but this feels like a strong contender quote:I grew up in a fairly reserved country where licking your siblings face especially past the 20s is not normal. I like the implication that it is perfectly normal to lick your siblings faces before your 20s.

Vinny Possum posted:I need to fix what I caused from “divorce prank” She's not exactly telling on herself, but if the sheer idea that her husband would leave her has her screaming for the family gun to kill herself, the first step is that she needs to start seeing a therapist. Step 2 is to go down to Home Depot, head to the garden section, and buy a cinder block to whip at her terrible family.

I furiously hate pranks, and that lady has my sympathy - she definitely needs therapy. But the histrionic theatricality of asking somebody else for a gun to shoot yourself on the spot is darkly humorous to me. Like a scene from Mommy Dearest. “TINA! BRING. ME. THE.

Also I believe it is a problem that black cats photograph badly, because the individual detail is lost, so black kitties that need adopting get skipped over in favor of more camera-friendly cats.

Pookah posted:Also I believe it is a problem that black cats photograph badly, because the individual detail is lost, so black kitties that need adopting get skipped over in favor of more camera-friendly cats. But that way you get the wonderful fluffy void with a pair of eyes. It's a bit of a confirmation bias. Shelters think black cats get adopted less so data points that contradict that get dismissed as outliers. Poking around I found a study(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7597961/#:~:text=Entirely%20or%20primarily%20black%20cats,than%20cats%20of%20other%20colors.) which suggest the correlation is weak at best, but one thing I do notice is that they have a lot MORE black cats in their data. Whether those are common in general or more likely to be up for adoption for other reasons, that means more black cats will fail to be adopted even if the proportion is the same. edit: I thought I found multiple studies, but the "second" one looped back to the one I linked once I followed the trail to an actual paper.
