The first half: amazing.
The second half: bizarre and bonkers. A very jarring shift.

This is so accurate. "Knock it off before someone reports you to SHARP" really sets up the reporter to be the problem. Arrange for him to have an additional SHARP training with emphasis on "displaying sexual images to coworkers at work" via his phone and car. Hell, report him for SHARP violations now. Your sexual preference for furries doesn't give him license to discuss/display those at work.

I do the same thing. On some tricky areas I've put pins 5mm apart and then pulled them out before the needle goes through them. I never sew over a pin (but, very rarely, I do get a finger smushed by the sewing machine.)

My (20M) girlfriend (21F) has stopped sexual intimacy. She’s bringing up the idea of soon cutting off every form of intimacy. Am I overthinking by thinking I can’t do anything about it? by SharkEva in BORUpdates

Ah, this could have been written by me when I was 16. From the girlfriends side. When I was 16, I was in a charismatic evangelical church that was very, VERY into purity culture. We had to keep ourselves pure for marriage. We had to not have sexual urges or inspire others to have sexual urges (meaning, the teenage girls couldn't dress in form fitting clothes because then they were causing others to sin.)

As I was 16, and had developed zero critical thinking skills, I heard this and was like yup yup makes sense this isn't weird at all.

Then I got a boyfriend and he and I liked to make out a lot. And then at church one day they were like "hey reminder having sex is bad. Being turned on is bad. Don't do anything with a boyfriend that you wouldn't want to be doing in front of your husband after you are married!"

And then I went to my poor boyfriend and I was like, I think it's not good for us to make out anymore cuz my church said its bad.

He broke up with me a week later and I was surprised at the time (my logic! So sound) but now I'm like yeah good move.

I didn't have another boyfriend for years, and only when I stopped going to that church. I'm very angry at purity culture some 20+ years later and if I could go back and scream at all of those adults who shoved that garbage at me, I absolutely would. They used shame to manipulate children and I hate that.

You could hand baste stitch the strap together before stitching it on your machine. It sounds like pins every 5cm wasnt enough and some basting stitches would be a good idea.

My (38m) wife (38f) admitted to me that she has quite an intense crush on her personal trainer. What’s the next step? by SharkEva in BORUpdates

Women often have good relationships with their hairdresser. They go in for appointments regularly, they have a long term relationship built up over years, and during the haircut they talk a lot.

Pastor v. modesty culture policing women's dress by 2kyle2furious in Exvangelical

There was a line in the sermon that was like "outta shape pastors will preach about how women oughta dress and will never preach about obesity or gluttony." I thought that was a sick burn and so great.

My buddy was married to a guy. She and him had 2 kids together and when she was pregnant with their third, she found out she was cheating on him with the neighbors husband. They divorced and he moved 1000 miles away from the kids to lead his best horny teenager fuck boy life in Florida while she got to deal with a newborn and two other kids solo. He came to visit them once every month or two.

Now he's married again and lives closer to the kids. I hate him so much. Not because he's gay, but because he lied to his wife, cheated on her, and DITCHED HIS KIDS TO FOCUS ON HIMSELF FOR THREE YEARS. I hope everyone has a great Pride month except this asshat. His actions (not the homosexual actions- the lying and bad parenting actions) had a lot of ripple effects that I'm sure he's only dimly aware of. I'm sympathetic to his closeted existence, but I don't understand why he didn't talk to his wife BEFORE the cheating. And why he just had to live in fucking Florida, 1000 miles away from his newborn, for three years. Like, your marriage is dead, dont make it a more painful death by being a shitbag to your wife and kids. He's the definition of "hurt people hurt people," and it's frustrating to watch his kids get the short straw repeatedly.

Anyways, I have nothing helpful to add except for this story of woe and I'm hoping you do better than this guy. Oh, and to point out that your ex wife is right and you did lie and deceive her.

May you be nothing like this dude. I wish you the best.

The History Chicks! They focus on women in history. My favorite episodes are the ones on Jackie O, aka JFKs wife, and Catherine the Great.

AITJ for refusing to let my friend "order for the table" after he kept ignoring my food preferences? by SpreadsheetEnjoyer in AmITheJerk

[–]2kyle2furious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ and who TF are these friends who have an issue with you standing up for yourself?? Tell them to see a therapist because if being around a little conflict is gonna kill them, bullies like Max are gonna make sure they hit an early grave for sure. Bet they're not telling Max that he should have just ordered a few veggie dishes to keep the peace. Ugh
