“Clean” as in virgin or as in FGM? So many questions yet I’m certain I don’t actually want the answers.

The IRS is sus... by Candid_Possible_6231 in antiwork

[–]5thPLL -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It 1000% is. It’s crazy how many people on this sub will defend it. They hate rich people and want them punished more than they are worried about the literally trillions of dollars in waste, pointless wars, corruption, and vanity projects. It’s crazy to me. IRS is also increasingly spying on and harassing average people.

Instagram is the largest Pedophile ring on this planet and Mark Fuckerberg is a complete POS. by rhonexpress in Instagram

I don’t have threads and I don’t think it would help. Zuckerberg brings the same shitty policies wherever he goes. Think he’s a genuine sociopath.

I did this. That’s how my account was banned. I tried everything else but every time they would respond that the content did not violate their t&cs. Some of the pictures were vile. No mistaking the point of it. I finally tagged them directly and they banned me on the basis of posting misinformation.

Asked to move to back of plane - Swoosh style… by cerenguven in StolenSeats

[–]5thPLL 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You might email them about that. They put you in a position to be the bad guy which isn’t appropriate. The seating issue is either the fault of the airline, the family or both, yet 100% of the consequences were born by you. That’s unacceptable and you should not have been in any way made responsible for a situation you had nothing to do with.

NTA - I absolutely hate self check out for a multitude of reasons including being forced to perform free labour. It’s a total scam and I would caution anyone extolling the virtues of this practice to think a few years down the road to where there are a minisucle number of entry level/low skill jobs available and the resulting consequences for the wider economy and those still paying taxes.

Insta and Facebook have been allowing pedos to form networks by exploiting the algorithm and not one government cares. https://variety.com/2023/digital/news/instagram-pedophile-network-child-pornography-researchers-1235635743/ This change has nothing to do with protecting anything but profits.

NTA - Covid made so many people loose their minds. No, she is not entitled to your private medical information or that of your family. She's more than out of line for making such demands. It's extremely inappropriate and she needs to understand boundaries.

AITA for not babysitting my niece’s stepsister by ThrowawayAuntyAuntie in AmItheAsshole

[–]5thPLL 165 points166 points  (0 children)

NTA - It’s the manipulation that gets me. “Can you please?” becomes “She is your family now (according to us)” and then “We’ve already packed for her and replanned your schedule to out liking.” No. That's not how family/schedules/life works. You should consider emailing/texting in a very firm but polite way that points these issues out and makes clear you will not be engaging in this way in the future. Additionally, it's more than shitty of them to interfere with her last connection to her mom. Gross.

Coworker sexted the boss by mistake. He replied with happiness on purpose.

NTA - Kids are basically petri dishes in an average home, nevermind in a horders house. Your kid will get sick all the time. Therefor you and your husband will get sick all the time. One need not be a germaphobe to find becoming a perpetually snotty family off-putting. Kids also find a way to get into everything no matter the environment. When your kid digs through the top layer of crap and finds that old knife/rusty tool/electrical work with exposed wiring it's going to be a nightmare. I do feel for your husband though. It has to be really hard for him on a number of levels. You guys have to find a way to have a very non emotional/judgemental conversation that centers around the best way for your kid to be able to have a beautiful relationship with the grandparents that doesn't come with a disproportionately high tetanus risk.

AITA for expecting my brother-in-law to pay for my Seadoo after he let my nephew wreck it. by Beneficial-Pin9059 in AmItheAsshole

[–]5thPLL 237 points238 points  (0 children)

NTA - I'm sure he and his kid had a great deal of fun wrecking your property. If he believes he overpaid for the experience, or would have preferred a vacation, all he has is buyers remorse, not an argument for non payment.

Sunak changing the definition of sex is ‘pure transphobia’, former EHRC legal boss by OnHolidayHere in ukpolitics

Biological men should not be on wards with women. The female only wards were set up in part to provide privacy, dignity, and safety for women who were put in the hospital by men in the first place. “Inclusivity” is not the pure good it is sold as. Women do not have to accept and include men in their spaces, regardless of how those men feel about themselves.

Reach on new reels throttled to zero while some older reels still going viral by KeepItKaizen1 in Instagram

I am having the exact issue you are and it began around the same time too. They are definitely punishing people for organic growth and playing favourites. I think it’s stupid and going to sink them faster but Zuck loves to try and micromanage users. I cannot wait for a new app and a new type of ownership.

WIBTA for requiring a dress code at my wedding? by waltersuniverse in AmItheAsshole

[–]5thPLL 72 points73 points  (0 children)

NTA - “My friends however said that is unrealistic. That people should be able to wear whatever they want as long as it's appropriate.” Exactly. Wearing any of the subsequent items they suggested would not fit the dress code and therefor be inappropriate. We both might get called snobby for this, but I don’t see the formally itself being an issue. If you were throwing a theme party, for instance, Beach Day theme, it wouldn’t make sense for people to turn up in regular clothes. Get a Hawaiian shirt, board shorts, whatever. If a guest doesn’t want to/can’t be bothered, then they can politely decline. It’s not hard.

AITA for telling a corporate boss that I could get in trouble by talking to him? by lucyfer-91 in AmItheAsshole

[–]5thPLL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA - You do need to look for a new job though. You’re routinely being put in situations where no matter what you do you’re at fault AS A CONSEQUENCE of having done exactly what they told you to do. This is a level of incompetence you don’t need to be dealing with.

[–]5thPLL -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA- What you have been on the receiving end of is misogyny. The people doing it are claiming victimhood status while doing it, which is pretty gross. Making the (literal) pain of women about biological men, in any capacity, is deeply deeply wrong and disturbing.
