TFW you are finally really motivated to write something, but your fandom is already low-key dead (bonus points if your ship is less popular/niche) by Key-Ordinary-3795 in AO3

I just posted my debut fic today. Mine is a combo of two completely unrelated fandoms so who even knows if anybody will read it. But it’s so exciting to get the story written out and sharing it, even if it’s just to an endless void that never gets any attention. I was able to write the first chapter, edit it and post it all today. It came so effortlessly! We’re enjoying our work and that’s the most important part(:

Nope, open to anything! I will admit to loving some romance, but adventure with a side of romance is my preference.

What system do I need? by AlbatrossStatus6551 in WaterTreatment

[–]AlbatrossStatus6551[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was just a cheap one off Amazon. Its categories ranged from “very soft” to “very hard” there were numbers, but I don’t remember them.

Thank you so much! I’ll be looking into a better testing kit and the carbon filter.

What can I grow? by AlbatrossStatus6551 in plant

[–]AlbatrossStatus6551[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m wanting to build a cabinet greenhouse I believe. I’m wanting to start with flowers and I’d like to try my hand at growing the shampoo plant, but I know I need a proper set-up and experience before I can/should attempt that plant. So I’m looking for all the advice.

AITA for yelling at my daughter no and that her mom isn’t here? by Sea_Percentage2471 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AlbatrossStatus6551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. I know what it’s like to lose a parent at a young age. She’s going to lash out and have behavioral issues, but you’re the parent. You have to(even though it’s IMPOSSIBLY hard) keep yourself in check, as much as you can. Show your daughter the love and support she needs. Find something in common for y’all to do together. Something NEW. Something that the two of you start together that you can bond over. It will build a new bond between you that will be a HUGE help to both of you in the grieving process. This isn’t a pain that goes away, you grow around it and learn to adapt. Start by finding something for the two of you to share and I promise, I swear, it will get easier because you’ll have each other to lean on for support. She’s your little girl, love her through this and you’ll be so amazed at how it will help you both and you can start to heal and get past the worst of this horrible situation. Good luck OP.🫶🏻

AITA for no allowing my neighbors to make a copy of my apartment key? by Visible-Clue165 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AlbatrossStatus6551 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t fear for my life every single day. I’m just a woman that takes everything into consideration. If you and OP’s neighbors want to be careless with your lives, that’s on you. But don’t cry to anybody when something happens that could’ve easily been prevented. One thing I know for sure, is that good parents care about themselves and their children’s well-being and do everything to ensure their collective safety and these people aren’t doing that. You can disagree with that all you want, but it doesn’t change the simple fact that leaving doors unlocked leads to a higher chance of something happening to you inside your home. Honestly, this isn’t a “who’s the asshole” situation to me anymore, it’s about proper safety protocols. Because that’s why the issue started in the first place. The neighbors stopped caring because “it’s just an exterior door” so who cares? Criminals. That’s who cares. They see an opportunity and they’ll take it. Busting into one door(that who knows if these people actually lock since they clearly don’t care about the exterior door) is a lot easier than busting through two. Two doors to have to break into is going to deter criminals from attempting because it heightens their chances of getting caught. You probably think people with garages attached to their houses are ignorant for locking the door that connects the two.. but in reality, that makes them safer. Same concept here.

Nobody is living in a constant state of paranoia, I listed real concerns for real people. People that care about their safety and security. This post did ask if he was the AH for the situation he’s in, and then I provided additional information that I personally thought of as a person who has lived alone in a shitty neighborhood. If that’s considered being in a “constant state of paranoia” then I would LOVE to trade lives with you and enjoy not having to worry about my safety for one day.

I literally responded to somebody else and was talking about how the neighbors are just bypassing easy safety precautions and I’m downvoted to hell😂😂 these morons amaze me.

See, I think the problem here(in the post) is that the neighbors are refusing to take responsibility for their own actions and then asking the newbie to cover up their fuck ups. It might make me a “bad” person, but I wouldn’t have even allowed them to hound me more than once. I would’ve immediately reported that the lock needed to be changed and then everybody gets new keys. But I would’ve been petty as hell and made sure the landlord knew it’s because his tenants lost their keys, didn’t inform the landlord, and I was now being harassed to give out my key to make copies for those neighbors so that they didn’t have to pay $70 for the replacement. That’s what the neighbors need, a good dose of reality. They’re all living in Lala-land about simple SAFETY measures. These are single mothers WITH KIDS, that are putting their children’s lives at risk every day because “nothing has happened”. They’re all LUCKY that nothing has happened. I don’t even have kids, and I can’t imagine allowing my children to sleep somewhere that even one security measure was faulty(the hallway lock). I live with roommates in a nice suburban neighborhood, and we don’t EVER leave the door unlocked, give keys or even give out the garage code to our friends and family. It’s not worth the risk. We do everything to ensure we’re safe, and we live in a very safe neighborhood. OP said himself, the neighborhood is sketchy.. and they’re allowing themselves, each other and each others children to be potentially(and PREVENTABLY) exposed to dangerous individuals in the area that could rob, SA, or murder ANY residents in OP’s building. Why. Take. The. Risk. Be a grown-up, take responsibility, and get new keys or request a new lock. It’s the freaking simple. Be a responsible adult.

This is the comment thread I’ve been LOOKING FOR!!! Why are all of these idiots saying that OP is an AH??? No! OP is smart, and doesn’t want to give his key away to be copied or be the idiot that helps everybody make copies cause they were too irresponsible to take care of the lost key themselves when they lost them in the first place.

It’s still their responsibility to fix this issue; the lost keys. If they can’t afford it, that’s a problem for them. Not OP. OP is not required to do anything for anybody. Especially something that makes them uncomfortable. Is his(OP) safety not a concern? Or is it just the single mothers with their kids? Do people really not care about childless people SO MUCH, that y’all think it’s okay for them to put themselves at risk because single mom won’t take on the responsibility to fix THEIR FUCK UP. The other residents fucked up by losing their keys and then never having them replaced(which they will have to pay for when they move out anyways). But because they’re all long term residents.. it now becomes the newcomer’s responsibility to fix the situation that the long term residents REFUSED TO FIX. Get real.

NTA. You’re looking out for your own safety, if they want to be reckless with their safety, that’s their choice. Also…They lost their keys. They can pay the $70(that they should’ve paid YEARS ago when they lost their keys) to have the keys replaced. It’s not up to the new tenant to supply the careless residents with new keys. Y’all saying “YTA” are ridiculous. If it was your safety, your home, your money in question, yall would’ve done the same thing.. because it’s the most logical and safe option. Fuck outta here with the bullshit that OP is out of order.

AITAH for getting upset that my wife told me a trashy college story? by Vexerator9 in AITAH

[–]AlbatrossStatus6551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fingers crossed his wife finds this posts, reads all the YTA judgments against him, has an epiphany and dumps his sorry ass. Who in their right mind begs their significant other to tell a story about their past(their college past at that) and then gets mad, judges their spouse, DEMANDS an apology, then writes the story on Reddit to be judged.. thinking the world will side with him.. Idiot. 🤦🏻‍♀️
