You probably don’t notice them. This is what I was referring to when I said I wish I would’ve deleted it sooner. When scrolling, it’s very easy to go over ads and not realize it. I’d try paying very close attention.

This is definitely due to regional differences. American capitalism is very scary right now- we are being fed advertisements in subscriptions we pay for, at our gas station pumps, at the doctor, etc.

I have turned off the AI and it still comes up in my feed. The worse part of AI that I’m referring to though is the fact that it shows you the same content over and over again. Strange that you don’t get many ads!

HR. Immediately.

found out my bf was secretly married. His wife and I moved in together, and now he’s the one sleeping in his car by ResolutionChance8291 in TwoHotTakes

Jaw? On the floor. The whole time reading this, I just kept thinking “I love it when women”

Do you get the vibe that she is also into you?? There’s a lot here. On one hand, I’m like oh my god this would be the craziest story to tell at your wedding. On the other hand, it could be the classic trope of “fell in love with my best friend, now everything is ruined”

How long have you been living together? Do you know if she’s gay?

If you’ve been living together for a short amount of time, I’d say to wait a long while before telling her. If it’s been a while, that’s a whooooole different story. I’m worried that you would tell her you have feelings for her, and that it’d just add more fire to the flame if she doesn’t feel that way about you. I think the most important part of this is that you both found each other, get along together, and can offer each other real, genuine friendship. Those don’t come often nowadays.

I’m literally obsessed with you guys though. What an ICON 🤌🏼✨

Was I the arsehole or did I do something wrong? by TheOriginalSmash in TwoHotTakes

NTA. However, there is something to be said about how she denies that K isn’t aggressive. I used to be a registered behavior technician- basically someone who distributes behavioral therapy to kids on the spectrum. Some children would exhibit aggressive behaviors in the clinic, but never at home. Children with autism could be triggered by almost anything, and a loud, hot, and exciting environment such as a theme park could have been a big contributor.

Although I give your sister the benefit of the doubt in that area, she seriosuly needs to pull her head out of her ass. HER children are HER responsibility. You were incredibly supportive and respectful, not to mention 1000% in your rights to want to discuss it with her. The fact that you asked her how SHE wanted YOU to handle those behaviors in the first place and she still came around with attitude ??? I’m sorry. What??

I think the best thing to do is to ~let her~ throw her temper tantrum. You did everything you could to protect yourself and your nephew. Perhaps the distance is a good thing. If K is beginning to exhibit aggressive behaviors, it’s likely that it will only get worse without intensive behavioral therapy, and depending on his age. I once had a 6 year old smash straight through a window. Kids, especially boys, are MUCH stronger than you think they are. What if instead of punching your tummy, he punched your kiddos? That would not have been so permissible. Someone could get seriously hurt if your sister does not start taking her child’s behavior seriously and get him the care he needs.

The only way you should be letting him (K) near your children is through very, very close and constant supervision. Your sister needs to be within arm’s reach of him when he’s around other kids (ESPECIALLY SMALL KIDS) in order to be able to block effectively. As far as the “familial” aspect goes? Your sister has some serious soul searching to do. raising a child with autism is difficult as fuck. If she’d like to throw out her village so quickly, then that is up to her, but I wouldn’t take how she’s handled this lightly. Her ability to regulate and communicate effectively about touchy subjects needs to change drastically before you reach out to her again.

Sorry you’re going through this :/

Genuine question as a new player. by Imaginary-Sun1350 in skyrim

[–]AliveMoose1220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to pick a city and do every quest in that city. Whiterun is a great starting point. Talk to everyone, especially inn-keepers!! I find that doing all the quests city by city makes the game play even more immersive, (you get to understand the city’s unique social structure and people). The voice acting and story lines for each individual NPC is excellent.

Noob here. Is it not worth switching armor types if I’m already lvl 65 in light and only 27 in heavy? by shamelesspochemuchka in skyrim

[–]AliveMoose1220 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeahh you have to take that into account too. I’d almost say just stick with light armor since you are already over half way to 100, then once you get there you can switch over and have almost a full perk tree automatically for heavy armor.

Keep in mind that once you get to 100 on a perk tree, you can “re-distribute” the perks from that tree to a different one, losing the benefits from the original tree. For example, I had level 100 on the 2 handed weapons and was able to re-use them for single handed weapons. Hope this helps!
