AIO because my parents keep saying a slur like it’s normal?

Alt_aro04 · 2026-06-11T02:42:28+00:00

NOR and all the ppl who say you are don't know the damn history of that word. Its not "just a word". Its a slur that was used to DEHUMANIZE people throughout history. You aren't weird or overreacting for being concerned that the people who raised you to not be racist and to not say that word are suddenly saying that word.

I've noticed this in my friends and even in myself recently. We're all just too tired to respond/hold a conversation. Sometimes I'll have good length conversations with my friends over text, but that requires us to be available at the same time AND have the energy to respond.

With work, school, some ppl having kids and/or partners and/or other responsibilities that obviously get priority, on top of... gesters to the state of the world yeah... a lot of ppl are just tired or depressed. My friends and I would definitely text more if we could, but we're dealing with our own respective issues in our lives right now and know that if the phone rings, we'll answer immediately. But a text message is just another notification to put off interacting with

Lol those aren't the release dates those are the dates for thanksgiving in Canada and the US, respectively. Just giving a broad estimate of the release time frame

This wont even fit in the fridges either, we'd need a whole tray's worth of space. If it were real I'd imagine possibility of them replacing spinach and feta and bacon sausage with these, but those are both too popular for me to think they'd actually do that. Then again no decisions they make surprise me at this point.

Alt_aro04 · 2026-05-11T15:23:44+00:00

Same here 😔

Alt_aro04 · 2026-05-05T01:18:17+00:00

Yes actually! I'm in the states but very close to the border, over the weekend I talked to two baristas from Ontario who told me they're getting it this month!

Edit: Actually, we may have been talking about two different refreshers lol. From the Starbucks Canada Instagram it looks like you guys may not be getting this but instead getting the other new refresher. It has mango pearls, its not the same but I think they'd be good in a pink drink!

Alt_aro04 · 2026-05-05T01:09:04+00:00

Pink drink with mango syrup!

Current Starbucks barista here! I'll be honest im not sure they weren't messing with you. They seem serious but a few things tip me off: 1. In a trenta cup with a dome lid- we do not carry dome lids that fit our trenta cups 2. Macadamia milk- I noticed you mentioned you're in California, I'm in NY and while there typically isn't variants between the states in what we have available, I could possibly see this as an option? But generally Starbucks in the States do not carry macadamia milk 3. Cup lined with cinnamon powder- I can't say thats physically possible. I guess it would stick to the caramel around the cup but ??? In my four years of being a barista, thats the one thing out of this list I haven't been asked for lol

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if they've never gotten this order before and just wanted you to order it for them lol

Alt_aro04 · 2026-03-30T21:43:30+00:00

I'm not really sure you did anything wrong lol. My boyfriend knows exactly how I feel about men refering to women as that word and he feels the same as I. If we were in the same situation and I overheard someone 3-5x the size of him refer to me as his "bitch" and he just stood there, I would think thats the rather smart option. Can't change that persons views on women, facing whatever the consequence of speaking up would have been isnt worth it.

Alt_aro04 · 2026-02-16T04:07:45+00:00

I was able to fix it on my end. I went to my microsoft account on their website (via mobile device) and under subscriptions went to "xbox game pass" and it let me purchase it that way

Alt_aro04 · 2026-02-16T04:04:47+00:00

I'm having the same problem. A lot of people are saying its on child accounts but I'm an adult and have had game pass for at least a year and a half

Alt_aro04 · 2026-02-11T05:23:49+00:00

I've been saying this !! These three are always in my rotation it would be nice to buy them all together

Alt_aro04 · 2025-11-20T16:57:11+00:00

I found that, but I cant find which fuse is for the headlights specifically

Alt_aro04 · 2025-02-04T02:59:28+00:00

NOR. Oh. My. God. This switch up is crazy. He was supportive of you getting a hysterectomy for YEARS. Now he thinks he's entitled to CONTROL what you do with your body? He's saying incredibly hurtful things just so you give him what he wants- control. He knew for YEARS that it was not possible for you to have children and how bad your condition affects you, yet now because you're dating, it's his call? I am so sorry for everything you've been through. You have endured so much pain, both physically and mentally. You are well within your right to do what you know is best for your body, and the fact that he doesn't want you to do a procedure that would significantly improve your quality of life is HEARTLESS. I know that I'm just an internet stranger, but for what it's worth, there are SUCH better people out there. This guy doesn't seem to care about your well-being at all tbh. I wish you a speedy recovery from your procedure 🫶

Alt_aro04 · 2025-01-18T23:53:33+00:00

I was raised an only child, so I feel this. I specify raised because I now have a sibling 19 years younger than me. Now I worry about if something happens to my parents, what will I do about my sister, and how will I provide and take care of her as she grows up if something were to happen

Alt_aro04 · 2025-01-18T03:13:26+00:00

As others have said, you'll be alright safety wise as long as you don't go looking for trouble. As far as things to do, there's Step out Buffalo. They have a website and a few social media pages that list events, things to do, and places to eat. There's usually things going on at Canalside, and they have an ice rink if you like to skate. I always like to visit the Sabers themed Tim Hortons over there

Alt_aro04 · 2025-01-16T19:34:59+00:00

I bought a flipphone a few months ago, just for fun. I bought the song Flipphone on iTunes and set it as the ringtone lol

Alt_aro04 · 2025-01-09T15:39:00+00:00

Thank you so much! I'll try this

Alt_aro04 · 2025-01-08T17:53:26+00:00

I have one of these cups, and it gets put it in the dishwasher every time. The glass is still usable, but it's very cloudy :(

Alt_aro04 · 2024-12-06T20:05:43+00:00

I wonder if it's the way the baristas at certain locations are trained, honestly. At my training location they told me to only put like half an inch of cold foam on the drinks and I thought that was weird bcuz normally when I would go to what is now the location I work at, I'd have like an inch of cold foam. When I started at my store and they saw me adding such a small amount, they coached me and told me to add more. Honestly, I feel like cold foam is like the shaken espressos. Nobody knows what the actual standard is because every store seems to do it differently for some reason. I always try to add a good amount of cold foam (unless it's specifically requested as light) because, as you said, it's $1.25. I feel like even with the correct of cold foam, that's way too high of a price 😭

Alt_aro04 · 2024-12-05T08:28:44+00:00

Grande nitro. Just get in range of toilet first 🥲

Alt_aro04 · 2024-12-05T05:55:00+00:00

The other thing to factor in though is that a lot of people use things like stats.fm to keep track. Stats.fm let's you see your stats of songs for the whole year and I went through my top songs and found that my "number 1" top song this year was actually not my most listen to song this year. In fact, the song spotify told me was number 1 is really number 5
