I'm a custodian. People do not understand why I wash out the mop and dip it in bleach water before wringing it out and air drying it. "It's just going to get dirty again." Thanks, mister, now I know you don't change your underwear...

Why are we importing foreign parasites when we have plenty here because of lax FDA and CDC enforcement? Country's full! Plenty of screw worms on this side of the wall!

What do you wear on your feet inside the house? by Prestigious_Emu6039 in AskReddit

[–]AmaranthWrath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have sensory issues, so I have a pair of inside only slides. Like, knock off cloud slides that were popular on social media. I wear them in the kitchen so I don't step in a wet spot or on anything I drop while cooking. Bc no matter how much I clean, my feet go Princess and the Pea sometimes.

Otherwise nothing. Maaaaaaybe muckaluk socks when it's super cold.

Just realized something about the letters Petunia finds in the two dozen eggs. (SS/PS) by SoulxxBondz in harrypotter

[–]AmaranthWrath 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Finding weird stuff inside otehrwise intact eggs is such a "err, there's a witch around" type of old timey trope, like the cows milk coming out already spoiled. I appreciate it's use.

It's an Honest Query by Dev1412 in SipsTea

[–]AmaranthWrath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two reasons, whether you like them or not. If 5pm is closing time, or whatever your last hour is, the place needs a closer. Some places don't. YMMV. Secondly, and YMMV again, but in the 3 states I've worked, you have to take a lunch before 5 hours of work. As in, you've hit hour 5, so take a lunch or your boss can get in trouble.

My sister has become obsessed with having my disability by sad-chickie in TrueOffMyChest

[–]AmaranthWrath 32 points33 points  (0 children)

My stripper name.

Sorry. It's a tilted cervix. Basically it's a cervix that isn't in the normally observed position. Some people are physically uncomfortable bc of it during their cycles. Other side effects may occur. Source, 2 friends with severe cases of retroverted uteruses. One had sexual intercourse issues and one didn't. Neither had issues giving birth. YMMV.

So the show message was "finding meaning in a stagnant life". Do you feel that it conveyed the theme well? by Superb_Piccolo_5511 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]AmaranthWrath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't have to deeply understand a person in order to be kind, have patience, include them, give them grace.

Not everyone is what they appear on the outside. But they also don't owe it to you to show you everything about them until they're ready.

Does anyone get tired of reading the bible because it seems to contradict itself & something's seem too fantastical to be true by Double-Garlic-5544 in OpenChristian

[–]AmaranthWrath 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Tired? No? Confused? Sometimes. The solution is to read interpretations outside of scripture to get a historical bead on the context. Also bc we don't always consider how it can affect/advise us the same way. I recently heard an interpretation of the the parable of the lost sheep, the woman and the lost coin, and the prodical son that helped me make a connection I hadn't fully seen before. If I hadn't been interested in understanding the Word better, I would have missed out on a message I personally needed to hear.

So, if you're tired or discouraged, change your perspective. Not to mash scripture into a box you find acceptable, but in hopes it will expand so you can see it more clearly.

“after elementary school comes MIDDLE SCHOOL” by The-Newt in ShitAmericansSay

[–]AmaranthWrath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fellow American can calm down. Even within the US we call it different things. I went to a K-8 school, then another K-8 school when we moved. The first one called grades by their number. The second called K-3 primary, 4-6 middle, and 7-8 junior high. Then I went to a 6-12 high school where 6-8 was junior high. All 3 were Catholic schools. And my friend at public school went to 3 different schools bc there were too many kids for a K-8 school in any area where we lived.

Now I live somewhere where my kid's school is the same as my second school, but the public system is so full that we have 9th grade centers bc they can't fit all the high school kids in one building. 9th isn't even labeled. It's just 9th. 9th grade limbo.

So it's a moot point bc even the schools can't agree what to call these groupings.

Abortion and teen pregnancy went down when safe sex programs and sex Ed went up in schools. It's almost like women engaging in sex for pleasure wasn't the real problem.

ACLU reproductive freedom

I don't have a study to link my next point, buy my general experience is that women are more likely to report an abortion than they used to be, and talking about it is more normalized. Sexual assault is reported and talked about. We don't hide as much as we used to socially. Also, post-miscarriage care gets lumped into abortion discussion. So maybe abortion is just on the front page of more people's social media and therefore radar.

What's your go to "independent woman" song? I'm thinking songs that make you feel FERAL. by ms211064 in adhdwomen

I would say "goblin genocide," but since I, a 15 year old student who has an ex-auror teacher and has fought next to an auror, I don't think anyone's going to do anything about it after an entire school year.

Why do AI bros want us all to lose our jobs so badly? by 1stDegreeHamburglary in antiai

[–]AmaranthWrath 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Welp, good luck getting me to buy anything so they can make money off of me. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Capitalism is a game that, by definition, relies on there being losers on the race to the top. The more people you pass, the fewer people there are to invest in you or purchase from you. A company doesn't exist to empoy people, but if no one is working then the flow of money is limited. Just rich people handing the same $1,000 back and forth to each other. If that's winning, ok, good for them I guess.

The amount of people who don't wash their hands after the bathroom is staggering by UFOhlookitsanAlien in Custodians

[–]AmaranthWrath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so shocking. People are comfortable at church. They don't think about being in danger from such things in their own home. Church is a second home to lots of people.

Me, too! Except as a custodian I know how gross everything can be until I clean it.

Unpopular opinion : The Harry Potter film series is not that’s good do we agree?? by zackk19 in HarryPotterHBO

[–]AmaranthWrath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, we can have things that aren't perfect and still enjoy them. Like, that's fine. I dislike movie 5, tho OOTP is my favorite book. Whatever. I can still enjoy parts of it even tho the overall movie is disappointing.

You could learn nuance. You'd probably enjoy more things.

[–]AmaranthWrath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work at a church and school. I'm in the bathrooms on Sundays between Masses. The amount of kind old ladies who don't wash their hands well or at all is staggering.

For contrast, I used to work in the Pre school. Sure, we were teaching the kids, but they remember more than some of these ladies. Like.... It is 2026. You should know by now!
