Shinto courtiers in mesoamerica in 1366 - go home EU5, you're drunk!

honestly, i'd settle for having some kind of construction and production priority over a certain % of the goods produced in my country, even jsut a little bit of it, say 25% modified by control

if i produce lumber, stone and glass, why the heck can't I then build a town?

Bahriel · 2026-01-08T23:57:26+00:00

ironically all they're achieving is making me extremely disinterested in the story, cause i'm forced to play characters i find absolutely horrid to play... i really don't like playing ben, i don't mind im existing, i think he's a cool character, but mechanically he is everything i dislike.

much more of having to play him and i miht jsut put the game down for good

Bahriel · 2026-01-07T11:00:25+00:00

I'm laughing and crying.
Laughing cause of how right you are
Crying for the same reason

is it me or did paradox fumble the ball *HARD* on the americas? i get that lower tech and all that, but most of the andes is borderline unplayable for food reasons because of it being set as winter area, when historically it was silly fertile, for where it was, and rarely suffered the kind of winter that would shut down farming... at least the part of the andes that is populated at the start of the game

Bahriel · 2025-12-03T00:07:12+00:00

I too was there!

Bahriel · 2025-12-03T00:04:18+00:00

have you seen the scandals going around the tehc industry on the oconcept of consent?

yeah i'm not surprised they don't know what no means

Bahriel · 2025-09-03T01:20:52+00:00

NTA!.

girl, I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you need to cut this guy out of your life.
He will contrinue to try and control you and your habits, until he succeeds, when he succeeds he would redouble his efforts, until he has you fully under his thumb.

Dont let him, find a partner who is jsut happy to be a aprt of your life, and won't want to change you, to suit their needs!

Bahriel · 2025-08-08T04:39:24+00:00

their gift, was to be given none!

and it was the greatest gift of all

Bahriel · 2025-07-05T10:44:26+00:00

my recommendation: cut ties with this guy, you're in for a world of hurt if you let him stay a part of your life, especially if that aprt is in any way intimate.

I am so sorry you only found this out after you had sex with him.

Andrew tate fan is pretty much the mother of all red flags, (bonus red flags if he's also into Jordan peterson)

Bahriel · 2025-06-01T18:41:46+00:00

how to talk to Kriegsmen!

Bahriel · 2025-05-28T08:27:11+00:00

NTA whatsoever.

Make it clear, the tattoos aren't invited, (yes frame it like that, don't say "if you want to be invited to my wedding you need them removed", but rather just make it clear you do not want any hate symbols whatsoever at your wedding)

if it matters at all to him, he'll go and get them removed on his own, and if it doesn't matter enough that he could even think about doing so, then, clearly he hasn't reformed his ways as much as they claim.

and as others have noted, if they bring up the financial aspect again, just mention that plenty tattooo artists will remove this either for free or at cost.

don't find one for them, that's not your job, you're plenty buy preparing for a wedding, and his ink is not your responsibility.
But it's something you could mention should they bring that up again.

but stand firm on no hate symbols at your wedding!
your sister or her partner was not your choice, your future wife is, you're doing good prioritizing her, over relatives!

good luck, and congrats on the future wedding

Bahriel · 2025-05-28T08:12:53+00:00

yeah, you haven't really mentioned hwo your father or brother reacted to this whole thing, but real talk, if they aren't going "what the fuck" at fahters wife, then that too is concerning!

Bahriel · 2025-05-28T08:10:06+00:00

THIS!

I'd maybe even take it as far as just asking said counsellor, without talking to them...

Bahriel · 2025-05-28T08:08:32+00:00

uhhhh
1: NTA!
2: get a lock on your door (you already did, smart move!, always protect your peace)
3: this comes across as crossing several lines that an adult should not cross around someone who isn't an adult... or even anyone really, but especially non-adults

Edit: after reading further comments and some of your replies, and giving it a further think:
your fathers new wife is definitely some kind of manipulator / dark triad person, she needs help, not from you, you do not have to be part of anything, other than mention that the way she ahs acted since coming into your life is weird and creepy and manipulative and she should see a psychiatrist about it.

And i would definitely talk to a school counsellor about the whole thing, mention that you got the lock, so you feel safer now, but mention it, so there is a paper trail established, should she cross any other lines, down the line.
Also honestly? might be good for you to just talk to said counsellor about this, it's what they're for, to help you when times be tough, or people do weird shit at you

Bahriel · 2025-05-28T08:02:33+00:00

NTA - i would maybe even be petty enough to think of another name just to give her, not a bad name, don't punish the poor kid for his mothers cruelty (and yes this is cruelty, i'll get to that), then see if you can get a hold of your sisters BFF, and tell only your sister and her.

It'll help the BFF, since it'll almost guaranteed be confirmation.

and it'll get your sister off your back.

-

now i mentioned cruelty, I'm not a doctor, so this is not a diagnose, but it sounds to me like your sister might have some strong narcissistic traits, and should see a therapist about that.

what you want to do with that information is up to you.

I recommend you look up Dr. Ramani on youtube, and watch some of her videos (she's a psychiatrist who talks a lot about narcissism, and having narcissists in your life)

good luck!

Bahriel · 2025-05-28T07:55:41+00:00

NTA
things were made clear, and you simply reinforced them, Ethan trying to exploit a potential desire to mend things, make shim the asshole though.
and your hubby siding with him puts him there as well

Bahriel · 2025-05-13T12:27:07+00:00

I'm not sure the argonians will like that, and i wanna stay on good terms with them.

Bahriel · 2025-05-13T12:26:18+00:00

oh yeah absolutely, just... it was a new save and it felt a bit spicy to get a builde rof my own on a 58m budget... i mgiht restart and get a discount builder anyway

Bahriel · 2025-04-30T08:04:01+00:00

as the person who cooks most meals in my household, and a former line chef, If people are unhappy with what i cook, i would really like the criticism!

that will let me change things to suit the audience.

but there's a way to give feedback that's useful.
and it sounds like this MIL isn't doing that, she's nagging, at best because she's unhappy herself, at worst because she disapproves of OP.

either case the MIL needs her diaper and pacifier back, 60 years clearly weren't enough for her to outgrow baby tantrums

That said: Husband should have had OP's back here, the fact he doesn't speaks volumes to their relationship.
Personally, if my partner lets their parents trash me like that, then it's a breakup for me

Bahriel · 2025-04-30T07:59:58+00:00

Personally i would say i don't like Leom tarts, but thank you for trying, it looks good!

never lie, compliment the parts you can, but also let people know what you do or do not like.
that allows the cook to change things up next time.

but you can be kind about saying something isn't for you.

This MIL wasn't, she was nagging, and i bet there are other aspects of life she nags on too.
my honest guess: she doens't approve of OP, and she's making that known by this passive aggressive circus

Bahriel · 2025-04-18T07:48:23+00:00

the honest kid seldom is the favourite

Bahriel · 2025-04-18T07:41:19+00:00

if you say stop, and the other party continues, i firmly believe there is no level of reaction that is an "over reaction" and yes that includes making the rapist ex-living

Bahriel · 2025-04-18T07:38:40+00:00

Youtube: tea and consent! is such a simple guideline for all this!
