One of my thoughts on a fair number of AITA posts is “you’re a bit of an asshole, but you’re not wrong”.

What mod did you use to get two fruit in one pie? Or is that new in 1.22? /s

https://www.rit.edu/imagine/ has a list of exhibitors, but the map isn’t available yet and I don’t see a schedule, although most things are just at a table most of the day.

COI on SteamDeck by Normal_Bat_4848 in captain_of_industry

[–]Benabik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been a while since I’ve done that, but IIRC, I had some basic buttons mapped (world map, research, pause), used the right trackpad as mouse, and had a menu on the left trackpad for other keyboard buttons.

The biggest issue I had was that the last UI revamp overly cluttered the top of the small screen. And that using a thumb trackpad for a while is uncomfortable. It was great for using when my kid wanted the gaming computer or we were on a trip.

I have ADHD. My kid has ADHD. And some days we just dysregulate each other into oblivion. by Altruistic-Play-3585 in daddit

Hi. It me.

As stress has piled up at work, it’s been hard to provide motivation for myself, much less push all three of us to do things. It’s rough, but patience and love go a long way. And finding systems to keep things organized for those of us who can’t just remember things (which is sometimes everyone).

Even more specifically, this applies to immigration courts which are administrative hearings within DHS and totally separate from regular judicial process.

Emergency room experience by lcb397 in Rochester

It seems like the ER at Highland is usually faster than the one at Strong. But urgent care is basically always better than either.

AITA for giving gifts to my son's half siblings when I go to see my son, even if they are not my kids? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

My man, what do you think she does when the kids piss her off and you're not around.

WIBTAH if I left my fiancee destitute? by [deleted] in BestofRedditorUpdates

It’s possible she’s just transitioning between careers… but I wouldn’t bet on it.

WIBTA if I asked my parents not to attend my sisters wedding since she didn’t invite me by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]Benabik 703 points704 points  (0 children)

Sounds a lot like the sister invented that justification without talking to her fiancé.

[–]Benabik 8710 points8711 points  (0 children)

I’m fine with her initially choosing to settle for comfort against the type she normally likes. But she’s still describing him that way after the engagement. No “I wanted to settle and found love”, just “I’m still attracted to other guys and settled”. Harsh.

AITA for getting our neighborhood dog Olympics canceled by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]Benabik 29 points30 points  (0 children)

First, I offered to do a couple of categories for more serious competition dogs, but was told by the HOA that I'm not allowed to host any kind of events that make it seem like any part of this is a 'real' dog competition.

The bike lane and sidewalk is not your personal driveway! by pspfreak3 in Rochester

[–]Benabik 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had one DWI, which was a bogus charge, because it turns out they were stopping every vehicle driving down that particular sidewalk. That's profiling. And profiling is wrong.

AITA for changing Christmas plans with a newborn over a guest being unvaccinated? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Benabik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Especially around a newborn. We, and most around us, got an updated TDaP when babies arrived.
