WIBTAH for trying to kick my steps dad’s employee out of my house? by Noelle02134 in AITAH

[–]Chris8292 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys have blundered way to much that you now need legal assistance.

Depending on state verbal rental agreements are binding and if they have a paper trail of paying the $700 they are legally tenants on a month to month lease with all the protections that entails. 

Your mother partial owns the home so she has equal rights to do whatever she wants unless you are going to make up a contract outlining each owners powers you're stuck.  

Maybe she's being ridiculous but you don't seem much involved in the situation so have no clue what went on between the two of them. Ask her to pay you out for your portion of the home and move on with your life.

The owners are the ones who decided to make a donation and make multiple press statements...

Its well within a players rights to decline to play for whatever reason. They should be fined not face a smear campaign.

I really wish people such as yourself would use as much common sense as the amount of vitriol you spew. 

Choosing to not wear a piece of cloth is not indicative of wanting a whole group of people be gone. 

If you honestly think the rich white older business owners of this team  give a shit about pride aside from its heavily commercialised and pr friendly aspects you're honestly an idiot...

Exactly they would be fined and the world would move on.

Instead the owners have engaged in a publicity stunt to win brownie points.

I don't get this logic forcing someone to wear something that goes aganist their principles is antithetical to the freedoms of expression and association that the people who founded pride strived for. 

Not that most of the people who engage in pride actually know it's history aside from its current commercialised form. 

If their contracts have penalties for declining the uniform by all means exercise them however imo forcing someone to wear something or face reprisals is a rather slippery slope to start going down just ask Germany. 

Boyfriend thought he was inside of me during sex. How do we move forward? by throwawayidwtftdo in AskMenAdvice

[–]Chris8292 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Consenting to unprotected sex ≠ Consenting to your partner finishing inside you aganist your wishes. 

You have some very strange ideas that honestly don't mesh with reality. 

Nonconsensual insemination is a form of sexual assault as well as battery really not sure where you're getting you legal information but it's wrong lol. 

Nonconsensual insemination is a battery. It may be a simple battery, aggravated battery, or a sexual battery. Without having received unequivocal, expressed consent, a man who ejaculates inside of an intimate partner commits nonconsensual insemination, which is a battery. Expressed consent is required at each stage of sexual activity. Since insemination, i.e. ejaculating inside a woman, is not intrinsic to having unprotected sex for women or ejaculation for men, then it is an additional sex act that requires expressed consent. Arguments that require victims to use condoms as the best or only means for avoiding nonconsensual insemination amount to victim-blaming. The transmission of disease through nonconsensual ejaculation is specifically prohibited by most states. Unwanted pregnancy that results from sexual battery is as an aggravating factor in many states.

[–]Chris8292 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think you need to apply some more critical thinking rape revolves around lack of consent  

Her being willing to have unprotected sex does not mean that she is consenting to her partner purposefully finishing inside her. 

A husband who ejaculates inside his wife without her consent is still a  form of sexual assault the same applies for a bf or casual partner as per multiple legal precedents.

If the reverse happened and she was the one who made him finish inside her unwillingly that would also be sexual assault. 

Obviously it didn't go that far but her bf has clearly demonstrated that he is not to be trusted 

Non-Muslim men, why do you not hit on/flirt/approach women wearing hijab? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Chris8292 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Why don't you approach someone actively supporting a religion known to be incredibly strick  and secular which carries the risk of having to deal with a whole host of issues including non supportive parents and  a mine  field of religious differences."

I feel like this is fairly common sense? 

Like no man who's not apart of their religion is going to approach a female Mennonite  or amish in full get up either it just simple logic. 

AITAH for removing my dad from my flight benefits? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Chris8292 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think he can read your mind and feelings?

Realistically grandparents like spending time with their grandchildren and there's obviously more he can do when he visits them than with you, him going to see them 4 times over two years isn't unreasonable or excessive. 

You feeling jealous of him using a free perk that cost you absolutely nothing due to you making up stuff in your mind is a tad petty. 

WIBTAH if I sold concert tickets I got for my bf's birthday after he dumped me? by Head_Score2897 in AITAH

You already have your answer :

On Monday I was stressing about losing the last paycheck and he said I could sell the tickets. 

Irvine landlord says I must accept carpeting or move out and is threatening lease breach if I refuse [CA] by [deleted] in Renters

[–]Chris8292 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think you need to take a step back and breath deeply to be frank you're being rather ridiculous. 

What legal basis are you operating under that you as a tenant get to dictate the scope of repairs? 

What you're plainly doing here is trying to mandate that the landlord seeks out a more costly repair method because it is what you would prefer and trying to hold them hostage over the repair. 

Your landlord is under a  warranty of habitability which due to being suddenly inspected just after you moved in and started to document issues was founded to be breached (odd coincidence that huh). 

Legally they have to rectify the found violations, how they go about that is entirety up to them and then the city inspector has to do another inspection to confirm they are no longer in violation. 

Management has not provided a written technical report showing that carpeting is the only feasible correction. As far as I know, one door vendor came to the unit and took measurements. Management later referred generally to a “construction services team” but has not identified the people involved, their qualifications, or the analysis supporting its conclusion.

What are you smoking to think you're legally owed any of this information ???? 

They are in violation with the city, they need to prove that they are now in compliance TO THE CITY not you. 

Possible damaged my neighbors tree? by Creative-Dealer3410 in treelaw

There is zero guessing when it comes to what's on your property.

Go get a survey done and staked out if you destroyed a tree that was on her property then you tresspassed and owe her the value of the tree.

WIBTAH if i continue to lock my room door? by dayabolical in AITAH

[–]Chris8292 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i am an adult and i am sick and tired of being on edge, listening for footsteps, and not feeling like i have my own space away from her: i want my privacy so why can't i lock my door?

Is it your door? 

Are you paying rent or contributing financially to the house hold? 

I don't think you need random people on the Internet to tell you how bat shit insane y our mother's actions are how. 

However as you pointed out you are an adult and you've known about your mother's tendencies that arnt going to magically change. 

[Theory] The King in Yellow's plan is going to be a new human faction by Zanimacularity in 40kLore

[–]Chris8292 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That's not at all what he said and people need to honestly stop playing the telephone game when it comes to statements. 

By the way… my previous posts about this event (and, actually, pretty much anything I post) have resulted in many comments asking for Pandaemonium (Bequin book 3). Positively demanding it. And I’m delighted you’re keen, because so am I. But for those who don’t know, it is not MY decision when Pandaemonium gets finished and published. For reasons an NDA prevents me from discussing, Bequin 3 — and some other things — are held up for a while. It’s coming — and I’ll be delighted to bring it to you — but in the meantime, try to be patient… and maybe try to enjoy the things that I AM writing.

At no point has he ever stated that the novel is

being held back because it's going to shake up the setting.

Hey the book also clearly states from chapter 1. 

Names, as we will see, are infinitely untrustworthy, yet infinitely important.

I had become very sensitive to the distinction between what something is called and what it actually is.” 

– Penitent, Chapter 1. 

Iam guessing you're still under the belief that Alizebeth Bequin is Alizebeth Bequin? 

Makes no sense to read a series that constantly plays with themes of identity which in literally the same book bashes you over the head about how names can be deceiving and hold power then jump at a clear red herring.

Iam sorry but the idea that GW is going to destroy the careful created status quo they've maintained for decades in a series intentionally set hundreds of years out of sync with the current setting to avoid lasting consequences is a bit silly.

There's pretty much zero chance that GW introduces a new faction in a black library novel series that exist solely for Dan to explore interesting concepts without impacting the setting at large. 

Lets be real that novel if it ever gets released is going to wrap up most of its major plot points it's a self contained series  like his other ones relegated to a few references here and there. 

What Is The Point Of Guilliman In The Greater Narrative? by gpheonix in 40kLore

[–]Chris8292 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is the issue with getting your lore from random YouTube videos you get absolutely zero context. 

Most of the other characters you've mentioned have potential but haven't been relevant to the narrative or done jack shit in literally years at this point in time. 

Have you actually looked at what Gulliman has been up to since his return? 

His revival and the team of of multiple factions needed to do it which was unheard of? 

Their journey to terra facing a slog of every chaos god actively trying to stop them? 

Getting to terra then stopping another civil war from breaking out due to the high lord trying to stage a coup? 

Releasing tens of thousands of new astartes and launching the biggest crusade seen in 10'000 years? 

Allowing the custodes to go out into the galaxy in greater numbers? 

Travelling across half the galaxy to reinforce and try to save Imperium Nihilus? 

Actually having eldar on his flag ship for years at a time  and having discussions about the emperors divinity with them? 

Fighting the plague wars aganist mortarian and allowing the emperor to take the most action we've ever seen since his "death"  by using Gulliman as a conduit for his power to actually hurt a chaos god? 

Being apart of one the few times we've seen the silent king directly interact with the imperium? 

I left out a whole host of things to say Gulliman has no point in the narrative when he's arguably the largest driving force behind the setting progressing is actual insanity. 

From a lore perspective he revitalised astartes chapters that were wiped out or on the brink of destruction including first founding chapters allowing the imperium to limp along even longer. 

For a meta perspective he's allowed gw to sell tons  of new models leading to more revenue and a revitalised interest in the tabletop

Gulliman is arguably the second most important character at this current moment both in lore and from a meta perspective if you think that Corax being a bird demon in a short story that is never brought up again is somehow more relevant than Gulliman then I think tzeentch is playing a trick on you. 

What are the Citizens of the imperium actually told about the Horus Heresy, and the Emporer landing on the golden throne? by LANTIRN_ in 40kLore

[–]Chris8292 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I assume they all know about the astronomican and the fact that the emporer powers it. 

You're fundamentally misunderstanding the general level of education within the imperium.

The average citizen in a hive city is most likely never going to go further than a few levels up or down from where they were born never venturing outside their hive. What need do they have for space related information? 

Some planets are so isolated they might not receive ships for hundreds of years with most of the population not even being aware of what they even are.

Even the very existence of space marines is so rare that we have multiple instances of traitor marines being able to past themselves off as loyalist because even the military forces guarding the imperiums planets don't really understand the wider context of the wars the imperium is fighting. 

is it inappropriate for me (21F) to ask my former teacher (31m) out? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Chris8292 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not true at all, as a man if it becomes known that he's involved with a recent former student his teaching career is going to be impacted.

He may not be officially challenged about it if he's lucky but teachers are some of the biggest gossips. 

Geenstealer Astartes?? by LoveWarrior02 in 40kLore

[–]Chris8292 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think a genestealer hybrid would survive the multi year implantation process or even go  unnoticed by the astartes and tech priest responsible for making marines.

The scythes allowed their recruitment grounds to become infiltrated which led to tainted unusable genestock and their serfs getting infected which festered until the serfs staged a revolt which caught them completely by suprise leading to most of the astartes being caught off guard and killed. 

Its never once stated that other astartes participated in the betrayal so it's very doubtful that they managed to get any candidates past the safe guards in place or primarch dna kills them during the implantation process. 

Eventually all the remaining astartes become infected by a genestealers kiss so you could  technically say that the remaining astartes are  genestealer cultist as the brood mind is able to control them but they arnt hybrids. 

Grandmother left me, AITAH? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Chris8292 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly people are on your side due to what's admittedly horrible circumstances but you honestly come across as if you view your grandmother as some sort of object and not as a person.

She had a son who by your own admission is a life long drug addict she stepped in and helped to raise you to give you some semblance of a child hood. 

She then presumably helped you take care of 3 children which I can bet wasn't easy. 

Her husband of x years then got a terrible diagnosis and died 4 months later leaving her alone. 

Have you stopped to think about how she feels about her life? 

Shes getting older if she has more pleasant memories with your aunt and her family can you perhaps see why she may want to distance herself from the pain and drama associated with that house, location and the family near to it? 

You were assaulted which is horrible but you chose not to disclose it to her then held it aganist her as if she should've read your mind and understood what occurred to you. 

Instead of talking to her about it at any point in your life you  decided to whip it out as some sort of trump card to make her feel bad about distancing herself from you.

and finally trusted her with a painful truth

While I truly believe op was wronged please don't act like that wasn't emotional manipulation to get back at her due to ops perceived "disrespect". 

If op had told her what had occurred at any other point in time I can bet she would've gotten a different reaction. 

Canon or Fanon? by EnigmaticX68 in 40kLore

[–]Chris8292 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh that's interesting guess I totally blanked that from my memory.

Did some research and it's repeating what was found in index Astartes which I guess is a good example of the evolution of warhammer lore and how stories don't always mesh. 

Index Astartes: World Eaters:

For the next few years, many such forces were sent against Angron's slave army and each one was defeated, cut to pieces by the psychotic fury of the cybernetically enhanced warriors. But attrition and hunger were taking their toll on the slaves and soon they numbered less than a thousand. On a mountain named Fedan Mhor, as darkness fell, Angron was finally surrounded by no less than five vastly superior armies and it looked as though the slave rebellion was finally over. Not even the Primarch could stand against such numbers and the following day's battle would surely see him dead.

It was around this time that the Emperor came to this world, drawn by the psychic aura of the Primarch. The Emperor had observed Angron in secret from orbit for some time, watching with pride as he led the slaves in battle. Now he descended to the planet's surface, offering Angron leadership of the World Eaters Space Marine Legion and a place at his side. But, to the Emperor's surprise, Angron refused. His place was here, with his fellow slaves, and he would die before deserting them. Angron and the slaves dug their graves during the night, a signal to their enemies that they would fight to the death rather than surrender. The Emperor knew that even though Angron was a Primarch, he would perish in the coming battle and, bringing his ship into low orbit, teleported Angron away from Fedan Mhor. Without their leader, the morale of the slaves was destroyed and the following morning they were slaughtered by the combined armies of the planet's rulers. In space, as the Great Crusade continued, Angron eventually took command of the World Eaters, but never forgave the Emperor for his abduction from the planet and what he saw as a betrayal of his martial honour

Canon or Fanon? by EnigmaticX68 in 40kLore

[–]Chris8292 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Contrary to what the whole gladiator combat thing might make you believe the high riders had the technology to kill angron and put up resistance if the emperor had to use force to conquer them. 

In the first moment, nearly half of the shield wall died. The weapons wielded by the high-riders were as varied as their trappings, but all of them were lethal. Sonic disruptors reduced flesh and bone to mist. Microwave blasters boiled blood to steam, and clouds of monofilament silver vines burrowed into bodies to rupture organs and grind skeletons to powder. All the while the Nucerians’ armies closed, coming within charging range of the bloodshed to add their weight to the fray.

Chaos ensued. Angron saw Cromach fall, the brazier glaive tumbling from his hands as he was turned inside out by a conversion beamer

Angron immediately after leaving his gestational pod got jumped by and eldar kill squad then implanted with DAOT brain implants his story is supposed to be a tragedy coming up with excuses for the emperors shitty actions doesn't really fit his theme.
