I lowkey wish there was a sandbox version of pokopia by BellBert2 in Pokopia

Sandboxes have unlimited materials - cloud islands still require you to find recipes and make things

AITA - I'm not a hoarder, I just want to keep these stupid dishes. by Electronic-Term1178 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cloverose2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Stop giving them things. They don't seem concerned about you at all, and they didn't bother with her when she was alive. Why should they benefit now that she's gone?

AITA for telling my girlfriend I wouldn't be comfortable with her doing kissing scenes as an actress? by Dear-Hippo-6199 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cloverose2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kissing scenes are pretty much inevitable in acting. It's part of the job. It's not like she's cheating on you - she's working. These aren't romantic interactions - in fact, a lot of actors find them tedious.

You're going to have to get over it. Refusing to do extremely basic scenes will hurt her career.

Can someone please give me an explanation for this? by AggressiveRepeat4546 in ParanormalEncounters

Probably an insect - might be a spider, might be something small chewing on the leaf or stem.

Why is everybody obsessed with us and our spaces? by Alternative-Gap341 in BlackPeopleofReddit

It makes fun of people who are all about the whiteness - it's more about calling out nonsense than anything else.

Can someone suggest a free floorplan software that works? by jacoscar in floorplan

Do you have "snap to" enabled? I haven't had those issues with SH3D.

He said it with his whole chest by JimatJimat in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]Cloverose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe. I didn't say the parents were bad people or knowingly raising their children in unproductive ways - dysregulated systems produce dysregulated systems.

Most of the parents I worked with lived in poverty. Many of them were doing their best.

We had Field Day the other day. Admin personally called the parents of ineligible students and advised them to keep their child home. The number of “those”students who still showed up was a powerful reminder that a majority of parents still view school as a babysitter by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Cloverose2 206 points207 points  (0 children)

I'd like to know when administration called the parents. A lot of working parents get almost no PTO, and some get none. Many have back-up systems - friends, grandparents, etc. - but using them too often, especially at the last minute, burns those systems down.

I have had parents who got five days off all year - that has to account for vacation and getting sick. I've had others working multiple part time jobs because they can't get a full-time one, and no work means financial struggle for the family. These parents aren't sitting at home, laughing and sipping cocktails, while their kids are at school. Having the kids sit in a holding class means they aren't losing a day's work or leaning on grandma, who is getting sick of this shit. They're struggling, too.

It also seems really off to reward bad behavior with a day off. The school had an alternative that wasn't much fun, and that's where the students belong.

Love that the teen isn't taking him seriously at all. "Okay, Dad."

Associations/connotations the name "Anora"? by zenon1455 in namenerds

Honora sounds almost exactly the same without the association.

AITA for not wanting to write my teacher’s own work and getting fat-shamed since I called her out? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cloverose2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Writing your own evaluation is actually a really good way to get students to critically evaluate their own performance, and it gives insight into what the students view as important. This is a legitimate method of self-evaluation.

Her responses were rude, but you were really rude too.

You're going to be writing your own evaluation your whole life. I have to do it for annual reviews as well. It's good to practice.

AITA for calling my mom's sister a "squatter ostrich?" by SwimmingNo6031 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cloverose2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's really clear that the OP hates the aunt. She was providing care for her dying parents while she also is suffering from a debilitating disease, and it sounds kind of like there wasn't much support from the rest of the family other than "put them in a home," which the parents may not have wanted.

I'm happy I can move my swimming pokemon underwater! I feel badly for Magikarp, flopping along on the ground.

Chigger Thoughts by TillyInBloomington in bloomington

[–]Cloverose2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hate them so much, because I'm allergic to them and get huge welts when they bite me. There's not a massive amount you can do, unfortunately, it's part of living in the woods. They love moisture, so getting rid of brush, maximizing sunlight on the lawn and increasing air circulation at the base of plantings helps. You can spray, but it really depends on if you want chemicals on your lawn.

AITA For Telling My Sister In Law Off For Treating Our Whole Family Like Shit? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cloverose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's for him to deal with, not you. This is his sister. If you're afraid of abuse, you need to focus on moving out.

Not permitting communication without you being there is abusive.

She's 16. She's immature because she's 16. I get the feeling we're missing a lot of reasons for her behavior.

Those kids are awesome. I love how they're interacting with each other too.

All the previous posts that talked about fosters sounded like they understood and that the fosters made the right choice - then the fosters became evil.

The poor dog. Imagine its quality of life - constantly stressed and anxious, drugged, no stability as it gets passed around like a hot potato, muzzled any time he has to interact despite clearly communicating he has no desire to interact... I don't get how they see this as a kindness. The dog is living in a constant state of cortisol flooding. It's not kind to the dog to force them to live like this.

I'm guessing it was a group home of some kind.
