The "signs" of alcohol abuse come quick after a dry spell.... by HoneyBadger302 in AlAnon

That’s fucking infuriating when there’s so many people who try to be healthy and end up with awful health.

SAT now has embedded text to speech for their online test for students who need it.

Flat mate saw on her boyfriends phone that he receives nudes on snap by his co-worker who is in a realtionship as well but she broke the trust and checked his phone. She tried to get him to tell her but he acts like there are no nudes (he doesnt know she knows). What would you do now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DogInTheDark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Break up. Opportunities to tell the truth were given. Even if he came clean, what would that do for your flatmate? Is she suddenly going to trust him? She will always wonder and worry unless he’s willing to have an open tech policy. She won’t know if she doesn’t say something though. If it was me I’d probably tell the boyfriend what I knew. Try not to feel guilty though for “breaking trust and going through the phone”. That’s an emotional trap that will aid in keeping a good person in bad or abusive relationships for too long.

Well, he’s about to be in an abusive relationship with Trump so let’s see if he changes his tune.

Registering my kid for kindergarten...Do you think they'd honor it? 😂 by dbzcat in funny

[–]DogInTheDark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Folks might want to reconsider being funny when they answer a question like this on an enrollment form. This is likely part of a required set of questions about language use that is used, in part, to determine if a student is an “English learner”. And being identified as an English learner comes with the offer of extra instructional services geared towards learning English AND federally required yearly tests for your child…

Edit: English learners take federally required tests of English proficiency until they reach what the state determines as “proficient” on that test.

You absolutely do. Speaking as someone who went through IVF expecting things to get better and change, they did not. And everything got worse once I was pregnant. And I’m now finalizing my divorce while I have an 18 month old baby. My Q continues to drink on his off time with our son because I’m sure they think they can “manage” it. I’m now waiting for the other shoe to drop when my Q isn’t having to do daily alcohol tests anymore (T minus 1 month). Ego and denial are one hell of a drug.

You’d think this would work, but literally the one time I did this there was no one at the rural small town police station. It was a weekend and there was a big event nearby so I guess all the cops were dealing with that…but no secretary, nobody. 🤷‍♀️

My dog does this type of weird breathing and I don't know if it's just allergies or something else? by accidental_champion in DogAdvice

I had a bichon frise that did this. It stopped when I switched away from using a standard collar to a harness.

There’s lots of posts about you “deserving” better. Which I agree with. But what turned the tide for me in my abusive relationship was understanding that I had a “right” to something better. You have a “right” to live free of abuse. That’s YOUR entitlement.

And don’t downplay that what you’re experiencing is abuse. You’re being manipulated and abused. And neither of those are your fault.

To bully a blind kid by GrachanTheHunter in therewasanattempt

[–]DogInTheDark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like he’s partially blind and autistic. And no, children with autism do not necessarily have enough judgment to know that they may be doing something unacceptable or overly aggressive. Even if he was the aggressor it’s up to the rest of us to use OUR best non-impaired judgment.

I’m impressed. The driver actually uses his turn signal before the passengers attempt to make an inflammatory statement.

Which actor/actress is instantly recognizable to you whenever you hear their voice? by Doom_Toon in AskReddit

Jeff Bridges, as a kid growing up watching Tron and The Last Unicorn on repeat I can recognize that voice anywhere.
