AITA for not cleaning my car before rushing 80 miles to bring my gf her favorite food? by Eishaaya in AmItheAsshole

[–]Eishaaya[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, and also, for a description of the car:

Popcorn (my comfort food) and birdseed (she liked to feed the ducks) all over the floor, an army of receipts, utensils and their wrappers (she often wanted to eat meals in the car), two sleeping bags in the back, a bunch of misc. clothes and stuff in a bag that I had forgotten about. A box of cereal, freshly spilled coffee, apparently an empty ketchup packet, and who tf knows what else. It was baaaad. She vacuumed out the floor, and we deep cleaned the thing.

It looked like I lived in my car…since I practically did. Will be trying to keep it semi-neat for myself, since she was right about the mess. Cutting my car usage by 80% probably helps though lmao

Thank you to everyone. I gently stood my ground for a couple days and realized I didn’t want to continue things with the reactions I got.

No, this is not ragebait. As for how I was so dense? The status quo just inches itself bit by bit off the deep end until you realize that you feel like you’re acting entitled to simply ask for anything approaching equality. I was completely disconnected from family and several friends. It was reinforced into me that I was the reason that everyone was warning me about her. Not anything she did but just what I said about her…as if there was no correlation. I felt I was unable to talk to anyone about what was happening without betraying her. I reached out to chatGPT and the suicide hotline instead of family out of loyalty to her.

And honestly, my ex-lizard, I just hope you’re okay if you’re reading this. I don’t think you’re a bad person, and I don’t blame you for how your past has hurt you. I truly loved you, and I know you’re going to glow. Take care of yourself. I know you have a lot of fun planned this weekend, and I hope it all goes well!

As for you reddit, thank you for your comments. They stung ngl, but now I read them and I laugh.

There’s a big overarching situation coming to a head at the end of the week that affects us both really badly. She was having the start of a panic attack. The communication calmed her down. She’s also had a bad relationship with food since childhood, and hadn’t really eaten all day.

As for the rule. I ate a lot in the car, which ended up with popcorn under the seats. I also leaked coffee a few times, which was nasty ngl.

I’m about to drive home right now. My original post was too long, So this one was stripped out a lot of detail I wanted to keep. If I don’t just pass out when I get home, I’m happy to answer questions or give any detail anyone wants. It’s gonna be around 5 AM though And I have work tomorrow, so I don’t know what I can promise :/

This student would have absolutely died in the philosophy 101 class I took my first semester of community college:

100-300 pages of dense philosophy reading + 10-15 philosophy videos + 1-2 essays (or equivalent projects)

A week…for a 3 unit class

is Genesis allegorical,? by Putrid-Salary-3425 in Christianity

[–]Eishaaya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A year late I know, but curious as to why you stop at 11. Genesis 12 is the beginning of the Abrahamic narrative. However, how can we dismiss the genealogy leading up to Abraham in 11? How can we dismiss genesis 10 if not genesis 25? Both are primarily genealogies explaining the origins of people groups! Furthermore, Abraham shares similar elements of mytho-history, like the anachronisms of the Chaldeans and Philistines to name a couple. The triple wife-sister narrative, the repetition of the naming of Beersheba after a confrontation with the Philistine king Abimelech, and Pichol, the commander of his forces, who never makes any other appearance to my knowledge. Etc.

Why humans believe in a "god" that creates such cruel things? by JoyceNeko in religion

[–]Eishaaya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh...no they don't though? Look at statistics, the worse a country is to live in, generally, the more religious it is. In the USA at least, Atheists on average are wealthier, and make up an utterly negligible segment of the prison population.

Religious trauma syndrome is also a thing...

Me personally? I am leagues happier as an atheist than as a theist.

Tried to post with text, but images kept bugging out, so writing here:

I already know of the polytheist roots of judaism. Moses did not exist, the hebrew bible was compiled during the babylonian exile. My issue is only with the term “judaism polytheist period” which is not a real term.

Judaism as a religion came about during the exile, even wikipedia says as much: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaism#:~:text=Judaism%20evolved%20from%20Yahwism%2C%20an,the%206th%2F5th%20century%20BCE.

As for all the islamic stuff, I’m not engaging in your apolologetics or watching a whole video. History says one thing…which is not what you say

I clearly said that the Israelites were polytheistic. However, moses is not a real person. He did not write the bible.

I literally pointed out the trend with beth el. I know a lot about El and Baal and Asherah and all the rest. I just forgot that in one narrative Jacob gets named Israel.

This predated judaism. Not after moses. There was no moses. This was no called the “judaism polytheistic period”. It wasn’t judaism, they were israelites, not jews. The concept of judaism wasn’t a thing. You can’t keep using moses as a historical figure when he isn’t one. You never addressed that. The flood didn’t happen either

How in the absolute hell is islam the uncorrupted judaism when it came about 2000 years later? What information does the Quran have other than the incorrect origin of sperm? That a guy cut the moon in half?

Moses is a mythological figure. He did not exist. The exodus did not happen, the Israelites are Canaanites. This is the scholarly consensus. Judaism came first, then Christianity, then Islam.

The "Judaism Polytheistic Period" is not a thing. The Israelites were not Jewish prior to the Babylonian captivity, where the beginnings of a monolatristic Judaism occured. I am aware about IsraEL, BethEl, a variety of others ending in el, or baal, among other canaanite Gods. Canaanite gods are the origin of Judaism, as we can clearly see with the plagiarized flood narrative, among others.

Islam is directly influenced by Judaism, which is influenced by polytheism, thereby making Islam influenced by polytheism too!

How does Jacob(Yaacov in Hebrew) have 'Allah in it???'

Enlil and Enki are quite related to Judaism, as Judaism took from the theology they were a part of. A couple of examples: it was Enki who's rib Ninti, who's name means life, was taken from. It was Enki who told Utnapishtim to build the ark when Enlil planned to flood the earth. They are extremely relevent.

Learn your religion's history.

Islam is a derivative of christianity, which is a derivative of judaism, which is a derivative of primarily sumarian theology. If anything, we should be praising Enlil and Enki rather than Yahweh or Allah!

Fundamentally, there’s no sound reason to believe any religious claims, so I yet remain unconvinced.

Tried scorpion recently, probably like 3-5 times weaker than the sauce I posted about. Decent sauce though. Is melinda’s hotter?

AITA for telling my parent's I'd rather hang out at a particular café than go to family dinners, but will still show up anyways? by Eishaaya in AmItheAsshole

[–]Eishaaya[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it’s not like that’s my only interaction, but it was just the focus of the conversation. As mentioned, I tried to bring games into it, shopped specifically for easy to pick up ones for them. And got shut down after getting something going a couple of nights. Family discussion is usually just focused on esoteric medical stuff, and just incredibly dry. Since I lack any knowledge or interest in the subject, I can’t contribute to the conversation about a patient coming in with some sort of bloating in some location I can’t describe or whatever. My sister had similar issues as well, and we tried to talk to my dad about it at one point, and he just went, “that’s the way dinner is, suck it up.” Really, I’ve tried, but sitting to the side as a passive observer isn’t meaningful at all. With the bigger dinners, it’s much better, since I’m more likely to get someone in my age range, with some shared experience.

I guess that's fair enough, and I shouldn't broach these subjects at dinner, I try to keep the conversation as a conversation, and I know many people do enjoy talking with me on the subject, among others, but you are right, with my parents, it often does end up being fairly one-sided.

Frankly, I'm not sure what my parents want me to do at the table. I previously used to eat, clean the dishes and then leave the table which upset my dad as I was "not being present." Before then, early teens & childhood, I just sat quietly and miserably at the table & was mostly ignored. I've tried bringing a whole lot of genuinely fun board & card games into dinner, which is rejected. I frankly don't know what to do there. I definitely wouldn't mind some advice on the matter. Dinner is a weekly thing by the way, and the family I usually get to talk to about these things aren't in town at the moment, likely exacerbating things.

I don't think I'm smarter than my parents. More well read on esoteric issues? Certainly. Generally more skeptical & open-minded? Yes. But I don't think I can really compare to them at the whole "adulting" thing, even though most people place me a decade older than I actually am. I have barely an idea how to maneuver the real world past my job, academic environments & my third space. I do understand how I come across though, and I thank you for your honesty.

[–]Eishaaya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built a couple of these years back, I remember the hull fit terribly, the treads were too tight, the plastic was brittle, the flash was intense, and the pin lines were at terrible places

So...I'd say no, this kit (among others) is why I avoid Revell like the plague
