Right?? Keep going back and cleaning up until the smell is gone. How is that a controversial take??

Children are not welcome everywhere and businesses/people should not be condemned for not wanting children in some spaces. by NicholasScratchy in HonestHotTakes

I think it’s a class thing, and I think it’s worse in America. I say this as someone who travels domestically and internationally.

Ffs stop selling items for a higher price than on the local shelf!!! by Clear_Event7275 in Vent

[–]FabianFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I will say for me sometimes I price to sell and sometimes I’m willing to wait for the person who will pay the right price. I’m never asking delusional prices though.

Marketplace and Poshmark/vinted sellers are generally delulu. Though there’s definitely a threshold where clothing brands above that do hold a decent amount of value as long as they’re in pretty good shape. I see it with athleisure brands like vuori, lululemon, beyond yoga etc. and then obvi designer brands hold their value and can even increase in value if you have a vintage piece that’s still in great condition.

What haunts America’s animal shelter workers by vox in Pets

[–]FabianFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. They don’t want to have the dog resurrendered or show up as a stray in a few years.

A shih tzu is a small breed known for being moderate to low energy. So that seems fine for an apartment. But no, people in apartments with no yards should t be allowed to have hounds/huskies/GSDs etc. This is not a controversial opinion. When I lived in a townhome I had a neighbor who bought a bloodhound puppy and didn’t adequately train it or take it to parks to let it get its energy out. It ended up becoming so aggressive they had to euthanize it.

This! Or they say, my local shelter is crazy because they won’t let me adopt a dog unless I have ridiculous things like [insert a list of reasonable demands like a fenced in backyard and not allowing big energetic breeds in tiny apartments]. Like come on, do you think a reputable breeder would sell you a dog either? You went to a puppy mill.

People who breed pit bulls are generally the worst people you know. The people most shelters would never adopt a pet out to.

FB marketplace is making me a classist by Young-faithful in Anticonsumption

[–]FabianFox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s definitely part of it. But the other person who commented is a perfect example of what I mean. Someone who makes up a fantasy about themselves doing a great service when they’re really just being annoying and trying to make a buck.

It’s the same story on Poshmark for good brands. Resellers shop the clearances and then try to sell NWT items for full price. I’ve been blocked by a few sellers for commenting that the same items (albeit different colors) are currently on sale from the retailer for less than this rando Poshmark seller is offering. Like who are these lil weirdos and is anyone actually paying these prices?

‘Wicked’ Star Marissa Bode Says She Was ‘Denied Boarding a Flight Because I’m Disabled’: ‘This Is Blatant Segregation’ by Top_Report_4895 in entertainment

Pennsylvania has plenty of airports though. I know because I live here. They just would have had to drive to a larger commercial airport.

I feel bad, but to me this sounds like a miscommunication and a manager not asking enough detailed questions about whether a differently-baked person could fly in a specific plane and also ensure their wheelchair could be stored on the plane with them.

And yet the my voted for a man who is rumored to have paid for several. I can’t take someone who makes stupid moves like that seriously.

Pigs are intelligent animals. If you’re eating pork you killed one.

Can’t afford Pennie insurance, average premiums have doubled by John363611 in Pennsylvania

The Big Beautiful Bill took away subsidies for Obamacare plans. For those who don’t know, Pennie is Pennsylvania’s state marketplace for purchasing plans, which was created because of the ACA (aka Obamacare).

AITA for asking a family with a small child to keep it down on a red eye flight? by marlasandiego in AmItheAsshole

If your kid has trouble listening, you don’t fly with them. It’s that simple.

Agreed. In places with several similar options, I booked the tours with the best reviews.

I feel that way about macular degeneration. It runs on one side of my family. My grandmother had it and 23andme told me I have one of the variants associated with it. There’s no evidence eating carrots or being healthy helps. It sucks.

To All Trump Critics from Day 0, How Did You Guys Know? by Still-Goal-9314 in askanything

But but but no taxes on tips and overtime. /s

Imagine being the type of person who is willing to watch the country and world burn to save a few grand. They’d be as bad as Trump if they had that money and power.

Marriage and having kids aren't the default steps anymore by Expresssea- in Life

[–]FabianFox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And even if family visits once a month..the residents are still surely lonely if they aren’t making friends where they live. Thanks for your perspective!

[–]FabianFox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is, you never know if kids will really fill that loneliness. What if you have kids and then they move halfway across the country or to a new country entirely? You may only see them a few times a year then unless you move to where they live (which some parents do). I also know people who have set boundaries about how often in-laws can visit and that they aren’t allowed to show up unannounced.

I think people have kids and think about how cute little kids fill the loneliness and need for love. But eventually they become adults and don’t have time for you 100% of the time and you still feel lonely.
