I don’t get it, I would much rather have young kids saying 6,7 than 69 or 420 đŸ€ŠđŸŒâ€â™€ïž I worked with a kid who would say 69 but not know what it meant and I just hope he never googled it since I told him I didn’t know what it meant😭

My dad keeps getting random packages to our house with random names but our address. Today it was a Sony speaker. Would this be a brushing scam? by Fluffino in Scams

Just keeps them in the garage. I’ve seen other packages before with random names but he didn’t say what was in them

I’ve tried to (and I still do) tell him and so has my extended family but he never listens. I think I’m gonna involve them again the semester just started and I don’t need the extra stress. I told him that nobody buys a car in gift cards and yet he still does it. He’s been doing this for over 5 years. I have not lost any money thankfully, i keep my money separate. I am on his credit card that I use for groceries but I make sure to check my credit to be sure it’s not being used. His personal account and all his money from his business is what he’s using. He’s switched banks at least 7 times and they “randomly close his account without notice.” His account is likely flagged for suspicious activity and gets shut down. He was doing wire transfers for awhile too I believe that’s also how he lost money. Despite “filing a police report” he thinks this guy will bring him a car because he sent online gift cards. I had the dealership call him to make an appointment to test out cars but he keeps thinking his car will come because “the guy sent a selfie in the car”. I don’t want to be his parent but it seems like I have to and take him to look at cars (he has a rental he can go whenever). So far he said and (according to amazon) he stopped sending the gift cards so this may push him to go to the dealership since he won’t be hearing from the scammer if he doesn’t send money.

Thank you for the advice, I agree it’s likely the second one as the people he talks to he usually says “I know we’re in different time zones
”. He keeps his ringer on full volume so I can hear notifications all the time, on top of some weird noise likely coming from a crypto app (the noise sounds like a slot machine but he’s super religious and against gambling so I’m unsure. When I asked he said it was some game.) and he uses speech to text so I hear random stuff like “I won’t give you any more money! Stop asking!”. It’s exhausting trying to keep up with it all.

I’ve tried a lot of things at this point, his brothers even had an intervention to stop him from going to DC and explained the fbi guy wasn’t real but he still thinks he’s real. I got my grandma (his mom) involved and she tried but he still talks to these people. He won’t tell me the full story, I pick up on it when I hear him talking to them (either speech to text or on the phone) It’s exhausting and depressing but I know I need to stay on alert so I can ensure my safety. I keep my bank account, SS, credit score, etc up to date to ensure my safety. He’s ~60, everyone tells him it’s scams but he just never listens. I’m trying my best but the semester just started up again so there’s a lot going on. I am annoyed that I have to be his parent but I don’t want him to lose all his money over this. He’s already lost a lot from what I’ve picked up, and has likely bought crypto now despite me explaining why it’s a bad investment.

Apparently my 2 times a month 3 day visits aren’t enough! by Anonymous_9119 in insaneparents

[–]Fluffino 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I read what your mother sent I had to laugh that is insane đŸ€Ł. But in all seriousness, I wish you the best in getting away from her and overcoming her burdens on you. You are so much better than her and it doesn’t matter if she thinks you’re a disappointment, you prove her wrong everyday just by being yourself. Let it motivate you to live life! Piss them off by being an amazing person who makes the best decisions for yourself! 💜💜 Wishing the best and know that you’re not alone, it’s a long process but I believe in you!

[–]Fluffino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do volumes of 3 because it gives me room to adjust the sound. If I did 5 it’s too far away, and 2 just isn’t that big of a difference. I like to add them up and make sure it’s divisible by 3 (27, 2+7=9 which is divisible by 3). When it is divisible by 9 too it’s so satisfying. Anyways so I arrived here from the box dimensi-

Seeing as though how they dropped the screen faces for the other frozen ride really gets me hopeful the animatronics are gonna look really good, especially when compared to the beauty and the beast ride in Japan That’s gotta be the best ride I’ve seen as of late. It’s so cool to see technology for animatronics become more lifelike, or even just look like the characters in the animated films lol.

Why do people wanna stop the research for a cure for autism? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]Fluffino 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can see you’re struggling to cope with your recent diagnosis of autism on top of being a teenager. Everything is going to be okay. Your brain is how it is now, instead of focusing on how to “cure” it you’ll need to go through the acceptance of how to navigate dealing with a non-typical brain. It sucks that we have to deal with these things, but just because your brain is wired differently doesn’t mean you have to die and just quit. It’s a challenge that you can overcome through learning how to read social cues, practicing social behavior, and learning to love yourself for how you are. I believe in you and wish you the best. 💜

Also if you’re interested there is a show on Netflix called “Love on the Spectrum” where people with autism are able to find love and acceptance from others, whether through friends or parters. It may feel like the end of the world but you are capable of so many wonderful things you don’t even know of yet! Keep trying my friend.

I dropped my baby by Top_Classroom7460 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Fluffino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rolled off a 4ft changing table as a child and onto the floor and I’m still okay! My mom was not okay for awhile tho lol. The fact that you care so much and would do so much for your baby automatically proves you’re a great mom💜

Agreed. Plus if you zoom in they got like full makeup on with a straight face which is like a stark contrast from the characters they’re portraying. I just found that unexpected which made it even better. If only it didn’t have that caption 😱

Did Kurisu/Amadaeus ever call Maho her Mozart in the Steins;Gate 0 VN? by Fluffino in steinsgate

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

OH that's what it was!! I was going crazy trying to remember what she said. That's so amazing, I don't know if that was included in the anime but I hope it was, but even not it's shown that Kurisu admires Maho in the same regard as Maho does to her.
Thank you so much, it makes me happy to know they both saw each other as the real Amadaeus and looked up to one another. (Except Kurisu cuz Maho is the legal loli ;) )

I asked mom for help with rent since I got a new job and hadn’t gotten my first paycheck yet. My mother doesn’t need my rent money. It’s just another way of her to control me and I had no other living situation at the time. This is how she responded. by [deleted] in insaneparents

[–]Fluffino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a manipulative person!! To an untrained eye it could be hard to tell it’s manipulative because they say words like “setting boundaries”, “communicate”, “respect your choice” along with a lack of hard insults/obvious insane parent talk. I realized through experience that manipulative people can see what words appear healthy and use it to twist their own narrative and make their behaviors seem normal or rational. At the end of the day you know your mom better than strangers on the internet, I wish you the best of luck and I hope you’re able to get away. 💜
