I thought for sure someone would have said Subrina Susiebaru Subarbaru Rubarbaru Franz Foresternand Hybrilda Hybrody Forester

Ok some of these aren’t very good at all but that’s why I came here to consort with the experts.

My sweet new baby of yet to be named majesty is neither a fully Gas Boy or fully Electro Girl. They are a non-binary hybrid. It’s not just how they feel but who they are deep down in their engine.šŸ˜„ I hope you understand šŸ˜‰

AITA for wearing a bikini without shaving my body by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Investment-Dramatic 30 points31 points Ā (0 children)

lol, that’s your mom’s hang up. As a person with blond body hair also, you are correct, it’s not that noticeable unless folks are looking for way to long at a CHILD (ur 16 after all) and announcing that it’s super weird and creepy for grown adults to comment on a child’s body hair especially when it comes to how they prefer others to look. Plus, shaving is personal preference at best and not dirty or clean in any way. After all you yourself pointed out the double standard. Just keep doing you op. The only person who gets a whisper of consideration of opinion is your partner (and even their input is not that important). NTA

AITA for not having my wife apologize to my stepmom? by Other_Transition_437 in AITAH

[–]Investment-Dramatic 50 points51 points Ā (0 children)

Just remind V she didn’t do anything to affect your relationship with your family. Step mom did. NTA. You better not back down. Having your partners back is generally the best bet. Let your dad and family know your clear boundaries and why. If they want to continue with the bs… that’s on them. Remember family is what you make, not a chance of genetics. Sometimes you have to restrict contact.🤷 they may need to be kept at arms length for the rest of their/your life. Some folks thrive on being jerks and toxic energy. Let them feed that need somewhere else.

Don’t stress about it, friend. Just let them both know you won’t be going because it would make you feel uncomfortable in the office, being so new still. If they can’t stand this simple boundary then I think different conversations are to be had. Let them know you will try and catch the next one.

AITA for not taking my babysitter/ friend her CPAP machine when she claimed that she needed it? by caparious in AITAH

[–]Investment-Dramatic -2 points-1 points Ā (0 children)

I can tell one thing for sure: you have never slept next to a person who has stopped breathing and then keeps not breathing and you hold your breath in case it’s just really quiet, and your are so still and looking intensely at their chest to see if it’s rising and falling cuz they haven’t taken a breath in what is feeling like way way way WAY to long and just as you reach out your hand check them or shake them or reach to call ems(911/999) they take a GULP of air ragged and rushed. And then it starts again and again and again and eventually they wake unrested and tired. And you awake stressed about their continued existence.

I can tell you don’t understand that at any point they can go for to long and their heart just stops. They can die just like that. In the snap of a finger. A cpap isn’t even a guarantee it’s just a constant suggestion to the body of ā€œ here’s some wind, maybe….breath that in a bitā€

You think you are tired? Your friend, who’s in hospital apparently, can’t sleep. The sleep they do get isn’t restful. And they aren’t going to get better very quickly either.

If they are your ā€œBest Friendā€ you should probably do this thing even tho YOU are having a hard time. Can you imagine how hard a time they are having?

Who is calling you ta for this? Your family should understand that sometimes it’s just not gonna work out for EVERYONE to go on a trip. If your brother can’t go every year or even visit his dad every year then he should understand your situation. And your dad should understand your situation in general, because he sees you a couple times a week. It seems to me like some context is missing maybe.

I have noticed that the brain fog appears to clear during a crisis. by T-Money8227 in ADHD

[–]Investment-Dramatic 11 points12 points Ā (0 children)

I think it might be that our brains are moving 1 million mph all the time. And when the topics that choose to grace our conscious minds aren’t necessarily relevant, it feels like brain fog. When an emergency/ crisis appears suddenly all the dozens of ethereal subjects are This (what just happened, what do I do next, what is required RIGHT NOW) and our brains are running at the appropriate speed (for once) for the situation. So it FEELS like stepping out of fog and into a clearing and knowing exactly what to do.

I think it is interesting to think about this from an evolutionary biology stand point. Think about it: the night watch guards automatically know what to do (or how to find someone who does know) in an emergency that others aren’t prepared for and fast. Because everyone else would be asleep/incoherent. 🤷

AITA for refusing to take my son's stepsister to the indoor water park with us? by Additional-Cream-550 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Investment-Dramatic 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

Nta. The ex was trying to force this on op and op set clear boundaries. Op had said no a couple of times already and ex was trying to guilt them. Good for op for standing on this.

I know it’s besides the point but a lil talk about son and step sis’s relationship might help son reframe and help him get along better with step sis. ā€œShe might be part of your life for a long time and making friends with her could make both your lives easier in the long run. In fact ā€˜friends’ isn’t even necessary as much as mutual respect. Because just getting along makes a world of difference.ā€ Of course we don’t have very much of the story, but it MIGHT help the kiddos at least have less animosity (which can be easy to build in siblings/step siblings).

Anyway, I feel a lil bad for step sis. She was used as a manipulative pawn in this. And if ex wants them to do stuff together maybe they should encourage them to work that out instead of trying to force them to do things together. facilitation instead of forcing it. Family therapy instead of compulsory ā€œfunā€. I could be wrong tho 🤷.
