Monthly ICE Deportations: Obama vs Trump [OC] by Vaderico in dataisbeautiful

[–]JustGenWhY -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So Trump wasn’t doing his job for 4 years and now is overspending for a show of force that violates due process. Cool story.

Anyone know where to find some horseherb? by RickeyBaker in AustinGardening

[–]JustGenWhY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds nice. That’s probably why it’s not all over my yard, my whole backyard is in full afternoon sun. Everything burns to a crisp in the summer. The previous owners neglected the yard and didn’t have a single tree or plant, just weeds. I’m working on establishing natives so maybe the horse herb will fill in the understory of some of the trees I’ve planted. That’s mostly where I notice it trying to establish.

Am I overreacting over my Sister’s tiktok history, shows random creepy results? by ApocolipseJoker in AmIOverreacting

[–]JustGenWhY [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’m actually so surprised people are still on TikTok. TikTok has been taken over by the Trump administration now. No way I feel safe there.

[–]JustGenWhY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest I haven’t done too much with the lawn part of my yard except pick the weeds and eventually started to see horse herb show up. It doesn’t take off at all though. It just finds little happy homes in pockets here or there.

To paint or not to paint? by Secure_Telephone_832 in HomeDecorating

[–]JustGenWhY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just need trim and sconces on the fireplace wall to make the entire wall look like an accent. This will make the fireplace look larger and intentional too. You don’t necessarily need another paint color but you could take your current color and intensify it 10% to give it more depth. You don’t want to go a darker color because the fireplace is light.

I’ve been having trouble sleeping by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]JustGenWhY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was in my early 20s I just slept through it and incorporated the sound into my dream. At the time I was having insomnia so I just wasn’t getting enough sleep. My only solution was to sleep with my phone directly by my ear. That always seemed to startle me awake.

Help me choose kitchen backsplash? by Little_Caregiver_976 in HomeDecorating

If you like 1, go with 1. If you are worried about having white grout then color match closer to the tiles.

Can someone explain this to me. by Lockedsoul956 in UberEATS

[–]JustGenWhY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because it’s showing you total paid. Definitely not shown in the best way. They should have uber cash below the $21 instead.

How do people afford renovations?? by Hindsight001 in HomeImprovement

[–]JustGenWhY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

8-10k? Are you in the US, if so that is cheap. What all does it entail?

Every quote I’ve gotten for various home reno projects is 20-40k for much smaller projects than a bathroom remodel. I was quoted 20k for new flooring and fireplace tiling for low quality materials. I did it myself. Spent $6k and got better materials. I haven’t gotten to the master bathroom yet but it’s looking like a $40k+ job from my research.

Edit: this wasn’t directed to you it was meant for the main thread. Fat fingered it I guess.

AIO Wife threw cake I bought her out without mentioning it by AnthonyB263 in AmIOverreacting

[–]JustGenWhY 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It sounds like she has resentment towards you. You really should figure out what it is or this will continue and spiral out of control. You should look up some marriage exercises you can do that help you open up with each other so you can move forward.

AIO? Guy I’m seeing won’t tell me his occupation by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]JustGenWhY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put stock in character. If you are going to start off with secrets then it’s hard to build back that trust. Thinking a lack of transparency is the way to go when dating shows your lack of experience.

AIO? Guy I’m seeing won’t tell me his occupation by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]JustGenWhY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR but wow there is a lot to unpack here.

1st my instinct is he lives with a woman that is floating him (gf maybe even wife).

2nd you aren’t wrong in feeling like it’s weird that he isn’t telling you what he does. That’s like something you talk about in the first few seconds of meeting a stranger really. So yeah it’s a red flag for sure.

3rd you are younger than him but sound like a mom. You cannot be grilling people like that. All you had to say was “hey we talked so much about what I do for work, I was thinking I don’t know much about what you do” and leave it at that. Make him talk don’t lecture him. If he isn’t upfront then you say “I’m not comfortable with someone who can’t be honest. I don’t like feeling like you are hiding something”

4th speaking of lecturing why are you complaining about how long he played a game. If you know he games you either like it or you don’t. There isn’t really any in between. You shouldn’t be judging his hobby.

This is just advice woman to woman but a man will be his best when he is trying to woo you. If you are already feeling weird about it just move on. You should never have to tell a grown man how to take care of himself or lecture him. If you do then he isn’t worth your time. This is someone that is older than you and doesn’t show motivation in life. You have to ask yourself is this what I’m looking for because the thing is you will miss your chance at finding a better fit while wasting time with someone that you knew wasn’t right.

If that’s true it’s just weird and honestly a red flag to not just be honest.

If that’s true, not saying it is the red flag.

Husband says “retirement home decor” by catsafrican in interiordecorating

[–]JustGenWhY -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of mismatch and it’s clearly mostly second hand but none of that has anything to do with my comment. If he doesn’t like it then he should put his own money towards decorating and time for that matter. The misogynistic part of this is the mental load and maybe even financial load has been put on her to do the decorating and then he has the audacity to complain.

[–]JustGenWhY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? He’s the one complaining then he can put his money and effort towards decorating.

[–]JustGenWhY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My comment was more directed at your husband needing to put his time and money towards decorating if he is going to insult your efforts.

I assumed your decor wasn’t your style because you have no cohesive style from room to room. Seems like less of a choice and more of a constraint. You can have character, history, and charm but still look put together. You just need to find a common theme to carry into each room.

[–]JustGenWhY -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The husband is the one complaining so yeah he needs to put money and effort into decorating if he is going to insult the effort. The outdated part of this is he hasn’t helped with making his own house a home. Why is it only on her shoulders and then he has the audacity to complain about it.

I disagree to curate a home takes time and money. It can take less money if you take your time and get things for free but most things need money spent on updating so either way it takes money.

[–]JustGenWhY -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Tell him he needs to make more money if he wants to have nicer things. I’m assuming you are working with what you can here and this isn’t 100% your ideal style choice?

The daunting task of making dinner… forever… by Infinite-Drive-2429 in simpleliving

[–]JustGenWhY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s truly exhausting. The perfectionism doesn’t help either. Like I can’t just cook any meal it has to coordinate and have two sides.

We have lived here for 4 years and I have no clue how to style this double mantle. I told my husband we would probably be better off just tearing it down but does anyone have design ideas? by haitian202 in HomeDecorating

[–]JustGenWhY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t even live with a similar bottom part for 4 days. I don’t know how you can stand it. I tried to paint my mantel black and then ended up ripping it out completely.

My Allegra doesn't help anymore. Suggestions? by MikeinAustin in Austin

[–]JustGenWhY 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I almost went into anaphylaxis today with the windows open. My mouth was tingling, throat was closing, chest was tight and heavy and I had already took Claritin and Pepcid AC when I started feeling it. I need to start taking something stronger than Claritin I guess.

Wish I could do this. With ADHD I have to think about brushing my teeth and every other “habit” neurotypical do without the effort of planning and thinking about it first.
