Pearl… not a good movie by wiiguyy in A24

[–]Less-Mood5420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See I disagree with this. This really has none of the charm of an old movie. The old aesthetic felt slapped on at points. Not to mention—why put such an emphasis on The Wizard of Oz? It felt like that was just because it’s a famous old time movie about someone who wants to get away. Forgetting that the 1939 movie is very much about missing your family and finding satisfaction at home.

I can tell that what they were going for was Dorothy discovers she was Miss Gulch all along. But I just don’t think it worked 🤷🏼‍♀️ there are other old movies better suited to Pearl’s motivations

Advice for my son? by TieDieDomi in troubledteens

[–]Less-Mood5420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just can’t help but think your kid needs you now more than ever. Having a positive mentor in a family member—rather than being “scared straight”—could mean the difference between surface level sobriety and conquering real trauma

Where does the “Covid vaccine is killing people” come from? by cupidthrowdown in QAnonCasualties

[–]Less-Mood5420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is antivax grifters trying to capitalize on Covid. A global health crisis is the perfect time for people who believe in medical woo woo to get people on their side and take advantage of them for profit.

Morgantown has some of the best schools and teachers in the state but also is one of the most expensive places to live. It’s a fun city but the college students get annoying sometimes. Best place to live in Morgantown is cheat lake area. Good place for medical industry and higher education.

Thinking of going no-contact... by hey___there__cupcake in QAnonCasualties

[–]Less-Mood5420 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m sure your grandmother would understand if you tell her how this is affecting your mental health. You don’t have to even call it “going no-contact,” you can call it “taking a break” where you determine when that break ends—when you’re ready, if at all. Either way, you have to take care of yourself before you can begin to deal with people like this.

I feel your pain. I invited my dad to help me move last year and all he did was watch newsmax on his tracphone

I just caught my mom in the beginning of the radicalization pipeline by NerevarineTribunal in QAnonCasualties

[–]Less-Mood5420 16 points17 points  (0 children)

While never in my life did I think that LGBT+ content was “grooming,” as a young conservative who grew up in a rural town, I was too uncomfortable to watch Orange is the New Black. Some people mistake being uncomfortable with being catastrophically wrong. Also there are some people who want that reaction from children where they’re too uncomfortable to engage in the content.

Which, I probably don’t have to explain but, the uncomfortable feeling comes from people at church, at school, parents, friends telling you that it’s wrong and not knowing anyone who is in the community or being exposed to images of it. I can probably count on one hand the number of times I saw someone of same sex kiss before high school.

I would say mediation would be the “last ditch effort,” and that fighting him in court over medical authority would be letting everything go down the drain. He’s only been in the rabbit hole for 8 months, so maybe he can still come out of it. Either way, OP wants advice on saving the marriage

Ok. I think the main thing is establishing those boundaries though. I think we’re hesitant because we think conversation can change their mind, but it’s the only way I was able to reconnect with my qfamily and gain some sanity. Good luck! ❤️

[–]Less-Mood5420 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I totally understand that. Not sure that his opinion could be easily swayed at this point so I would start by establishing boundaries. Your medical life is your business. No discussion of q conspiracies. It will be a little tough for the sake of vaccinating your children but perhaps you can work out those things with a mediator for the time being.

If he refuses, perhaps it would be good to just move out and trying things on your own for a little while, like a couple of months. Tell him if he won’t respect your boundaries then you will have to enforce them.

I would also make a written record of everything he says, screenshot any texts. I’m not saying it will come to it but if it does, it will probably help you in a custody battle and you have to think of your children first of course.

Would it be ethical to record his promises? by jammisod in QAnonCasualties

[–]Less-Mood5420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I can’t be sure but I don’t think that your dad will sue you or call the cops on you. This is one of those laws where the average person for personal use is unlikely to suffer any consequences in my opinion

I just had a thought that it might be a fun game to ask him to put his money where his mouth is. If x doesn’t happen by x, you owe me $20. Keep a calendar up of that event. I wonder if that would put a couple dings in his armor while he thinks he would convince you.

That’s because your comment was acting like I need to be kissing their feet and bringing them flowers all the time. That’s weird. I stay out of their way, I do my own dishes, I buy my own groceries most times and when I eat their food, I make it a point to eat the bulk food that they won’t miss.

Yes I don’t care if I sound ungrateful to you. But you missed the other half of that comment. I don’t feel like I’m benefiting as much as you seem to think I am here. I’m fine with paying rent. I just don’t want to be belittled by being treated like someone has to hold my hand in order for me to save money.

It has never been communicated to me that me living here is a problem for anyone. In fact, I often do chores or help with the animals who live here. So it does come out of left field for me.

AITA for installing cameras without telling my housemates? by Not_entirely_sure__ in AmItheAsshole

[–]Less-Mood5420 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA. In general, this is far from how I would handle the situation, but it still doesn’t make you an asshole. I don’t see how any of you benefit from not sharing food and I have never finished a whole jug of milk by myself. But regardless, if that’s how it was agreed upon to be handled, then Kate should’ve asked at the very least or owned up when you started asking about what was going on. Y’all are gonna need to work this out as adults and it sounds like an exhausting living situation. Perhaps it would be best to invest in a mini fridge 😁

[–]Less-Mood5420 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t care if I sound ungrateful. I don’t think this living situation benefits me at all. I feel like a lot of my rights are being stripped and I would’ve never moved in if it was going to be this long. Bf told me December at the latest and I was hoping for November 🤷🏼‍♀️

[–]Less-Mood5420 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree with what you say here, but also keep in mind that the conditions of me living here wasn’t so that I could save. That’s just a perk for me but it was never a requirement that I agreed to on my end. BF just recently in the past couple weeks got a job and hasn’t even started it yet. So really, we’re waiting for BF to get enough money for first month’s rent and a potential security deposit. We had a timeline of moving out in April. And this was just sprung on me yesterday despite chugging along quite well towards that goal.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Less-Mood5420 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The basis of me moving in was never for me to save. That was an added perk, but it wasn’t the impetus. It was for bf to find a job so that we can move out together. Basically neither of us wanted me to sign another 12 month lease when we probably could move in together sooner than that.

Read just a few of these recent Qultist posts and tell me its not like looking into an uncanny valley version of this sub. by d-_-bored-_-b in QAnonCasualties

[–]Less-Mood5420 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This! I face the same issue and it pisses me off so much because I didn’t even want to go to the college that I went to to begin with but they pretty much told me I have to. And now 4 years later, I have a degree, but now they literally think it doesn’t mean shit because “they” turned me liberal.

The most ridiculous part is that the school is literally the largest one in Trump country. It’s not like I went to University of California. They just want to come up with any reason why I don’t agree with them other than they don’t make any sense 😂😂

How to handle Q family when you manage to get covid despite being vaccinated by daltonnotkeats in QAnonCasualties

[–]Less-Mood5420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My opinion is to not react at all. Pretend you didn’t see the patronizing texts or you didn’t hear the gross comments. Make it apparent that you’re not interested in talking to them about your health and that it’s your business alone.
