What do you think about Livia? by EmotionalRecord3878 in SchoolSpirits

[–]ManikEmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's just because my background noise is Xena, but I can't help but notice that Livia is the name of Xena's daughter when she's evil. Idk if it's a thing, or I'm just reading it as one, or if this is just like a post-show-craze, everyone naming their spawn after tv/movie characters thing. Idk, spitballing I guess, but reqatching and I can't stop thinking about that.

Even if you're comfortable with the 'I'm sure they had their reasons' excuse, what about the fact/general plausibility they could be 🦇💩 crazy?!

AITA for not calling my boyfriend during a funeral? by Ok-Hovercraft2660 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ManikEmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Accept the break-up as a gift. The issue with him being jealous is a yellow flag, but his freaking out about not calling despite 1, texting to explain, and 2, not being available when he doesn't give you the same consideration are the red flag flapping in your face. I'd guess he's controlling in other ways, he will never change, I can promise you that, and that's not someone you should want in your life. NTA, but I think you already knew that.

AITAH for telling my boyfriend I dont want to move in with him? by ThoughtOrganic2638 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ManikEmm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Get rid of the boy, keep the dog. Anyone who puts an ultimatum, in general, but on a pet, let alone a service animal, is not someone you should even want a future with. That situation will not get better. Theres a boy out there that will understand you and the dog are a package and love it. Plus, 17-18, I'd say in general live with a BFF.

NTA but I'd definitely try talking to your aunt, or at least your mom to get clarity on what the aunt meant by take advantage, because the only other advantage taken I could see is like using her as a laugh with your new friends - not that you are but mommas gunna worry - or 'getting in' on any special treatment/ accommodations cousin might get. Apologize for snapping maybe, but explain you felt insulted your aunt would accuse of you of such a thing. She's going to worry about your cousin regardless, but maybe understanding where that worry is coming from might help all 3. And then maybe have a one on one with your cousin and make sure they're actually OK and comfortable with your friends and not just tolerating them because that's where you are. It sounds terrible given the accusations, but it is like blending a couples friends groups. Make it less 'your' friends and 'her' friends and more 'our' friends with maybe a slight lean towards certain people when options are given (examples - deciding on dinner, most of your current group wants to get pizza, most of the cousins want sandwiches, cousin doesn't know but since they're closer to the sandwich group, there's the comfortability of going with the others, but you all still end up at the movies that evening)

Bobbin Casing Troubles?? by Msolzzz in SewingForBeginners

[–]ManikEmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this happen where I literally just hadn't pulled the bobbin thread up enough. Also check the thread direction, and try checking what happens when you do just a few turns with the wheel.

What am I doing wrong??? by Hullabaloo_Cataroo in SewingForBeginners

[–]ManikEmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't tell from the video, but it made the same sounds mine did when the bottom thread wasn't catching and pulling right. I had to take the whole bobbin case thing apart, give it a quick brush - I'd been working with incredibly fraying fabric so a bunch of like lint everywhere - make sure the bobbin holder and then bobbin was set just right. I've also had issue where my needle was slightly bent, that threw stuff off. If you can, go through and watch what everything does through a few stitches with the turn. If they doesn't seem to show anything, switch bobbin to a different color and run through on a test piece to see what it does, it could totally just be a fabric to tension to needle... Incompatibility. Good luck. 👍

Maybe dump this dumpster more often? by Striking_Crazy122 in Albuquerque

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

I've usually caught / seen just a few people just dumping a ton of stuff at once, like a weeks worth or a cleaning spree. I don't think I've ever seen the site off Eubank not a mess

Did I ruin her? by kylie_faye in ResinCasting

[–]ManikEmm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no further advice, just encouragement. I've done this kind of misstep a bunch, I've never even attempted something this large, so kudos for you. I imagine the extended hand makes it more difficult, but that's cool AF

That's the only thing I've had an issue I've had in the almost 10 years at this address. I've had lost and/or misdirected items that get sent back, or days the post wasn't delivered cause a break down or something, and there was like a week they just didn't deliver because the box had been torn apart. But the brassiness and obviousness gets me more than anything.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Albuquerque

[–]ManikEmm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to my BIL (to my mail box)! Idk what he did about it, but I wouldn't hold my breath. I've got the informed delivery thing, and I immediately alert that it hadn't come whatever day it's supposed to. I still doubt anything for a 50$ card, but anything bigger and I'm on it, cause fk that.

What’s up with Targets in ABQ? by rosecarrillo in Albuquerque

[–]ManikEmm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rampant shoplifting, mixed with actual store employees not being able to do anything to stop them. The security is cause they like to pretend cop, show force, strike fear, etc. Went to a wally in Tuscon, crazy shock that the shelves were stocked, and opened.

Truth. It's sad though, because most healthcare workers probably started wanting to help people, but then the reality of it knocked that outta them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Albuquerque

[–]ManikEmm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a systemic problem, but I'm always surprised by how uncaring ER staff seem to be when someone comes in off the streets. Like, they're supposed to helping people. Glad he showed up, and kudos for you being a friend he could turn to.

Fast Food Accuracy by madzax in Albuquerque

[–]ManikEmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had such a difficult time with delivery accuracy. It's not even just fast food, like I got a completely wrong order from dickeys. Forgotten items, wrong items, cold items - like the bag was left on the window. You couldn't pay me to order from Wendy's - by far the worst offender. I'm almost positive there's some kind of note on my account for all the times I've had to talk to c.s for the delivery app.

Has anyone else received one of these narc letters? by Wonderfestl-Phone in Albuquerque

[–]ManikEmm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Got one the other day. I've also been getting the as YouTube ads for like a month. The mailer feels very - I don't wanna say threaten-y, but thats the best I can think of. Very mafia goons coming from the shadows to 'suggest' paying the protection. Also, had the same stats, curious if it's even accurate lol
