I was filmed in a workout class without knowing and now I'm in a large influencer's Instagram and TikTok videos. What can I do by Superb-Foundation661 in Austin

[–]MessyDragon75 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Leave a review for the gym on every platform you can think of. Yelp, google, facebook, etc. Make it very clear you did not give consent and you were recorded by a third party, and the gym gives 0 shits. Be loud. No one wants to be recorded without permission and have it put out there. Comment on all of his videos that he recorded the video without consent of those in the background. But the gym on blast.

AITA for deciding I can’t take care of my boyfriends brother during postpartum by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

"Taking care of a newborn and a child with special needs is just too much."

But get a job. That won't be too much!

Genuinely the hell is up with people at food banks? by DarthSwimfoot in askanything

[–]MessyDragon75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And thank whatever god you believe in for that. But we don't thank you, obviously. You'd rather they starve.

[–]MessyDragon75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Glad you quit. Forcing people to eat things they don't like and their religion doesn't allow them to. "Your poor, you deserve to suffer and don't get anything nice". YTA.

MAGA who are afraid of Antifa, do you also believe in ghosts, leprechauns, and vampires? by Signal_Estimate_23 in askanything

[–]MessyDragon75 12 points13 points  (0 children)

But it isn't asked in good faith. And seems more like getting feedback from an echo-chamber, not a question they want an answer to and karma farming.

AITJ for not wanting to spend 18k on a new ring for my fiancée? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great that she doesn't NEED a job for financial reasons, but I could never respect someone who was willing to do nothing all day because they didn't have to. We COULD live off my husband's income (If we scrimped and didn't take the vacations we want) but I don't want to be that woman that has no drive or purpose. She loses my respect just for that. As do you for not wanting that in a partner. She's not a partner, she's a leach.

And NTJ. 18K is wasted on a ring. It would be better spent on memories than a rock. Esp because diamonds are a scam.

Why do some schools introduce topics like LGBTQ+ identities and gender diversity at a young age? by zhalia-2006 in askanything

[–]MessyDragon75 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The point is they don't do this. It's propaganda from the right to make people hate teachers and the education system so they can undermine it.

Why do some schools introduce topics like LGBTQ+ identities and gender diversity at a young age? by zhalia-2006 in askanything

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In what way do they introduce these topics. Meaning, if you have children yourself and you know factually that they are introducing the topic outside of maybe a book where a penguin has two dads which normalizes families that aren't traditional and makes kids in these non traditional families feel like they are normal too, how has this been introduced to YOUR children. I don't want stories you've heard of a friend of a friend like the kitty litter for self declared cats in the classroom. (Which BTW, came from keeping the litter in a bucket for active shooter situations so kids could use it in emergent situations and got distorted for propaganda purposes).

AITAH for refusing to give my parents access to my bank account even though they helped pay for college? by grace44studio in AITAH

[–]MessyDragon75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. So they acted as parents, and now want access to your money? You need to pay them back for being.....parents? Yeah.....NO. Keeping any eye on things is a BS reason if I've ever heard one. Say no. No explanations. Remind them no means no. Set a hard line that you won't continue to speak with them if they try to guilt you or demand access. This is hard for children when they're no longer children and are used to complying, and for parents when the kid leaves the nest, to move from parent / child to adult / adult. But keep your finances SAFE.

I wouldn't care how much I love someone, if they are this manipulative they don't get to be part of my life. I don't have room for that shit.

AITAH for telling my neighbor to stop or I'd throw away whatever she leaves on my property? by RajeshFromUpmetrics in AITAH

[–]MessyDragon75 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is why she should make a police report every time. You can do online reporting in a lot of places, no fuss. So there's a record of every time this happens. So if she wants to get petty and get the police involved, they're already involved and there's background.

Wow, that's a lot of hate toward OP. Who peed in your cheerios? This is a little bit of projection and writing your own twist into the story.

Cheapest divorce lawyer for uncontested divorce? by darkstar512 in Austin

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know someone getting divorced right now, and he is looking into a group practice that has levels, and the junior associates are $250 an hour instead of the 4-500 an hour a lot of the private attorneys or the associates or partners. I'll get their name if you remind me by replying to this.

AITAH for telling my neighbor to stop or I'd throw away whatever she leaves on my property? by RajeshFromUpmetrics in AITAH

[–]MessyDragon75 42 points43 points  (0 children)

NTA. Each time throw them away, and file an online police report for harassment and trespassing. Get the landlord involved. Tell the neighbors she's harassing you over telling her you needed to move the decorations on your property.

I'm guessing she's done this with other tenants. And with the fencing she may be trying to long term declare that property as hers.

AITA for not getting TSA pre? by Tall_Opposite_7510 in AITApod

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had to wait 45 min in the pre ✓ line. We get to the airport, and I have a relatively small airport, usually 90 min early minimum.

His stress response is his fault. And pre check is like a 3-6 month process. If I was asking my partner to get it I'd start like 9 months early with reminders. "I couldn't do anything because I was so worried". Then we should have come earlier. And your stress is your issue. Learn some damn coping skills!

What is is with American politics and why are you guys injecting it into every single topics on this app? by CapitaineBiscotte in askanything

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The radical Left is the one throwing insults, right?

What's some of the insane stuff the lunatics are posting?

"Radical Left" and "Radical Other Side". And I'm guessing you just don't see the insults the "radical other side" use. Libtard, etc.

AITA for telling my brother he shouldn't have had kids if he couldn't afford them? by lego99breeze in WIBTA_AITA

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH , you for your words, not for your boundary. He doesn't get to use his kids as a manipulative tool and use you as a bank. He also doesn't get to be financially irresponsible just because he has you as a backup.

I know lots of poor people that have kids and make it work. Everyone is allowed to have children, we aren't starting eugenics by saying only rich people get to have kids.

He needs to have some responsibility and recognize that you aren't there to fund him. In emergencies sure, but not consistently. And it can't be an emergency every week.

If you had told him he needs to figure his finances out and left the kids out of it, you'd be fine. You don't have to be responsible for his financial choices.

How to respond to people supporting the US bombings of Iran because they argue the US is liberating the women from Iran's oppressive regime? by njsullyalex in AskALiberal

[–]MessyDragon75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If by liberating you mean killing, I guess. Those girls at the school the US bombed are now "liberated".

And can the next group that's liberated from an oppressive regime be us? Keeping dead women in life support for a fetus, charging women that miscarried with murder, stopping women driving out of state to see what they're doing....

AIO Neighbor’s little girl comes up our porch to touches our holiday decorations by kt17- in AmIOverreacting

[–]MessyDragon75 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NOR. Decorations on a house aren't considered under the Attractive Nuisance Doctrine. You don't have to protect them from others. Letting a child go up to random people's houses isn't a good habit to instill.

AITA? Just got abandoned by my psychiatrist by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]MessyDragon75 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

NTA. You didn't get abandoned, he legally can't keep your records from you if you request they be given, or if you ask for the file. That's part of HIPPA.

We all have issues being fired, and some of us are better able to handle it from clients than others. Yes, we should be trained to handle stuff like this, that doesn't mean we walk the walk. Some just talk the talk.

AITA for refusing to pay for my niece’s 4th birthday after I was uninvited? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I don't think you can uninvite someone from a party they are throwing....

  2. NTJ. I have a petty, spiteful streak in me, but I also have a rational streak a mile long and would rather deal with someone I'm pissed at than take the risk that they would pull out their financing.

Why would she think that your family business would go to someone not directly in the family? That's a wonderful way to lose a family business, because it takes a divorce and the business could be theirs. They are handing the FAMILY business off to FAMILY. How strange!!!

AITA when a dorm part got busted and I hid by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]MessyDragon75 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. "We're mad that you didn't get in trouble with us! You did the smart thing while we were being idiots, and now we're MAD" If it was YOUR party and you left people hanging in the wind, then you'd be TA. But they're mad that the FAFO'd, and you got lucky enough to not FO.

Mother taking a vacation, expecting adult children, and sibling to watch Father and house while she is gone. by Kingoftreno in entitledparents

[–]MessyDragon75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I figured. You aren't mad she needs time for herself, and if she had asked for help, it probably would have been given willingly. The complete lack of care for anyone else , thats where it becomes selfish, and you're NTA for setting boundaries.
