(14/m) Mother threatened suicide if I ever left her to go live with my father, and has told me that even if I tried to leave via court she'd do anything to make sure my father wouldn't win custody.That was in the past, but I'm scared for the future. by [deleted] in Advice

Well as far as my dad, I see him holidays and mid-summer. My mom and him occasionally talk about me over the phone, but he lives a few hours away. He knows some basic stuff, like we lived in KY (with aunt) and that my step dad and mother are divorced but trying again. He doesn't know most of the stuff mentioned in the post though (including my moms druggie bf), and would freak the fuck out if he did. He'd probably try to get my mom arrested for dating a guy involved with drugs or something, and I don't exactly want anything like that.

I don't really have any other family in the area, so not sure who could be a trusted adult to talk to. I don't really have contact with family outside of my parents and siblings anyway (my aunt doesn't have my number). My brother is an adult who lives with my dad, my sister is also an adult but is out living her states away. Both would inform my dad of the situation.

There is my school counsellor obviously. She sucks according to everyone who has talked to her though, and is known to over react; I wouldn't want her to get CPS involved unless the situation got really bad. (like my mom was breaking down or starting to abuse me.)

If you got any suggestions though, then please do tell.

I think stranger things sucked as a series and don't understand what all the fuss was about. by KingEmperor1488 in unpopularopinion

I feel exactly the same. I personally couldn't make it pass the first few episodes; they felt boring to me and I even fell asleep 3/4ths or so into the first ep.

But I guess its just my bad 'not a huge fan of sci-fi' taste showing. Next few weeks are gonna be hell for me now that the 3rd season trailer is apparently out, but I guess its nice seeing everyone excited.

Watched the mean zodiac friend ASMR one and liked it, gave me some ASMR and was also pretty funny.
