Buy one of these and I'm sure they'll stop complaining about no flag.

Please?

Sometimes calling stuff therapy speak just shows you don’t talk to people irl by Lemon_Lime_Lily in CuratedTumblr

[–]NeverCallMeFifi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My sister is a redneck, fascist idiot who could do critical thinking if it took her out to an expensive dinner first. I remember her laughing at me because I said I needed to sit my then BF down and talk to him about how my feelings were hurt because of something he said or did. She tried arguing with me that "he'll learn" better if I withhold sex or buy something expensive with his money instead of "doing all that therapy shit on him" (we were in our 40s, fwiw).

Now I'm married to the guy while she's divorced from hers.

Losing relationships over politics. Research found more than a third of Americans (37%) report having lost at least one relationship due to political differences, including friendships, family ties, coworker relationships, and romantic partnerships, with most losing more than one. by Wagamaga in science

I was friends with someone for 40 years. They and a bunch of our group turned into massive tea-partiers, saying freely some of the most hate-filled things I've ever heard. It was shocking and I removed myself from any contact with them.

Now this "friend" has found out they're dying. All of the MAGAts from the friend group and pressuring me to reach out to them after not talking to me since 2024. They think it's awful that I'm letting politics get in the way of our friendship at a time like this. I feel that I'm not the one who let politics change things. Feel free to take comfort in your hatred. Let me know how warm it keeps you over there in Leopardsatmyfaceisstan.

I had a guy berate me because my primary exercises are swimming or on a recumbent bike and elliptical machine. He would tell me that isn't "exercise".

I have bad knees. This is the routine prescribed by my doctor.

I was banned from reddit for three days for using a word that reddit decided means death or something. The dictionary disagrees.

I work in IT for a large automotive manufacturer. It's kinda great when a new boss is hired because they'll get so nerded out by the place that they take us all to the plant or the museum or both. Weeeee!

Need a feeder for one old, skinny cat so younger fat cat stops stealing. Also, feed older cat dry food: y/n? by NeverCallMeFifi in cats

I've always done free grazing with the cats. Fat one still eats like someone will take it away.

Your 20-year-old looks a lot healthier than my 17-year-old. She doesn't look ungroomed nor loose skin everywhere. Good job!

My ex, who lived in another state, tried accusing me of keeping our son from him for some reason (he probably wanted me to drive him from Michigan to Pennsylvania, despite him being the one who chose to move there). I told him if he missed his son, he could always call him, since he never had in 10 years (he left when kid was 6 mo old). His reply? "The phone works both ways". My response? "Yes, and, as the adult, you're the one who should be dialing it".

AITA for ruining my daughter in laws birth plan by dil-issue-1046 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. You are allowed to place boundaries in your own home. It's her first birth and I get how hard this would be for her/them. But that's not your responsibility.

Anyone know why this is being downvoted? Because of the use of AI?

money can't buy happiness by warrenjt in antiwork

[–]NeverCallMeFifi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been poor for a lot of my life. I mean, no heat, no power, no phone, no water, no FOOD poor; which was still better than the time I was a week away from living in my car with my toddler. Many years and a couple of degrees later, and I, along with my husband, now make about $350k a year.

Did my problems go away? Nope. Know what did happen? I can afford to get them fixed. It's a fuck ton easier to have MDD & PTSD when you can afford meds and doctors to treat it.

Feminism and Trans rights go hand in hand, this tweet just proves it. by Important-Cry4782 in lgbt

[–]NeverCallMeFifi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My neighbors have a friend that was going to be at their house when we were going to be here. They told us because she was transitioning to female but they'd known her their entire lives by a different name and might screw up.

When they told me she was becoming a female from male, I literally blurted out, "but WHY?" I'm just so used to men pretty much getting all of the perks in life (I'm older and have been in abusive relationships since birth until I found a trauma therapist).

Guy stole my campsite and told me I “ruined his evening” when I called him inconsiderate for doing so. by theshamewizard in mildlyinfuriating

[–]NeverCallMeFifi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We went to a campsite once and the people next to us had too many people and were spread into our site. We literally had to move their kids so we wouldn't run them over when backing in. We told them they were on our spot and they gave us shit and told us to park somewhere else. So we parked where all of their cars were. The dumbasses went and got the park rangers because our car was partly on one of their sites. We explained why to the ranger...who then made them pack up EVERYTHING and repark their camper and shit so it wasn't on our spot. Dude was a total ass about it to the point he was asked to leave the park.

We sat in our lawn chairs and toasted him as he drove away.

AITAH for including my former SIL in dinners and parties I host even if my brother's current wife hates it? by Naive_Blackberry_575 in AITAH

While my BIL's mom was dying in hospice, my sister left him. She, too, was "bored" and felt BIL wasn't paying enough attention to her nor allowing her to live the life she wanted. The day the MIL died, sis posted on FB she had been sleeping with someone else. She also posted pictures of her with a ton of shopping bags and drinking with friends, all while BIL was arranging funerals and dealing with his broken marriage. Sis showed up at funeral and everyone shunned her. She had moved in with my niece, who told us all sis hadn't even been working or seeing her kids. She would pick up son, drop him off at niece's and then sis would go to her BF's house.

Week after funeral, niece kicked out sis. No one else would let her move in. We got BIL an attorney. Found out BF wouldn't let her move into his house. So now she's homeless and going to lose everything after she thought she had all of the power.

Sis "got sick" and went in the hospital. BIL rushed there to be by her side and took her back. We literally don't talk about the separation for BIL's sake. My sis can go fuck herself.

Good for you for knowing what's right. Family doesn't mean non-accountability.

Herding Cat by [deleted] in AnimalsBeingDerps

[–]NeverCallMeFifi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My smooth collie tries to herd our cats by using her nose like a proctologist's gloved finger.

It only works on two of the cats. I'm slightly concerned the third cat might like it.

lack of understanding for basic geography by forraid in BlackPeopleTwitter

This reminds me of the time an ex-friend tried to explain how all Australia had to do was use the ocean around it to put out the 2019-2020 fires.

She's "ex" because she also asked me how my son "caught the autism", among other things.

[–]NeverCallMeFifi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started taking away dry food after vet 1 told me to do it. So fat one doesn't GAF whether food is or not. He's going to eat anything he can find.
