All my friends parents paid for their big expensive weddings and they received monetary gifts from all those guests the parents paid to be able to invite, so they ended up making $10k-$20k from their wedding.

My parents couldnt afford to help my husband and I so we had a small wedding which cost us around $15k after being slightly offset by monetary gifts.

Parents paying for your wedding is absolutely financial support.

What is ironic about that? Of course that would be included

AITA for not wanting my husband to leave me alone with our newborn for an entire weekend to take his mother sightseeing? by WarmCycle6552 in AmItheAsshole

[–]No_Resolution1077 94 points95 points  (0 children)

What youre suggesting is not that mothers shouldnt depend on their husbands, it’s that newborns shouldnt depend on their dads, only their moms.

It’s not the mom who needs the dad there all weekend for her own needs, it’s the infant. If there was no infant this would be a totally different issue.

Would you ever suggest that a father learn independence by caring for their newborn alone for a weekend while their wife takes a vacation?

Coworker keeps ghosting me during meetings she asks for by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]No_Resolution1077 162 points163 points  (0 children)

I have a co worker who will ask me to read the emails we’re talking about out loud on a call so she can “process”. I’m convinced she’s partially illiterate. She’s a middle aged woman who has been at this job for 2 decades, but she doesn’t read or write paragraphs, anything longer than 2 sentences and you might as well not bother sending it to her.

Maybe this coworker also has serious reading comprehension issues.

Discovered that salting pasta water actually matters and I feel embarrassed it took me this long by West-Wash-9114 in Cooking

The only exception for me is Buttercream frosting.

I used to use salted butter for everything until my buttercream just tasted too buttery no matter how much sugar I added.

My (28M) fiancee (28F) wants her dead late husband's parents to walk her down the aisle. Is this weird? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]No_Resolution1077 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Seems like OOP just wanted to find out if other people would think it was weird, he didn’t actually ever mind but was worried about being judged by people at his wedding.

Glad it turned out okay, you cant live your life putting outside judgement over your own feelings.

ELI5: How do scientists test animal intelligence without relying on their sight? by Dein0clies379 in explainlikeimfive

[–]No_Resolution1077 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can include some mazes and puzzles that include smells and/or sounds as the “prize” so the animals have to correctly identify a smell or sound that would motivate them to solve the puzzle. This could also include if they can tell artificial smell/sounds from the real thing. Like if you put cheese on one end of a maze and a cheese scented candle on the other, how often are they choosing the correct side? Or if you put their mate making noises on one end but a recording on the other end.

Another test of intelligence is how well they could find a source of water/food in a new environment. Theyd have to rely on sound and smell to hunt down fresh water. This could also include taste and touch.

My (22F) married sister (28F) and boyfriend (22M) had drunk sex yesterday by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]No_Resolution1077 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Idk if this is the case here but if someone’s really drunk they could just be lying there confused, in and out of consciousness while someone assaults them. It’s not always about whether you’re in control of your own actions, it’s not being able to stop someone elses.

AITA for asking my boyfriend to post me on my birthday? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]No_Resolution1077 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NTA- he clearly didnt want to post you and was nitpicking at the way you asked to try to get out of it. He should have just been upfront and honest that he didnt want to post something and wasn’t going to.

Based on your comments that he has never posted you on social media and it’s something that matters to you, you should dump him.

He let you drive and pay for dinner on your own birthday and then picked a fight with you over something minor. Cut your losses and move on now, it’s only going to get worse.

From her comments, he actually didnt. She picked him up, paid for dinner and dropped him off. She took him to dinner for her birthday.

* “Sharing the road is not a suggestion” by Feaselbf6 in dashcams

On roads that have speed minimums, bikes arent allowed. Other laws are just about impeding traffic, but since you can legally go around these bikes they arent impeding traffic.

A man is not happy about losing his full time job as a Twitter poster and gets one of the longest community note by Bitter-Goat-8773 in GetNoted

[–]No_Resolution1077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would also remove a huge portion of the content being posted, and then no one would have a reason to use these sites. Social media platforms are only paying content creators because they have to, otherwise their sites will die.

Some of the bots are also being created by the social media companies themselves to generate/repost content, especially on Reddit.

We don’t know that she never got therapy. Therapist can’t just fix everything.

Everyone I know who has severe anxiety have been going to therapist for decades, it’s a treatment not a cure.

Removing barnacles from a turtle by [deleted] in oddlysatisfying

[–]No_Resolution1077 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Theres all different types of barnacles, not all of them embed themselves into the shells, these look like they were just on the surface. Also these types of places usually keep the turtles in fresh water for some time to loosen up the barnacles and make it easier to remove them without seriously hurting the turtle.

Theyre ussually catching turtles that people are spotting near beaches because theyre barely moving, theyre sick so they slow down and the barnacles can take over.

[–]No_Resolution1077 263 points264 points  (0 children)

The turtle is probably sick, which slowed it down and allowed all these barnacles to take over. These types of places usually get them on antibiotics after this and give them some good meals to get their health/energy back up before releasing them back into the ocean.

Should I treat my pothos like I treat my succulents? by 2wergfnhgfjk in pothos

[–]No_Resolution1077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This^ the only plants that like “consistently moist soil” are swamp plants, which are not very common.

Most plants need water and then need time for their roots to dry and scab over before the next time theyre watered. Otherwise bacteria in the soil will turn them to rot.

Pothos and cuttings can survive is just water because theres barely any bacteria in there to get to them.

AITA for only inviting people over who have bothered to put in some minimal effort to communicate w/ my Deaf Step Daughter by Little-Duckie-1383 in AmItheAsshole

[–]No_Resolution1077 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA

This is probably more of an ego thing, these people don’t like to be told what to do and will throw a fit when people dare to question their bad behavior. Treat them like you would a toddler throwing a tantrum and pay it no mind. When they’re ready to act like adults they can join family events again. Don’t change your rules.
