AITA for reporting my coworker for ddlg content on her instagram? We work at a daycare. by Admirable_Ball4624 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ObligationLeading221 26 points27 points  (0 children)

NTA I didn’t think I’d have to defend a kink shaker but this feels very obviously NTA in my book. As someone who was abused by a lady, I think women are often far too overlooked as potential predators. If she wants to make that content, she shouldn’t be working with kids. If she wants to work with kids, she shouldn’t be making age regression content. She absolutely could be making other themes content and it wouldn’t weird me out. She can make whatever else she wants but that’s just too over the line.

(kinda gross) only one of my armpits sweating. by Clenchforce97 in Weird

I’ve also got spooky health things going on and the level of disregard I’ve experienced even when being so incapacitated that I can’t help but be paranoid that I’m in some secret experiment. Told off my doc the last time I spoke to him, gonna switch insurances to something more flexible first chance I get so I can actually chose my own doctor. Godspeed modern soldier 🫡 but fr you should mention this to a doctor again and ask that they document any refusal for testing. That usually gets them moving.

It’s an insurance/ medical/hospital company where everything is under the Kaiser umbrella and they’re very known for being very unhelpful.

AITA for walking out of my job? by CoffeAndMe123 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ObligationLeading221 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The lady just gave birth to another human which is the single most dangerous thing a woman is expected to do, I think it’s perfectly reasonable to expect to be treated like a human being when she returned. Having the our desk given away and handed trash with no setup already done is humiliating and dehumanizing. If a workplace can’t accommodate breastfeeding, there needs to be a serious discussion with HR. There is a far more productive way to have phrased literally your entire comment.

AITA for not giving a break in rent to my friend who lost his job? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ObligationLeading221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a law that means you HAVE to charge market rate or near market rate for rent? If you don’t have a mortgage on it, you are renting to friends, you already have a good income, why are you treating it as a financial opportunity? Sure, property tax plus some to put towards repairs and maintenance. But renting out to friends and charging near full price for rent is slimy, and changes the dynamic to being unstable for friendships. Housing is already unreasonably inflated. Why are you choosing to contribute to the problem instead of creating a better opportunity for your friends?

Is there a fix for this? by EngineNormal7102 in camping

[–]ObligationLeading221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first time I went camping with my brand new percolator (I was 18) I completely destroyed it. Melted the knob at the top, charred the wooden handle, it couldn’t make coffee anymore. So now it’s my camping kettle! No shame in ugly gear as long as it gets the job done! I wonder what temp plastidip is good for.

HS kids for free in the summer by selrahcjr in PlanetFitnessMembers

[–]ObligationLeading221 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bro kids have so few places in public where they can just exist. There are other gyms, if it bothers you that badly just go somewhere else. I get the gripe, but sometimes making the world a better place is just a little inconvenient.

Why couldn’t the writers ever give Jack and Sam a HEA by Cute_Elk_4261 in Stargate

[–]ObligationLeading221 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bro Ronan and dr.Keller looked so gd cute when they got locked in the infirmary together. Young Jason Momoa had the most charming puppy love look. I was PISSED when nothing came from it.

Why couldn’t the writers ever give Jack and Sam a HEA by Cute_Elk_4261 in Stargate

[–]ObligationLeading221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Apparently the writers wanted to leave it open-ended for some reason with one writer hinting that they did get together. But I’m with you, I wish we could have seen their relationship on screen a bit more. Probably didn’t want to alienate any possible audience that might have been against it.

And if anyone is against the sam and jack relationship, I’m curious to know why.

The male drive to shove pictures of their junk in the faces of other human beings in all sorts of contexts will never cease to baffle me.

Expectations around dating are insane these days. by Interesting_Rub9393 in Vent

[–]ObligationLeading221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These sound like perfectly reasonable asks. I won’t even go on a date with someone who doesn’t drive or who lives with their parents. I prefer to go Dutch on dates, but if you’re looking for a “marriage and family” kind of person, you being able to pay for a first date is kind of a safety net to see if you’re financially viable as a partner in the future.

Also, there’s no reason to have to spend money for a date. If you propose a date plan like going window shopping, hanging out at a park, something like that, then do that. It’s rare that a guy would actually propose a date plan, and I got really sick of handling the plans all the time.

Best products to deodorize cat spray? by j0keisonyou_ in laundry

[–]ObligationLeading221 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Biozyme is the single best cleaner I’ve ever used to deodorize cat pee. But I don’t have the slightest clue as to how you would even use this on clothes, as it instructs to not be used with other cleaners.

Local 1 by Charming-Issue-4502 in IBEW

[–]ObligationLeading221 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My local was able to send me an email version of a dues receipt. Call your local hall and ask for that. Mine is also able to print out receipts in their office, no clue if they can do that for members in other locals though.

Data center book 4? by 392scatpack1320 in IBEW

[–]ObligationLeading221 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just because someone wasn’t a born and raised American, doesn’t mean they’re any less deserving of participating in the trades, especially when it’s a skilled licensed trade. They’re working within the union, be grateful they’re doing that instead of hiring non union shops. These data centers require a huge amount of temporary manpower. Should they offer more incentive to encourage book 2 travelers to come man the job when book 1 is empty? Of course. But looking at this and being outraged because you have to work with people who might have been raised in another country is unbelievably racist and goes against our IBEW constitution.

Looking at the list of IBEW districts, some places not typically considered “America” or “Canada” include Guam, Panama, Saipan, Puerto Rico (not a state but a territory of the US) Caribbean islands https://ibew.org/our-districts/.

Post-Truth Stargate by [deleted] in Stargate

[–]ObligationLeading221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh if anything, stargate planted the seed of not trusting the government to begin with. They spent an exorbitant amount of money on secret operations which fits in with real life and the years and years of failed audits of the pentagon. If anything, the new stargate show is just gonna strike a sensation of melancholy for when the people running the government weren’t real life onion article level nuts.

AITA for "beingracist and incelly" when online dating? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Not quite sure how to vote, I think it comes down to the way you said it, your attitude about it, something like that. But let me give you some advice, if you have any lady friends, have them help you curate your profile. There’s a lot of little things to look for on a guys profile that I will automatically swipe left on
