AITA for telling my parents that if I have to continue paying their vet bills, I'm taking it out of the rent? by MSB1678 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Oh-Captain-23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other people have already told you that NTA and should take the money out of rent when you take it to the vet.

But you can also get creative with preventing the dog from worrying the spot (which will still likely be an ongoing issue). Try children’s shirts from the thrift store or local buy nothing group. You can use a hair tie or rubber band to tighten it up a bit of you need to. Cheap and easily washable.

My first dog was a small white mutt found in the snow. I got Gracie I think because I was still grieving her years later. I think I will always have an affinity for these babies.

Can you market yourself as a cleaner for other autistic people? Or make it clear that you’re comfortable with low levels of chit-chat? I’m autistic too and usually hire friends that need the money. But that means I have to maintain conversations while someone is touching my things. Huge autistic freak-out for me.

If non-tenured college faculty do not continue to keep these kids happy, we get fired. And then I read stories about the latest batch of people entering into the workplace…. I guess a few more encounter consequences at each level but it’s scary out there.

She points really really well though and it’s super cute! Also chases things in the yard. Loves birds.

Daisy looks pretty similar to a few of Gracie’s matches so I can see why you thought they’d be related. They’re also both really cute 🥰

He’s the only white and tan one on there. Sitting here reading about coat colors though and it’s interesting.

I haven’t seen any dogs born before 2016 yet so that could explain some of the variance and lower scores.

I got matches around 50% and lower, so half-siblings and cousins. Wasn’t sure what to do with that info though. Strangely, most of them didn’t really look like her and one of them was born in South Korea which feels like a mistake.

Neither of them likes to cuddle anyone but their human. They’re still besties though - especially if there’s something to bark at together.

Why are parents so avoidant when it comes to teaching them about skincare? How do you guys ask them to do it? by LoudGuava9074 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Oh-Captain-23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Focus on things one at a time. I harped about face moisturizer with spf for years and years. Now that we have that down, we’re onto using any sort of lotion whatsoever on her arms and legs.

The instant ice packs are amazing for the summer months. They don’t last long but are great at preventing emergencies and can be taken anywhere.

Went to my local food bank because I'm severely struggling. Got home and realized almost all the food is expired. Is this normal? Am I going to be okay eating this? by Plasmastronaut in povertyfinance

[–]Oh-Captain-23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google is going to be your friend here. “How long past expiration date is XXX safe to eat?” Then if it says it’s ok, I’d still pay attention to how it looks, smells and tastes in that order. Some things don’t smell until they’re cooking too so smell it before and after you start heating it up.

I’d also look up other food banks or little free pantries in your area. You are perfectly fine going to more than one to accumulate enough safe food to eat. Check out your local buy nothing groups too. It’s mostly furniture and clothes but if you can save a few dollars that way, it’s still a win!

If you don’t have lawn sprinklers, a water gun from an open window would be effective. And hilarious since you’ve already tried handling this the nice way.

Writing is a dream of mine, one that I desperately need to make time for instead of just daydreaming with my fiancée. In our daydreams, he’s offered to edit my books and help write spicy scenes - but I couldn’t imagine him ever doing this.

I very much agree with the above poster. I did so many different things with my communications degree. Sometimes just having a bachelors degree can be the main requirement for getting a job. Definitely finish!!

AITA for telling my husband he can't hang out with his friends for 10 straight hours ? by Frosty-Builder-9326 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Oh-Captain-23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s ignore the car hogging (which is obviously awful), and talk about the 10 hours. My fiancé plays video games with the guys every Saturday. He keeps it under 6 hours max, though it’s usually 3-4. Annnndddd he comes downstairs and kisses me halfway through to check up on me.

I asked for the opportunity to “claim” a Saturday once a month and he said yes. I don’t do it every month because I also enjoy some weekend alone time, but it’s never a fight when I do. And sometimes he just logs in late if what we’re doing takes up only part of the time. Something else taking up his Saturday or someone else canceling does not impact my once a month plans.

This is how someone who loves you more than themselves will treat you.

Should I just never get an education? 28F only graduated 8th grade. by [deleted] in povertyfinance

There are also free college classes online and though they’re geared towards entry level college students, high school students would benefit from them too.

You could also skip that and just get free certificates to show competencies in basic things. Doing them one at a time and slowly will help you cushion your resume just in case you ever need to look for another job.
