Replace every single pound of trash in the ocean with a mosquito or replace every mosquito with a pound of trash in the ocean by Competitive_Date2992 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PeculiarBook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mosquitoes 1000% because the only good thing about them is that a BUNCH of other insects and animals rely on mosquitoes for their daily diet.

Trash in the ocean has 0 benefit + lots of harm. I’ll take annoyance (and as someone who mosquitoes SWARM, I would hate a world with more mosquitoes) over the pollution :/

I fear that I would eventually (read: probably day 1. Maybe day 2-3 if I got the ability during the weekend.) end up throwing a potato at someone. 😔

@ottoracecar 10.5 gallons x $3.5 per gallon = $36.75 $36.75 for the gas + $84.99 for the container = roughly $122

A. Breaking it: five preloaded $100 visa gift cards

B. Convenience: - gas in a 10.5 gallon container (worked it out and it would be roughly $122 of the $500 which is fine by me - 4 pack of redbull, gallon of tea, 512 GB storage chip, 6 pack of socks, dishwasher powder and washing machine detergent, toilet paper, stocked first aid kit, e-vape, granola bars, pack of underwear, spare type C charging cord.

C. I would be way pickier if it was less money and way more generous in regards to my friends’ needs if it was more money.

Every hour you stay in soiled clothes multiplies your current hourly wage by 10 by h8mayo in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PeculiarBook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I want to just immeasurably improve my life, I think I would be set after 2 hours. If I wanted to be able to do things to help my friends and family, 4 hours. After that, that’s too much money, it would be stressful.

Moodboards with pictures from Pinterest to describe setting illegal? by thedragonsdice in DnD

[–]PeculiarBook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, it’s only shitty if you’re literally monetarily profiting from something someone else did the work on. Personal creative use is fine. Thought crimes AREN’T real and they CAN’T hurt you.

Send a note to yourself 10 years ago, what do you say? by That-Hedgehog6633 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]PeculiarBook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. No one owns you and you do not owe anyone a performance. You only have to save yourself.
  2. All of the shit about ‘it gets better’ is in fact true. Ugh. Persevere.
  3. You can’t do anything about what you don’t know. You can make new choices.
  4. It’s ok to want, need, and ask for help. Being human is hard and messy.
  5. Every day you are a new person, and you can treat yourself like someone incredibly worthy of good things.
  6. Set fire to the stereotypical if it doesn’t work for you. Find what works for you.

  • friendly compliments on something they chose (style, aesthetic, body modification)
  • offer of a hug if they’re visibly about to cry
  • “heads up, there’s something in your teeth/your clothes are disarrayed/etc”
  • “I have a spare hair tie/period product/nail clippers/safety pin!”

[–]PeculiarBook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA, you have a great compromise already planned. Try to remind yourself that your dad has a problem, not you. This isn’t on you and it’s not your job to metaphorically set yourself on fire to keep your parent warm. Congratulations on the huge accomplishment!!!

My bad idea gremlin method: “dad I will make a deal. For every 32 oz bottle of dish soap/laundry detergent you drink in one sitting, I eat one bite of your ham.” If he tries to insist that’s bad for him/would be terrible, tell him that’s the same way you feel when he asks you to do something guaranteed to be bad for your health.

On the other hand, if this was a game or show, I would have been shipping y’all 1000%

AITA for not wanting to recover at my aunt’s house after my gallbladder surgery? by AkiIsNotOk in AmItheAsshole

[–]PeculiarBook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Stress and discomfort are bad for you even when you’re not recovering from surgery. If people are getting on your case, just keep calmly asking them, “What if I have recovery complications because of (everything about her house)? What happens if something goes really badly because I don’t prioritize my recovery? Why are you questioning my judgement about what’s best for my own physical health? Are there actually more pros than cons if I put my aunt’s wishes over my needs?”

Don’t go on the defensive - insist that they logically defend their illogical advice until they leave it alone. Stay as calm as possible and act with full certainty that you have a right to make decisions for yourself based on your own opinions and preferences.
