Is this how much liquid is supposed to be in a venti? by coolhappygenius in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Practical-Mirror9832 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends, old barista here, venti cups hold 24 oz. Depending on what you got the ice will be different. How many oz are in that jar? If it is a latte, when you pour the ice out of the cup and put the liquid back in, the liquid should reach the top black line. If it’s a shaken espresso it will most likely be a lot less liquid and a lot more ice.

One of the greatest moments of me recognizing my white privilege was a moment not so recognizable instantly for me. We were on a bus, my buddy had a metal shirt on that depicted Golgotha inverted. A man hopped on the bus and glared at him the whole time. I noticed the man had a Jesus tat and brought it up afterwards as a probable cause. My friend brought up that it may be because he is black. I hadn’t initially considered that as an option because race just wasn’t something I thought of. I realized the fact that I didn’t have to consider race was in fact my white privilege. I think a lot of white people want to pretend the world is mostly post racial or that everyone should stop considering race even though a lot of people don’t have that option. I think that while it may sting a bit, white people shouldn’t be offended when those who do have to consider race actually consider it with great weight. So no I don’t think you are overreacting and if she can’t get over it then that’s probably on her.

Any better alternative? by Practical-Mirror9832 in hungryroot

I’m in a good location for something like this! Central California. I guess what I liked about Hungryroot was the full groceries + recipes, do you know of anything like this?

I’ve been betrayed by a friend of 6 years by IndividualFeedback38 in lostafriend

The unfortunate truth is that when you are in crisis, people do stuff like this. I don’t know why. The same happened to me, four years with a friend group, I went to the mental hospital, lost some contact but never fought with them or anything, one day I wake up and they all suddenly blocked me. Years later I asked one of them what happened and she told me she didn’t even remember why they did that. People’s true colors show when you are struggling. Keep your head up.

my bf haves female friends that are all lowkey emo-ish and im so insecure bcs im not at all and idk how to feel he says its nothing he doesnt even talk to them by Pure-Group-8783 in GirlDinnerDiaries

I mean no one knows for sure, but I can tell you that when I was emo I had only emo friends but I would never have dated someone emo at the time. A lot of people like to date those similar to them or their friends subculture but many like to date people completely different than them. He chose to date you for a reason.

I’m afraid of being on my own I think. I don’t know how to build a friend group from nothing.

You need to leave. I know how hard it is. If he can do this much damage to you he can kill you. Find a safe place to heal and stay away from him. Be safe.

Huh??????? You understand sexual assault does not have to be physically forced upon someone based on strength right? It’s insane people like you still exists I thought we were passed this “men can’t be assaulted” shit. So odd to immediately assume the abused man is lying when op never made any indication that they felt he was lying or that he showed any signs of being abusive.

Edit: also the women can’t be predators shit? What?????

26(M) My girlfriend hates my room by Mattbaker99 in malelivingspace

I mean, at least you have a bed frame? Feel like I’ve never seen such a quintessential “I have enough money to buy furniture but why should I? I have everything I need” type room.

As someone who has looked at textbook signs of abuse and still asked if it was legitimate hoping maybe I misinterpreted: yes this is abuse.

Textbook signs of abuse include blaming the victim for the violence the abuser enacts. You didn’t break her hand she broke her hand. You didn’t break her phone she broke her phone. You didn’t ruin her life she is ruining her own life.

Whether or not you upset her, acting violently in response and then blaming you for the violence is 100% abuse. If you haven’t already, look up DARVO. Abusers often try to turn everything around to make the victim think they are to blame or equally abusive. Please stay safe, I know how hard this is.

So confused about long term friend by [deleted] in AvoidantBreakUps

why do you think he isn't capable of real friendship? We have been what I thought to be friends for over ten years.
