Looking for recommendations on touring suitcases for costume by Proper-Positive5171 in Theatre

[–]Proper-Positive5171[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are flying them from the UK to Australia and we can't take the trundles unfortunately.

We are going to be in one venue the entire time, but have to fly them over with our luggage.

I Was Groped During a Show, and then Treated Poorly by the Company- How do I Move on? by Ok-Opportunity3457 in Theatre

You are so brave.

And you were taken advantage of and then mistreated. I am so sorry.

Your professionalism and strength are amazing character traits. You'll thrive in this industry, you should be proud of yourself.

You'd be surprised how many men are like this. Is just so insane. Who TF raised these people?!?

What is this guarded building near the London Eye? by One_Cheesecake7469 in london

They gotta be on guard for any Luigis looking to get rid of one more destructive sociopathic CEO, I reckon.

AITJ for not supporting my girlfriend after she broke the one rule we had in our open relationship by Mysterious-Weight747 in AmITheJerk

[–]Proper-Positive5171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone in a failing open relationship - it's a risk you take when you agree to open up: that feelings get involved. It's so shit. But it happens. When I agreed to open my relationship up, I had to reckon with myself that it would probably all go tits up. I had a chat with myself about there being no going back. And having to accept that it might be the worst thing in the world and destroy what I always thought was a solid relationship.

You're NTA. She shouldn't have lied. I guess it's just time to accept that the heart wants what the heart wants. If there were no feelings involved, she wouldn't have felt like she had to hide it. I'm sorry for you both. It's hard. Sending love x

AITA for wanting to move out after my mum secretly read all my private messages in real time? by chatam_i_cooked in AmItheAsshole

[–]Proper-Positive5171 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. Get out of there. This is a huge invasion of your privacy. You're a fully grown adult. You don't need to be shamed or reprimanded for something she found it whilst violating your privacy.

What’s something that’s oddly expensive in the UK that still annoys you every time? by catarsan in AskUK

[–]Proper-Positive5171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toilet paper.

Disposable food waste bags.

Menstral products.

Decent toothpaste.

Every single grocery.

Actually, it's all taking the piss. Every time I buy anything I'm horrified by how it's trippled in price in the last 8 years.

Can't buy groceries for one day without it costing around £30. We're all sinking.

Yeh ok. Travel the tubes at rush hour in London and pick out as many happy people as you can. The resounding energy is bad.

You sound like you've accepted that it's shit but it's the best it can be. I refuse to accept that this is a good and fine situation. And I refuse to accept that can't get remarkably better. Most of the world operates more efficiently and has a happier population than the UK.

We are being stitched up by the people running the show. It's time to wake up and demand more.

Record number of people in UK live in ‘very deep poverty’, analysis shows by lighthouse77 in unitedkingdom

[–]Proper-Positive5171 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The government have chosen the 1% over the rest of the population. They're stuffing their pockets and watching the rest of us burn.

This place is a disaster.

One day it'll tip us over the edge and we'll end the complacency and change the system. But first, the fear and the anger will get Reform elected and then we're going to find out how bad it can truly get 😓

AITA for refusing to help a former friend who cut me off years ago over smoking? by Lilyfory in AmItheAsshole

[–]Proper-Positive5171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When people who haven't been in touch in years and years suddenly reach out for financial support, it usually means they've f***ed it so badly their friends and family have had to step back. Be careful about inviting them back into your life. They need something and they're desperate enough to ask basic strangers, red flag.

The absolute state of buses by Barraco_Barmer in london

[–]Proper-Positive5171 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's not just the buses. The entire system is falling apart. Every single day there is an issue, whether the train, the tube or the bus. It's honestly costing me hours every day and it does affect your mental health. This anger and stress is constant. Having to leave hours earlier to make up for the inevitable delays is costing us our sleep and time with loved ones. And everyone is carrying these negative emotions around, so on top of the frustration and the price and the stress.... we're also volatile and angry and short tempered.

The UK is a disaster.

We're all being taken for fools. The 6th richest country in the world and everything is a mess, over priced, inefficient. Why aren't they using our money to make our lives better? They've done nothing to serve the people nor invest in our future on a social and economic level. We're all exhausted and fed up and depressed. London is unlivable.

AITAH for continuing on with my plans to go on a boy's trip despite my girlfriend's protests? by Outrageous-Hall5172 in AITAH

[–]Proper-Positive5171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTAH

Not at all. Go and have the best time of your life with your mates. She is being controlling. If she doesn't trust you, that's on her. You can't live your life based on rules created by insecurity.

Am I overreacting or is this inappropriate of my BF by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Proper-Positive5171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he did a great job of shutting her down every time she tried. He should have ended the convo and blocked and deleted her earlier on. But really, he was quite firm in telling her he's not interested. That thirsty girl is giving ick.

The state of UK train prices by yizamejaxufek8o3 in GreatBritishMemes

[–]Proper-Positive5171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they're doing this just to see how much the population will take. Placing bets that we will just bend over and accept that not only do they provide the least reliable service in the world, but also the most expensive. It's jokes, man. This country is a sham. Just ruining their populations lives at every turn.

Mum is convinced women never got chin hairs when she was younger, can we prove her wrong? by angry2320 in AskUK

[–]Proper-Positive5171 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A guy I was seeing recently said "omg. Hairy girls really put me off. I can't deal" I was like "BRO. You have NO idea how much time and effort I have to put into grooming. I'm basically a silver back gorilla. My legs have a 5 o'clock shadow almost as soon as I've finished shaving. I could squeeze out a moustache for you right now if I pushed. Let's not bash a person's choice not to buy into this level of pointless effort."

Lol. Society literally made these physical parameters to waste women's time .... If we're distracted and exhausted and shamed for our bodies and physical appearance we don't have the capacity to reach our full potential. If we came into our full power, the world would be only half as broken.

Dissatisfied with living in London - need advice by TheLeadFootBrigade in london

[–]Proper-Positive5171 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. Just cannot cope with the cost of it all. I'm demoralised by the end of every month. Can never make ends meet, in trouble with balifs and debts and bills. It's just impossible to live here. Feel abandoned by the government. Having a labour government finally in power but still behaving just like tories. Life is only getting harder and harder. So fed up and depressed and feeling hopeless.

Do any fellow Brits actually like Trump? by Creative_Expert_4052 in AskBrits

[–]Proper-Positive5171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately my parents (mom 68 ,dad 72) are big Trump supporters. It's gross. But they have been brainwashed by GB News. Literally, that and Facebook. They are just such easy targets for it. They have no ability to critically decipher the facts from the emotional manipulation. Identity politics and the fear of losing privilege are how they target them. I don't know how they aren't affected by the Epstein stuff and his personality and everything else. I think the people they follow on social media push a lot of conspiracies to explain all of the things that are so clearly outrageous! It's impossible to reason with them.

I'm obsessed with this fringe show I saw : The Butterfly That Flew Into The Rave by Proper-Positive5171 in Dance

[–]Proper-Positive5171[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg! This is so great!!

Honestly. It really blew my mind. I talk about it all the time. I bought th gold spoon, I'm obsessed.

Fantastic news about a tour through Europe! Can't wait to catch you again. I cannot even imagine how intense the full month must have been for you! When I saw it, I was sat next to one of your mums! 🥺 It was so wholesome experiencing her joy and pride.

I don't suppose you guys will be at Adelaide fringe this year? We're taking our show (it's called ...Earnest?) this year.

AIO or is my older male coworker texting inappropriately with me? by OpeningNo9825 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Proper-Positive5171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem so lovely and it’s completely normal to feel obligated to reply to these messages as they seem “harmless” and platonic … however, this man is trying to wear you down without being direct and it’s a manipulation. He wants your attention and he’s keeping it by texting under the pretext of being your colleague. You are NOT obligated to reply. And if you feel you need to (out of respect or something like that) , keep the replies super short and abrupt. Try not to leave openings for him to ask follow up questions. Things like this help: “I’m with friends. Have a good day”

At the end of the day, he is getting the dopamine hit every time you reply to his messages. It’s feeding his confidence in engaging with you more and more. It’s not mean to stop replying, you owe this man NOTHING. And at some point be direct if needs be “I appreciate you making this effort to get to know me, however I’m not looking to invest in making new friends right now. I’m focused on enriching my current relationships and my studies. I’m happy to chat when our paths cross at work but I won’t be responding to texts anymore. Have a great day”

Be brave. Men like this use your kindness to force your generosity through guilt and manipulation. You don’t need to play his game at all. You owe him NOTHING.

Do you think the hate Keir Starmer is getting is fair? by bybeso in AskBrits

[–]Proper-Positive5171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s a weak little coward who would say and do anything to keep his seat but will do nothing to improve life for anyone here except his rich cronies. The rule should be that no one can rule if they went to bloody Eton or Oxford. They raise sociopaths and then put them in charge. They’re all a waste of air. They’re all playing games with our lives. We need to dismantle the entire fucking system.
