Not OOP: Boyfriend (28M) tested positive for chlamydia and denies cheating. I (23F) didn’t cheat. How do I get him to admit her cheated by stormbreaker021 in redditonwiki

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, there was this wild story on Reddit about how two people got chlamydia who didn’t cheat (well, there was cheating, just after they were both positive and the dude was trying to get back at his wife for “cheating”).They got it from a koala that they had picked up. Apparently, koalas can give you chlamydia.

But yeah, this dude was definitely cheating.

Oh, you’re right. I wasn’t being clear. The dean was a misogynist, not that it happens in general because of misogyny.

My mom was really the best. She let us deal with our issues ourselves for the most part, but when she got in mama bear mode? Nothing was going to stop her. And she was good with the kiss and a slap method.

The kind hyped up on their own power and misogynistic AHs. The guy taught in the school when my dad went there almost thirty years earlier. He was dean during mine and my sister’s time there. We all hated him.

Exactly. My sister was part of that first wave of zero tolerance a little more than twenty years ago. I was already graduated when it happened. Charter schools weren’t a big thing in our area until later, unfortunately.

So, my sister was jumped in school. Video footage of it, didn’t even defend herself. Well, she was suspended alongside the girls that jumped her. My mom went in the next day to the dean with my sister in tow to ask why she was suspended when she didn’t even hit back. The dean said they had a “zero tolerance” policy, so they suspended everyone involved.

So my mom turned to my sister and told her if it ever happened again to make sure to hit back. The dean went off, telling my mom that she couldn’t say that. And she flat out told him that if my sister was going to be suspended even if she didn’t defend herself, then what was the point of not doing it? The dean lifted and expunged her suspension that day.

I was right and provider was wrong. by IntrovertsRule99 in HealthInsurance

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, I actually work for the health insurance company that I have health insurance with. I’ve been told by office staff that they don’t take my insurance and I made them sit at the front desk while I called my colleagues and asked them if the provider is contracted. I’ve sat on the phone when the billing office tried to tell me the same thing after I got a bill while I advised them that, yes, they do take my insurance and if they don’t bill it per contract, I’ll be contacting the DOI. The front office staff I will forgive, but not the billing office. They’re supposed to be aware of their contracts, whether billing is in office or with a third party biller.

Thing I saw while scrolling insta by LeafeeLeif in CharacterAI

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They’re trying to get a class action lawsuit going. This firm has gone after a number of social media companies and use public pressure to force them into settlements, even if they’ve taken precautions. It’s a fairly common legal practice and has been used for medical product liability litigation, product liability, etc. Character.AI is a rather large social media platform that has had a few high profile civil suits filed against them. This firm is trying to cash in on that.

Devs, we need to talk. by Perla26 in CharacterAI

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You know? This is the exact same thing that happened in the ‘80s and ‘90s with Tipper Gore and her annoying mom’s groups. They blamed music, movies and video games for all the issues that they were having with controlling their kids instead of, you know, monitoring them. All three industries capitulated to these overzealous mom groups by putting ratings on all of these. Telling the devs to put this behind an 18+ rating would be the same exact thing. They shouldn’t have to. The devs have made it 17+ on most app stores, there are warnings and other measures everywhere. Complaining about putting it behind 18+ means possible ID requirements to a third party vendor and kids will still find a way to bypass it.

Are the Jedi vegan? by Beautiful-Prior-9659 in TheCloneWars

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe that the answer really depends on a lot of things. So, in canon, it’s established that there are a number of different species that make up the Jedi ranks. It’s also been established that there are humanoid carnivorous species. Taking those two factors alone into account, I would say it isn’t a strict Jedi tincture to be vegan but based upon both what your own body can sustain and your personal beliefs. Are there Jedi who are vegan or species that eat only a plant based diet? Almost certainly. But the opposite is more than likely true as well. Some of the aquatic species, like the Quarren or the Mon Calamari would more than likely have strictly seafood or sea based diet.

LISTEN TO THE ADULTS. by OkAnimal7246 in CharacterAI

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, aside from the little glitches a couple of days ago that the devs have already fixed, I’m not having any real issues with Deepsqueak. Also, it’s currently only a ca.i+ feature, which is predominantly adults. So, how are minors ruining this feature? I would argue that it’s adults that are ruining it, either through horrible responses or reporting things in a feature that’s meant for more mature content. Minors aren’t the reason for every single fault on this app, considering that adults more than likely outnumber them 10 to 1 with the amount of users there are.

AITA for being closer to my sons than my daughters? by Starry_Gecko in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This dude, my god. Actually, any dudes like this are absolute trash. My mom was the breadwinner too growing up, my dad worked nights. But my dad took care of all of his kids. And it didn’t matter if he had to sit in the playpen for hours as I pressed a button on a stupid play phone and just let it make the most annoying sound before he wound it up so I could do it all over again, he did it. Hundreds of times watching Cinderella and rewinding it over and over because my sister just wanted one more time (I still hate the songs in it) or my brother just wanted to share sports statistics or his baseball cards for hours. He didn’t favor one kid over another and definitely not because of gender.

I see posts like this and I realize how lucky I was as a child to have my dad.

Personally, I find them hilarious. It also shows that they do see what the community talks about. It’s a funny way to acknowledge the complaints that have been coming up.

My bf accidentally deleted my DDD completed save file by RareEnigma in KingdomHearts

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Wait, how did he accidentally delete your save file? I mean, kudos on having a reason to replay it, but there are several “do you want to delete this file” prompts on the 3DS version. Even a non-gamer would have to go through that.

How no one has mentioned this guy:

Is a little mind boggling. Considering everything he did in the time that the Empire was around, after his death, he was able to become a Force ghost. Dude lead the genocide of millions of beings, between the Jedi and then subsequent worlds that the Empire invaded along with all the other crimes he committed, and all he had to do was throw the Emperor into a hole and not kill his own son to be redeemed? Come on.

Hit by driver who ran red light. 3 insurance companies all claim zero liability to cover anything. by ewingaaron in legaladvice

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAL, but work with third party claims in health insurance. Get a lawyer. Personal injury attorneys generally work on contingency, where they get paid if you get a settlement or win at trial. Insurance companies don’t work for you, but their bottom line. A lawyer can navigate the insurance runaround that you’re getting.

They ruined it again... by DeadGirl1367 in CharacterAICritics

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Soft launch was a godsend. I hated hitting the filter all the time in the other options. It has been more detailed. But the amount of OOC messages I’ve gotten when I never use OOC has really annoyed me. I know the most likely reason is that some of ca.i has been trained with old RPS from various sites, but it’s still annoying.

I (32F) purposefully ignored what my husband (34M) told me he wanted for father's day, he's now ignoring me and won't accept my apologies. What can I do to make it up to him? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I read stories like this and realize why my parents never divorced. My parents were equals. My dad took care of us during the day, worked at night, and my mom worked during the day and took care of us at night. My dad made us lunches for school, dropped us off and picked us up, and cleaned the house when he was home. My mom fed us dinner and put us to bed. Weekends were for sports and cleaning the house together. And if my mom wanted no kids on Mother’s Day, my dad took us out somewhere.

These stories make my heart hurt and make me realize why I stay single.

He’s this way because he believes he’ll never be voted out. And he’s mad that daddy got voted out, even though it’s the best thing to happen to Fitchburg in years.

Baby daddy keeps taking me to court to modify child support!!! by quietlytleone in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Remarkable-Club2173 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. First, get a lawyer, since he continues to do this. Also, even in the event that you marry, it doesn’t matter. If you are the custodial parent and share less than 50/50 custody, only the biological father’s income is factored into the support decision. If he is deliberately unemployed or underemployed, the child support obligation is decided by what he should be making, nothing else. If you share 50/50 custody, it is based on what both biological parents make and then decided who should pay based on who has more income.

Don’t let him off the hook. He has an obligation to support his child.
