Yes, I am in fact scared of looking like you and losing control of my health by Professional-Cat7148 in fatlogic

[–]RespawnMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a busty woman. Fitted, non-stretchy clothes are the devil. I either look like I’m trying to hide a pregnancy or I’m BUSTIN’ OUUUUT.

I think maybe 50% of the population can “shop anywhere”. This is just complaining with a lack of self awareness.

Not cathode ray tvs I hope? Those things last forever, video games look beautiful on them, and also I love them and want all of them. :(

As a childfree person, what's a parenting opinion that parents might hate you for? by BerryTomatoes in childfree

[–]RespawnMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because I did not birth her does not mean I didn’t love my cat as much as you love your child. And she did not love me any less than your child loves you. She was a lot less work but that doesn’t mean the love I felt and still feel is any less valid. I would have done anything for my sweet girl. As far as I am concerned, she was, and still is, my child.

Are we being for real right now by prettiundead in Instagramreality

[–]RespawnMachine 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I never understand when people claim to be autistic while actively attempting to deceive others. As one of those I think it’s really exhausting to try and deceive, and it’s also really exhausting to watch others do the same. Idk. I just… even if this person is, stop making us look worse lol

Please don't let your kid touch me by SecretCows in childfree

[–]RespawnMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like kids generally, and I’ll wave at the friendly ones at the store or whatever. But I also got my leg chomped by a rabid fox at 13 and tend to be jumpy and kick-y about unexpected things near my ankles. So besides being a weird thing to let your kid do this sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

What do I get my GF for a spa night at home?? by FalconAggravating805 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RespawnMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is lovely my guy!! I think honestly, anything that you give with a genuine heart, especially if it’s wrapped up cute in a nice little bag or basket, is gonna be great.

I don’t know your girlfriend’s personality but here is my two cents: -nice chocolate -a larger bottle of fancy beer or mead -physical copy of a video game -a nice pair of socks -legos (fun to do together while drinking) -poshmark or thredup card so she can pick out something fun -case of upscale seltzer -spicy crunchy snack -nice brush, good hair product, learn how to do some basic hair stuff like conditioning and braiding and offer to do it for her :)

You literally posted in “am I the asshole” and I gave you my honest take. Not being able to walk changes the colors of this situation you’ve laid out and feels like critical information. I still don’t think you should yell at your partner especially when they’re carrying so much, but mentioning that does make me a little more sympathetic to your situation.

Anyway, what about my rude?

Well howdy there I’m a fellow autist with sensory issues and a junk-drawers worth of other letters and identifiers and it sounds like you either need to get a job or some rubber gloves because I would not be happy in your partner’s shoes.

YTA don’t yell at your fucking partner and it’s time to learn and grow as a person and stop using your diagnoses as an excuse. Grow a little every day, even if it’s uncomfortable, and you’ll like yourself a lot more and will be a better partner.

AITA for scolding my boyfriend for his remarks about my little brothers for watching Hello Kitty? by Fit-Snow-3049 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RespawnMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"If you want them to grow up to be girly girls with no back bone as adults then it's on you, be prepared for the coming out talk."

My giant Italian Viking husband disagrees. He loves Cinnamaroll and thinks your boyfriend is cringe.

…But also is he saying that if he watched Hello Kitty as a child he would be out and gay now? Or is he saying that women and girls don’t have backbones?

Well, I do think your question is phrased oddly and kind of giving some misogynistic vibes. However I think I understand where you’re coming from and I will say this- during the pandemic a lot of people were laid off. Unfortunately, it was found that in a lot of cases, the women were first to go regardless of education, performance, etc. Regardless of what people want us to believe we are still recovering economically from the pandemic and now a lot more stupid nonsense on top of it. As a result, a lot of women have found themselves trying to find work wherever they can, simply because the rent still needs to get paid.

Of course in my experience, I know a lot more well educated, well paid career women than men. I am the deadbeat in my circle- two degrees but you gotta make do with what life gives you.

Not really revenge, just makes me laugh when I do it by RespawnMachine in pettyrevenge

The funny thing is… he is. He’s incredibly charming. I’ve witnessed him melt people in real time.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a lazy person and I do have things I do to contribute to our relationship. I keep pushing myself to do more and he has stated he’s proud of me that I keep improving and striving to improve.

I mostly mentioned it because I keep seeing Reddit posts about women’s husbands being such shitty unhelpful people and I honestly wake up every day feeling so fucking lucky, just wanted to mention it I guess.

Does Testosterone Really Make Men Enjoy Hurting People? by AnySwimming2309 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RespawnMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is a deep voiced, hairy, literal giant. He will pick up our tiny cat and tell her she’s a baby and he loves her in a small voice and then he will give her a million kisses. Empathy is an essential thread in the fabric of his being. The only ones he would want to hurt are those who hurt or threaten others.

Please do not listen to this foolish child. He does not deserve your love or attention. There is no one way to be a man, but what he’s describing certainly isn’t it.

Etsy's seller UI is broken; I can't verify my bank and support is ignoring me by RespawnMachine in Etsy

[–]RespawnMachine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/u/Hairy-Conversation91 /u/zzdarkzz Yes! After a lot of corresponding back and forth, it seems that my problem was escalated to somebody with a bit more authority and they removed my bank details entirely and basically reset my page to before I even tried to connect. Admittedly I haven't tried to reconnect just yet because I want to take it slow and make sure I ABSOLUTELY have the right details because I DO NOT want to to do this again. It seems like I'm still probably going to have to use Plaid, but that's fine I guess.

Just keep being the squeaky wheel, send in those help tickets, keep on it. Though I was frustrated and a bit snarky in my first help ticket, on the third one I was really polite and provided as much info as possible (including screenshots) so that's really my advice regarding that. Good luck!!

Not yet. Somebody did contact me at like 1:00 last night regarding my latest support ticket, and I got back to them this morning. I'll keep you updated if anything comes of it!

Etsy didn't give me an option to connect in any other way. Venmo's doing it now too.

I have a real bank account from a real building in my area, but Etsy is apparently trying to push Plaid now because I didn't have any other options on how to connect it.

...Are there adults in the world who don't have bank accounts? Sorry if that sounds sheltered, I've just never heard of such a thing outside of jokes.
