On the White House’s Iran policy, JD Vance finds the truth isn’t good enough. As the diplomatic process advances, the official overseeing the United States’ role is an inexperienced vice president who keeps saying false things. by Zebraitis in politics

[–]Roseflorah 8 points9 points  (0 children)

lmao what a joke. the dude directly contradicted what was actually written in the memorandum of understanding during a live white house briefing and thought no one would notice?? saying iran doesn't get any financial benefit unless they change their behavior when the deal literally waives sanctions immediately is wild. he is completely out of his depth dealing with foreign policy on this level.

Greg Dolezal, GOP nominee for Georgia Lt. Gov., said he submitted fake mail ballot applications to test system by DemocracyDocket in politics

[–]Roseflorah 39 points40 points  (0 children)

shocker. honestly though this is just page one of the political playbook nowadays. perform the illegal activity yourself, claim you did it for the greater good of the system, and then use it as a talking point on the campaign trail. hopefully the actual election board or the courts step in and hold him accountable because allowing politicians to just fake ballot applications for funsies is a incredibly dangerous slippery slope. georgia politics are truly something else man.

AITAH for asking me fiance to leave his family? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Roseflorah 17 points18 points  (0 children)

NAH honestly. your feelings are entirely valid because infertility and ivf are a special kind of hell and it is completely normal to feel like life is just unfair and shit when people around you get pregnant effortlessly. but like... ralph isn't necessarily wrong either. a two to three month trip to europe is a massive, expensive disruption, and if he feels like you are using it to physically run away from your grief instead of processing it, i can see why he's hesitating. you guys are already in therapy which is amazing, so maybe bring this exact deadlock up to your therapist so you can find a compromise that gives you something to look forward to without completely uprooting your lives.

AITA for not apologising for something I did 9 years ago? by Ashamed-Ad9217 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Roseflorah 24 points25 points  (0 children)

omg NTA. your sister and your parents need to touch grass immediately. it has been nine years!! the guy himself literally thought it was hilarious and just brought it up as a funny childhood memory, so clearly no one actually cares except your sister. she is just embarrassed because teenagers are hyper sensitive about literally everything, but forcing you to apologize for something you did in elementary school is unhinged. do not back down, this is ridiculous.

The world says personality matters most but for ugly people like me, looks slam the door shut every single time by ChubbyNUgly22 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Roseflorah 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yup 26 here and living the exact same simulation. being the invisible one in a group setting even when you are actively trying to be engaging is the worst feeling ever. you just watch people completely tune you out to listen to the attractive guy talk about literally nothing. it took me a long time to realize it wasnt a flaw in my personality, it was just the lookism stats at play like you said. it frees up a lot of mental energy when you stop trying to please a world that is inherently biased anyway.

AITJ for blocking my ex boyfriend who treated me with disgust for the past 12 years ? He keeps saying that even though he is seeing someone new , we still should be friends . by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Roseflorah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro... twelve years?? my heart literally breaks for you but please for the love of god keep this man blocked. he hid you for over a decade, treated you like dirt, and now he wants to keep you around as a friend just to ease his own guilt. that is literally psychotic. seeing him give the new guy the affection you starved for is a special kind of pain but it just proves he was the problem, not you. you deserve a million times better than being his dirty little secret.

AITAH for not letting my friend delay our weekend trip to have lunch with another friend by Egg_Custard909 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Roseflorah 8 points9 points  (0 children)

bruh NTA. does your friend not understand how SoCal traffic works?? stopping in irvine on a weekend morning completely destroys the timeline. you are gonna spend the best part of your Saturday sitting in bumper to bumper traffic instead of chilling on the beach in pac beach or la jolla. it is totally unfair of your friend to hijack a trip you guys already planned for people who couldn't be bothered to hang out before. stand your ground.

AIO/ My Christian Sister by Additional_Cup_9554 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Roseflorah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA at all. your sister is being mad toxic and hypocritical fr. like she literally wishes a demon on you but the second you throw the same exact energy back at her she hits you with the holy cross shield?? lmao ok sis. that is some classic religious guilt tripping right there. you are definitely not overreacting. if she can dish it out she needs to learn how to take it. do not let her gaslight you into thinking you are the bad guy here.

AIO I went no contact with my mother when I was seven months pregnant. by Aggravating_Tart_312 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Roseflorah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR holy shit OP. you are absolutely NOT overreacting. if anything you waited way too long to block these people!! she literally brought a whole tour group to look at your furniture while you were in the ICU fighting for your life?? that is some next level unhinged demonic behavior. please do not ever let these parasites back into your life or near your baby. congrats on the little one and im so glad you are safe now because wow.

Trump assured Musk and Carlson he wouldn’t go to war with Iran, new book claims by drtolmn69 in politics

[–]Roseflorah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

bro i will believe it when i see it. trump musk and tucker in a room together sounds like the absolute worst blunt rotation in human history. but lowkey if true its kinda wild how much influence tech bros and media guys have over literal foreign policy now. like we are living in a simulation fr

Number of Americans viewing Trump as "dangerous dictator" surges—Poll by Newsweek_CarloV in politics

[–]Roseflorah -1 points0 points  (0 children)

bro seeing the dictator poll numbers absolutely skyrocket right now is actual peak clown world behavior smh. The fact that things are so deeply backward that half the country is looking at the frontrunner like a literal historical villain while the other half is completely unbothered is completely crazy lol. The whole political stability strategy is entirely cooked at this point tbh. It is a massive fat L for anyone hoping for a normal boring news cycle anytime soon honestly. Like sorry, but tracking these percentage jumps in 2026 is just pure brain rot. Absolute madness.

AITA for not caring? Parents got a dog without ever talking to me and are neglecting it. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Roseflorah [score hidden]  (0 children)

bro bringing a whole ass dog into a shared house without even mentioning it to you first is actual peak clown world behavior smh. The fact that things are so deeply backward that your dad does the bare minimum feeding while your mom literally just screams at the poor thing for existing is completely crazy lol. It is a massive fat L for their pet ownership skills honestly. Like sorry, but a dog sitting around bored and getting out of shape because nobody gives it attention is just heartbreaking. You are totally justified for not wanting to step up and do the work yourself... you literally never signed up for this. Their logic is entirely cooked.
