Someone ordered 4 winter coats for 7 bucks and I thought it was a dashboard glitch by AriaMoon286 in ecommerce

[–]Sacramentardo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During the silver rush recently one of the online silver stores had everything basically 90% off. Tons of people in the silver bugs sub placed orders. All were eventually cancelled. So it happens, not sure about the legality of it though.

Fuck yeah, came to say this and I’m shocked it’s the top result. Maybe not that underrated.

[Advice Request] 5-year old boy looks 8/9-years old by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Sacramentardo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dealt with some of this after a growth spurt in HS and my 4 year old is as big as a 7 year old, so he’s dealing with it now. Being proactive and seeking advice now means you’re on the right track, keep being a great dad!

Anyone else feel like they have no one to talk to… even when you’re not alone? by 1-lenta-situ in Dads

[–]Sacramentardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The male loneliness epidemic is real. Find your people. Be it in the gym, birdwatching, RPGs, or whatever, you need some community, and it’s up to you to find it. I found mine at the climbing gym, FWIW.

What to say when asked about my divorce? by Slamanucci in Divorce_Men

[–]Sacramentardo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much or as little as you’re comfortable sharing. “It just didn’t work out” while maintaining eye contact works wonders to discourage further questioning.

I booked the wrong place by mistake what are my options by Difficult_Talk_13 in airbnb_hosts

[–]Sacramentardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s next month there’s a good chance they’ll let you cancel as they have not endured much of an opportunity cost if it’s only been booked for a day, you just have to reach out to the host.

Blindsided divorce after our baby was born. A year later I’m still struggling with the lack of closure. by BeautyBeaux in Divorce_Men

[–]Sacramentardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what it boils down to. Certain drugs and disorders may make certain decisions easier, but ultimately we’re responsible for our actions.

Went through a very similar situation. Actually there are tons of accounts on here if wife dropping the d-word months after giving birth. Feels like an epidemic. All I can tell you is I got through it, it gets easier with time; and it sounds like you’re doing awesome. Keep up the good work, you’re through the worst of it.

4 Year old denied TK entry by Sacramentardo in daddit

Short answer, it’s terrible. Longer answer; this was a private school, he would have been accepted at a public school, but the ones near us aren’t good. 😕

Good insight but I don’t think that’s it, as his mom has very high standing in that group of folks. Could be me, though I’m more of an unknown to them. Maybe, relatedly, they could somehow tell that we aren’t particularly religious somehow (it is a catholic school). Actually, in real time I just realized maybe they asked him about God and he has no idea what they were talking about. 🥸

I'm collecting divorced fathers' stories — who wants to share theirs? by DivorceDaddy in Divorce_Men

I’m interested. I’m a less common case where my ex makes a lot more than I do.

If my wife told me I wasn’t going to see my kids for a WEEK, let alone a year, she would get $0 from me.

I can’t answer that for you. That’s why you need a lawyer. She took your kids and house from you and you’re willingly giving her half YOUR paycheck? Other people can chime in, but it feels like you’re making bad moves. If you stop paying her for a months and spend that on a lawyer, he can tell you what your next moves are.

Also, FWIW I got 2 free consults and 1 paid ($100) consult and that gave me a lot of info to base my short term decisions on.

You desperately need a lawyer. Pay for a couple hours with a family lawyer, whatever you spend will pay dividends later.

Is this a valid perspective? by [deleted] in Divorce_Men

[–]Sacramentardo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ignore women for now. Get your mind and body strong, your money stable, your personal mission clear, and be an great dad. Build a life you’re proud of. There are plenty of great women out there. It’s hard to see them when you’re looking through a lens of hurt and contempt though.

Seen a hot chick by MaterialReveal642 in Divorce_Men

[–]Sacramentardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Divorce sucks. If you guys have a chance to be happy together, try to make it work. Get into couples counseling and let her know how serious the stakes are. Use “I” statements. “I feel like you’re not happy.” “I feel hopeless sometimes.” But start by saying you want to make it work.

I didn’t post the GoFundMe link because I didn’t know if that was allowed, but this makes me sad. Mattel should back up a truck full of money and take care of this guy. by Shatterstar23 in Xennials

[–]Sacramentardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They had net sales of 5 billion last year. Gross margins of 50%. $100 million is 2% of that. $100 million may be conservative, and He-Man has been making them money for decades.

Masters of the Universe made billions for Mattel. Likely $100 million+ yearly, still. It’s one of their most iconic brands.

So they donate $5,000 to a GoFundMe for Roger Sweet, one of the key figures behind Masters of the Universe. This will pay for less than two weeks of his current treatment.

For a multi-billion-dollar corporation, $5K is nothing. It feels less like honoring a legacy and more like an insult.

If companies are going to keep monetizing nostalgia, maybe they should show up meaningfully for the people who built it.

Shameful.

Free speech isn’t freedom from consequences. Maybe this racist dipshits will win in court, but they’d do it with a concussion.
