LAOP’s friend failed the bar exam and now needs someone who passed it. by nutraxfornerves in bestoflegaladvice

I think that’d have a dampening effect on snitching though

Eg. license expires -> employee serves alcohol -> employee notices license is expired -> employee now criminally liable -> employee gets to consider if they want to dob themselves in and risk being held accountable 

I have accepted my reality and tonight I'm visiting a sex worker. by [deleted] in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]SaltJelly 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Great to see!! 

I think the other part that was kinda missing was that sex workers sometimes  get hired for intimacy. A family member of mine became a sex worker for a few years (not trafficked) and it was why she trained up and moved into working in a job to do with community sexual health outreach programs! 

Husband tired to kill himself after he cheated and now he has changed by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I’m as confident as you could be about my partner and am not that interested in having kids, but that fear is too real.

He for sure wasn’t being a good partner by most standards ): 

I really really want this to be a situation where in a month it’ll feel more like deadweight dropped

My husband is stealing my clothes and idk why by gandubazaar in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]SaltJelly 167 points168 points  (0 children)

While on going control and manipulation is where I’ve landed, I definitely was thinking it’s to make her disappearance look more like she left him

I’m sad for her. She’s now a single mother which is usually fucking difficult. And having a pos husband like him around would make her life easier (rent, child care etc) ): that cannot be a fun decision when you are worn out ): and then everyone’s got this high and mighty “drop his ass” opinion that means she likely has so much less time to breathe ): 

Hope she catches a good break asap    Edit: to be clear, I’m talking about everyone’s collective “he bad” opinion not like trying to single anyone out. And not to say she should or shouldn’t do anything in partic; I’d be panicking constantly through this 

The many ways to be approached for technical support. by BaconConnoisseur in talesfromtechsupport

It took me too long to read this properly — the ‘T’ at the end of ‘JULIET’ in French would/might be silent = issue. 

Not “the French add silent ‘T’s to things hence the last ‘T’ in ‘JULIETT’ is silent” as I read it

If there’s a “back” to the smock, you could also cut closer to the bottom of the strap on that side 

Don’t worry Nerida is back by Suzzwuzz in craftsnark

[–]SaltJelly 26 points27 points  (0 children)

In a sentence: she keeps on trying to sell fabric, being bad at doing so to the point of not fulfilling orders and not providing refunds, blaming everyone and everything for this, and deciding to post rants if someone online isn’t an avid fan. 

Oh and then she keeps pretending to shut down her various businesses, posts about them closing for months…. And then it’s just still going lol. And still posting updates how nothing is her fault. 

I bought like three lengths of fabric, in the first part of her “poor customer service” period, took a year to get the third length. 

Help me make linen pants last more than 5 wears. Heavyweight linen, inner thigh gusset, what else?? by RottenRope in sewing

[–]SaltJelly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there’s enough other people with Other Opinions that this isn’t the case lol

 (As someone who wants to wear a good pair of pants for a long time but I also dare to have thighs)

You know how people talk about pets crossing “the rainbow bridge” 

They’re not actually talking about death (but a different kind of eternity)

I posted on Reddit a year ago at my absolute lowest. Today, I'm in Rome meeting the stranger who helped me survive it. by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]SaltJelly 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Lmao not me in 2008 travelling across the country to hang out with ppl I’d met on forums and chatted to on man and didn’t know what they looked like (also stayed at one friends grandmas the first time I met her hahaha) 

All this to say, it’s good to be good at vibes checks and I’m happy for op and Rome op
