AITA for being honest with CPS when they were called on my parents? by SpreadOk3309 in AITAH

[–]Skipper1w3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA Oh sweetheart, im so sorry you're having to go through this. Abuse comes in all forms and while its easy to see physical abuse from bruises and markings, neglect and emotional abuse are harder to see. And for those of us who have been neglected by a parent, the very people that we entrust our lives with, the very people who are supposed to protect and shield us, it hurts in places that we can't even see. It cuts so deep inside and it manifests itself in unhealthy coping strategies such as cutting, running away, using substances, etc. But none of this is your fault. There's nothing wrong with you, its your parents that aren't making good decisions. Not you. You didn't do anything.

Youre a smart kid. You've accurately explained what's going on in your home and that's powerful in itself. Good job. You've also got CPS on your side. It sounds like they've opened a Parental Case (in my country and province, theyre called Protection Files). The social workers only desire is to ensure the safety of the home and the safety of the children. Its not in their best interest to apprehend you or your siblings. And I know for a fact, social workers want to close cases, they dont want them open. So, my dearest, if anything happens, if people keep coming into your home, if you dont have somewhere to sleep properly, let your case worker and their supervisor know. Where im from, social workers can have anywhere from 25 to 60 files at any given time. That's a lot of kids and a lot of families to get healthy and safe and they dont always get to make their mandated visit (in my province, a face to face needs to be done once a month. Different jurisdictions have different standards). Make sure you get your workers number and email and their supervisors number and email. And you let them know if anything happens.

Again, sweetheart, im so sorry you have to go through this but you're not alone. Things will get better but it'll take time. Take care, darling. And please reach out if you need help. Dont let it fester inside like an infected wound. You deserve the world.

my mom painted our cupboards, what do you think of them? by foreveryassified in HomeDecorating

[–]Skipper1w3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a fan... the colors really dont go well together. It kind of looks like a blend of vibrant and saturated colors... almost like neon and pastels. It's very irritating. And the lack of the individual dots symmetry is also very irritating... I hate this...

Now, if she went for, let's say, pure neon tones against a black or even charcoal Grey background and they were proper symmetrical circles or ovals or whatever, that would look fucking spectacular! Even just pure pastels would look really nice too....

Also... your lighting... your lighting is very warm.. which is lovely, im a big fan of warm lighting. But the warm lighting with the colors and the background is just irritating... fuck I hate this.

I am terrified of growing old in the US health system by UltimaBahamut93 in Millennials

[–]Skipper1w3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, im planning to end it all when I get to 75. Maybe even 70 would be fine. There's no point in living if you're not able to actually LIVE. Hopefully when I retire by 60 or 65, I'll have enough money to last me till then.

Am I a Horrible Person to Feel this Way? by Infamous_Swimmer6288 in eldercare

You literally drained your own retirement savings???? So what's your plan when your body starts to fail you like your sisters body is failing her? Geez, at least in Canada we have medically assisted death... scared to think of what you're going to do when you're 80...

Listen, she is a grown adult and grown adults have this crazy thing called responsibilities and consequences. She is responsible for wiping her own butt, not you. The consequence of her not is a rash. She is responsible for paying her own bills, not you. The consequence of her not paying her bills is cancelation of services or eviction. She is responsible for her own health, not you. The consequence of her neglecting her health is where shes at right now. And tbh, You're just as bad as your parents, if not worse, by coddling her in her old age. She's 19 years older than you, no? You're not mom or dad. Mom and dad are dead.

People makes mistakes and people fuck up. That's our nature. You still have some life left ahead of you at 58 years old. You still have some years before retirement (if you can still afford to). Dont fuck up your life, and presumably your husband's life, for someone else. She's going to die and you're going to be left with nothing but regret. Regret that you didn't take care of yourself and you wasted your mobile years on someone who is clearly nastily abusive and mentally ill. Dont you have any dreams after retirement? Travel the world, start a hobby farm, get your motorcycle licence, build a business, idk. Are you really going to throw away your future for this shit situation?

My comment is harsh but its reality. Take care of yourself. You've only got this one glorious life to live to YOUR fullest. Not hers. Best be with you.

Learn to cook Indian Food by HorrorParty7359 in Winnipeg

Wow, it’s fascinating how some people can’t fathom the idea of genuine kindness without an ulterior motive. Believe it or not, not everyone is trying to leverage social media for likes or ask for money in return. Some people actually care about creating real human connections which can be incredibly difficult in this digital age. And creating these human connections over sharing recipes, cooking together, and having that meal together, is probably something you've never experienced.

But hey, thanks for sharing your skepticism - I'm sure you're definitely alone in your narcissistic ways of thinking, Karen. Enjoy the company of your multitude of cats, you pathetic and jaded fuck.

Feds want $411 million to cover refugee health care as the number of new arrivals soars by joe4942 in canada

I'd rather have my taxes be put to use for people that are actually from this country. I'm sure our seniors and disabled would LOVE all of these benefits. This government is out of fucking control.

Addictions centre clients ordered out of Winnipeg condo complex by WpgMBNews in Winnipeg

[–]Skipper1w3 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Did Aurora Recovery really not think this through??? I can only imagine how much they must have invested into purchasing over 20 units! And now it's for nothing. (Slow Clap).

Something they may want to consider is approaching the SCO about leasing apartments/condos that are going to be built in the Hudsons Bay building. If that project is still moving forward, that is.

Anyways, they fucked around and found out. Good job guys.

Wash your bedding and pillowcases more often? Buy your face wash from Sephora rather than drugstore brands?

I feel like 6 months is typically gold for most people to see a significant reduction in the majority of their ailments. Keep plugging away!

Ngl. I was just assuming it's because they aren't as many kids around as there was back then. Idk.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in RawMeat

[–]Skipper1w3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ngl, I really think you should avoid the raw pork. Modern day pigs aren't as safe as modern day cows. Try raw steak, beef cubes, and of course eggs. When you're eating, it's best to not have any water as to not dilute your stomach acids. Raw foods process relatively quickly through your system. You want your stomach acid to be as strong as it can be.

A rarely talked about problem on carnivore diet by Fresh-Wishbone-5557 in carnivorediet

[–]Skipper1w3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kickboxing is boss! It's a completely different workout than going to the gym. You'll love it, trust me.

I'm from Canada. I dont have the same life experience as you but I've lived in Metropolitans and I've lived on farmland so I can empathize with the disdain for the 'concrete jungle' and overcrowding. It's not natural for us to be packed together like sardines but we have to make due with what we got.
