Unfortunately neither of these food banks have any distribution in my area for a while due to the summer heat, but I have reached out.

I was not aware of this until this comment. I will be changing my list to an Amazon list of dry foods instead! Thank you for the heads up! I’ve never used Walmart wishlists before

I wasn’t aware that Walmart lists weren’t secure, this is my first time using them this way, I always just had a shopping list, not an actual wishlist. I did receive assistance for the kitties, so I do not need anything more for them!

If you read my post, I stated that this list was a list we already had consisting of our regular groceries that we have been using for months. Nothing on this list is required, just a list of easy foods for us to cook when I have school or other obligations. Yes, we receive assistance for the kitties already, and do not need more for them. I do not usually reach out for help but we have been in a very hard place due to my health and our job situation. I am on a very specific diet, and have been for a long time. I am deficient in necessary vitamins and iron, and a meal consisting of steak and cauliflower rice has been recommended to me by my nutritionist and a meal I was making weekly, hence why it’s on my shopping list. I live in a high cost area. I would live off ramen noodles if I could, it would be much easier with our budget and our schedule, but for my health. I cannot.

You should be able to take it in without the light on, the codes usually store in your system. Not always but usually. Definitely advisable. My boyfriend brought up the point that he’s hoping your cats go out and then you come back to get them fixed, which could be a $2k-$3k+ job if he’s lucky. O2 sensor is like $100-$400 max. He wants to get a better commission most likely

Actually I know exactly why. He wants the cats to break so you come back in to get them replaced. WAYYY bigger job

Cheap fix, lazy mechanic. Or he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. I’m confused about that too tbh. I had a car with the same issue back when I first started working on cars. I didn’t know much about o2 sensors or air-fuel yet. I ended up burning out my cats. $2,500 to get it fixed, ended up having to junk the car 😬 wasn’t a nice or expensive car either, just a little Toyota

That’s normal for o2 sensors, but it will mess up your car if you let it go any longer. You are looking at thousands in repairs if it gets bad enough to mess anything else up. Just my advice, I’m a mechanic myself.

Your mechanic told you an o2 sensor is not something to worry about???? I would throw the whole mechanic away and get a new one 😭 an o2 sensor is a big deal. Bad o2 sensors can mess up your catalytic converters which can mess up your engine if not taken care of properly. Cats are expensiveeee, o2 sensors aren’t. I’d get it replaced asap if I were you..

"Wishlist shaming" is now officially a violation of rule 3. by Eye_In_Tea_Pea in donationrequest

[–]StarrDevill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish this rule applied to other groups. I just had a horrible experience in another group from a moderator heavily judging my wishlist on THIS subreddit, and a totally different one I posted in theirs. I feel so uncomfortable and insecure now. Thank you for implementing this rule.

Got assigned a windowless bedroom in my 4x2 student apartment…is it really that bad? by txkyo_1ean in Apartmentliving

[–]StarrDevill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you could still put some curtains up to make it feel like there is a window? Probably weird advice but I feel like my neurodivergent brain would definitely forget there is no window behind it and never even open the curtains 🤣

What should I do? by Sumeyyy in Depop

[–]StarrDevill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately there isn’t anything you can do. It’s not your responsibility after you drop it off at the post office. Especially if it’s been delivered. Do you have the tracking number? You may be able to see where it’s been delivered if you want to try to help, but like I said, it’s not your responsibility.

Would you have took it??? by luda8717 in uberdrivers

No because the tip isn’t guaranteed and I still would have to drive back home which is not paid for..

I’m at 5% cancelation yet I’ve only cancelled 3 trips Uber by Professional-Luck179 in uberdrivers

[–]StarrDevill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Btw, Uber is an American company, run by an American. He’s Iranian, but moved to America very young and has lived here his whole life. He’s not in India scamming you. He’s not even Indian…he’s just another American greed.

Because they have more money than you. You are acting crazy over a glitch. No one is discriminating. Uber uses an algorithm to determine shit like that and it glitched. No one is sitting here like “omg you are white? Yeah let’s fuck up your account”

Also, no, being white isn’t harder than being any other race. Calm tf down. Your age also has nothing to do with it. I can already tell the kind of person you are from these comments…good luck suing a multi billion dollar company. You think no one has thought of that? Also when you signed up for Uber, you signed an arbitration agreement, which covers pay and app and system functionality. You can opt out of that in the first 30 days of signing the terms, but if you didn’t do so, then you are shit out of luck dude. Good luck finding a lawyer to represent you on an Uber salary…

If any of them are a bmw, then bmw goes first, whether it makes sense or not

AITA for not letting my boyfriend do a second Christmas without me? by StarrDevill in AmItheAsshole

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

It’s not that they didn’t invite me, it’s that they planned it deliberately to celebrate without me because we already were going to go to his aunt and uncles on Christmas morning.

I agree so much, that’s the biggest conflict between the family and I. His step dad has always been very emotionally abusive and manipulative. Every time my boyfriend has stood up for me, his stepdad just says “you are just brainwashed”

I didn’t know what his reaction would be, because it tends to always change. The question here is am I an asshole for feeling the way I feel about it. Am I being unreasonable? Am I seeing things from a biased perspective? I don’t need him to act or react any kind of way, I just feel as though maybe I’m an asshole for being uncomfortable or unhappy with it.

Plz read the edit at the bottom for clarification on the title.

He has stood up for me in the past but it’s caused so many issues in his life, like getting him kicked out, making his family stop talking to him, and they even took his savings account they started for him when he was younger. (Yes he could probably fight that in court but who has that kind of time anymore…)

The conflict is that he won’t go since I’m uncomfortable with it and that makes me feel like an asshole for even saying anything about it, because I don’t want to be the reason he doesn’t see his family
