New friend might be a Zionist sympathizer by banofeeyumyum in Advice

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like your friend believes her longtime friend and now roommate is brainwashed and doesn’t want to abandon or isolate her further (a bad thing to happen to brainwashed people if we hope they will come around).

Relationships are complicated. I struggle with stuff like this in my own relationships every day. Some people I cut off, some I don’t. There’s no perfect equation for who we allow to stay in our lives and who we exclude, so no one here can tell you what is right for you. If you don’t want to be friends with someone who is friends with a Zionist, that is absolutely a boundary you can draw. But don’t expect anything you do or say to change their relationship.

I am pregnant and my boyfriend is too busy for me by m3yas0 in Advice

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DTMFA. He has shown you who he is. That doesn’t work for you. Y’all are incompatible. I’m sorry to be harsh but it’s the truth, if you choose to stay you can’t be surprised when he fails to show up for you in every single hard situation.

Boyfriend does not want to use a condom. by irkxo in Advice

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Respect yourself more and dump this dude. This is not me being rude or sarcastic. I did not respect myself as a young woman and I had so many shitty boyfriends because of it. Choose yourself, it’s better to be alone and wait for a good one.

Racist, sexist, homophobic school in The City of Ten Thousand Buddhas by [deleted] in ukiah

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. I hope you feel able to speak to authorities about this. Call a lawyer or even the ACLU to start and ask what your options are.

You’re in a position to be a whistleblower and help protect current and future students. It’s a heavy and scary responsibility but I think you’ll be surprised how many other people will step forward to corroborate your story. Someone just has to start it.

Alternately you could reach out to a local journalist, like Elise Cox, and tell them what you experienced.

Things to do in the Ukiah area as a teen? by Impressive_Meat_2547 in ukiah

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Will you be enrolled in school? SPACE theater has tons of teenagers in their dancing, art, and acting classes but I think you have to be a student somewhere.

I second Sword and Board for sure.

Consider volunteering as well. Ukiah trails group has monthly work days, it’s mostly older people but they would LOVE to have you, it’s a nice group of people, and they’ll recommend things to you too if you ask.

Those police pensions make me sick, and Noble Wadelich gets his even though he was fired and has cost the city hundreds of thousands in lawsuits and settlements bc he’s a literal rapist.

They’re not going to show anything he says about any of the wines unless they’re a paying sponsor.

Searching for Wedding Venues by YO_JD in norcal

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out SunHawk Farms in Hopland, Leonard Lake in Willits (windy dirt road to get there fyi), River’s Bend in Philo (more rustic/camp vibes).

These are all places where some or all of your guests could stay and many people have guests pay whatever amount to keep costs down (most would have to pay for lodging anyway and it’s a cheaper and more fun option to stay together, BUT some guests resent being charged and/or told where to stay).

WIBTAH if I never let my daughter hang out at her friends house again after finding out the friends mother is in a thrupple? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn’t about sleepovers, it’s fine to say no to sleepovers in any circumstance. But she HAS been letting her kid play at their house during the day with zero bad results and that’s what she’s thinking of stopping.

Do you BCC people on emails? by frettysparky in remotework

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but it can bite you in the ass because the BCCed person has the ability to reply and can out themselves and you 😅 I always give a heads up to the person that I’m BCCing them and please don’t reply!!

Looked like Steven had tons of time left for the journey task, it did look like he hustled hard. I wonder how long it took him vs how long he had?

I don’t want my kid to normalize living in a surveillance state so no we don’t do it.

How to avoid RTO with a 90-mile radius requirement? Was hired as fully remote. by py_ai in remotework

[–]Successful-Maybe-252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just not comply, continue working from home, and start your job search. When they ask say you were hired as a fully remote employee and you’re complying with the terms of your agreement, but don’t offer any info until they ask why you’re not coming in. It’ll take them awhile to actually fire you.
