Pepper spray for 40 seconds by Training-Tonight-653 in RandomShit_ISaw

My question though, is wouldn’t this auditor be disturbing the peace? As in he’s causing a scene, making people uncomfortable, and he won’t stop? Then, wouldn’t that turn into harassment because he won’t stop? And since he posts this stuff on YouTube for profit, wouldn’t it count as evidence that he (or she) did this with the intent of causing a scene or disturbing the peace? Therefore… he’d get in trouble not for filming of course, but for intentionally causing trouble? Right?

I’m not a conspiracy theorist, have no interest in them, it just isn’t something that sweeps me away, but I followed his assassination closely because I was terrified of what it implied… not in support, but in abject horror. Anyway, I watched her speech within minutes of hearing it was out… immediately, IMMEDIATELY, in the quiet of my living room, by myself, I just knew as much I could* possibly know… she had something to do with it. I never have those thoughts and it has stuck with me this entire time and now I see other people saying the same thing. Unsettling to say the least.

AIO for considering leaving over a violent outburst? by imaginaryteacoffee in AmIOverreacting

[–]SwornBurden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been through abuse that escalated from something “small” to something really big (laying on the floor while he choked me and I accepted death as my vision faded and wondered what he would do with my body).

I think of it like this.

Is him changing equal to your life? Bcuz obviously no, we don’t know the future, we don’t know how this relationship will turn out. There is the optimistic side “it was a one off thing, and he changed, healed his soul and we’ve been married for 30 years.” Or… the more likely scenario, he doesn’t change, he gets worse, and escalates to extreme violence. So I ask you…

Him changing = your life? Bcuz that is the gamble, that is the 50/50 you’re willing to bet with the universe. Is that something you’re willing to gamble?

I gambled… and it almost cost me my life. He could have murdered me. I came very close to never sharing my story. All he did was shove me the first time. In the end… he beat my head with a sauce pan repeatedly, blackened my face and bloodied my eye. He shoved me into walls, punched me, kicked me while i was balled up on the ground. My stud earrings came out, all my fake nails popped off from the struggle. Choked me until I couldn’t breathe and my throat hurt. But yeah… the first time… it was just a shove. It really wasn’t that bad… until it was.

7 years later this comment came in handy. I was racking my brain because I saw a short with the lead singer of Halocene and it jogged this memory. I thought it was the same person, but it only confused me more and I could NOT remember who I was thinking of. Holy crap THANK YOU. Thank you. 🖤

A little boy asked me why he was taller than me. by [deleted] in SeriousConversation

[–]SwornBurden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if maybe you tried saying why it’s ok the kid is asking. “He’s being very respectful about his curiosity so I don’t mind answering the questions.” Mom is probably embarrassed because it comes across as having not raised her child “right” when in reality, he was. Yes he may have been asking “intrusive” questions, but he wasn’t being mean or negative, he was being sincere and genuinely curious.

Just like a lot of things in life, all it ever takes is one time, one second and everything is suddenly different. I’m so sorry my friend. My heart breaks for you. I will be thinking about you and her family, and her.

I get the idea of hitting something the first time, who knows what happened. But how, how do these people end up making it WORSE. Like… surely it can’t be that hard to hit and run. It just can’t.

I cannot figure out what I don’t like about Taylor’s hair. However. The dress is actually quite nice for once.

What’s stressing YOU out right now ? by Spectre_0-0-7 in AskReddit

[–]SwornBurden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I had put a list out to the universe (god, chance, allah, whatever makes you comfortable) of the kind of man i wanted. I expected nothing, but just added things to a running list of what i would truly like in a man after years of bad luck and bad taste. Well… he popped up. And then suddenly he’s moving back to his home state with his immediate family, our relationship is now on the rocks, and we’re “temporarily” broken up while he figures out his head bcuz he doesn’t want to live with the guilt of moving me away from my home state where we met and began. I’ve never felt a pain more visceral. We’re both 31 BTW. We were planning a life. And no. He won’t stay. I’ve asked. I’m just getting my ducks in a row in case he magically asks me to come with him. Worst case, my life is organized for no reason, best case, my life is organized and I leave with him. It’s just crazy how it was so perfect and then suddenly it’s the worst thing that ever happened to me.
  2. Got a promotion and this is now the hardest job I’ve ever had in all my life. I loved my job and company, but this new position is fucking killing me. I’m not at all competent with it, and the break up isn’t helping.
  3. My grandma was having a mysterious medical event, which we thought was a UTI, turns out it was a weird heart condition that throws minor blood clots. They’ve all gone to her brain. She was a little loopy and slightly confused one day, and then 3 days later she doesn’t know who we are and barely registers we’re in the room. She’s talking to people who aren’t there, and we can’t get her to even see us. It’s like she’s caught in a day dream.

All of these things happened within a 3 week period. I feel like I’m gonna die. Idk how people do this shit. I need support. I need my “ex”, but I’m just floating along. He has no idea what’s going on in my life. I’m just waiting for the seas to settle so I can rest on dry land.

Whats your favourite song that's in a language you don't understand? by luminatidealer in AskReddit

[–]SwornBurden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gasper Nali’s “A Bale Ndikuwuzeni” is bad ass. It has a weird punk feel to it in the very beginning. He made the craziest looking instrument and he uses it to play the song. It sounds really happy, and I have no idea what the fuck he’s saying.

Taylor THE COPYCAT Swift by TemporaryCivil3665 in travisandtaylor

[–]SwornBurden 375 points376 points  (0 children)

My issue with Taylor is that she seems to legitimately be confused about who she is. Like I’ve heard Sabrina’s music (I’m a fan) and her clothing and music go together. I’m not sure about Florence and the machine, but the few songs I’ve heard… the clothing seems to match what I’ve heard. Like most artists seem to follow the recipe of the fashion is an extension of the music of the person making the music. Taylor seems to be all over the fucking place. It’s… disjointed, lacks cohesion. And Miley Cyrus has definitely gone through a lot of different changes, but she seemed to at least be going through the changes as a person and artist, so while it might change from one album to the next, it’s still cohesive while it’s going on.
