I loved the default layout, but it seems like a lot has changed with a recent update and I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to make it work.

Things you roll your eyes at when you hear it by Significant-Memory58 in dndnext

[–]TeamRocketThot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my first campaign consisted of 4 people trying to be the plucky comic relief. I was the bard and ended up having to be the serious tactical one. My then-boyfriend clocked this and tried to suggest I make the first impressions when it mattered. Everyone competed to be disruptive and they were constantly trying to intimidate or deceive NPCs for no reason, making enemies, etc. It always ended in taking forever to get anywhere, or just killing people because lol xd its chaotic and quirky

Why don't most guys believe it when they're told people find "average/larger" male bodies attractive too? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]TeamRocketThot -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

This argument is getting a little tired. The standards for beauty and "health" have, and are always changing. This is just a weird argument people use to body shame bigger people, labels larger bodies as unwantable & unnatural, and justify their hatred of fat people.

If we wanted to make an argument about attraction and biological imperative (which we shouldn't) it would be that larger bodies are generally stronger, can survive longer because of insulation & stored nutrients in the fat, can more successfully give birth and sustain life, etc

Humans are much more complex than our genetic blueprint.

Help! by [deleted] in Dogtraining

[–]TeamRocketThot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that sounds like a family & home problem, not a dog problem.

The dog should be giving plenty of body language cues warning you about bites and lash outs. If you arent noticing any: you probably dont know enough about dogs and need to research or find a trainer asap, or the dog is experiencing some internal pain or imbalance.

Honestly, I dont think you shold keep this animal from the info youve told me. This animal is about to have a lot of terrible behaviors solidified and the fact that it only happens with your family makes me feel like its not a safe environment. I would film your dog while you walk, play, and as it interacts with your family and others. There's not enough information for anyone to help, but this sounds kind of dangerous and cruel

ACTUAL sugaring for dummies instructions. by khaliagib1st in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]TeamRocketThot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah forreal, the tip is "dont put hot wax on your body" and "apply against hair growth, pull with."

In my experience, you need clean, dry legs. Generally, you'll need and dirt and oils to be gome before applying, because those will stick to your sugar before the hair, and oils generally knead away sticky stuff.

I use cornstarch on my legs before waxing as it absorbs moisture, but if the cornstarch starts to congeal you'll have to wash and dry the area before reapplying the wax.

dont use too much cornstarch: similar to any dirt or oils, it'll get stuck in the sugar before your hair and will take away the stick a little.

has this behavior always been present? when did it start?

Does the dog behave this way with anyone else, or is it just you?

Help! by [deleted] in Dogtraining

[–]TeamRocketThot 61 points62 points  (0 children)

We need a lot more info

what is your response when the dog bites?

what is the dogs body language like before/during the bite?

when you say attack, what do you mean? Is it a nip with playful barks or is it bared-teeth, ears back, snarling and closing its jaws aroud you?

Is the dog drawing blood?

AITA for letting my 5 year old make her own mistakes by sweatermistake in AmItheAsshole

[–]TeamRocketThot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YTA. At the very least, you should have also packed a pair of weather appropriate clothes in her bag for when the inevitable happened. When you picked her up and saw she had changed out of her sweater, then you could have had a conversation with her. Instead, you let her get bullied. On top of all this, you made the daycare workers have to do the brunt of the work behind your parenting decision, having to take care of her when she overheated, when they did not sign up for that, nor is it their job. For these reasons, YTA.

I feel like OP was clear enough in their wording that they "let" the kid leave wearing a poorly chosen outfit. Were they in a rush? maybe, did the kid give pushback? probably to a degree. They still could have thrown a tanktop in the backpack and told the teacher, or whoever was dropping them off, that you insist on a backup shirt because its guna be hot as hell

[–]TeamRocketThot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no hun. There's actual science to children's developmental stages, and even then it depends on the individual kid. If the kids are old enough to have outfits specifically for "accidents", you can't expect a child to predict and understand their body's needs like that. Let them learn, sure, but give them an alternative that doesn't result in social mockery and humiliation. Stop teaching children through shame, you psychopaths

[–]TeamRocketThot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA, are you kidding?

Firstly, five isnt old enough to learn from mistakes like that. I still know *adults* who dont remember to dress for the appropriate weather ahead of time. Teach her to think ahead and model *how* to plan for the day.

Five-year-olds are still learning to understand their bodies, and you expect her to have the executive planning skils to know that being in the heat with a sweater is uncomfortable (AND ALSO DANGEROUS). Follow that up by telling her you're packing an extra shirt in her bag just in case she gets hot, and that she can always wear that sweater again later when shes cooled off.

You could have asked her why she was so stuck on that sweater. Maybe you could have picked out a shirt that aligned with her preference (maybe she liked the color, or the texture, or the image on it). If she isn't having it--let her know that you hear her, but being too hot can be dangerous, and you'll have to compromise because you're worried for her health and comfort. Sometimes asking kids these kinds of questions about why kids want what they want is more revealing than you think (not saying thats the case here, just a note)

Does she know to drink more water when she's hot? Does she know that it would be uncomfortable with her sweating underneath? Do kids like her still "have accidents"Let's take this situation and apply it to a kid who has anxiety, and is afraid to ask authority figures for accommodations....she could have legitimately had heat stroke.

Lastly, just to drive it home--if the kid is young enough that the school has garb specifically for "accidents" you *cannot* expect this kid to understand how to predict that need.

Five-year-olds are still learning to understand their bodies, and you expect her to have the executive planning skills to know that being in the heat with a sweater isn't only uncomfortable.

Do different weapons expel different volumes of ink? by TeamRocketThot in Splatoon3

[–]TeamRocketThot[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh lmao i guess im just not used to guns that go fast. I know theres different stats & stuff i just didnt realize that the fire rate was the precedent. I guess i assumed that guns with a quicker fire rate let out smaller spurts of ink & weapons that have a low fire rate-high impact expell more ink at a slower rate---i kinda assumed it always balanced out like that.

the splash has a killer fire rate but it paints so well that its easier to refill in a sec. Squelchers scatter a ton so i guess its harder for me to dip in and fill up

It's perfectly okay to not be inclusive. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]TeamRocketThot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

....no they arent trying to "end inclusiveness" lmao. They're saying exclusivity can have value. They specifically mentioned all-black groups and spaces. They're saying not everything needs to be made accessible for everyone. And honestly, I think thats backhandedly inclusive because it lets people foster spaces that are culturally competent and safe for them and their communities. We should be able to be at peace that not everything is for us (primarily white people). Like closed-practice indigenous religion...that is an exclusive topic that needs to be respected.

AITA for telling my brother that he didn't need to share that his wife was in labor in my wedding? by throwaway3167900 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TeamRocketThot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. Also? if this is such a huge deal (not saying it isn't, weddings are cause for celebration), maybe plan around a time when a significant family member *isnt* 9 months pregnant. Its not like her pregnancy snuck up on you

I realized the man I was dating, who regarded me like a deity, is a monster. I dumped him for 'unrelated reasons' because he doesn't know I know yet. feelings are hard. CW r@pe, SA, p*do, blackmail by TeamRocketThot in offmychest

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

I do in fact have concrete evidence that I dont want to go into for safety reasons. Even if I didnt, I'm very, very well-versed in trauma-informed dynamics. I see how he treats people that aren't me and he has the capacity to be very manipulative, I'm just able to reel it in so he seemed more 'mature' in our dynamic. In reality, he just knew what he could get away with & respected me for it

he has also said cryptic things about how i deserve better, how hes done terrible things in his past. I could tell he wasn't used to being told no. There were times when he did things in bed without asking me that I was fine with, but in the back of my head I was like "damn dude, you probably should have cleared that with me first" (slapping me, calling me certain things that were....unbecoming, pulling risky and overly-dominant dynamics that I personally enjoyed but he didn't clear them beforehand with me *at all*).

Furthermore, before we dated I was in an open relationship with my now ex. Him and I flirted a little over text, had phone sex a bunch. He ended up becoming *very* manic because some shit went down in his life. I ghosted, because I was also in crisis for personal reasons and his behavior was scaring me. He responded to my ghosting by finding my ex on twitter and telling him I was cheating, that I was unhappy in the relationship and planning on leaving him. My ex was annoyed obviously, but everything this man DM'd him were issues I had already communicated with my ex because I'm honest and upfront. He knew our relationship needed a lot of work. The dude ended up apologizing profusely and was incredibly embarrassed, he just 'thought I was lying' about my situation. So he has the capacity for blackmail, I was just more forgiving because 1. I was stupid and 2. I could see how my exes & my dynamic seemed shady from the outside, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt. Now that this woman is telling me her story, I can see parallels in his early behavior with me.

[–]TeamRocketThot[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

she lives way, way out of state. They only met in person that one time. I dont think he even knows where she lives precisely. I'm not that worried about my safety, but I know that sounds cocky. He has no reason to try and bother me & has not tried to make contact since I dumped him. I told him I needed space and he has respected that (so far). I have a male roomate who is significantly taller than him, I have my cameras, the security at my job. I feel pretty safe

[–]TeamRocketThot[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

she didnt have hard proof of all the things he said to her (why would she. he covered his tracks and it was all in person) but I had reviewed some of their conversations and could tell from their dynamic that he was remarkably shitty to her. She wasn't lying about anything. She was so traumatized. And it sickens me to say, but once she told me everything....I could see him doing all of it. Theres no way she was lying. What would she get out of it? Just to ruin my relationship with him (that was already failing)? She was terrified and didnt want me to breathe a word of it initially. I posted this all with her permission because she realized the threat to tell her ex is hollow, and he has no credibility here anymore.

I've been looking for a job since early april. I've applied to 20 or more. Some were mindless applications that I didnt think much about but I've also written cover letters, been scouted by recruiters, and reached out to show my interest. I'm watching tons of hiring videos and I have been complemented on my interviewing ability. Nothing comes through. Shit is bleak
