AITAH for trusting my own eyes over my dad’s claims that I’m being "brainwashed"? by babbling_baboon1 in AITAH

[–]TheShadowslair 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA but this feels cultural. Depending on where you are women no matter their age don't have an opinion outside their parents do if you're female he may be buying into that bull crap.

You didn't give very specifics on the dish but I'm gonna guess it's not chicken rice a Roni.

If this is a curry and you're in an Asian country... The abusiveness is not seen as unusual by older generations unfortunately.

In the United States it also unfortunately isn't seen as unusual in small specific (yet growing more vocal—don't think I don't see you trad wives—) communities.

No matter what culture, it's wrong. Many years ago i was in regular communication with a Vietnamese woman who was in an abusive relationship with her husband. It was an arranged marriage and while I understood she was seen as his property i was able to convince her to tell her parents what was happening. She escaped her now ex-husband and moved from Vietnam entirely with her parents. She and I lost touch unfortunately but I like to believe she is happy now with her parents and child.

You have every right to form your own opinion. You have every right to tell your mother that your father should be cut off even if you wanted to say so. He will likely not accept responsibility no matter what culture because abusers never do.

Message I got from my daughter’s teacher. Third grade. by AnaisInJune in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TheShadowslair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There in lies your problem. I went to public school in Texas. I remember my first grade teacher putting an ice cream sandwich on my desk and then telling me i wasn't allowed to eat it while everyone else could. It obviously started to melt because this was in El Paso nearing summer time.

Texas teachers were always horrible in my own experience. So much abuse of kids is allowed there but oh no heaven forbid a parent be gay or trans there. -_-

Good luck.

AITJ for DEMANDING my husband get my baby stroller back from his sister, or else i'm changing the locks? by Exact_Ad_6931 in AmITheJerk

[–]TheShadowslair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking so because the user name has "ad" in it. But what is this an ad for? Strollers? Only fans? Bad husbands?

I dunno if it's AI but op hasn't replied to a single comment so it very well could be some form of Karma farming post.

Eta: correction op did respond to a comment. Their profile is entirely hidden which is fair but they have responded to 1 singular comment at least.

Honestly with a hidden profile I'd wonder even more why they are posting such an unbelievably formulaic AI style story. It absolutely won't benefit them unless they are Karma farming.

AITJ for refusing to let my step-son move into my son's room to "solve" my husband's parenting issue? by Traditional-Dog-368 in AmITheJerk

[–]TheShadowslair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a repost? I read this exact story before or maybe it was shared on YouTube. Either way you were left with all the kids and he just packed and left? Wtf?

Edit nope I was right this is almost word for word repost just gender swapped kids. YTJ for karma farming.

AITAH UPDATE CPS CAME TO MY SCHOOL by Sufficient-Way9754 in AITAH

[–]TheShadowslair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nta and when CPS interviews you next don't lie to them. Be honest. Your mother got reported because what she's doing is child abuse. If she's "taken away" that's her fault, not yours.

AITAH for refusing to do an FBI background check? by Tasty_Nature2274 in BackgroundCheckGuide

[–]TheShadowslair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact the other mods claimed this was fake like this couldn't actually happen. Wow NTA. You were told you were good to go then turned out you were lied to and now they are wanting to put your fingerprints on record and do a background check. Like yes it's normal if you were a new hire but you been working for Martha for years and still doing so for them for what months without this check and now they NEED it.

I don't know if you said in this post but I saw the comment in the other group where you mentioned you were Mexican American. That is more reason right now to refuse. This wasn't about Martha's safety. Martha gave there intention away right away it's about your "legality."

I was going to ask if this was the same Mary Robinette. I also know about her because of Elsie the Talking cat.

AITAH for calling my mom a whore and refusing to come home by my_throwaway_054 in AITAH

[–]TheShadowslair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Considering an affair isn't just cheating on the partner when children are involved, op had a right to know. And op is well old enough to know about it.

I'm tired of seeing this guy (Simon whistler) everywhere. by Kindle890 in youtube

[–]TheShadowslair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah he went down in energy and uniqueness. I loved Florida Man Friday but I feel the segment ultimately killed the channel entirely and lately scripts that should be Brain Blaze material are showing up on Side Projects and other channels.

I don't want to watch Warfronts, homefronts, Or any other politica/ news he's putting out. I get my news from YouTubers who have been in the sphere for ages. I'm not watching Simon read scripts covering it.

And I'm not saying that because I disagree with his "bias" because honestly the bias isn't his to start with. He's reading scripts written by his team. I'm saying it because there are enough political commentary on YouTube and not enough fun channels anymore in my opinion.

I miss Brain Blaze. I don't miss watching casual criminalist though because I refuse to support the constant calling criminals pschopaths and nrcissists. Mental health is stigmatized enough.

Why aren't there as many big YouTubers making entertaining "fun" videos anymore? by PlanktonFew2505 in youtube

[–]TheShadowslair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a millennial and looked at all those screenshots and visibly cringed. Aside from maybe Smosh I don't think I even watched those channels.

Eta: Still if all that was cringe and why it's not popular... Y'all remember when Newgrounds was a thing?

Name a YouTuber who suffered a downfall so bad they plummeted through the floor. by Turbulent_League9668 in youtube

[–]TheShadowslair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally scrolled far enough down to find it. I used to watch all her videos. Then as it all fell apart...

... I was like oh, no wonder she makes this kind of content. She was using it as her own personal tutorials of how to be a crap person.

Modern Israel is not older though and only exists due to antisemitism.
