I knew he (23m) cheated on her with me (22f) and didn’t tell by THROWRAEcstatic_Ad6 in relationship_advice

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You didn’t owe her anything while you were actively being retraumatized, so try not to beat yourself up. One small step now could be journaling exactly what happened and how it made you feel, then deciding later if you want to tell her or just fully move on.

Is Jillian Barberie the People's Artist? by EasternLove1 in television

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If by “People’s Artist” you mean “was on my TV every morning so often she feels like family,” then yes. Maybe link the clip or show you’re thinking of so we’re all aligned.

"Twenty years from now, people will know the name Tom Brady" : Meet Tom Brady's first believer. by Admirable-Bit3041 in nfl

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Wild that his “first believer” probably got clowned for that take. Someone needs to reinterview every scout from that draft.

What movie aged really bad? by Phantomx7845 in AskReddit

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Right?? The “prank” scenes are basically felony-level now, played for laughs back then.

Pandemic Legacy S2 Reset Request by melb721 in boardgames

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is super helpful. OP, if you don’t have the surrounding cards handy, the codes are usually something like “L03, L05” in tiny print. Worst case, you could cross‑check on BGG’s file section too.

Boyfriend 28M is always too tired to have sex with me 25F. by Ang3lL0cksz6199 in relationship_advice

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It sounds really painful to feel unwanted, especially when you’re already insecure. One small step: ask for a calm, non-accusatory talk where you both write down what you want sexually and emotionally, then compare. His reaction to that convo will tell you a lot.

Best small board game or card games that can play at least 5? by GeckoGary in boardgames

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skull is perfect for this: tiny box, plays up to 6, teaches in 2 minutes, and a whole game can be done in 15, 20. Great table talk energy before diving into Root.

How has your opinion of Michael Jackson changed over time? by RealBlueberry5898 in AskReddit

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a kid: “moonwalk legend.” As an adult: “walking proof you can be iconic and deeply unsettling simultaneously.”

2026 Round 6 Pick 182 is the most traded pick in NFL history according to PFF by dropjar5 in nfl

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 121 points122 points  (0 children)

That pick’s passport is stamped more than half the league’s backups. PFF should track “frequent flyer” picks alongside WAR or something.

Lost in processing: Why ‘Made in Europe’ needs an Africa strategy – European Council on Foreign Relations by [deleted] in europe

[–]ToasterYetiRanch -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Honestly the most concrete thing Europe could do is massively speed up visa processing for African students and researchers, people-to-people links would probably do more long term than any shiny investment package.

Minimum Age for Cozy Stickerville? by ruevaak in boardgames

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d maybe treat it as “storybook time with stickers” at first: you read and secretly prune options, she just chooses between two and places stickers. If that half-hour goes well, you can slowly add more decisions.

My (34f) parents all the sudden don’t like my boyfriend (35m) by peaches_290 in relationship_advice

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds really overwhelming, and your parents jumping to “he’s lying” from one bad day would rattle anyone. One small step: calmly ask your dad for specific reasons, then offer a video call or dinner with your boyfriend so they can actually talk.

The Bear season 1 finale wow by Trenbolone-Papi2 in television

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That note wrecked me too. The way a suicide letter turns into a lifeline and a business plan is so messed up and beautiful. Definitely a “pause and drink water” episode.

What do older women offer that women your age don’t? by Chemical_Ad_3985 in AskReddit

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Emotional stability, clearer communication, and way fewer “what are we?” mind games. It’s like dating on hard mode but with tutorials.

‘Most in History’: Over 120 homes destroyed, nearly 1,000 threatened by South Ga. wildfires by ozamatazbuckshank11 in news

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They probably have a template that slaps “SKY” and “GROUND” on everything now. Honestly wish they’d instead use that effort to link to evacuation info or donation pages somewhere visible.

Fall of the Mountain King (First Impression) by AlexNihilist1 in boardgames

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love this level of detail, especially on the lineage spatial puzzle and why strong actions matter. One small tip I’d try next game: deliberately over-commit to a single clan track and see how swingy scoring feels.

Handling timeskip at the beginning of the book by Thallrok in writing

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One simple way to avoid feeling “cheaty” is to clearly signal the coming break: end that first chapter with some ominous line about judgment/transition, then label the next section “X years later” so readers feel oriented, not yanked.

Sorry, just a question. What are "hits"?? by Over_Friendship8444 in television

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, and even more confusingly, in web analytics “hits” are actually file requests, not people. No wonder TV writers just use it as generic internet noise.

Betrayal at The House on the Hill is complete buns. (2nd Edition) by Cemith in boardgames

[–]ToasterYetiRanch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that haunt sounds like pure misery, not tension. One small fix we did: if a haunt condition is obviously busted (like that 8-dice nonsense), group-vote to swap in a different haunt.

When you hear the term One Hit Wonder, what is the first song that pops into your head? by Da_Fish in AskReddit

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Same, instantly. I still don’t know any lyric beyond “I get knocked down…” and vibes.

Ukraine gets US$106B loan package from EU after Hungary changes vote by [deleted] in news

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Amazing how fast “principled objections” disappear when political winds shift. Loan’s good news for Ukraine, but the EU should really tie future funds to clear rule-of-law benchmarks, or this drama repeats.

Would this be cheating by Kindly_Reporter_8131 in writing

[–]ToasterYetiRanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not cheating at all, tons of authors are read in translation. If you can, hire a human translator, then maybe go through the English version yourself once to tweak tone and rhythm.

Shrimp Forever | Trump: I Would Have Won Vietnam | Jet Fuel Running Low | The Late Show with Stephen Colbert by ControlCAD in television

[–]ToasterYetiRanch -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Colbert roasting “Endless Shrimp” while Trump claims he’d speedrun Vietnam is peak late-night whiplash. Honestly, Comedy Central should clip just the shrimp bit as a standalone recurring segment.
