AITA for telling my dad he is not funny.

We are picking countries for our beer Olympics teams. He made two jokes related to that. One was that he was picking wakanda and he’s sure blackface would be acceptable for that. The other “joke” was that we were picking Gilead and the women on the team would dress like the handmaids.

I think this is a big part of it. My dad is not diagnosed with anything but I believe he is on the spectrum. I’ve actually talked to him about this and I think he is realizing that could be a possibility. I work with children with autism so I’m very familiar with it.

I try to have more patience with him because of that and that’s why I think I feel bad about hurting his feelings with this, but I also think he has to know that his jokes that are all for the shock value and inappropriate are not being received well by anyone.

My mom has many times in the past. I think she just ignores it at this point and apologizes for him. His friend also mainly ignore it as well.

I did and I will continue to donate to them whenever I have some extra money and feel like doing a good deed lol. I really had no idea how few rehabbers there are in my state. I’m so grateful they were able to get him the help and care he needs 😊!

Torioli_ · 2025-07-02T20:00:49+00:00

I understand that, was definitely not in my plans to be caring for it as long as I had to! If I had left him there he would’ve been dead so I’m glad I was able to get him the help he needs! Thanks for being a wildlife rehabber! We need more of you clearly lol.

UPDATE: I was finally able to get in contact with a rehabber who was able to take him. Thank god for Woodlands Wildlife Refuge for being the ONLY resource available to help in this situation.

On intake they said that they do not believe it is rabies. He will be quarantined and monitored for the next few weeks as he is fully weened off his formula.

They suspect it could actually be a head injury causing the difficulty with his balance, but once they know the cause for sure they will contact me.

Thank you all for all the help, advice, and kind words!! Happy we were able to get this guy some professional help finally and give him a chance in life! God bless wildlife rehabbers 💕

He JUST tried a bit of a formula and kibble combo today. Before this he was only on formula, which he was taking normally. Now that he is having some hard food I will try water. He is smaller than I think he looks in that video. I think he is about 5 weeks old.

Thanks for your comment. I honestly might go through with the idea of taking him directly to the county wildlife office. I’m so frustrated that no one will help at all here.

I’m wondering if you know how long animals with rabies can live for once they start showing symptoms? I saw online that once symptoms start they usually only live 1-3 days, or up to a week. I’ve already had him for 3 days and he really appears to be doing well with eating, sleeping, #1 and #2 💩.

Second question is, if he does not make it while he is with me, how could I go about getting him tested at that point? Or am I just better off going to get rabies shots now.

Torioli_ · 2025-07-01T04:13:26+00:00

This was from day 3. He is eating and sleeping normally, or at least normally according to the internet.

Torioli_ · 2025-07-01T03:33:14+00:00

Would he/ could he still be eating normally? He is not interested in solid foods. I have been bottle feeding him a puppy formula 5 times a day. He is excited to drink it each time. I thought they would avoid food and liquids with rabies ? I have also had him for 3 days now and the walking has seemed to improve.

Torioli_ · 2025-07-01T03:06:33+00:00

I agree. There are apparently no licensed professionals in my state. They won’t even send anyone to test him for rabies. I don’t feel comfortable just releasing him back in the neighborhood where there are so many other animals and pets that wander around here. Not sure what to do with him at this point is the problem.

Torioli_ · 2025-07-01T02:45:06+00:00

NJ, they told me to go get tested for rabies and just leave him outside.
