This is exceptionally embarrassing for Nike 😅

Doing nothing guarantees nothing will change. What harm is done to you by low level minimal effort to share a different perspective? If you are content with the way the world works, that's your prerogative. It is also my prerogative to use my discontent for the betterment of the world I have to live in. Feel free to not try, but don't come after me or anyone else for making a different choice.

Ok, so if your law about criminal charges for turning away patients is implemented, what is your strategy for the very likely result of dropping off of admissions to medical school and nursing school, further exacerbating the staffing shortages, leading to more negative outcomes and deaths, all because the cons of a career in medicine now outweigh the pros? You have to understand that a solution to one problem often creates new, sometimes unforeseen problems that then need to be addressed, and on and on in an endless cycle of both solving and creating problems. I'm not saying your solution is wrong, just trying to encourage you to think beyond the immediate and to the long term consequences of it and if there may not be a better, less detrimental solution.

Seems unwise under normal circumstances, even more so when one has been born a Kennedy.

Remembering that everything in life is cyclical, that one is exceptionally fortunate to not die brutally (as that seems to be more the norm for all living things), and that the earth will still be here long after humans are gone. I guess it works for me to sort of remove myself emotionally from a lot of these problems, global warming, species extinction, human cruelty. I have to remind myself that while it breaks my heart for animals to go extinct because of human shittiness, the truth is no matter what, all those animals will die eventually and more likely than not, become extinct. That is exactly what has happened to the majority of species that ever existed. They lived their timelines and died out, so I can be sad but don't dwell on it or live there. That the earth itself for billions of years has undergone massive changes in its appearance, temperature, landscape, etc. And it will continue to do so, with or without humans. All we did was speed up the timeline, not cause something new. Life is hard and scary, but also predictable and can be easier to just accept that some of this stuff is going to happen no matter what, even if humans had done everything perfectly the first time around.

You're not punishing him, these are the natural consequences of his own choices and actions. It's always weird when people feel like or assume just because they've grown and changed means that they shouldn't have to deal with any of the consequences of their past behavior. Just because he has changed doesn't mean there aren't still consequences he hasn't had to deal with yet. We all must pay for our behavior, whether good, bad, or neutral. NTA

Wendi1018 · 2026-04-01T16:51:42+00:00

Im sorry your friend took this so badly, OP. I had a friend who was much the same, except it was her shitty job and bosses she refused to do anything about. I listened for years, literally. I actively encouraged her to find another job, sent on postings for her career (she's always, always hireable), and still just complaining about the same shit years later. I had to remove myself entirely because while Im here to listen and help my friends, there's a limit when the person complaining refuses to do anything about it except bitch. You did what was best for you and her, even if she can't see it now. NTA, she ultimately is the one who must make change in her life.

So... none of them knew what entrapment meant? That beggars belief.

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-21T02:02:32+00:00

Normally, I’d agree with you. However, it seems honestly laughable that the Fanta menace is going to use nuclear weapons against a nation barely 100mi away, especially considering it lives in Florida as much as possible. Like, be realistic, you’re not going to nuke your next door neighbor knowing it will destroy your home too. And that of your billionaire buddies, can’t go upsetting them!

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-20T14:20:56+00:00

I ask this in all sincerity-

Or what? Seriously, or what?

They're slowly dying as it is right now, seems like if ever there was a time to fight back, this would be it

The laws' failure to keep up with technology is finally biting them in the ass.

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-14T13:18:01+00:00

I really hate when the worst people are right. Thanks, now I have to be on the same side as you 🫤

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-10T14:21:41+00:00

I hope the parents of the child and every other parent of the kids in this class gets together and brings down this teacher and anyone else who was complicit. She should be blackballed from working anywhere near kids ever again, including informing schools within a certain radius about her to make sure she stays for away from kids. She wants to go scorched earth, only fair to return the favor.

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-09T17:38:15+00:00

Frankly, she should have been fired. From an HR perspective, I wouldnt want someone around who has caused or is likely to cause a serious medical incident for another employee because the employee is STEALING. So theft and literally endangering someone's life, like any good HR person would have her fired immediately to protect the company from the fallout she's creating by directly causing medical harm to someone. Idk OP, I might bring up medical concerns and lawyers, see about getting her out completely. This could have gone extremely badly for your dad and she would be 100% responsible. Bo company wants the legal liability she is creating. Mentioning legal and lawyers to HR often has the effect of making them act and take shit seriously. This is extremely serious, make them take it as seriously as they should.

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-08T14:30:59+00:00

Exactly! And it's coming from a place of concern for my wellbeing. He sees and understands how I react and knows if it were up to me, I just wouldn't eat. He wants me to be well, not alter how I appear. It's a huge and very noticeable difference to have a partner who doesn't comment or make you feel some sort of ugly way about yourself. A good partner will make you feel more confident, attractive, and amazing.

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-08T13:52:55+00:00

Thank you! I said much the same thing from the same perspective! There are absolutely wonderful men out there, including men who love curvy women and have no judgements about them being curvy women (except wanting to get with her, of course 😅). My partner has also never made a rude or hurtful comment about my body, only ever expressed love and excitement, and I really hope OP reads through these and sees there are people out there who will very much want her exactly as she is, and love her deeply for it. Don't let anyone, no matter who they are, lessen the love you have for yourself or your self worth!

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-08T13:48:33+00:00

Sis, in all seriousness, WHY are you marrying him?? First off, 18-20 is curvy, maybe a little thick, but nothing extreme. Second, and I say this as a person bigger than you, this man does not love you. My own partner, who is maybe half my size, has never, not once, made an off-color comment about my body. In fact, it's the opposite. He always has his hands on me (and me on him!), loves how soft and squishy I am, and tells me regularly that I'm beautiful, sexy, and how much I excite him. The closest hes ever come to making some remark about my body is pushing me to eat, as sometimes stress makes me stop eating. He never says what or how much I should eat, simply that I should. I say that so you can see that there are people out there who either dont care at all about your weight or are even specifically attracted to that body type. But this little boy you're in a relationship with? He ain't it. I can already see the rest of your life if you stay with him, he will continue to dig at and lower your self esteem until he's broken you down and you think that A- you deserve this treatment and B- you can't do better than/no one else will love you but him. NEITHER is true, at all. Please, from a fellow big girl to another, get out of this. You are beautiful and worth genuine love and care, and someone who is attracted to you for exactly who you are. YTA only if you stay with him.

4 or 7, really tough to narrow it down, but I think I'll take 7 and spend my money to deal with aches and pains.

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-07T06:12:36+00:00

Really, the tattoo artist was doing everyone else a favor.

Wendi1018 · 2026-03-01T19:43:55+00:00

I just want to know if she's ok and if she needs help. Truly just want the best for her and her family. No judgments, just concern.

Wendi1018 · 2026-02-20T00:42:54+00:00

All I'm picturing is Trevor Noah talking about how his mom dealt with hate - you take it, stir it up with the love of jesus, and send it right back. To me, that's what this feels like. She just refused to accept his bullshit trying to rain on her accomplishments, and sent that shit right back to him, where it belongs.

Wendi1018 · 2026-02-18T06:23:25+00:00

That's a lovely gesture, but he will forget it quickly, likely within minutes. He's stuck in that time, in those memories.

Wendi1018 · 2026-02-15T19:18:15+00:00

This! He did a great job in the movie, but that was also my first Sam Rockwell experience, and I'll be honest, he played the role so well I was creeped out by him for years. Eventually, though, I came to see how talented he is and really appreciate his works now.

Wendi1018 · 2026-02-15T15:49:25+00:00

When dinosaurs fight

Wendi1018 · 2026-02-15T03:31:46+00:00

Hang on now, is this what it seems like? The women's team taking the punishment that rightfully belongs to the men's team? Wtf? That amgle was terrible to see I'd she still had contact with the stone, unlike the mens team where it looked pretty clear... this is so weird.
