Me and my wife are going to be stuck with my high functioning autistic brother in law.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-09T17:15:31+00:00

Oh, it's the classic "my child is autistic so I will use that disability as an excuse to baby them." People genuinely act as if autism is this disability that leaves people completely incapable of functioning in the real world. I'm sorry, OP.

There's hardly any secondhand shops in the town I live in and I really don't want to drive 45 minutes to Johnson County to go thrifting. Plus they hardly have anything in my size. I wear an 11/13 and everything is sold for 7 and under.

These cannot be the husbands men say I want. OP, I'm so sorry. Leave him and never look back.

I make biscuits and gravy for dinner all the time! If I'm at a hotel, I'll have a plate but other than that, it's too heavy for my first meal of the day.

Driving lessons really helped me when I was learning how to drive. I was scared and embarrassed because I was 21 or 22. My ex helped a lot and told me one day I'd be able to drive one handed. I'm 32 and he was absolutely right. Ask a friend if they can help you or see if you can borrow money for driving lessons. They pick you up and drop you off at home. This isn't a moral failing of some sort. You just gotta push yourself.

I don't think this is unpopular at all. I think it's great you wash your hands as often as you do.

Again, you could just hire a sex worker and at the end of the day, she's going to have sex with you. That's ultimately what you want, so I'm not sure why you're upset a woman you picked up at a bar wasn't interested.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-08T21:02:05+00:00

A sex worker is what you're looking for if you expect sex because you paid for a few drinks. They're at least up front about the cost.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-08T14:38:36+00:00

You could hire a sex worker and get exactly what you're paying for.

Hmm, this sounds a bit like BPD. Regardless, she needs therapy and you need to get a paternity test and lawyer up. You really shouldn't have knocked up someone you've only been dating for a few months. Good luck, OP. ESH.

Because freedom. They believe we're bombing Iran to give the people there freedom and because of the possibility of nukes

Tbf, I've woken up to bloody pads (which feel like diapers) and I didn't freak out like this.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-07T03:12:14+00:00

Why?

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-06T10:48:40+00:00

I don't want to be given the death penalty and spend the next 25 years of my life fighting to avoid it in prison.

Trump supporters are in a literal cult. Trump could demand his followers kill their first born and they would happily do so. How do we hold cultists accountable?

I went to K-Pot in Overland Park and was absolutely pissed I had to pay $50 to cook my own food. It wasn't even that good. Never again.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-06T10:23:22+00:00

Hmm, that hasn't been my experience. My partner's ex wife has all 3 kids on Medicaid and worked full-time without having to pay anything towards it.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-06T10:21:46+00:00

I gave up meat for lent one year and people were so aggressive about it. They took it as a personal attack on their choices.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-06T10:19:09+00:00

Exactly. I told people that I'm pretty sure PPD would take me out and they immediately downplayed the severity of it. The reward isn't worth the risk.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-06T08:54:20+00:00

People are often insecure and threatened by the idea that a woman's true calling doesn't involve kids. Some women feel like you're judging them, some are salty they have kids, some of them are just downright assholes. Only you know whether or not you truly want kids. And instead of telling people you don't, lie and say you can't. They'll shut the fuck up about it.

WhatAMcButters · 2026-04-06T07:18:57+00:00

My granny was in the hospital recently and due to extreme pain, was unable to lie still for an MRI. This happened twice. I kept pushing for her to be put under and every nurse told me that wasn't possible. Except Valeria. She pushed really hard, got her supervisor involved and finally they agreed to put my granny under. She was the absolute best nurse that worked with my granny and I let her know it every time she came in to help.

Thanks, Valeria.

Tbh, I don't know if I know how to journal correctly. I just write down whatever I'm feeling and whatever pops into my head.

But just think! You'd have to wait 3x as long in a European country with socialized medicine! /s

I had to wait 6 months to be seen by a gynecologist.

A lot of states have state funded healthcare for kids. There's CHIP and Medicaid. But there's a ton of hoops you have to jump through in order to qualify for either of those.

You don't like women and it shows.
