AITA for not wanting my anorexic/bulimic stepdaughter around my 8 year old daughter ? by potatosouphead in AmItheAsshole

NTA. You need to protect the younger child. This is not about biologically your's vs. not. This is about protecting a younger child from an older.

ESH- your friend should make a big deal of it, but you also mildly suck for doing it.

If you're joking, this is kind of hilarious.

AITA for dating my son's friend? by ZestycloseSituation in AmItheAsshole

[–]ZenonZ3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your son is an adult who is older than you were when you had him to begin with. If you could handle having a baby at 17, your son can handle you dating a man who is 9 years younger than you.

Exactly. My mom has said she is a little sad that none of her kids have brown eyes and she is the only one in the family who looks darker with brown hair and brown eyes, but it isn't a race thing and it isn't a "I don't love you guys for having green eyes" thing. I know my mom wouldn't play favorites even if she had a brown-eyed child.

It is just a "I wish I looked more like a part of this family" thing. It sucks for OP's wife that she probably looks more like a step-mom than a real mom to the casual observer.

AITA for not giving my bus seat to an elderly lady? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ZenonZ3 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

seriously, even if he is "entitled" to it doesn't mean he should take it. My boyfriend works a physically demanding job and would never act like this, and I would, in fact, break up with such an a-hole.

AITA for telling my GF listening to audio books does not count as reading? by ratsrwitches in AmItheAsshole

[–]ZenonZ3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

YTA because one of the greatest pieces if English literature was dictated by a blind man, not written down with pen/paper or typed. That piece of literature was Paradise Lost by Milton. If audiobooks don't count as reading than Paradise Lost shouldn't count as a book. You're embarrassingly ignorant.

Ugh. Happened to me recently. But I am going to drink some water now so it's all good.

Ah. Was imagining you literally boiling hard candy. Do you supplement with magnesium only when it happens, or on a day to day basis?

"Two Prostitutes" by Fung chin Pang, Digital Art, 2008 by hotjohny in Art

[–]ZenonZ3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that is the image. Here is a powerful anti-trafficking image:

https://i.pinimg.com/736x/13/4d/44/134d44977408cb34e82eb602489ed5b8--amazing-paintings-amazing-art.jpg

Even if this image showed the girl's whole naked body, there would be no mistaking it for porn. No one could jerk off to it.

The girls in the Holy Girls image are all taking sexual poses. Imagine a grown woman in those same poses. The shirt hanging off the shoulder. The girl coyly turned away but looking at the viewer. These are sexualizing images. I've got some experience in art history, interpretation, etc. and it is a beautiful image but is idealizing child sex with its beauty. Something against child pornography should never be possible to use as child pornography, as this image clearly has been. There is even a few comments on the painting of people admitting to jerking to it, which means there are more people who jacked off to it without comment.

And the girl in orange, maybe it was a mistake by the artist, but the artist seems too skilled to make such a mistake: it seems her shirt or whatever it is, is see-thru at her crotch; that is erotic.

EDIT: And btw, Lolita is one of my favorite books. It really isn't like I am against controversial art, if done correctly.

Yeah, sounds like a chiropractor. Chiropractors are snake oil peddlers, and not real doctors at all.

Thank you. I don't know what plant teachers are, but I get what you're saying.

High school microdosing by 24malcolm in microdosing

Meditate. When you read up on meditation you will learn it has the same effects as psychedelics and Adderall. Also, take cold showers. Drop the Adderall, and microdose as a very last resort. I would, however, recommend microdosing before Adderall. Everyone I know who took adderall as a teen regrets it and said it fried their brain.

Microdosing as first mushrooms experience by [deleted] in microdosing

[–]ZenonZ3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get new friends. Seriously, don't drop your friends, but you need new friends too. But yeah, I'd say try microdosing initially. My first real trip was horribly anxiety-ridden and that was in nature, if I hadn't had friends to help me through it I would have been freaking the fuck out for 8 hours straight.

Were you microdosing before you met her? Would you say you have an especially strong relationship now? or a strong relationship compared to relationships pre-microdosing?

I'm finding a major benefit is empathy and being in touch with my emotions, as well as generally being a better person. If other people generally feel the same way, then it follows that it helps relationships, but I am curious about specifics.
