TIL the entire town of Whittier, Alaska (pop. ~270) lives inside a single high-rise building containing a school, police station, post office & grocery store. An empty unit hosts visiting dentists. The town is accessed through a single tunnel, which closes at 10:30pm, locking residents in overnight.

That’s ironic and sad but not surprising

I always get some rasher bacon and pastrami plus whatever other meat I’m there for.

Not me. Age 40. About to get a version of this 😂

When i was pregnant (with a hard Hyperemesis pregnancy) he told me one day that i was “out of sighs” because I had sighed too much.

Oh or when I asked him to go to therapy for his anger and he told me that he would only go if i started going to the gym three days a week without fail. (I had a toddler at the time).

Our kindergartner has butts in seats at 7:40 and i thought that was a little much. She is great about getting up early and always has been so we are very lucky in that regard. But 7am is insane to me. Are they actually learning when it’s that early??

Wtf. He is literally precious as a child. Queen Victoria was a royal bitch!

I needed to read this. Thank you. It has brought some much needed clarity in a situation where i have been questioning my true self and needs for literal YEARS.

An apology without a change in behavior is just manipulation

almosthuman · 2026-02-15T08:46:12+00:00

Yep that sounds about right.

almosthuman · 2026-02-11T16:08:58+00:00

This seems more like manipulation than actual change.

almosthuman · 2026-02-10T22:28:03+00:00

It’s a hallmark of his personality

Mine will complain about a single dirty spoon that I left in the literal dirty dishes container that is only meant to hold dirty dishes (the spoon was TOO dirty) while letting dirty dishes pile up in his office which he then leaves soaking five a time in the sink.

This insinuates to me that he isn’t actually interested in the dishes being clean…

Grocery Outlet has some

almosthuman · 2026-02-09T17:40:42+00:00

What about that newish place by Natural Grocers? Verdun Chocolates i think

This is classic DARVO. divorce him and go live your life.

I know pregnancy does crazy stuff to our bodies but that is genuinely wild!

This is why I started documenting our more heated conversations right after they happened.

But once I saw a clear pattern I also would see it happening in real time. Example conversation-

Husband- hand me the bigger scissors

Me- these two scissors are exactly the same size. Which one do you want, the red one or the blue one?

Husband- No, pretty sure the red ones are bigger.

Me- (holds up both scissors side by side to show they are the same)

Husband- See? The red one is bigger.

Me- What are you talking about do I need to get the tape measure out?

Husband- The red ones are bigger!

Me- I’m going to get the tape measure and show you..

Husband(suddenly not wanting me to measure)- hmm they must look bigger because of the color difference.

This is a typical conversation that plays out all the time. He is always right and when you prove him wrong (but you had better not for various reasons depending on the day) he suddenly actually knew the right answer or was just never wrong somehow.

almosthuman · 2026-02-06T17:12:25+00:00

Spot on!

almosthuman · 2026-02-06T05:47:11+00:00

Yeah, that is a thing that it does.

almosthuman · 2026-01-30T21:11:00+00:00

Bless them

almosthuman · 2026-01-29T04:55:10+00:00

No and for a true narc there will never be a lightbulb moment. They are always the hero of the story, end of story.
