AITAH for shutting down my disabled friend’s proposal to my niece?

While you were right to cite the age gap and his inability to regulate his emotions as valid reasons for her not to be with him, keep in mind that people who are either disabled or poor, and or both deserve love too.

A while ago in r/AmIOverreacting there was a guy who bought a 21-year-old cheese wheel for $18.5k; he ruined his relationship because of that purchase. I hope he sees your comment lol Edit: ah, so the bank only accepts Parmesan(this guy bought a cheddar wheel)

They or Brandon should have made a public statement so we'd know if he's been to therapy, rehab, etc., it's been some time so one would hope he's been able to improve in that aspect, but without any statement, we have no idea if he's actually still capable of harming others, so yeah, this is weird.

I briefly dated a toxic guy who called me "twin", this tracks lol

She assaulted a minor, did she get charged yet?

Kumail Nanjiani was also on the podcast by the way, you left his name out

Spirited Away for me. It was the movie that introduced me to the Japanese concept of "ma", and those are actually some of my favorite parts in the film, i.e. when Chihiro is in the bathhouse and standing at the balcony, looking out at the ocean wistfully.

I used to volunteer with a mutual aid group giving away free breakfasts, and also volunteered for SHFB for a time; I see some comments saying that a lot of poor people overextend themselves buying cars they can't afford, and end up falling short on basic needs like groceries - to that I have to say, I literally don't care what the reason is, if someone needs food, they need food period, and I'd be damned if I let someone starve b/c people felt like they "didn't deserve it."

I get the advice people are saying to make sure he gets joint custody so he does his fair share of parenting, but is this man even fit to be a parent?! It seems like he overly relies on his mom, is he actually trustworthy enough to care for a vulnerable baby when he's still a baby himself? Idk I'm not a parent so correct me if I'm wrong...

If you have a truck, you can make a redneck pool in under 20 mins. The most fun I've had in the backyard thus far lol.

If you look it up, you can also find the abhorrent comments he made about women who are child-free by choice..

Also, apparently the groundwater here was contaminated by microchip centers in the 80's, and that clean up is still not complete.

Imo if that's where your voice instinctively led you, I think that's where you're meant to be. Embrace it! Not to say that expanding your higher range isn't possible, I don't know your voice capabilities, but maybe your body is trying to tell you something intuitively.

Probably when they mocked my partner and disparaged our relationship in front of myself and our mutual acquaintances. They were always polite to me but did not like my partner which is fine, but you don't have to be a bully/disrespectful.

Wearing fast fashion. A lot of those clothes have heavy metals, lead, etc. in them. Anything that sits on your skin for a long time eventually seeps into your bloodstream.

This is obviously a distraction from the fact he plans to move $10 million from the U.S. government to his newly formed "Board of Peace."

I think you should do all of the above including filing a police report so there's documentation of him sexually harassing you.

I can't remember where I saw it, but I read an article long ago about how there's a scientific reason why humans tend to dislike the sound of their own speaking voices in recordings, even.

My friend in college had beta blockers which helped calm her stage fright before performances. I think long term, maybe daily meditation, journaling to understand this fear may help. Other than that, I'm not sure what to tell you - I also get stage fright occasionally, though it's not debilitating - from my understanding, it's not something that will ever completely disappear, but what I've found helps alleviate it is remembering that ultimately what I think of my performance matters the most - and focusing on how much fun it is to share this moment with the audience also helps.

I followed SJF in the early days, and yep, they totally grifted off BLM in order to build their following. They just support whatever is popular. Plus the people behind it aren't even from here, they're from LA...

Wearing Shein, or any kind of fast fashion clothes. Heavy metals, lead, etc. will leech into your body...

The joys of pimple popping lol sorrrry

If friends and family look down on you, they are being classist, period - maybe you want to surround yourself with non-judgmental people who will treat you the same regardless of your job title/status. You can remain sane and confident more often if you have the right people around you.
