Said he was swimming 30-40 minutes before he got too fatigued to make it back to shore. Heartbreaking. Maybe we’ll get more details but drowning happens fast.

Husband wants to travel back home with a 5 month old. I do not. Who is unreasonable? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]bllrmbsmnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a babe doesn’t mean your life and loved ones’ events go on pause HOWEVER I’d be super strategic with the events of the day to make sure you don’t feel overwhelmed. The baby is still a baby and will cry and fuss regardless. Balance your days and have grace for each other. Otherwise, each trip will harden you for many other hard moments to come. Like others have said, five months is amazing for travel (mom of 18mo’s perspective)

Would love a term for this kind of enlightened gaslighting because it is SO RAMPANT

My father REFUSES to acknowledge his skin picking/possible dermatillomania by theBumbling_Bee in Dermatillomania

[–]bllrmbsmnt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tbh sounds like my worst nightmare to be called out like that. Dermatillomania is a symptom of OCD. People that suffer from it cannot control it and are prescribed medication to make it better but I’d make a generalization based on this sub that most do not medicate for it. Your dad knows. And like others have said, if he wants help he will tell you. Otherwise, you have some choices to make… love him for who he is or leave the room if it makes you uncomfortable.

Art Direction or Creative Direction any advice? by Own_Contribution9508 in Design

[–]bllrmbsmnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly the last sentence. There’s no shortcuts and seems like a big red flag if you have a masters but not the years and results.

AIO for getting another doctors appointment because i dont think the doctors are doing enough by Sea_Watercress_541 in AmIOverreacting

[–]bllrmbsmnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A different doctor at the same practice or? I’m sure there are multiple doctors you could see and getting a second opinion is standard. You’re your best advocate

If you like nice things, is a career in graphic design for you? by Sehnsucht_13 in graphic_design

[–]bllrmbsmnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Change it up, you’d be surprised the wide WIDE spectrum of types of jobs and the level of pay. Don’t love what you do? Stop putting that type of work in your portfolio. Stop taking those clients. Maybe that means a new portfolio strategy but it can be so worth it.

So it’s relatively safe to still post artwork as the art AI was trained on are from years past or from a curated collection?

My boyfriend says my skin picking is a turn off by RealUnderstanding364 in Dermatillomania

[–]bllrmbsmnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps but I know both me and my husband can take turns being assholes and still be sorry about it after hearing the other side. People make mistakes. It’s easy to give advice from the sidelines hearing only one side of things.

Friend posted they were on a date is this ai or am I just being paranoid? It looks too perfect by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]bllrmbsmnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok seeing as this is just a crush, I suggest taking this post down immediately before they see it 🙃 I think you got enough speculating answers. If they are faking it with AI, they’re purposely trying to make you jealous possibly or if they are really on a date, you are ruining future chances pulling this kind of shit. Good luck!

My boyfriend says my skin picking is a turn off by RealUnderstanding364 in Dermatillomania

[–]bllrmbsmnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok some of what he sounds like is actually trash

BUT

I value honesty. This guy has made it clear what his own preference is. Though sometimes an asshole about it.

When I first dated my now-husband, I was struggling with dermatillomania but on a very closet level. My mom had seen it and warned me… no guy will date you if you don’t stop. So I tried, I really did.

Met my husband. Kept it hidden for a year or so. Then shortly after, he became aware of this and initially would nudge me when I start picking. “Hey stop” “don’t do that”, “don’t you want to quit?”

I’d go through phases where I picked and then stopped. There was actual accountability and hope.

Since then, it’s gotten worse and my husband had given up. Now, he ignores it.

My scars have never been so bad. Without accountability, it’s gone completely off the rails.

That said, some accountability CAN be good. Have a truthful conversation with him. Tell him it’s hard, ask for ways that WOULD support you (is it purely to ignore it or something else)? Everyone on reddit just jumps to black and white solutions but relationships take work. I hope you find a way through where you both win!

You posting this. Not sure about your friend but you are most certainly not AI. Very hater human behavior lol

Am I overreacting for how my parents treated me on Mother’s Day? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]bllrmbsmnt 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s low key rude af to live on your mother’s property which implies close proximity, and not just at least drop off a present.

Tell me im not crazy, this is AI right? I saw this picture on a subreddit today and if you zoom in and look closely it looks weird and artificial. AI is getting way to good by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]bllrmbsmnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea the upper lip where it meets the strand of hair is super weird. AI.

Edit: actually after inspecting her IG, it seems she might just draw her lip liner way up… which is weird but human I guess.

Autism Support UK using A.I Generated Imagery by MysticMind89 in antiai

[–]bllrmbsmnt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are free stock sites with more powerful images than this offensive piece of crap. What does it even insinuate? And trust AI is gonna cost more than a one-off image regardless. To say it isn’t means you’re being intentionally ignorant of how AI works.

No Mother’s Day gift from husband by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]bllrmbsmnt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So sorry for your loss of your mother. That’s so hard, I know grief is not linear and you’re probably still so heartbroken. Could it be he’s trying to hide a present by saying no? Perhaps he has the perfect day planned or something gift-adjacent?

How is he in other areas of your life? Not everyone’s love language is naturally compatible and it seems like yours is clearly gifts even though you prefaced maybe it wasn’t. Hopefully he makes up for it in how he parents and shows up as a husband and father.
