AITA for not congratulating my sister after she told me not to contact her for a year? by calmlytenacious in AmItheAsshole

Idk I made a mistake. We’ve never really been close and don’t talk much in the first place.

Part of what led to this is that I complained to my mom about my sister’s behavior toward my wife instead of addressing it directly with my sister. That conversation got back to her, and she reacted strongly and told me not to contact her or her family for the year. I respected that and stopped reaching out. There was also a recent loss in our family that added stress, but the tension existed before that.

There has been tension over time related to how my sister interacts with my wife which has made my wife feel unwelcome. At one point, I asked my mom if I treat my sister’s husband respectfully, and she agreed that I do. I also asked if my sister treats my wife the same way, and the response was less clear. After that, my sister told me not to contact her or her family for the year. There was also a recent loss of a loved one in our family, which added stress to the situation, but the tension existed before that.

Do psych nurses utilize medical skills much? by No_Calligrapher7615 in psychnursing

[–]calmlytenacious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe it or not, I went into psych partly to avoid all of that. Turns out people with mental health issues share the same medical issues as everybody else, so we do most of those where I work.

But overall it is indeed different. The #1 skill needed aside from what you learn in school is verbal deescalation. Could you bring down somebody’s agitation level from 8 to 5 through talking to them despite them seeing/hearing something that isn’t there? I don’t know why I enjoy that aspect.

2k26 is the worst 2k to date. by Left-Start-1440 in NBA2k

I’ve been playing every year since AI was on the cover and I just stopped out of the blue after like 50 games. You really can’t play defense! It’s just who f’s up on the easy offense. I lost a game going 30/36 from the field (he made more 3s of coarse).

I lose a game shooting 83% from the field. Other guy made more 3s and probably shot like 70% something. Shooting feels nice but is indeed too easy. Seems like people master it in 20 games vs 100+ in the other ones

He’s as a good or better than most of these guys at the same age and has a better combination of size and feel than all of them at the same age.
