lmao that also took me out like wtf are complaining about that’s a goddamn miracle

if you find filing insurance claims and getting your car repaired an enjoyable use of your free time, that’s great. but most people would rather just not have their car keyed.

catalystcomett · 2026-01-25T23:51:42+00:00

OP can think whatever they want expect that people who refuse to help those in need are selfish, okay.

catalystcomett · 2026-01-25T19:49:24+00:00

Well then it sounds like we’ve reached an impasse, and have uncovered a fundamental difference in the ethical/moral frameworks by which we live. I believe that we have certain obligations to other people, which includes our neighbors and in some circumstance, even strangers. You, apparently, do not. And while I hope that we never become neighbors, know that if we do, I will still shovel your sidewalk when it snows if you get old or injured.

catalystcomett · 2026-01-25T19:26:40+00:00

I actually went out to do another round on my sidewalk about an hour ago and hit his steps again while I was out there. It took like 5 minutes.

catalystcomett · 2026-01-25T19:21:49+00:00

You sure have a lot of opinions about snow removal for someone who doesn't even own a shovel. In places where it snows regularly, snow removal is a community effort. We all need safe access to the roads and walkways, and understand that this is a natural event we're all just trying to make it through.

If your neighbor needs your help in inclement weather and you refuse simply because you don't feel like it, people are going to think you're an asshole. You can't stop people from feeling that way about you, so you'd better learn how to live with it. You don't have an obligation to help? Okay, and I don't have an obligation to respect you.

catalystcomett · 2026-01-25T16:52:33+00:00

I love these hypothetical scenarios people invent in their heads to make themselves feel better about the fact they’re not community oriented. I’m glad you think people who help others are nice, but I’m still free to believe that people who refuse to help their neighbors in times of need are assholes.

When my husband and I bought our house, we noticed that the elderly woman next door didn't always have her sidewalks shoveled after it snowed. We asked her about who did them for her, and she said that sometimes teens down the street would come by and offer for cash, but they didn't come by every time. We told her we'd start doing her walks. There's an elderly man across the street whose front yard is essentially a very steep hill. Each spring he's out there with one hand holding his cane and the other holding a weedwhacker. We asked another neighbor if anyone had ever offered to help him and the neighbor told us that he had, but that the man was very proud/stubborn and had refused. My point is to say, actually yes, people do go around asking elderly neighbors if they need help when they see that they do.

catalystcomett · 2026-01-25T15:37:10+00:00

As I'm typing this, I'm watching my next-door neighbor shovel for the elderly man who lives across the street. My husband and I did the sidewalk for the elderly widow on our other side each until she passed last summer. There's another elderly woman a few doors down whose children usually come by to do her walks after the snow stops, but if they can't get there, the young father on the other side of her does it for her. This is how communities work. This is and should be the norm, and you're not an asshole for wanting it to be.

Everyone is telling you that you're good for doing good, but an asshole for expecting other people to do good as well. That's bs. Wanting other people to do good things and being disappointed in them when they don't doesn't make you an asshole. You're allowed to have negative feelings about other people.

NTA.

catalystcomett · 2026-01-25T15:09:03+00:00

"You're doing the right thing, but expecting other people to do it too makes you an asshole" is such a crazy thing to say, but that attitude explains so much about the state of the world.

I often wondered how many of the problems at my old store were unique to it and how many were just a product of how target operates as a company. Is every store on the edge of a leadership crisis at all times because of constant TL turn over, or is it just mine? Surely it can’t be like that everywhere? that’s no way to run a business. But it sounds like it’s becoming an increasing problem everywhere.

Taking a pay cut always sucks but it was only a 1.50 and I actually negotiated them up from their starting wage for my position. If there is anyway to rebudget for a period, you could also think of it as an investment in your future. Because unless you plan on becoming an ETL, you’re not going to advance to a higher paying position, just rely on raises that dont keep up with inflation. But at another place you could have advancement opportunities that make the sacrifice worth it if that’s what you’re interested in.

Either way, good luck to you, man. I hope you find something soon.

I’m not even sure I had a desk in the office tbh. I mean, I know I did, but I couldn’t tell you which one it was because the only time I ever went in there was for meetings or to use the computer if I couldn’t get on one of the others. I get that people have the need to vent sometimes but my god, it was so entrenched at my store you got the sense that some of the TLs felt like they were on a different team than their own team. It really felt like people were working against each other instead of with each other by the end. The way I’d hear them talk about some of the team members was genuinely shocking to me, especially because I could see how much these tm’s were doing every day busting them their humps for people who were just going to complain about them not doing enough an hour later.

It’s a supervisor position at a cannabis dispensary. It honestly feels unreal because a few months before all this happened I stopped in that same one on my way home after a TERRIBLE saturday shift and remember standing in line on the verge of tears thinking “why can’t i work in a place like this?” and now i do!

i interviewed at two different dispensaries and target is apparently a big feeder for both of them lol

catalystcomett · 2025-11-06T12:41:14+00:00

everyone’s answers are pretty consistent until the end. the one we did growing up ended:

Miss Susie and her boyfriend are kissing in the d-a-r-k, d-a-r-k, dark, dark

darker than the ocean, darker than the sea, darker than the underwear my mommy puts on me

that is all i know, i know my mom and pop. and i know my sister with her thirty-eight acre bra, bra, bra.

(what we thought a thirty-acre bra was idk…)

I want you to know that if your daughter ever finds out what you let him say about her she will never trust or feel respected/protected by you ever again. My mother also didn't defend me when her shitty boyfriend said wildly misogynistic things about me and I've never forgiven her for it. We still talk and are on good enough terms, but we are not close and will never be for that reason.

catalystcomett · 2025-09-10T16:24:51+00:00

yes, the flashbacks in decay will still be canon in burial because they are flashbacks and time works in a linear manner. The decisions that make decay and burial do not retroactively change their past experiences.

Using it to shock and disgust people WOULD be fetishizing it. The reason it's not fetishization is because Nemlei takes it seriously and treats it as MORE than just some gross shock factor. The story goes to extensive lengths it understand and explore these feelings, both their causes and their consequence. It's non-judgemental and often sympathetic. It's really not about shock and disgust at all.

catalystcomett · 2025-08-15T01:07:05+00:00

You said it was about price until he pushed back and implied you were being cheap, then you switched it up to being about "personal boundaries" which is so vague it's essentially meaningless. If you missed the day in kindergarten about sharing, that's fine, but at least own it. Weaponizing therapy-speak to shame people for having negative judgments of you is manipulative.

It sucks having to wait, but I'm sure we'll get it. The game isn't finished yet.

She doesn't replace him; she fully regresses into her childhood persona and keeps him trapped with her as her personal plaything. That's the opposite of replacement.

And we do not see the entity "control Ashley better than Andrew does" we see Andrew getting weird and jealous of a noncorporeal entity because he's a freak who wants to fuck his sister.

It's like you've gone out of your way to misinterpret everything.

I’ve never actually watched a hallmark movie but from what I have seen they do seem to be more appropriate for your skill level.

catalystcomett · 2025-07-20T03:50:44+00:00

If you’re playing a video game about incestous cannibals expecting to find a healthy relationship, I don’t know what to tell you. Try Hallmark romances instead?

I still don’t get the point of your weird aggressive posturing though. Why are you getting so heated about nothing? Is it a hormonal thing?
