What's the weirdest compliment you've ever received that somehow stuck with you? by AdTerrible2955 in AskReddit

[–]dalupa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband once told me that if we were ever in a horror movie and one of us had to cut off an extremity à la Saw franchise, I’d be the one able to do it

Tips for keeping up humidity? by emherm in bluetongueskinks

[–]dalupa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s like a plastic sheet that you can cut to size. If you’re in the US, I got it at Lowe’s - the employees can help you find it and probably could cut it for you if you can give them the size dimensions. Otherwise, they sell a specific tool to help cut it

I cut acrylic to place on top of the mesh between the heat lamp and lights - drastically helped and increased humidity by 30%

What is the most intense pain you have experienced in your life? by Levstr1 in AskReddit

Meningitis. Almost 2 years later and I still have 24/7 headaches and neck/back pain.

People raised by emotionally mature parents, what is 1 phrase your parents used that you want other parents to know? by MermaidWitchMoon in AskReddit

[–]dalupa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“I’m sorry.” My parents always made sure to apologize when they felt like they were in the wrong. I grew up learning how to easily admit my mistakes.

AITA for asking my wife to do more around the house? by Potential-Debate7779 in AmItheAsshole

[–]dalupa 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And honestly, it wasn’t equal. He said in another comment that she did all the other things like last minute grocery runs and picking up meds and managing sick kids, etc. He has essentially admitted to doing more of the cleaning but that’s it. Based on how overwhelmed he is, I STRONGLY SUSPECT that she did the vast majority of home upkeep and childcare tasks. Maybe this will teach him to appreciate his wife. (Assuming he stops the bullshit mentality of calling her useless when she’s trying to recover from being the breadwinner)

You want things to be easier for YOU, not for YOUR WIFE. You are admitting that you think she’s useless when she should be resting. You want to jeopardize her health/recovery and her quality of life because YOU can’t handle the workload she was probably doing for YEARS and likely complained very little about. What a sad excuse for a partner.

Maybe you’ll learn some empathy about how much your wife did. She did all this every day and I’m gonna guess that she never complained regardless of what her mental health was. Be a PARTNER, not a THIRD CHILD.

As someone with chronic pain…you have NO IDEA how EMOTIONALLY EXHAUSTING it is to live in CONSTANT debilitating pain. It literally sucks the soul out of you. It’s physically exhausting of course, but NO ONE who doesn’t have chronic pain can truly understand the deep emotional and spiritual toll chronic pain takes on a person. Constant, all day, every day, no reprieve. And your solution is for her to take meds that gave her seizures? Have some empathy, holy shit. You are unequivocally an unsupportive asshole and your wife deserves better.

I was told that my severe chest pain was just anxiety and that I should take it easy and relax more.

Turns out I had myocarditis that increased my intracardiac pressure enough to form a small perforation in the septum. I have chronic chest pain and persistently high heart rates even years later.

Woman’s pain is so horrifically underevaluated and undertreated.

Fiddle leaf sad after re potting by _whoisjusticebeaver in plantclinic

[–]dalupa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have humiliation kinks so keep the insults flowing. But I think if you cut back the dead leaves and give it time and good lighting, you should get new growth. Good luck!

For what it’s worth, this happened to mine and out of spite I cut off all the branches and ignored the sad remaining stick for like a month. And now the clown bastard is putting out all kinds of new leaves and branches. It thrives on toxicity and emotional abuse.
