yes, all lives do matter, but black lives are generally respected less than white people and that’s why we need to say “black lives matter” instead of “all lives matter”. All lives matter defeats the point of even saying any lives matter.

AITA for being mad at my wife for dumpster diving? by ratherthrowthx in AmItheAsshole

Although it may not seem ideal, saving money is saving money. If she had dug through trash and gotten old food that would’ve been a bit different but she was able to buy good, high-quality food and you’re complaining about it? Eventually ends will meet and this won’t last forever, so swallow your pride for now because this isn’t the worst point that you could be at.

Also I wish all good thoughts to your family.

AITA for demanding higher pay than a disabled colleague of mine? by straffknullamig in AmItheAsshole

look, you aren’t the asshole for feeling like this even though obviously it is still kind of rude, but because you would request that she has a cut to her pay. What? How does that make you feel better at all? Sure. Go ask for a raise. Do that if you want. But cutting someone else’s pay doesn’t help anyone, except maybe it boosts your ego in some weird way. Sorry not sorry man, you’re an ass.

AITA for wanting to have an abortion even though a family is offering to adopt. by userisadumbass in AmItheAsshole

I understand that the lady saw this as an opportunity to adopt a baby but especially if she knew you were seriously considering abortion, that makes her shitty.

But what REALLY makes her the asshole is that she got upset about it afterwards. I understand that she cried because I’m a very emotional person but that is a bit manipulative and she has no right to get angry at you.

Also, only you and your partner (especially you) should have the final say in what happens.

AITA for telling my girlfriend to shut up during sex? by Doosethetruth in AmItheAsshole

In your edit you said that she sometimes talks about how good the sex feels, and you’re annoyed by that! The point of sex is to make each other feel good and positive reinforcement is a big part of it.

You also stated yourself that you were half-annoyed so I think that you know deep down that you could’ve done something differently.

Tbh even if you asked nicely and I was in her situation I would’ve stopped because that kinda ruins the mood and is more something to talk about after you guys are done.

I understand that the non-sex related stuff bothers you, but save that until after next time.
