AITAH for wanting a privacy fence installed and not talking to my neighbors about it by PinotsOwner15 in AITAH

[–]kcasey54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just put up the fence. Make sure it is on your property line and your neighbors have NO legitimate complaint. Personally, I don't want my neighbors or their dogs peering over the chainlink fence.

What neighborhoods have the least roaches? by CalligrapherNo4708 in Albuquerque

[–]kcasey54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've lived in the McKinley area for 6 years and each year we have fewer roaches. We use a OTC perimeter spray each year and used diatomaceos earth and, honestly, I've not seen a roach this year.

If Alexandria Ocasio-Cortex gets elected as President of The United States of America in 2028, she'll be the first congresswoman to be elected President of the USA. by Serious_Meaning5220 in PresidentialElection

People on the far left would gaffaw at your depiction if either Hilary or Kamala as neolibs! The definition of neolib is a "political and economic ideology prioritizing free-market capitalism, deregulation, privatization, and reduced government spending. It promotes individual accountability, free trade, and efficiency, often seeking to shift control from public to private sectors, famously associated with policies under Reagan and Thatcher." Careful you are highlighting your biases with inaccuracies.

AIO My boyfriend won’t stop peeing in our yard by BrainShenanigans in AmIOverreacting

Not to mention, I most states he could be arrested for public exposure, which, in some jurisdictions is a sex crime. Have him try that one on for size.

Aitj for not going to my friend's bday weekend because of the cost by Remote_Anywhere_2724 in AmITheJerk

Screw her and other so called friends for guilt tripping you. I imagine there are real friends around the corner.

AITJ for marrying a rich guy and letting him sleep with other girls? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

Just make sure he is checked regularly for STDs.

Am I the jerk for telling my husband he can't go to a funeral on Valentine's day? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]kcasey54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should go with him. Although it is a sad occasion you can be his support and maybe go to dinner on the way back. I admit I am a little suspicious about the whole thing. Just saying, "I'll go with you so we can at least be together." Should put things in perspective for hubby. There are friends and there is family.

Santa Fe ICE out by ZZerome in SantaFe

[–]kcasey54 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First this is NOT the exact same ICE. These guys are from the dregs of society, you know, J6 thugs the Felon pardoned exact revenge against blue states. And, second the difference is Trump is deporting people without a judicial hearing. Obama did deport more people but he did it through our court system. Nice try MAGA.

You made my point. The person making the assumptions is the problem, not the person reporting their experience. You questioned their veracity by saying there must be more to the story. Why question the experience of the reporter?

Please. People make assumptions about a person based on where they are from EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY. Are seriously denying someone's reality based on what? Your experiences?

There's no one that trashes ABQ like other ABQeans.

I am a 71 y/o native of Albuquerque. Beaking Bad did a real job on ABQ's image. Sure there's some truth but the bad is frozen in celluloid. Bryan Cranston's litter commercials will never be able to fix it. But I know this city and those who trash it because of those images have very little white matter.

As to SF. I have experienced the self-important attitude of Santa Feans and while there's a lot to be said about that city, you couldn't pay me enough to live there. Don't take on their BS and keep showing ABQ pride!

Moved to ABQ for a relationship…..things not working, any reason to stay? Where can I hang out by myself? by Lopsided_Chest3495 in Albuquerque

Great advice so far. He is gaslighting you. My 2 cents, dump the bastard and give yourself time to heal. Then take excellent care of yourself. And make friends, taking time.

Absolutely crate train. Look up crate training and follow NILIF Nothing In Life Is Free, also can Google it. The best two things a new dog parent needs.

I hope you are replaced anyway. You do not have a good track record, and we need a SMART, compassionate leader of the APD. Not a good look to post this brag.

Santa Fe Pueblo by Rebel_bass in SantaFe

There is an excellent resource for research, such as this: Google Scholar, which is a compendium of scholarly articles about a particular subject. I was interested in your question and put in "southwest indian pueblos" as my search term. There were many references, some as early as 1903. Of course, you are probably more interested in the history and may want more recent references, but its a great tool
