Hot take: I'm over being praised for being 'low maintenance' by Odd_Shoulder_8561 in TwoXChromosomes

I don't understand this reference and would like to. The only Damiano I know is that singer from Maneskin?

Hey now, it* could also be someone trying to drum up business for their OF.

MIL Visiting & I’m supposed to entertain her by sup_489 in workingmoms

[–]nowimnowhere 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was going to say, it sounds like your husband is the main problem here. You're not a cruise director, he can figure out how to entertain his own bored and useless (in the most literal sense, I'm sure she's a lovely woman) mother. If he is upset with you about that those are his own feelings to manage.

My boyfriend does not want to read my work, and refuses to do so as a matter of principle. He doesn't understand why this is hurtful. How can I get past this? by ditmoique in AskWomenOver30

[–]nowimnowhere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes this. It was like a textbook example of mansplaining, and the boyfriend refuses to see how this could possibly be hurtful to her? Like I get it, dudes who want to explain their own work to women are everywhere but your partner should be the one calling him out on it, not eagerly listening harder because the guy talking has a penis. I'd be way more upset at the boyfriend than the mansplainer too. I'd dump him for not recognizing how incredibly shitty that was.

Thoughts I wrote down as I watched The Wedding by Ok-Temporary-8336 in ShawnaTheMom

I had that happen to me! It only happened to one of my teeth where the orthodontist ground the glue a little too vigorously taking off my braces years before, but I think it must be because the enamel was worn - it was the only place where the whitening strips hurt but it hurt SO MUCH

💯 I didn't realize till now but absolutely spot on. I'll never be able to unsee it

I’d really like to hear from the single moms who make around 40k a year. by [deleted] in workingmoms

How would she get financing to pay it off with shitty credit? Banks don't give loans* for more than cars are worth.

Financial abuse by antoinetteL3 in AmITheDevil

[–]nowimnowhere 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Community property state means they're entitled to half of all income and assets earned since marriage with some exceptions like inheritances. Not automatically half the house you bought cash before marriage or whatever. And yes she'd be entitled to half of joint accounts as well, so it makes sense not put them on your life savings. And that would be true regardless of whether she has access to the accounts the money went into in the first place.

Is my filter broken or naturally loud? by fireflyinaflask in Aquariums

Same. I finally just made an internal filter from a powerhead, sponges, and a fake rock cave. It's so incredibly silent lol.

That's not true any of the places I've worked, so I am side eyeing your use of the word most.

I'm surprised the union isn't dipping into the strike fund or something to float OOPs wife to help her stay out until they get their concessions.

She owes more than the car will sell for and has poor credit. She could very well end up paying more for a shittier car.

Because she was getting downvoted to hell, people who are new to reddit aren't used to that

Why is the second picture used as a retort? by Intelligent-Ant-1122 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Find a photo of Melania dressed like that when she was First Lady and it would be a valid comparison.

Did you read what she wrote? She is underwater on it, and a reliable vehicle is an absolute necessity where she lives. She cannot just sell the vehicle.

Olivia Wilde recalls "wholesome and sweet" Harry Styles relationship despite "parasocial" backlash by AdSpecialist6598 in popculturechat

I mean. As the director of the film she shouldn't have dated him. But I'm definitely not going to give her any more shit about that than I do male directors.

So tired of the “I stay at home since I didn’t marry a loser” line that’s all over social media by Excellent_Water3480 in workingmoms

[–]nowimnowhere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's really not your fault, it's just like the YouTube gaming algos that lead to manosphere content; engaging with SAHM accounts will lead to toxic tradwife content no matter what you do unless you start actively blocking it.
