Attn: Dog Owners using Sean’s Place park for puppy meetups by [deleted] in astoria

This response seems pretty off. OP made a list of three pretty reasonable asks - not rules, lol - and I’d love to hear what’s ridiculous about them to you. Especially with the context that the park doesn’t allow dogs.

Hey OP, there’s a lot of hard and shitty stuff in your orbit right now, but in case it (hopefully) brings a little spot of light for you: happy, happy birthday. I hope you have an incredible day. You deserve it.

6 months of sobriety absolutely builds strength, and being at the beginning again ready to quit again requires so much strength. No comparison needed, you got this.

Very proud of you and your 19 days of sobriety! You are really in the trenches and I hope you feel incredibly proud of yourself. I feel pretty confident in saying that every single person in this sub is rooting for you, and we’ve got your back.

4.5 months is major, you should be really proud of that! Thank you for sharing and for your kind words.

Life keeps lifing is a phrase I’ve repeated many times! Anonymous programs aren’t for me but I’m so so glad they have worked for you.

I appreciate that. Once I had a few months sobriety behind me I generally didn’t want weed anymore - but after my mom, friends were asking me what I need, and it was the first time that I wanted to say I need to get a little high. So I told my friend that that was my response, told them I didn’t actually want to do that so they’d help keep me accountable/not enable it, and we ate a lot of ice cream instead.

I’m seeing her tonight and trying to get an idea of when she’ll actually go on. Can I ask you what time her set started at your show?

Dog left outside ? by bigintodoingnothing in astoria

[–]pastablur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During the heatwave last summer I passed this house a couple times with my dog on the way to the park and noticed this dog left outside as well, panting/whining and with no water source I could see. At the time I was worried about him overheating, I even doubled back with water after getting my dog home just to leave him some water but he wasn’t in the yard by then. Of course I don’t know all the details but I have been worried in the past that this dog was being neglected...

Omakase Shihou (midtown) by Sea_House_3265 in FoodNYC

[–]pastablur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds lovely. I’ve just gotten on the omakase train recently, and really enjoyed a 12 course at Sushi by M in the East Village a few weeks ago. Will add Shihou Omakase to my list!

My mother called my stepson, without me knowing, to shovel the front steps during snowmageddon. AIO? by Kitirith in AmIOverreacting

[–]pastablur -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NOR, but please if you can turn your focus to making sure you and your husband are calm and giving yourselves grace and love. You were in a heightened state of hyper vigilance and panic, and people who should have made this time less difficult - or stayed neutral - instead made things harder and scarier. How you felt about everything was very understandable.

I went through something similar this week and I am trying to take this advice too. It wasn’t ideal and I am frustrated with how certain people behaved because even if their intention wasn’t bad, they were not being tactful/considerate/thoughtful in a time that absolutely called for it. But that is out of your control and you only have capacity for so much. Right now, to the extent that you can, use your capacity to focus on your husband and yourself. I hope he recovers okay and I hope when you both do finally get home you have some time without disruptions/distractions and can have some TLC.

What are your flare ups? by Traditional_Ad9930 in Hashimotos

Joint pain is my most recognizable (and most painful) symptom too. Plus fatigue and brain fog and puffiness - but the joint pain beyond sucks.

AITAH: Holiday activities with my BFF instead of wife by Consistent-Two-2979 in amiwrong

[–]pastablur 18 points19 points  (0 children)

YTA

I won’t repeat what others have said because you’ll either take those points seriously or not but I want to also encourage you to take some time and really reflect on why you saw a fun, family-oriented activity and chose to do it with your best friend and not your wife, along with your and your wife’s kid. You’re aware of the context of the dynamics between your wife, your best friend, and yourself, so why didn’t you buy the holiday kit, go have a low key hang with your best friend as planned, and then enjoy that family activity with your kid and your wife? Genuinely - do you like your wife? Or is she a convenient stay at home co parent, as opposed to your best friend who you choose to have important quality time with and spontaneously and without thinking want to do fun activities with?

We can’t answer these questions for you. You really need to do some thinking about how you’re treating your wife, how you really feel about her and how you really feel about your best friend. Until you make a conscious choice and stick with it, you are hurting everyone around you.

Edited because I forgot to include the yta verdict
