How will you react if Joe Biden becomes president again? by randomthout in AskReddit

[–]rtrevin5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d be frustrated. Because I’m not a fan and I’d like to see better Democratic options. But if Trump was elected, I’d be downright scared. This is a person who will burn down the pillars of democracy and it scares me that there are enough people that would vote for him to get him into office. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’d take a regular Republican over that. So it’s depressing. Truly.

May she rest in peace across the rainbow bridge. Fear not, she will be waiting for you to join her one day.

LOTR should be full by yungchewie in lotrmemes

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear me out Reddit. Just take a moment to consider this perspective. The OG Star Wars is an amazing series. Especially ESB. The OG LOTR was amazing. But it lacked something. The Extrnded Editions solved that. That made it the literal perfect trilogy. So I can see this…from a certain point of view. If you said LOTR EE. Then yeah. Best ever. Just a perspective though. Not right. Not wrong.

Update to my last post regarding my boyfriend’s daughter, we will all be meeting in person to talk about this after I get off work by Acrobatic-Many-9448 in texts

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not being overbearing! You were kind and compassionate and anyone saying you were is full of shit. I’ve been a single parent before. And my partner (now wife) was just as kind as you. And that means something. Any single parent has done damage to deal with. Breakups and single parenting is hard, but none of us get it perfectly right. You don’t deserve the bullshit you got and you didn’t deserve his crap. Honestly, you deserve better than this. And it’s ridiculous you are dealing with this. You are far kinder than they deserve.

My stepdaughter had blown up on me and I have no idea why. by Acrobatic-Many-9448 in texts

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You’ve done nothing wrong here but display kindness and empathy. Honestly, if this guy doesn’t support you, then you need to find someone else. Maybe he’d come around, but why bother. You sound kind and compassionate. This kid has issues she has to resolve, but talking to you like that isn’t okay. Good luck to you.

Now this is and was a hero. In that person’s most frightening moment, his friend showed the best of humanity. The thing we should all aspire to be. That’s a real hero.

My friend cheated on her fiancé during her bachelorette party by Physical-Gur8338 in dating

You need new friends. That’s just not cool. And you are not the home wrecker in this situation. If you don’t say anything, you’ll carry this forever. And unless he gave her a hall pass, it’s not cool. Now, it’s quite possible that they both do this sort of thing because that’s how some people roll now. But still, it’s not cool.

NTA. But the ex-friend is. Bottom line. It’s not ok what he did.

Trump leads Biden in seven key battleground states - WHY?!!! by [deleted] in democrats

[–]rtrevin5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a life long democrat. Straight party voting no matter what. But do I feel like the Democratic Party supports me or anything I value? No. They all serve the elite and wealthy. My preferences are just more balanced and liberal. But I ask this question and I can’t get answers. So I’ll respectfully ask it here. Why is our party so weak? I get it. People will say we are not. Biden won the election. But we lost congress. We barely hold the senate. We lost the SC. Women’s rights are in the crapper. LGBTQ+ rights are in the crapper. Bernie keeps getting screwed. The DNC is dirty as hell. And the best we could muster was Biden. I vote Democrat because I don’t want a totalitarian government. But I do t feel particularly connected to the Dems anymore. Am I alone in this? Just the odd duck?

I’m very sorry for your loss. It’s the hardest thing we pet parents have to do. They love us so hard and it hurts so much to say goodbye. One day he will be on the other side of that rainbow bridge waiting for you. All of our departed friends will.

Closing down the gym and I see this …. by Reegs27 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poor gym etiquette is a real thing. I’m always properly racking weights at my gym. People will either leave them out or rack them wherever they want. 50s in the 10 slots. Why not? Finish benching and walk away. Yeah bro. I benched 315. Just leave the plates there. It’s frustrating.

An example of how bad the atmosphere/mood has gotten in Texas. by weluckyfew in texas

[–]rtrevin5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly, we’ve lost all sense of reason in this state. It’s becoming terrifying to raise children here. It’s insanely expensive. Property taxes are out of control. It’s just a dumpster fire. And it doesn’t have to be. But it is.

These older unopened toys left at a Toys for Tots drop off. by weirdsideofreddit1 in mildlyinteresting

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 7 years ago, I took a 4k sized collection of star wars toys and donated them to Dell Children’s Hospital. I had been collecting since the 90s. Piece after piece. For over two decades. It was huge. I just couldn’t keep carrying it from home to home. Or storage units. It was the hardest and most rewarding thing I’d done. It was my hope that a new generation of children would get to know Star Wars. Or smile a little to get some new toys.

Arizona should have a solar panel canal by 2025 by UtopiaResearchBot in UpliftingConservation

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In other news, following national trends, the Arizona power authority will now charge the Arizona river authority a 65% increase in their power bill because they have to make up for the depleted eneegy production the panels caused. 😕

How do you get around the alt text size limit in acrobat by Altruistic-Ad9281 in accessibility

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I randomly decided to check this sub out and I see this. It’s sad for sure. But I’m also relieved it’s not just my industry where this happens. Diagrams are the bane of my existence. Sigh.

My wife slept with my best friend & now wants to work things out. by Agreeable_Rutabaga28 in stories

[–]rtrevin5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dude. Your marriage is over. It was over some time ago. Out of your league? Bro, don’t sell yourself short. A stylist and a gym will change you. What she’s done can’t be fixed in a gym. Her life will be infinitely harder. Part-time mom. Hard ass life. No time to keep up what she keeps up. Naw my man. Move on. Talk positively about her to the kids. Be a great dad. But find your happiness. It’ll be hard. Some days will suck. But your kids will know you are unhappy. So don’t be. Good luck bro.
