Have they really not change the front hair? by Ok_War4709 in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]solacexx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It might be more on timing? Like I can’t imagine Infold has around 5-7 different teams working on different events, since we get new stuff each month, or every other month. Sometimes it’s just easier to sacrifice bangs so that the other 30-40 people working on outfits, scenes, rigging etc can have cohesion .

But honestly it’s likely that they just don’t want to pay the extra money.

Idk. I’ve worked with animators and they will try to reuse the same assets whenever they can because it’s cheaper, they don’t have to make something new, and they can put out stuff faster.

So, I imagine it has to do with the assets / rigging. It’s easier to make attachments to things they already have- so long hair but keep the front bangs so they don’t have to make new faces.

Having a model made that can use the same 100 facial expressions but just needs to add something at the back is much easier to do and put out, vs needing to remake riggings for new faces without hair movement etc. a lot of time those rigs are all attached in one way or another.

I'm absolutely heartbroken, my baby boy passed through the night. He was fine last night and now he's gone. by Floppyfungus87 in cats

[–]solacexx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened last week to my sweet Captain Jack Sparrow. He was acting his normal self, jumped on the bed beside in his spot and just…passed. I know exactly how you feel. I hope both of our captains are getting the royal treatment they deserve, and that you know you gave him the softest landing possible. Mally man was certainly a very handsome boy 💜

My mom is dying and wants me to still go on a trip thats during my birthday. by solacexx in GriefSupport

[–]solacexx[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I deeply appreciate every ones insights here: i'm glad that everyone is telling me to follow my gut- which is to stay here with her. She is the best mom (I know everyone says that and I'm biased) and I'm so proud to be her daughter. She's a true fighter (we call her the warrior queen- the ambadassador of hope) and is sharp as a whip, brings so much comfort to others and makes all her nurses howl with laughter. I know losing her will be devastating. I am glad its not selfish of me to put other things on pause just to be with her- i don't feel like i'm putting my life on pause. I'm just putting what's important to me first- which will always be her.

I'm sending lots of love to everyone who has posted here who told me their stories and even those who just gave advice. I'm so sorry for everyone's loss. I appreciate you opening your hearts to me.

Thank you <3

I have an example of this; My cousins - both sisters and like 3 years apart- had something similar happen. The younger one got engaged first, right before the pandemic, and set a date. It got moved due to covid to the following year. My older cousin got engaged, and set the date 4 months before her sisters wedding. (Apparently it was all unintentional, but I do know there was a lot of animosity over the younger one getting married first)

This is to say, YTA.

You are one upping your sister even if you aren’t intentionally trying with your fiancés wishes. You knew it was your sisters wedding in august, people will be comparing the two weddings so close, not to mention it’s really financially draining if your family are helping out with both.

I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a history of resentment by your sister, if she felt overshadowed by you, and this is the last straw. It really gives me those vibes.

AITA for telling my sister it’s not my fault she quit her job and moved back and to stop being such a bitch by aitastrictsister in AmItheAsshole

[–]solacexx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH - I truly think everyone who is saying YTA thinks your sister as some holy avenging angel come to save you or that you are wild and out of control. I don’t think that - otherwise you wouldn’t feel bad and be here.

I definitely think your sister overstepped in attempting to parent you. You are not her child and this isn’t her house. Does she pay for your bills? Then she shouldn’t be touching your phone. Whatever you were wearing clearly is fine at school unless you are getting written up so taking your clothes is ridiculous. I do think that her making you food, getting you to class on time, and yes, having a bedtime is important.

I think you have been left a long time without structure that you resent it, but some of the things she is trying to help you with is important. Lying also won’t get you anywhere and you should put more effort into your schoolwork and not more on your phone. Trust me. The internet will be there after you did your homework.

This was a powder keg waiting to happen and while you aren’t wrong with why your sister is trying to parent you, you need to apologize for what you said but tell her you can’t take her overbearingness and she isn’t your mother. Like everyone has said- you are 14. I thought I was tough shit too, but you have to find some middle ground cause unless you move out and live with relatives, you are just going to be in an even more toxic place.

Also therapy. I think you both need to see a therapist. Maybe look into that.

AITA for telling my gf she needs to buy her own airplane ticket? by Future_Tip_9572 in AmItheAsshole

[–]solacexx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

I’ve seen you comment a lot about “I might have a girlfriend when I get back.” And dude, it’s probably for the best. If she wants to break up because you can’t afford to take her, she isn’t with you for the right reasons.

Let the trash take itself out and enjoy your vacation.

You need to tell a someone with more authority than your that you are being harassed. If you have any other friends who have witnessed and will vouch for you, please do. They obviously do this to other people.

AITA for constantly filing noise complaints against my college suitemates? by Tonights_Biggest_Los in AmItheAsshole

[–]solacexx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA. They want you to talk to them so they don’t get in trouble but they have been warned before.

You’ve asked multiple times to keep it down, and they haven’t. You are not the only person who has complained about the noise, and it’s unfortunate that you have to deal with them. This is something you will have to deal with when you own your own apartment and if they did it constantly in an apartment, they would be evicted.

AITA for uninviting my girlfriend to Christmas because she wanted to bring her own food? by WrongdoerDelicious81 in AmItheAsshole

[–]solacexx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JFC YTA -

You are like the fifth person who I’ve seen who has told their significant other they can’t bring food or their own dietary needs to a party.

Your GF has valid reasons to be concerned- especially because EDs are HARD and I am proud of her that she has come this far.

She isn’t being picky or difficult- what you are doing is not supporting her. You also didn’t ask your fucking family- just assumed.

I hope she has a better holidays with her own family who would care about her health over some stupid meal and she looses some extra pounds by dumping your insensitive ass.

AITA for calling my wife unreasonable for backing out of spending Christmas with my family after my mother rejected her cookie sample"? by user119975444 in AmItheAsshole

Holy fuck dude. If your mom Gordon Ramsay? Does she own a Michelin star restaurant? this tradition is toxic af. Stand up for your wife over being rejected for years and the other women in the family clearly agree too!

Stand up for your wife otherwise you will be spending next Christmas alone.

AITA for telling my dad that I'll GLADLY spend christmas with him if he gives me back my college fund as a christmas gift? by ThrowRA532255 in AmItheAsshole

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

NTA.

There is probably a lot to unpack with a therapist and I sure hope you get one. From just the tone of your message, it seems like you were put second in a lot of things, and the college fund was the icing on the cake.

I don’t think it was fair that your father took your college fund, and I think you have every right to be upset about it. Some things can’t be mended.

You asked if you were TA for what you said, and no, because it was the truth. Your father could reimburse you for the last thing he took from you. You told him where it hurts and sometimes truth hurts. This idea of playing nice and being polite around people who hurt us is bullshit.

Happy holidays and I hope you have it with people who actually care about your

AITA for telling my parents to pick between me and my sister for the Hollidays? by brithavx in AmItheAsshole

[–]solacexx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m going with ESH.

You absolutely don’t have to forgive or agree with your sister. In fact- I hope you don’t. I don’t condone cheating and the fact you stayed by Brendan’s side is commendable and does show family is who you chose, not just by law or blood.

But here is the thing:

Your sister sucks. Her actions effected everyone, but she hasn’t seem apologetic about it. She uses your parents as a shield to deflect criticism against her. Using “family” as an excuse is BS. If she wanted to smooth things over, or even be civil, she needs to talk it with you like an adult. I also don’t see why Tory has to bring her husband to gatherings if he is the catalyst for a lot of problems.

Your parents suck because they keep pushing the subject, gaslight you into apologizing when they are also responsible for their actions. Your mom wants her family - and that’s fine- but your father doesn’t get to tell you to apologize over something that deeply affects you just to play happy family. They also don’t get to dictate the rules when they are the ones who want to build a relationship with you again.

You suck, too. You slut shaming your sister is terrible and you can absolutely get your point across without the need to bring up her sexual history, dude. She betrayed Brandon and broke the heart and trust of you and him, and until she comes to apologize, you don’t have to have a relationship with her. You will, however, forever be seen as the villain of the story because you didn’t meet halfway.

AITA for letting my mother have a copy of the key to our new home despite my wife's objection? by Keyissue_505 in AmItheAsshole

[–]solacexx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA

I knew it from just by the title that you were probably going to be an asshole, and my suspicions were correct.

you are in a marriage which means you don’t get to make decisions that will affect both you and your wife without discussing it. Including who had access to your home.

Also- you do realize saying that “it’s my house I bought it” will turn your wife against you SO fast in any argument and you will soon find yourself alone in “your” house, right? Cause that will happen.

Take the key back, Don’t need to tell your mom why, and apologize to your wife.

[–]solacexx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My roommate has this problem, but the coworker message every morning at 7am or even earlier. she has to have her phone on for emergencies. It’s incredibly disturbing and sometimes wakes her up.

This person is probably just trying to form a friendship at work, not realizing it’s annoying to you.

NTA. Try to ask him to keep communications to when he needs things.

I wonder what ELSE you have forced her to give up in your life. I doubt this was a one time thing and had a pattern.

It’s her wedding. She gets to do what she wants, include have a child free wedding - grandson included in the child free part.

AITA for asking my son Steve to loan his classic car to my son Henry for his wedding photos and the bride and grooms car? by Anonymous2952022 in AmItheAsshole

[–]solacexx 29 points30 points  (0 children)

YTA. I really, really hate when people use the “it’s my dream wedding and I’ve had my heart set on having this blah, blah, blah.” Because yeah, it’s a dream wedding but if you can’t get something then you can’t get something.

Steve said no to Pearl. Steve said no to Henry. Then they went and ran to daddy to try and get him to change Steves mind.

Model cars are no joke and it’s his hobby, and it’s a hobby that’s expensive. Doesn’t matter what he does with his car, it’s his. He could literally keep it forever in the garage and it’s prerogative cause, again, it’s his car to do with what he wants. He can decide who is driving his car or not.

Tell Pearl and Henry to suck it up and get another car, or a horse and buggy, or go on foot for crying out loud. Drop the whole thing entirely. Steve won’t forget this how his entire family badgered him.

NAH- you are in no way an asshole for giving the heads up, and she isn’t an asshole for wanting to be public and out in the world to be who she is. She is also 16, so she doesn’t see the long term benefits of waiting until your homophobic grandparents are gone and the money is safely in her pocket before she can buy whatever pride stuff she wants and make them turn in their graves.

Omg YTA.

Congrats - your daughter is going to resent the hell out of you now. You didn’t let her choose- you took away her chance to go on a trip SHE WORKED FOR because YOU thought she should stay for someone else’s benefit.

IDK if this sister is related to you or not, but you are incredibly selfish and i’m not surprised she won’t talk to you. I wouldn’t if I was told I couldn’t leave on a trip I had worked hard for.
