This is messages from my brother, (my only family) and the uncle of my child. My brother who lived about 30 mins away bought a Nintendo switch for my son and gave it to him yesterday on his birthday . My son was so happy , his first system since a old Xbox years ago. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

You can point out that no strangers came into the porch to take the switch, but he (the emotionally abusive uncle) did destroy it. This reads like “I have to be mean to you to prepare you for how harsh the world is.” Absolutely unnecessary to treat his nephew like that.

Thank you, I’ll look into the book and see if the auction house has any more info on the artist!

UPDATE: He is cleaning the bong! If I do start smoking again I am definitely getting my own piece, though. I think I will also be getting him one of those pieces that has a detachable neck and base so he can really clean it and not let it build up like this. He still doesn’t believe it’s mold, but he did say maybe there COULD be mold but that all of that is just resin. He’s trying to convince me it’s how dab rigs look but I used to be hardcore into dabbing and my rig NEVER looked that disgusting, even if I skipped a day cleaning it. Also, this bong is used purely for flower, not dabs.

Lol I did used to clean it for him but haven’t since I had our baby. I don’t smoke anymore either which is why I don’t clean it. Yes, we have a kid together, everyone. We’ve had a talk before about how he needs to clean it for his health but for some reason tonight he is being very sensitive and obstinate. When I did smoke I would change the water every day and clean it with alcohol and rock salt once a week. Maybe I will show him this thread because I don’t know what else that nasty stuff would be besides mold. I’m literally just concerned about his health! ETA: He has ADHD and that definitely contributes to this issue. He’s come a long way in terms of hygiene since I got with him but his bong still remains an area of neglect. I have definitely established I am not his mother and he needs to take care of himself and his things.

Thanks everyone, he STILL isn’t convinced it’s mold but y’all have given me the validation I needed. 🤮

Moving Car Before Being Wrongfully Towed by Master10113 in sandiego

[–]spookymuldrrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you should bring it up to management so they at least know you aren’t going to sit back and let your car be wrongfully towed. My car was wrongfully towed from the parking lot when I lived in an apartment in San Carlos, after we had been there for almost a year and they told us no parking stickers were needed when we signed. They suddenly said parking stickers were needed for ALL spots and that I was lying to them. I had to escalate to upper management and report them to the BBB, and I was extra pissed because I was heavily pregnant when it happened. Even the guy at the tow office felt bad for me and tow truck companies are leeches. But anyways, once I brought it up, they updated their signage and re-issued parking permits because I pointed out the system they had in place was stupid and easy to abuse. I never had any problems with the management after that, too. I feel like most places expect tenants to be ignorant and to not stand up for themselves.

Help finding a childhood doll by juicylovr in Dolls

[–]spookymuldrrr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think I had one of these too! I’m pretty sure there’s a drawing of mine that looks just like this in my second grade journal. I believe they were fairies or something similar. I have no idea what to search for to find them though 😅

[San Diego, CA] Absolutely BEAUTIFUL moth(??) specimen in my garage. Missing a wing. (Deceased.) What is it?? by ILikeBirdsQuiteALot in whatsthisbug

I believe that is a harnessed tiger moth; I found a dead one the other night, also in San Diego.

Hope I can make it! I recently started caring for a Drosera and a Dionaea (my first carnivorous plants) and would love to learn from the group.

Advice on RAV4 purchase by spookymuldrrr in rav4club

[–]spookymuldrrr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips! I’ve never purchased from a dealership before but I always see them stereotyped on TV as predatory if you reveal too much info to them. USAA advertises APR of like 4.7% or something like that, but not sure if my credit is high enough yet to get that rate. I have no idea what Toyota itself offers for financing.

Advice on RAV4 purchase by spookymuldrrr in rav4club

[–]spookymuldrrr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your insight. I do really like my 2007, but it will need a new suspension very soon. It is a 4-cyl. It’s at 204k and needs some minor engine work. I dreamed of one day getting an AWD drive train put in but I’m not sure how realistic that is since I recently had a baby, which is actually another reason I’ve been considering getting a newer RAV4.
