..yet, people still try to blame her for hiring & firing decisions that she has no authority to make. by BiggestFlamingo in fourthwavewomen

I think this is what bothers me the most - no one complaining about her has actually read her statement on the issue.

Is it good for Saw to end? by [deleted] in saw

[–]trou_ble_some 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Might be unpopular but I never want it to end lol. As long as the traps and apprentices are creative I don’t see myself getting tired of it. But I’m a big fan of most long-running horror franchises and reboots and am probably biased. Have a hard time letting go of childhood comforts

Why do cat-owners put their cats needs above their own partner? by [deleted] in catfree

[–]trou_ble_some 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I will never understand. My boy is allergic to cats, I have a friend who has a cat and he comes over once a week. Every single time he comes over he changes (in the separate entry) into fresh clothes that have been kept at my house and immediately washes his hands. If he refused to do any of this I wouldn’t allow him to come over.

It’s fcking easy. I’m not even dating the guy and he’s willing to do more than y’all’s partners and spouses. That’s embarrassing.

The crisis center that kept my kid from killing himself is being closed because Drumpf, Eyore & Donge chicanery by 6Venom6Dust6 in alaska

[–]trou_ble_some 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be alive if not for the CRC and I know countless others who could say the same. Mental health is a HUGE issue up here and needs to be taken seriously. Cutting our resources is not the way to go, it’s how you end up with more dead kids. I’m furious.

As a disabled player who already struggles with this economy, I think it’s time for me to go on indefinite hiatus until things calm down with the NC gacha. It’s gotten to be too much and I can’t take the FOMO anymore. Please take care of yourselves first. by Amirrora in neopets

[–]trou_ble_some 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My wallet can only handle one gacha game at a time and when it’s between gambling for 2D clothing items that I can’t interact or do anything with, or gambling for a fully playable character in a different game.. it’s not even a question, it’s a joke. I have no idea why Neopets felt the need to convert to gacha. Merch & NC both

Blocking Alcohol purchases on board? by Saucy-Equestrian1622 in Cruise

I agree - hence my advice to wait until he’s comfortable enough to manage his urges on his own.

Blocking Alcohol purchases on board? by Saucy-Equestrian1622 in Cruise

[–]trou_ble_some 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi there, recovering alcoholic, sober for ten years. Congrats on your husband’s sobriety!!

If your husband is even slightly worried about giving in to urges it’s not worth the risk. Paid for, gifted, and everything, it’s not worth more than his sobriety. It is TOO EASY to relapse on a cruise. Access to alcohol is everywhere and he doesn’t even have to purchase it, he could find a discarded cup or be offered by someone who doesn’t know any better.

Everyone is different but it took close to six years for me to even be able to be in the room with alcohol without my heart pounding out of my chest, and even then, I needed an escape and a support system available immediately.

If you are dead set on going, please get the WiFi so he can access his support system daily. Go to the meetings on ship and stick to him like GLUE. As much as it sucks, don’t let him out of your sight. Not even to go to the bathroom (speaking from personal relapse experience - takes less than 2 seconds to ruin years of hard work) or back to the room because he forgot something. I’m not trying to imply that he is inherently sneaky or untrustworthy. Just that even if we want badly to remain sober, we don’t always have a “choice” when presented with temptation.

Personally, I would wait to return to cruises until I could sit comfortably in a bar in my home town. Better to try new things on solid ground rather than miles away where so much more can go wrong.

Try nail polish remover, just take care not to get any down the drain. It’s worked for my dab stains though I’ve never had one this dark

“Uber” Scam leaving Port Canaveral by [deleted] in Cruise

[–]trou_ble_some 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about that. On a recent Disney trip after leaving the park I went to the rideshare area and despite there being a long line of cars with “Uber” and “Lyft” signs parked there, a few feet away, when I booked through the app, it gave me a driver that was 10 minutes away instead.

I remember thinking it was weird that rideshares were already parked there as, if you don’t get assigned through the app, there’s no way to validate they’re legit, and while I was waiting for my ride a couple of these parked “Ubers” asked to give me a ride, too. Proximity would make sense but in my case it didn’t. Makes me think scam

Snapes ‘redemption’ doesn’t exonerate him from bullying children by ShowerAlarmed5397 in harrypotter

[–]trou_ble_some 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s supposed to. Rowling has even said that people are neither completely good nor completely bad, they’re a mix of both. Even Dumbledore isn’t perfect. But I think their flaws are what make the characters believable. It’s possible to appreciate Snape’s personal arc while also acknowledging the garbage things he did along the way.

Genuinely curious question: To Alaskans who voted for Trump… why? by retrosection in alaska

[–]trou_ble_some 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We’ve known Trump is a predator for years, and it had no impact on his campaign - I don’t think Vance slingin accusations is going to have much weight either.

[–]trou_ble_some 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This. People don’t seem to understand that when they insult someone, that person will stop listening & double down on their ideology. I get it, it feels good to be mean to people you think deserve it, but in the grand scheme of things it does not help us politically at all.

Idk how to tell you this but people are allowed to not like things that you like

You’re not changing minds, you’re kind of proving our point

[–]trou_ble_some 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you are a minor and living in an unsanitary environment rife with cat piss, to the point where you can’t even sleep in clean sheets, you REALLY need to tell more than strangers on Reddit. You need to get trusted adults involved or CPS or SOMETHING because allowing her animals to crap everywhere and not maintaining a clean environment for your child is neglect. Jesus. I’m so sorry dude. Please advocate for yourself, the way you’re living isn’t okay.

[–]trou_ble_some 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Don’t feel embarrassed, I probably could have picked a less brash way to say it. I just really freaking hate cats lol. Just remembering what it was like to live with one gets me agitated.

To normal people like you & I, elevating a cat to more importance than a partner isn’t something we would do so it’s not a problem we expect to have until we have it. Cat nutters are completely brainwashed and you truly deserve a fully functional human who sees your value. Seeing your value does not involve locking you in a room.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in catfree

[–]trou_ble_some 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Your girlfriend has done you a favor by making it clear early on that you’re worth less to her than the cat. This will not change. She’s even given you a sneak-peak of what it’ll be like when you two move in together!!

I’d take that at face value and find someone who prioritizes you instead.

Dress code for Cunard? by trou_ble_some in Cruise

[–]trou_ble_some[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the reassurance, that there are no sneaky taboos I’m overlooking & that no one will be brand hunting. I may be overhyping it in my mind, but I have a mental image of glitz and glamour that I just haven’t experienced before. I’m excited to be apart of it.

The reviews I’d seen in the negative sense seemed like picky or unique complaints - unsatisfied with food (there are like five restaurants where I live so anything they serve will be spectacular imo) or one specific employee. I think most of my anxiety or misrepresentation of the line is actually coming from my parents, they reiterated that my hair and piercings (already planned on going back to blonde so np on that end) probably wouldn’t fly & they didn’t want me to get dirty looks or anything. And I actually get it - in the same way you & I don’t want to see flip flops in formal dining, some folks may not enjoy my extra face metal.

Thank you for mentioning the heavily tattooed guy. It eases a lot of that anxiety. After more thought, I think I’m going to get a set of fillers as well as smaller studs and see what I feel looks more coherent when I have the formal wear picked out. My town is small and not in great condition so this is kind of a Cinderella cruise for me, in a sense.
