2024.06.01 14:13 OkCryptographer2822 Women of Reddit, I need some advice.
A while back, I had posted this AITA post on this site (copy-pasted here)
"10 years ago, my wife [42f] and I [39m] adopted a boy who is now 16m. He is our only child, and he used to be such a sweet kid up until last year. This was when he first started acting out. He has a seriously disturbing infatuation with his mother, and he used to act out on it with just a lot of staring and ogling. This year was the first time he did anything beyond that. My wife has let me know that he pulls at her bra every now and then, and she now refuses to be in the same room as our son without me present as well. We have installed locks on our bedroom doors and our closet door, so that when my wife is changing, she can lock herself in the closet. I keep an eye out on our son constantly, and it's been a while since he has acted out physically on my wife.
One week ago, my wife and I sat down with our son, and we started talking about his troubling, problematic behavior around her. During this moment, my wife started crying, and she pulled her shirt up to wipe her tears away. We saw our son staring at my wife’s body during this time, and it freaked her out enough that she started addressing him directly, asking him what the fuck all this is. She asked him upfront whether or not he wants to rape her, and she used the word “rape” explicitly. When she asked him this disturbing question, I shut her down. Our son was dead silent for the entire meeting.
It’s been a week since my wife and I talked to our son, and it’s all the usual routine still: my wife needs me to be with her whenever she’s with our son, we keep the bedroom door locked whenever we’re there, and I’ve been giving my wife the silent treatment for asking our son if he wants to rape her. Actually, because of what she said, I once couldn’t bring myself to protect her when she was around our son, and I just left her alone with him.
IMPORTANT EDIT: I mis-spoke when I wrote the title. After some reflection, I've realized that I'm not actually disgusted by my wife. Rather, I'm disgusted by the circumstances that have led to my wife confronting our son. Also, after the one moment where I left my son and wife out of my sight, I later reconciled with her and asked her if anything went wrong while she and our son were together. She said "no". Just saying all this, for what it's worth."
Ever since I posted this thread, my wife has moved out of the house temporarily, so it's just me and my son. We are looking at all possible options. My question, as disturbing as it is, is: if you knew your son views you sexually, and he gets better eventually and becomes remorseful, what will it take to rebuild a normal relationship with him?

2024.06.01 14:13 artmalique Copper Penny = House of the Dragon's Ros?
One of the things that fans have been talking about from the House of the Dragon trailer is the curious woman by the equally curious name "Copper Penny". It could be that she was included in the trailer for no other reason than it being a great shot of her partially obscured face... but I don't think so! I am sure there must be something significant planned for her character.
Maybe she will make a one-time impactful appearance - though according to the internet she also appeared in HotD season one, episode four "King of the Narrow Sea" (I could not spot her at all?) - or maybe she will become a recurring character?
From the trailer, my guess is that she is a brothel worker trying to seduce someone. This - together with the fact that the trailer clearly intended to draw attention to her - makes me think that House of the Dragon may be planning to turn her into their own version of Game of Thrones' Ros!
Ros was a character created for the TV show who grew in popularity and began "climbing the ladder" (until she reached too far and angered Littlefinger who gave her to Joffrey and his crossbow). Perhaps HotD will position Copper Penny as a minor character who tries to ascend the social ladder...

2024.06.01 14:13 melirritos How do you cope with seeing them everyday? How do you cope with being the rebound?
I started something with my best friend three months post breakup for him. I knew he wasn't ready but it started as a FWB arrangement and didn't have feelings for him at the time and wasn't exactly looking for anything serious. Things got messy and we both developed feelings almost instantly (and truth be told, it seemed that he had feelings for me way before anything happened between us). I knew he was still pining over his ex though (and understanbly so), still in contact with her. After all, they were together for 6 years. I decided to end things after two months, telling him that I wanted us to date and I wanted something more. He said he had feelings too but didn't feel ready. And that's also understandable. I knew that even if we started dating there's a very real chance I would be dumped the minute his ex begged him to be taken back. Our breakup was super amicable. I told him that I'm not going to wait around but if he ever feels ready and I'm still single, I'm open to reconnection.
In the beginning, I did everything right. No contact, didn't beg, nothing. Even when he showed interest a month afterwards, I knew it was just a plea for attention and that I'd still be there so I shot him down, even though we kissed, talked and hugged all night, I didn't pursue anything and went no contact until the beginning of April. The thing is, in the meantime, I saw him every fucking day. We do the same sport and he's pretty much unavoidable. I'm there every day and so is he. During January, February and March I really grew a lot, made a new friend group, removed toxic people from my life, made more money, moved out, restarted my studies, dated a bit and was doing great. Didn't care as much about him or getting him back. Again, he tried a few times to seek attention and validation from me but I gave him nothing. He saw me everyday too and he was really bitter that I have seemed to have moved on and didn't pay him much attention.
Fast forward to beginning of April, since I knew he was battling some serious issues and depression and I started getting really worried about him, I thought long and hard about reaching out to see if he's doing okay. I did after a week of thinking of how this might affect me. Eventually I sent out a message. He responded and said that he wasn't doing that great and he was really moved by my genuine care and interest. Boy was I right on the money about this setting me back. A few weeks later he started trying to catch my attention again and warming up to me, making eye contact, growing closer and getting excited to see me and silly me got excited that something may happen and that he was ready to move on from his ex and give this a shot. And that's when I got needy and made every mistake in the book. When he showed intrrest, I was needy it was clear I enjoyed this a bit too much. I reached out. We started walking home together talking. I tried to bait him into saying how he feels and whether he's ready. He flirted with me incessantly too, wouldn't stop hugging me goodbye like multiple times. I said I miss our friendship he said I miss you too and I told him that I was baiting him to see if he still had feelings and eventually he admitted that he does still have feelings and misses me but nothing has changed for him, in terms of wanting to commit.
The greatest mistake of it all is that the next week I told him exactly what mehaving feelings for him meant, how I saw a future, how I felt myself with him, how I've grown etc etc and asked him what he wanted. He evaded every single one of my questions. He told me he's not interested in dating around he's still getting over his ex. He'd rather focus on himself, getting better and his studies and that he does care about me more than he would for a friend. The thing is, I know he's hooking up with someone new now, this has been going on for like a month now and I feel lied to, at fault was doing too much too soon and pushing him away when he was warming up to me and worst of all, seeing him everyday gives me a panic attack. I took a break for two weeks from our sport and messaged him saying exactly that that seeing him for me is tough and walking home with him is the worst, that I don't want to be friendly or stay friends (he wanted to stay friends) and that he should leave me alone instead and he obliged.

- How do I cope with the fact that I was the rebound?
- is this new girl another rebound or the real thing? I know he has finally accepted that his ex is gone and doesn't want her back and I know that he has committed to this new girl. That fucking sucks. How do I not blame myself for pushing him away and essentially pushing him into this new girl's arms?
- How do I cope with seeing him every goddamn day?
- I honestly thought I meant much more to him, we were friends for quite some time and had a beautiful bond, how could he have discarded me so easily? Three weeks ago we talked on the phone for hours, him telling me how he isn't ready, opened up to each other and told each other I love you. What the fuck? How could he have moved on and committed to someone else this fast when he wouldn't commit to me? That's the part that hurt me the most.
- How do I reconcile the fact that I very much don't like who he is as a person right now and the fact that he has broken my trust, devolved into someone immature, unavailable, I genuinely and a proper fuckboy, constantly chasing validation and a honeymoon phase?
- How do I stop blaming myself for not handling things as well after April and being needy and pushing him away and essentially sending him off to another girl's arms? I did everything right at first.
2024.06.01 14:12 ExperienceNeat6037 Ran into my covert narc ex for the first time post discard, hoping I did the right thing
For context, I broke things off 18 months ago. We started talking as friends, about a year ago he said he wasn't interested in pursuing anything romantic, so I went no contact. I ignored the subsequent Hoover. I unblocked him briefly because I was ready to move on. a month later I called him out on some passive aggressive behavior and told him to basically leave me alone because I was not ready to engage. I also told him I did not want to be his friend. A month after that, he called me some nasty names to mutual friend, that's when I figured out he was a covert narc. We haven't had a conversation in person in almost a year.
Last night I ran into him at a bar where several mutual friends and I were enjoying some live music. At one point, somebody reached from behind, touch me on the shoulder, and said hello and my name. I couldn't physically turn around to see what it was so I was asked out loud, and he replied with his last name. I said nothing, just turned my head to the front and kept enjoying the music. This happened right next to his best friend, his best friend's wife, and two of my closest friends. One of those acknowledged that he saw the whole thing and it was very clear that I shut him down. He ended up sitting right behind me next to his best friend for the next hour, and he got to watch the back of my head having a great time with my friends, getting flirted with, and just being happy. It felt really good to just ignore him and send a message that he is insignificant.
There's a good chance he's mad, but he was already mad anyway from the narc injury seven months ago, lol. He hasn't tried to smear me because he can't, my reputation is golden in our social circle. I just don't understand why he would approach me considering I have him blocked absolutely everywhere and very clearly told him to basically leave me alone. He must've known I would reject him, can't possibly believe he can squeeze any more supply out of me, unless he was just fishing for some sort of emotional response that might embarrass me in front of our friends. If anything, he ended up looking like the weirdo for trying to talk to a woman who clearly wasn't interested in talking to him. Maybe now he'll finally leave me alone, lol. 🤷🏻♀️

2024.06.01 14:12 deadboyinthepooI my imaginary friend is going THROUGH IT
i have 4 kids in my save right now and i absolutely hated dealing with the first child's imaginary friend so when my second child aged up into a child i decided to kill his imaginary friend. turns out, that didn't do shit. HE APPEARS AS A GHOST NOW.. and now you can't even interact with him. i have the nraas error mod and i just opened up the save and whenever the game is unpaused i get tons of notifications saying the imaginary friend is having a script error. literally. i just rebooted the save so hopefully it's gone now, but i don't want to totally annihilate the friend because that just feels mean. but i cant deal with the imaginary friends feature anymore, they might be the most annoying things ive ever seen.

2024.06.01 14:12 Sad-Yam-9361 About to be OTHd.
Terrified
I had a rough first deployment.
When I got back, I had an affair, during which I lied to the woman about personal details when I feared she was becoming dangerously obsessed with me. To be clear, I only ever had the affair because I felt a connection with this person that I did not feel with anyone when I got back from Afghanistan. I did not lie about being married; she knew.
Regardless, I was wrong, I was young, and I am sorry.
When it ended, they falsely accused me of SA.
I spent 30 months fighting. I passed a polygraph; I gave an interview; I testified. All they did was call me a liar.
During the investigation it came out i was a victim of male-on-male SA. I did not bring this up, and it was only used against me.
CID then called my wife and told her.
I began to have heart palpitations, and my chain of command went and told CID about them. CID pulled my entire medical history to say I was lying.
The system is broken.
One month before my trial, a new lawyer joined the prosecution. I was immediately offered a deal. Dismiss the SA charges with prejudice. No confinement, no punitive discharge, no fine. I plead to conduct unbecoming and extramarital. I like to think I owned my mistakes.
I had 35 character witnesses. I had a LCSW and a clinical psychologist supporting that my CPTSD was a factor in my misconduct.
I was sentenced to a reprimand and my chain of command didn't support an adsep.
Regardless, I was put up for one. I chose to resign in lieu of further elimination proceedings. It was on advice from my lawyer, but truthfully I was just too tired.
I'm going to receive an OTH. I'm scared. I just want to provide for my wife; she deserves so much better.
Is there any hope this gets upgraded? Where do I even begin?
I need help.

2024.06.01 14:12 prismabird Roadside anti-apologetics pamphlets - good idea or not?
Just finishing up a road trip which took place in the south, so of course I ran across a few of those little evangelistic booklets designed to look like dollar bills or passports the Christians leave in rest stops. It made me think, well why not co-op the idea?
Instead of ”Passport for Heaven,” it could say, “Passport for Freedom,” or something similar. it could list anti-apologetic reasons to yourself from God and Christianity. Things like the argument from responsibility (if God is all powerful, why are we responsible for finding him? If he is the father, why are so many of his children bound for hell and what does that say about the kind of father he is?), arguement from lack of instruction. rom lack of instruction (why is the Bible a fragmented, archaic, cryptic book of poetry and metaphor when it’s literally supposed to be the instruction manual for our life and salvation? Is this the best way that God could figure out to communicate with his children, who have been mostly illiterate through history?) and so forth. else think this is a good idea? If so, what should be in it?
Maybe also resources for ex Christians, queer people coming out of religion, etc.
Does anyone else think this is a good idea? If so, what should be in it?

2024.06.01 14:11 boys3allc School Board Member Yelled at me.
Hi! I’m a TA currently and I’m working on getting my degree in special education. However something that happened recently is making me question that plan. As the title states a school board member yelled at me. He was at the school early in the morning. He was in the hallway in an intense discussion with another teacher. I have to go up and down the hallway several times to collect my students from outside. So I had passed him twice once to get to my room, and once to go get a student. On my third pass I was talking to my lead in the hallway about something one of the students did saying it was cute. The man then turned to me and said very sternly “You will say excuse me the next time you pass me!” I looked at him confused because I thought he was joking as I hadn’t bumped into him, and I hadn’t wanted to interrupt his conversation. He then said rudely “I AM school board chairman redacted and you WILL say excuse me next time.” I was hurt and embarrassed but I continued doing my job and had to pass him several more times saying excuse me. He then said “You don’t have to be rude about it, like whatever.” At the fourth excuse me. Now I am autistic and sometimes struggle with social interactions. So I’m unsure if I did do something wrong? Is what he did normal behavior? Because the whole thing has left a bad taste in my mouth and has me questioning if I should continue on this career path.

2024.06.01 14:11 -Coffeeman- My girlfriend [20F] has stopped feeling any kind of love to me [20M]. Should I break up or should I wait for her love to come back?
Sorry, this is going to be a long one and I bet some of you will say "this is typical inexperienced young people relationships stuff, I've seen millions of these before". But this situation is making me live the worst days of my life.
Before reading this, some information about our relationship. Honesty is key, and we never lie to each other. No matter how much it hurts we always tell the truth. And I trust that she doesn't lie, she doesn't do some kind of evil plans behind my back. She acts how she feels. Now to the main part.
I've been in a relationship with my girlfriend for 4,5 months. This is how it started. We fell in love We are going to the same university. What we had was beautiful. We went out on dates and we enjoyed each others company. One month later, (December 2023) she started to act strange. One day she was loving and caring and interested in talking to me, another day she just wasnt there. She never texted me, replied very shortly and late. This damaged me a lot because unlike her, I loved her so much. She would actively avoid me sometimes. In the same month, for a few days things were going great, and on one day, me being a bit drunk, I confessed. She didnt know what to say. She said she needed time. We talked about this situation, she said it was something about her parents and her sense of love being corrupt. She said she couldn't feel love. She asked for time, I provided her that. Her therapy seemed to help and then the genuine, stable romance started in January 2024. We were now a proper couple. We loved each other so much. We were truly happy. There were small times where her cold, unloving side showed up, but just for a few days and I supported her and it went away.
In May 2024, something horrible has happened. She went cold. And this one is going on for about 3 weeks now. She is still cold. She doesn't love me, doesn't care about me. She told me it started after her therapist started talking about her relationship with her father. After that, she couldn't feel a connection to anyone, me included. I tell her how much she hurts me but she says she genuinely doesn't understand how she hurts me. I tell her how the way she doesn't care hurts me so much. I tell her how I am so sad that I feel paralyzed. I tell her I still love her. She says she feels like it will pass. But there is no progress and every day I wait for her love to come back, I die inside some more.
A few days ago we met in person. I told her the situation I am in. I told her how sad I am. She suggested to take a break from the relationship for my own sake. She told me she really didn't want to take a break but if it made me feel better to forget about her, she said it was an option. I told her that the last weeks have been the worst weeks of my life, and the situation between us isn't really improving. So I told her a break could be worth a try. We talked for hours that day. I told her that I want to make this relationship work, but she hurts me so much that I am starting to question if I should wait for her love to come back or break up. Upon hearing this, she started crying. She said she didn't know why she was crying. I hugged her. And then she wanted to kiss me one last time before the break. We did. The break only lasted 2 days because I changed my mind. I thought it was not right to cut the communication when the relationship was already not good.
Now the present moment. She is still the same. We agreed to meet up today, to talk about things, the reason why she went cold, and stuff. But her university students club (something about medical research and social activities) had a meeting today, she just learned this information and she said we could meet up tomorrow. I told her is this how little you care about me? Even in the situation I am in could you not make time for me? She told me she was neglecting the club for so long and it would make her sad if she misses this. I am starting to hate her. I don't know what to do. Even in this situation she chose something else instead of me. Even though she knows how hurt I am. So should I leave her, or wait for her?
TLDR; My girlfriend stopped feeling any kind of love towards me, doesn't care about me and this hurts me immensely. Should I give up on the relationship or should I wait until her love comes back?

Before reading this, some information about our relationship. Honesty is key, and we never lie to each other. No matter how much it hurts we always tell the truth. And I trust that she doesn't lie, she doesn't do some kind of evil plans behind my back. She acts how she feels. Now to the main part.
I've been in a relationship with my girlfriend for 4,5 months. This is how it started. We fell in love We are going to the same university. What we had was beautiful. We went out on dates and we enjoyed each others company. One month later, (December 2023) she started to act strange. One day she was loving and caring and interested in talking to me, another day she just wasnt there. She never texted me, replied very shortly and late. This damaged me a lot because unlike her, I loved her so much. She would actively avoid me sometimes. In the same month, for a few days things were going great, and on one day, me being a bit drunk, I confessed. She didnt know what to say. She said she needed time. We talked about this situation, she said it was something about her parents and her sense of love being corrupt. She said she couldn't feel love. She asked for time, I provided her that. Her therapy seemed to help and then the genuine, stable romance started in January 2024. We were now a proper couple. We loved each other so much. We were truly happy. There were small times where her cold, unloving side showed up, but just for a few days and I supported her and it went away.
In May 2024, something horrible has happened. She went cold. And this one is going on for about 3 weeks now. She is still cold. She doesn't love me, doesn't care about me. She told me it started after her therapist started talking about her relationship with her father. After that, she couldn't feel a connection to anyone, me included. I tell her how much she hurts me but she says she genuinely doesn't understand how she hurts me. I tell her how the way she doesn't care hurts me so much. I tell her how I am so sad that I feel paralyzed. I tell her I still love her. She says she feels like it will pass.

2024.06.01 14:11 Dangerout Project X Reborn - A Review.
 | I got really bored, so now I'm reviewing revivals. This is the first review I'm doing. submitted by Dangerout to oldrobloxrevivals [link] [comments] I'll only look at revivals that have piqued my interest in one way or another. And I'm quite picky when it comes to revivals, so don't expect another review from me for a while. Also, this is a long one. If you want my final thoughts, just scroll down to the Final verdict. You'll see it. I'm looking at Project X Reborn, as I've heard people say good things about it. Also plenty of bad, but from what I can tell, that's just pointless drama brought on by two ex-staff. I don't care about that, what matters is what I can actually tell about the revival itself. Future me talking: I had no idea what I was getting into here. I regret EVERYTHING. I'll be judging revivals on three factors: The client(s), the website and the community. Client(s):After checking everything else out about this revival, I've decided to not even bother messing with their clients. Wasn't planning to skip this part, but after I show you everything else, you'll see why I did.Website:This is not a very good website. A lot of stuff on here is just nonfunctional. I'm almost convinced that it's using shoddily put-together code from another revival. And considering this is an ECS-based revival... yeah, makes sense.Genre search on the Catalog just doesn't work at all. I AM CRAPPING MY PANTS AS WE SPEAK. Literally everything on the bottom of the site leads to a 404. Nobody can help you now. The "Upgrade Now" button leads you to a completely different part of the website, specifically the part that only shows up when you're logged out. Bootleg 2016 website... Suddenly it's different? Oh yeah, the site looks totally different when logged out for some reason. It's like you're transported to a completely different site. In terms of positives... it loads fast? I'm not giving any points for looking like the old website, as it's mimicking an era of Roblox where the site looked pretty bad. But that's just my opinion, others will probably feel differently about it, I dunno. I could ignore these flaws if the community could pick up the slack. But about that... Community:From what I've seen in the very brief time I spent in their server, this community is RIDICULOUSLY UNHINGED. Forget Project X, they should've named this revival Aphrodisiac.Some of the images I've seen in this server I'm scared to send here as I think it could risk me getting banned from the sub. I could mark this post as NSFW, but I think just posting a few examples should get my point across all the same. how is this funny i genuinely worry for this person's wellbeing this message got pinned. bruh. the fact that most of these were from a small timespan yesterday goodness Seriously keep in mind that this isn't even the worst of it that I'm aware of. Heck, as I was writing this, there were people posting worse than this. Here's what one of the staffs "friends" had to say to that: The message I replied to was deleted. I guarantee that if I didn't mention it, it would've gone unmoderated. And vein deleted their message as shika threatened to remove their friend role. I can't stress this enough, good revivals have stuff like strict moderation and zero tolerance for degenerate behavior for a reason. These are places typically populated by people under the age of 18. And when the line between memes and actual degeneracy begins to get gray in communities like this, it only leads to bad things happening. These are not servers for "The Boys™" to hang out and post things unfiltered, they're Roblox revivals. In any other revival I've been in, most of what I've seen on this server would get you permabanned. Here however, your messages get put on the starboard and even pinned. I can not find any justifications for this. When even the owner constantly complains about the degeneracy surrounding their community, all I must ask is this: Why not actually do something about it? GEE, I WONDER. This was pinned in #english-chat. Seriously, when THIS needs to be clarified, that's when you know SOMETHING is wrong. After just looking around, I can say that I am not surprised that rumors are going out against shika. Not because they actually did anything (I don't think they did), but because of what's been allowed to exist under their ownership. Something really needs to change here before things get bad. Final verdict: I can not recommend this revival whatsoever.I was going into this expecting the community to be bad, that's par for the course with these sorts of revivals. But this was a whole other level of terrible that I just refuse to give it any sort of chance. Shame, I wanted a nice 2016 revival to make stupid games on. Hard ask, apparently.I know that I didn't put much time into investigating this revival, but from all I've seen, I really don't want to. I could've just come in at a wrong time. Definitely possible, considering a lot of the screenshots I've shown were from such a small timeframe. But first impressions mean a lot, and the impression that I got was that this revival's favorite color is off-white. Don't get things twisted - I do not want this to be a hate post or witch hunt or whatever. I truly believe that it's not too late to change things here. Syntax was in a similar position once, but it managed to improve significantly in its later months. It's not too late for Project X to do the same. I don't think it is, anyway. That's all I've got for now. I may come back in like a month or so to see if things have changed or not. If it stays up that long, that is. You never know about revivals anymore. Anyways I hope the next revival I decide to write about is passable enough for me to actually want to download the client. Thank you all for coming to my TED talk. |

2024.06.01 14:10 CautiousXperimentor Need of detailed instructions?
One of the things that I think I’ve read about ASD (or maybe also ADHD?) is the need of detailed instructions. And this has happened to me all my life, impacting my tasks at university and potentially to my future jobs.
I’m gonna quickly explain what I’m talking about. Let’s say we’re on the chemistry lab (it’s just an example, not my field) and the teacher instructs us to make this reaction with this and that to achieve that product. The problem, is that the procedure can be done in several ways, and I paralyze and feel the need to ask the teacher about the details: Should we grab the reagents in pellets or powder? Should we mix it at certain temperature? For how long? We can pass that solution to another recipient? Which one? Should we add the reagents in certain order? If we obtain the product, should we put it somewhere before it’s too late?
Maybe those questions don’t have sense for you, and maybe those aren’t relevant. I’ve already said that’s not my field but just from what I remember from High School. Doesn’t matter, it’s just an example.
Usually, the teacher, or the boss/manager, will tell you what to do, but not exactly how they want you to do it. And NTs kinda assume the way it must be done, usually they get how the teacher wants it to be done even if teacheboss/manager didn’t provide those details; and sometimes they will do it wrong, but they don’t care.
As a result, during the practical classes on college, I usually find myself waiting -paralyzed by so many doubts about the details- until the teacher is free and I can personally ask all of those details, that I either don’t remember, or wasn’t provided with. As a result, I’m usually seen as the insecure student that asks a lot of questions and is always the last one to finish.
I’m worried, because in college, most teachers assume you’re there to learn -although they end up viewing you as the slow one-. However, workplaces aren’t as forgiving, I’m afraid, because they are paying you to efficiently do the job… and usually they assume you know the details, or you will figure them out. If you ask, and ask, and ask again about those details, they aren’t going to hire you after your trial period. And what if you don’t ask, and do something in a way that impacts/delays/damages the product or any of the workflow, or even your coworkers? That would imply the same firing PLUS feeling bad for myself, for the -probably insignificant- harm done, the boss or manager’s reprimand, and impacting my self esteem.
So, I guess it’s better to ask, even if they see you as the one who constantly asks irrelevant questions and is slower? Or should I just try to assume that if certain step was important, the manager should have told me exactly how to do it, and not assume I know? Because if it’s the latter, the blame is on the (bad) manager. But the one being fired is me so…
TL;DR: I have trouble with non-detailed instructions, where the teacheboss/manager assumes you will know how to handle them. If you ask too much, it’s a bad image, but if you don’t and do something wrong in the process, it’s even worse. 1) Do you struggle with non-detailed procedures? How does it impact you? 2) Do you think it’s because ASD or ADHD? And 3) How do you deal with it?

2024.06.01 14:10 tangerineSylv Does anyone work in jobs where they have to handle meat? How do you do it ?!
Basically I’m a student, looking for a part time job over summer. my friend is a waitress at a cafe & said she can get me a job there as one of the girls is leaving.
I asked her if any of the work involves making food and handling meat and she said yes, so specifically it would be making ham/chicken sandwiches 🤢
I feel sick because I think the last time I touched meat was in 2015… genuinely I can’t imagine having to hold it and slice it…
This job looks overall really good and fun, the pay is good it’s close to my house and I really want to work with my friend, just the meat part scares me a lot :( So I’m wondering if anybody works in jobs that requires them to handle meat, is it okay and is it something I could get used to ?
If I get an interview is it worth saying I’m vegan & that is the only thing I’m uncomfortable with or would that ruin the chances of me getting the job. Any advice is appreciated thank u!

2024.06.01 14:10 Due_Distribution6201 Keep Tommy, fire wings
The only people saying good things about wings are people who know nothing about him and are being manipulated by his lax attitude and lies of past events when he is on the podcast.
And the people who know what he’s really liked aren’t entertained by him because he only shows his true lolcow self on his own stream.
As a result he is so boring to have on the show it’s insane. We would rather have blade, ltg, RTU, Phil, anyone but this snooze fest blob

2024.06.01 14:10 ThrowRA_72636482918 My (20F) boyfriend (20M) does not care about fashion and his appearance. What do I do?
My boyfriend (20M) and I (20F) have been dating for almost a year, and he is the sweetest, smartest, funniest and most handsome person I know. However, the one thing he’s not the greatest at is fashion.
His outfits primarily consist of sweatpants (basketball shorts if it’s hot out), hoodies, and old t-shirts. He sleeps, goes to class, works out, and goes out with our friends all in the same outfit. He refuses to wear jeans because he says they’re uncomfortable, and does not own a collard shirt. I am pretty into fashion, and tried to let it go at first because it felt superficial; however, it started to bother me a few months ago, when he wore a neon hoodie and ratty grey sweatpants to meet my parents for the first time.
I have tried subtly suggesting small changes (I.e. saying things like “you would look so good in this”), but that gets brushed off almost immediately each time. I even went as far as to get him a nice pair of sneakers for his birthday, yet he still ops for his dirty old gym shoes half the time.
I understand prioritizing being comfortable when going to class or the gym. However, what bothers me is when I look at pictures of us on nice dates or out with friends, I have clearly put effort into my appearance, while he has on the same thing as always. Am I being too superficial? And how do I get him to make a change with his fashion?

2024.06.01 14:10 tvkyle My wife is planning something for me for Father's Day, and I don't know how to feel about it.
Not quite sure how to flair this. Also for context, I am very bad at accepting praise and gifts.
My wife is up to something for Father's Day. I just don't know what it is. We were talking about activities for the kids this summer. I mentioned that I think we should go to this place or that place around mid-June. She nodded in an over-the-top way and said "You should really plan those for the couple of days after Father's Day. Like, REALLY plan them."
I originally requested off from work both days of the weekend, but had to give them back after realizing that I went overboard with my PTO requests and had none left in the bank. I'd rather save them for the Holiday season. So, I have to work on Sunday, basically all day.
Back around Mother's Day, I tried to book a hotel so my wife and I could have a couple of days of peace and quiet, but our live-in babysitter (MIL) got called into work and that squashed that. (My wife also doesn't like going places on her own, so I couldn't just send her to a hotel alone and say "Go relax." Yes, I know...) So we just stayed home and lounged around for the day.
Part of me wants to say "Thank you for whatever you're planning, but it's not necessary. I don't deserve this." Which is true: I yell way too much, I'm too selfish, I don't do enough around the house, and I'm always forgetting things and letting my family down. I don't feel like I've earned any kind of getaway or whatever. I also felt this way for my birthday, when my wife booked a 2-night getaway for our family. That trip turned out okay, but I was unhappy for parts of it for the reasons above.
The other part of me is saying "Just accept this and have fun." But that's hard for me. We didn't have a lot of money growing up, so our vacations were short road trips. My mother always did her best to have fun, but we stayed in a lot of rough motels. Now that I'm the adult, and my family is in a better financial situation, we have done trips that I never dreamed of. So I know my wife will think of something fabulous.
But... I don't know. I guess I just needed to put this in writing. If you feel like I wasted your time, I'm sorry.

2024.06.01 14:10 glowing_sunsets_ siwet vs digivijay
Am i the only one who doesn't like both of them?? like when you go on insta it's mostly divided into siwet vs digvijay even their comment section are like "siwet digivijay ka baap" or "digivijay siwet ka baap" as if both of them aren't equally worse
siwet is such a major red flag plus he doesn't know how to treat girls , anyone who has been watching him since roadies know it and then he is just all words no performance . Also he is so good at manipulation.
digvijay is one irritating person and a hypocrite bro says log toh meri baaton se hiljaate hai after interfering into someone else's matter but when someone gives him the taste of his own medicine he goes like "tujhe bheech mai bolna jaruri hai" plus he gives typical aunty vibes and is a jealous person too. Only good thing is that he is a decent performer.

2024.06.01 14:10 artmalique Copper Penny = House of the Dragon's Ros?
One of the things that fans have been talking about from the trailer is the curious woman by the equally curious name "Copper Penny". It could be that she was included in the trailer for no other reason than it being a great shot of her partially obscured face... but I don't think so! I am sure there must be something significant planned for her character.
Maybe she will make a one-time impactful appearance - though according to the internet she also appeared in season one, episode four "King of the Narrow Sea" (I could not spot her at all?) - or maybe she will become a recurring character?
From the trailer, my guess is that she is a brothel worker trying to seduce someone. This - together with the fact that the trailer clearly intended to draw attention to her - makes me think that House of the Dragon may be planning to turn her into their own version of Game of Thrones' Ros!
Ros was a character created for the TV show who grew in popularity and began "climbing the ladder" (until she reached too far and angered Littlefinger who gave her to Joffrey and his crossbow). Perhaps HotD will position Copper Penny as a minor character who tries to ascend the social ladder...

Maybe she will make a one-time impactful appearance - though according to the internet she also appeared in season one, episode four "King of the Narrow Sea" (I could not spot her at all?) - or maybe she will become a recurring character?
From the trailer, my guess is that she is a brothel worker trying to seduce someone. This - together with the fact that the trailer clearly intended to draw attention to her - makes me think that House of the Dragon may be planning to turn her into their own version of Game of Thrones' Ros!
Ros was a character created for the TV show who grew in popularity and began "climbing the ladder" (until she reached too far and angered Littlefinger who gave her to Joffrey and his crossbow). Perhaps HotD will position Copper Penny as a minor character who tries to ascend the social ladder...

2024.06.01 14:10 paraque159 “Britney Spears: The Pain of Misogyny, Not Mental Illness”
This is a real title. Also, this was your fault!
Please don’t give clicks, unless troll! https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mad-woman-out-of-the-attic/202311/britney-spears-the-pain-of-misogyny-not-mental-illness?amp
100% sure you know what it says. Any mistake Britney Spears made was because men made her that way. She is a victim of entirely man-made mental illness (suddenly mental illness isn’t real)(also pays for her mansion).
I won’t debate the woman. This idea is absurd. Her conservatorship was obviously exploitative but portrayed to be nothing more than a man trying to exploit a woman. Rather than “person likes money and is bad person.” Nothing beyond man v. woman. The talking heads say “this is a great example of how pervasive misogyny is…” All nonsense.

AI, what a wonderful invention, you can chat with it, play with it, get information out of it and copy their works to do homeworks- wait that doesn't sound right. When I was a kid at primary school, I wasn't good at English, but after about 12 yes old, I begin to develop writing strategies from reading books, especially fiction with action in them, I also like adding blood gore in them sometimes (proud to say I learn how to write animals dying from WC satire) so when the 2nd term writing was about cats and with action, I was pretty thrilled and over the clouds when it was announced. I prepared for it A LOT, like thinking of the plot and even write a draft of the action scenes. And the day comes where we started writing, the teacher gave us permission to use iPad and said for "research" and "learning" and trust us to not do anything else. I actually sympathise the teacher as after that my classmates used some AI to do their work. I don't have perfect grammar, my grammar test IS the one that pull my marks down. And your telling me that people just copy and paste and I have to be extra careful? And the app is self installed by the iPad itself. Good thing? I wrote 900 words (the word count is 250 above, most people wrote 4-500) and given the honour of having my teacher re-read the writing. Bad thing? I nearly have a mental breakdown because of the story while my classmates were laughing. And I don't even know my marks yet, it's either lower or higher than them, and I damp want to drag them from hell to back. So I'm just telling y'all, good luck out there and hope you don't rely on AI too much as most AI generated things are copied from other people.

2024.06.01 14:09 purplekamu community in chinese valorant
I recently stayed in china for 2 months for a holiday and my god the community is so different. Im not sure if it was me being in lower elo lobbies but everyone is so much nicer, I wish I could say that NA and OCE were as nice but everyone in those regions seems to have a stick up their ass shooting our sexist and racist remarks . Chinese Val is much louder lol, I feel northern china servers can play without voice coms at all but southern china, especially in cantonese speaking areas, they have no concept of push to talk which made the game suprisingly a whole lot more fun. Nobody is sexist or racist in chinese lobbies which is kind of surprising when all you know is men screaming sexual remarks at you, Im also unsure if Chinese Valorant has a different penalty system but for the two negative encounters I had whilst playing, as soon as the match ended, they would get penalized instantly which is very unlike regular Valorant where horrible people get off scott free. I really wish the regular Val community would be more welcoming and kind to people who arent men or masculine, I loved Chinese Valorant for that reason, they were so sweet and humorous 😣✊️

2024.06.01 14:08 petribxtch Graduation
If everything had gone as planned, I would’ve walked at graduation yesterday. Instead, at the end of 2022, during the first half of my junior year, which was going great, a guy got back in touch with me. my rapist. he went to my school, but i never had to see him. suddenly he was everywhere, and i didn’t understand that what he’d done was rape yet. he didn’t hold me at gunpoint, he didn’t threaten to kill me, and i was 14 when it happened. I didn’t understand yet. I tried to be friends with him, again, but I couldn’t see past what he’d done to me, and i talked to my mom. she suggested we talk to my guidance counselor about keeping him away from me. my guidance counselor said the most awful thing to me. “Are you sure you want to ruin his senior year?” He followed it up by saying big rocks and little rock’s float different, focus on the big rocks, as if being forced and gagged by my so-called friend wasn’t a “big rock”. I knew then that I couldn’t stay at that school. My mom pulled me out, and I fell into a really deep depression. My credits didn’t transfer, so if i’d moved schools, I would’ve had to repeat my sophomore year, too, and i couldn’t bring myself to do it. it was humiliating. my “friends” and classmates walked at graduation yesterday, and i’m reminded of everything my rapists stole from me. he stole my body, he stole my mind, he stole my options, and worst, he stole my education. i regret not forcing myself to go back somewhere else everyday but it’s too late now. i have to live with it.
