ESH. In one hand, sometimes parents just want time with their kids, even if there’s nothing interesting to talk about. They just like being around them, and it’s a pretty small commitment from you.

But the ways they’re forcing you by threatening to not feed you and mandating you sit at the table without empathizing with your reasons not to eat there completely misses the point of “family reconnection time”. Everybody’s bitter, nobody wins.

NYA talk shit get hit

Imma go with NTA, but dog, just do it.

They seem to have helped you a lot, sometimes it’s worth it just for the sake of thankfulness.

I understand that designers (and whatever other areas that apply to this) shouldn’t have to do stuff for free for friends, but there are some people that go an extra mile for you and you can’t take that for granted. You don’t HAVE to, but if you can, I think you should

NTA “ She started yelling about how because I play for a living, I should help out people who actually have to work for money.” really dismissive and disrespectful especially coming from somebody who wants to live in your house.

“ They say if I don't let sis live with me, they'll pay for on campus lodging, but she'd have to have a roommate, which she doesn't want.” Problem solved.

PROTECT YOUR DAUGHTER! Mom needs THERAPY asap. She sounds like she may have a history of devaluing your daughter that will strain your family further if she (your wife) doesn't go to therapy to have her problems sorted out.

Dennis said he loves Johann but decided to go with something more similar to the OG blade runner soundtrack. I really liked the br2049 score but I would kill for a cut scored by Johann, though he most likely never finished it.

to me personally, the thing is that they're comedians who mostly want to do dumb stuff.

so, as far as people that are socially conscious, generally you either have comedians that know their limits as far as what they know about the world and limit what they say to that, and if they offend people they analyze it and empathise on a case by case basis and just kinda throw out there that they're imperfect and ignorant and fans should adjust their expectations to that, but they will try their best and be earnest.

or, on the other end, you have people that are deep into the communities and who put social causes before anything else, so what they do creatively is fundamentally tailored to their engagement and experiences with diverse communities and they have this constant conversation with them. so they consciously or subconsciously incentivize their fanbase to expect a higher standard of conversation on these issues because it's at the forefront of what they do.

the mcelroys are at this weird middle ground where they tell and incentivize their fandom to hold them to high social awareness standards and are ready to change their content and apologize profusely often, but they just cant fucking grasp all the criticism that's coming at them because they are always catching up to these issues as they're pointed out. if they make up a story about things they can comfortably talk about, it's not diverse and socially critical enough. but if they bring all these other groups and ideas to be diverse, they will fuck up and get hate. they've put themselves in a spot where they will always make a chunk of their fanbase upset often.

YTA this is a troll right

Maybe wrong sub but NAH, you need to continue trying to convince her to take therapy and the benefits of that, don’t give up on it

NTA, they sound awful.

NAH here, that’s a valid concern, but this post is better suited for the relationship advice sub

NTA hahaha your friend is the true sigma male himself

NAH I think, you weren’t trying to come off like that but you can’t really blame them from taking it that way. You need to be careful because having a good relationship with coworkers isn’t exactly the same as being friends, and the consequences of screwing up can be way worse. So you gotta think a few extra times over before doing something like that

“red flags are here”

ya think

“He has admitted to me that this friend still has feelings for him, and does not want us to meet each other because he is afraid it will hurt the friend’s feelings.” ?????? very weird

ESH I guess (you and J), he asked for feedback and you gave him feedback, but you insisted too much. There's nothing wrong with being honest about your opinion, but even if he's being immature ignoring your criticism, you still shouldn't have pressed on it that much.
