Felicitaciones España. No podemos seguir bancando esto, ni cerca del arco

I'm fully NC with my mom, and my dad decided to stand by her so I'm also NC with him, though I was open to a relationship if he could take some accountability for the extreme abuse he allowed, or at the barest of minimums acknowledged it.

Anyways, lately I find myself having very catty inner thoughts whenever I see a sweet familial bond in action. I've never said it out loud, not even to my husband, but I'm constantly so bitterly jealous, it's almost starting to have a measurable effect on my quality of life.

I'll see one of those cute viral videos where the parent is waiting for an acceptance letter with their kid, or jumping and crying when they meet again for a long time, and the only thought that comes to mind is "I wish I had parents", dripping with jealousy and poison. Just last week we went out to eat with a friend and his mom, and she told us the story about how she left her husband, grabbed her purse and her kid in the span of 5 minutes in the middle of the night because he shook my friend by the collar once. Meanwhile my dad watched my mom lift me by the larynx and smash my head against the wall until I was too heavy to pick up and never said anything, not once. The day I ran away I was 24, working part time, trying to save money to leave, and my mother smashed a keyboard in two over my head. She apologized for losing control, but my dad's response was "yeah, you need to move out". Or for example I see how sweet and fun and respectful and caring my MIL is with my husband (and don't get me wrong, she's also very sweet with me, but it's not the same) and I get so bitter and envious, like seeing a rich nepo baby or someone who won the lottery: you have something amazing just because you got lucky, and I'll never have it.

Back on track, idk man, I can't even watch movies anymore, because all the time you have these filial moments that just feel like a needle to the eye, and they show up out of nowhere in every genre. Every time I see someone being a loving parent, not even particularly good at it, just being slightly less than utter dogshit, I immediately get in a nasty mood, I feel something pinch behind my nose like I'm about to cry, and it's always the same thought, same words, same tone: "I wish I had parents". Mother's day a couple months back almost had me grumbling sitting in a corner for a week.

I hate it, I hate this feeling, I hate my parents, I hate how quickly and drastically it affects me.

I don't know anything about cricket, but was following the match earlier. I was very happy the Tigers won! I'm excited to learn to support my Bengali brothers and sisters, like you have shown your support to our team.

Amor y unidad para siempre!

This question has come to me in parts. A long time ago I learned about cheetahs, and started to wonder why we haven't domesticated them yet (turns out, genetic bottleneck, hard to breed, also, we kinda did, there are communities in Africa that hunt alongside them). It got me thinking about other species we could have domesticated the way we did dogs (I know about cats and cattle, I'm talking hunting buddy), and why did we stop there.

Then yesterday I randomly decided to learn if there are other persistence hunters in the animal kingdom, and turns out, canids! And hyenas (also half domesticated in certain areas), and komodo dragons!

I started seeing claims that our similar hunting styles probably enabled the domestication of dogs, and I wanted to know if this is accurate, and how that came about. I'd expect you'd probably be more inclined to get a hunting buddy that's good at what you're not?

Also, side note, we need a fantasy world where we domesticated komodo dragons instead, because that'd be badass. Just gotta remember to make us immune to their venom somehow!

Hello beloved Bengali friends! Here in Argentina we want to root for you tomorrow in Cricket, but we have no idea where to watch the game!!

I hope we'll get to watch it live, but our hearts are already with you, we love you so much!

We got a 4 star hotel for the wedding night, and then spent the next day having a series of activities and treatments at the hotel’s spa.

It was glorious. Also because we kind of eloped and got married on a weekday, the next day the hotel spa was completely empty. We had all installations just for ourselves. I’m talking about a massive indoor heated pool, jacuzzi, breakfast buffet, solarium, massage therapists, zen room, etc.

Literally all to ourselves. Enjoyed it more than the wedding!

Also, is there a term for “the day after the wedding?”

Hilarious short interaction I had today. Hubby and I went to the supermarket, and there was supposed to be a 70% off product if you buy 2 that wasn’t getting the discount at the self checkout, so we’re sent to the regular manned checkout.

The cashier, an obviously gay man (hey I’m allowed to say it, I’m visibly queer too), has to calculate it by hand. He tries twice with his phone calculator and says to me “does this look right to you? I think it’s right” And I turn to my husband who’s bagging the items and say “babe can you check this, since you’re the numbers one?”

My perfect husband, who’s a big ripped Viking looking metalhead with long hair, green eyes and a big beard glances at the price of the article and calculates it perfectly in his head instantly.

The cashier grins and kind of flirty goes “omg that’s so impressive! Are you like a maths guy?”

My husband’s face instantly burns red and he just mumbles “engineer”.

The cashier goes “that’s so awesome……” and kinda then glances my way. We both lock eyes and slowly smile and both at the same time start doing a slow, VERY knowing nod. Then he goes “guurrrlll, good on you” AND FIST BUMPS ME HAHAHAHAHAHA

My husband nearly burns to cinders on the spot. He’s THE shyest person in the world, he nearly had to run away HAHAHA

Peer reviewed catch of a husband.

I can't get rid of the hope that one day she'll wake up and see the error of her ways, that she'll call crying, begging for forgiveness, that she'll understand, that I'll be made whole, vindicated, finally seen and heard and believed.

"You keep waiting on the miracle", my therapist told me.

How do you stop that? I understand she can't face what she did to me without it completely shattering her world, so she chooses to pretend I'm crazy. I understand she doesn't want to get help, that she comes from a completely fucked home, that she truly did try her best but her brain was mush from the start.

How do I stop hoping every single day today she will fix this? I've been NC for 2 years and LC for 8, moved across the country. I always knew it'd end up like this, even told her specifically that if she wanted to restart contact and be invited to my wedding she had to start therapy, and she chose not to. Then my family adopted the narrative that I just straight up didn't invite her, conveniently forgot I gave her an extremely benevolent and reasonable choice.

I'm so angry every time I think about her, so fucking sad. I want to stop caring, I want to just be ok with it like I'm ok with not winning the lottery.

Quiero poner mi plata en una cuenta remunerada con tasa fija. Tengo una en este momento que me da 3.5% de interés anual (ARQ). Quisiera algo similar para poder guardar tranquila y que vaya creciendo un poquito en el corto plazo (unos 5 años, por eso no voy directo con sp500).

Alguien me puede recomendar una cuenta para esto? Nexo no me sirve, me da menos interés. Si pudiera encontrar una high yields savings account que he visto que tienen algunos bancos que te da bastante interés, especialmente si es directamente un banco que esté asegurado y qué sé yo. La verdad no tengo idea de dónde hacer crecer mis ahorros, o cuánto tengo que pagar de impuestos después. Es muy confuso todo

Comparto porque en la empresa donde trabajo (una agencia de staffing) están buscando cubrir este puesto en las próximas 24 horas.

Sí, hice el post con GPT porque necesito sacarlo rápido 😅 pero si buscan mi username van a ver que soy colaboradora legítima del sub (soy la gorda de las guías, por las dudas)

Importante: NO soy recruiter y no participo en la decisión de quién avanza o quién es contratado. Simplemente comparto la oportunidad porque necesitan candidatos con mucha urgencia.

💰 Compensación durante el proceso

• USD 25 por completar la prueba técnica de edición.
• Si el cliente decide entrevistarte, la compensación total sube a USD 50, aunque después no quedes seleccionado.

• Tipografía, transiciones, música y sound design.
• Adaptar contenido para distintas plataformas.

⚠️ MUY IMPORTANTE

Necesitan cerrar esta búsqueda YA.

Por eso, escribime solamente si:

• Tenés tu CV en inglés listo hoy.
• Tenés un portfolio de short-form listo hoy.
• Podés hacer la prueba técnica HOY (es editar un video corto) y entregarla dentro de las próximas 24 horas.

👉 PASOS PARA PARTICIPAR

1. Mandame un DM con un link PÚBLICO de Drive a tu CV en inglés. El CV debe incluir un link a tu portfolio de videos short-form.

2. Te respondo con el material para la prueba técnica, las instrucciones y un ejemplo del tipo de resultado que esperan.

📌 Antes de empezar vas a poder ver exactamente cuál es el estándar de calidad esperado, para que decidas si querés hacer la prueba. En mi opinión es un estándar totalmente razonable y acorde al puesto; no buscan que trabajes horas y horas gratis ni que entregues una producción cinematográfica.

3. Si decidís seguir, completá la prueba y devolvela dentro de las próximas 24 horas.

4. Yo envío tu CV, portfolio y prueba a la recruiter que lleva el proceso.

💰 La prueba técnica es paga (USD 25) para las entregas que cumplan con ese estándar y puedan presentarse al cliente. Si el cliente decide entrevistarte, la compensación total asciende a USD 50, aunque finalmente no quedes seleccionado.

💸 Asegurate de tener una cuenta o billetera virtual que pueda recibir pagos desde EE.UU. Si no tenés una, te puedo recomendar algunas opciones.

Nuevamente, yo no soy recruiter y no puedo decir quién tiene más chances ni decidir quién avanza. Solo estoy ayudando a difundir una búsqueda que necesita candidatos de forma urgente.

Qué onda las pibas? Vengo a pedir recomendaciones de ginecóloga, idealmente que atienda por OSDE jaja La mía resultó ser una tarada, me perdió los estudios, es muy desorganizada, ni me pidió disculpas, y tengo que pasar ahora por el martirio de hacerme colpo+pap de nuevo.

Veo en la cartilla de OSDE varias por la zona, pero no veo que tengan agenda virtual y/o presencial, sólo una o la otra. No sé si podré ir mucho más lejos, porque por los próximos meses no me puedo tomar tiempo libre en el trabajo, así que tiene que quedarme relativamente cerca de casa.

Si alguien me puede tirar una recomendación de una ginecóloga copada que las haya hecho sentir seguras y no como que quiere que ya la dejen en paz, lo agradecería mucho.

No sé si este es el flair correcto.

En corto, un restaurante me dio pollo crudo (tipo, completamente rosado como de heladera) que comí sin darme cuenta hasta la 2da croqueta, me ofrecieron una compensación cuando me quejé, cuando fui a reclamarla me cambiaron los términos y me dijeron que si no me gusta que denuncie, lo hice, después vinieron a volver a ofrecerme los términos que habíamos pactado, les dije que ahora no pichón que ya hice la denuncia, esos términos te los acepto frente al mediador, si me querés ofrecer paz ahora tiene que ser más que lo que habíamos acordado originalmente/pedí por los canales oficiales, y no me respondieron más.

Honestamente ardo de ira. No me dan los caracteres para contar lo mal que me trataron y lo mucho que me boludearon, literalmente se burlaron de mí y me deliraron a pesar de ser cliente hace 4 años y que me envenenaran y me tuvieran vomitando una semana. Me chupa un huevo la compensación ya realmente, quiero ser un problema para esta gente. Si no vienen a la audiencia de mediación/no acordamos nada, si los tengo que llevar a juicio, cómo es la cosa? No me importa perder, nomás los quiero hacer gastar plata ya. Por cierto me aprobaron el caso en defensa al consumidor ya.
