So as the title says, my mom found a great tit outside and thinks we can take care of it while i think we should put it where we found it, we don't have the right resources, they're loud, they don't leave new pets alone, they practically torture them, we have 4 pet parrots (budgies and cockatiels) and we had another budgie that died because my parents didn't want to take it to the vet after it fell in oil in the winter. After that she found another bird (not sure what kind) and it died like 2 days after she brought it in. Now I'm trying to save this bird and not let it get thrown out after it dies, i tried convincing her to let it out where she found it but she kept telling me to "just throw it out the window" instead sarcastically and kept yelling at me that I'm being dramatic and that it's her bird and she'll do what she wants with it. We don't have the right resources to take care of our parrots, not even one, but they keep buying because they're cute and we don't have that type yet like they're toys, they don't understand they're living and breathing just like us, missing their families. I'm planning on secretly releasing it tomorrow or the day after that but I'm not sure, I'll be yelled at and everyone already hates me in my family (I'm not being dramatic) for having different opinions that AI is bad, we shouldn't yell all the time for the pets, we shouldn't turn the lights on early in the AM for the pets, that people are people no matter what they look like and who they love. Sorry for the rant, I'm just distressed with everything happening. Let me know what you'd do! Thank you!

So I've gotten reccomended an A06 but other people say no

I've gotten reccomended an A16 but other people say no

Now I've found a cheaper A53 and google says it's better than my A14 but other phones are better

Should i get the A53?

So i currently have a Samsung A14 but it's in shambles and i need to get a new phone (going to look for some secondhand)

Some things I'm looking for is

• Samsung phone

• Thicker sides

• Less laggy (have had this phone for ≈ 3 years, lags alot)

• Better camera

• More affordable

Please don't call me out on any mistakes or something similar, I'm a 17 year old that's forbidden to get a job and has to buy a whole phone by herself. I don't understand all of the fancy stuff about phones and I'm just looking for a quick solution, not a lesson. I'm not looking for people to tell me "just buy another A14" or "No phones have all of those requirements, you're looking for too much" or "you can't find a good but cheap phone"

I'm not trying to be rude, i just want to get answers i can research towards

Thank you to anyone that helps! 🩷

Edit: Country is Macedonia :) Edit: Pricing I'm not really sure how much second hand phones go for but anything under 5k denar (81,27€, $93,73) is basically fair game

I do want to save money as I'm also alone for buying myself most things next year

I want to send a package to my American boyfriend, but the local post office isn't sending packages there due to the wars in iran

Is there any possible way i could send it to him?

As i said in the title, i just returned an item and it told me I don't have to send it back if i just convert it to credits

I now have 200MKD credits, I don't usually buy from temu often because I don't really need alot of things and don't like waiting so will it last until i order my next package or do i have to use it soon?

I want to buy my boyfriend some perfume or cologne for his birthday, but all of the ones I've smelled so far have smelled just horrible, like just alcohol, he doesn't usually wear any perfume or anything either so I don't want it to smell horrible if he does wear it, are there any colognes/perfumes that don't smell like that? I'm not asking for reccomendations because i doubt my city would have anything that isn't very expensive and good at the same time

Otherwise, if i don't find any colognes/male perfumes, what scents should i look for in womens perfume? I don't want him to be made fun of for it

Ps.he can't pick it out because we're long distance, he doesn't have any kind of preference because he doesn't wear perfume or cologne, I'm not forcing him to wear it, i just want to buy it for him, I'd prefer if you type out some scents i could find, but perfumes are alright too!!!

I want to make a gift tapestry that has no background

Do i increase at the ends to make it bigger?

I also want to make it 1 pixel = 3 sc, will that interfere with what i want to make?

My boyfriend likes deltarune and his birthday is next month

He showed me deltarune chapter 1 yesterday and it had a scene where the main character was looking under the kitchen sink and says there's a "ice-E's Cool Boys Body Spray Spray For The Boys Flamin' Hot Pizza Flavor" and we both laughed at it for a bit, i want to bring it to life

No there is no label i can take as reference from the game as it is just text that the main character says

I need help with how to position or color the words so that they make sense in a way? I feel like some should be bigger or at the top or something similar, I'm just not sure how to go about it

I'm also using Ibis paint so it might not look the best since i can't really make the words look straight under eachother so i might import the transparent pngs to canva

Thank you to anyone that answers!

My boyfriend likes playing balatro, his birthday is coming up and I'd like to get him something related to balatro but I'm not sure what

I'd like to MAKE him something preferably, i crochet plushies and clothing and like crafting/drawing, but I don't know anything about the game

What are possible things i could make?

Feel free to delete my post if it's not meant for here, thank you to anyone who replies:)

TW: Abuse, Serious conversation

So I'm 17F, oldest sibling

Location: N. Macedonia

My dad's(40(?)M) been abusive to my mother(41F) since before I was even born, but she never left (for some reason), then it continued on until me and my siblings (13F, 6M) were born, but in small bursts

My grandma (dads side) was the cause of all of these bursts, I'm not exactly sure why but she would cause arguements between my mom and her and my dad would get mad at either my mom or both of them and cause chaos

Because of this lifestyle, he's irresponsible, financially idiotic(gambles, drinks, gives money away, and also doesn't pay anything in the house), sexist, racist, homophobic, and simply cruel, he has told me that it's embarrassing to talk to me because I'm a girl and only the mother is supposed to talk to the daughters, but he doesn't interact with my younger brother either

Since my grandma died things have been calmer in a way and my parents argue less, but he still believes he's the breadwinner of the family even if he doesn't give a cent for food, drinks, or anything family related that doesn't involve himself, my mom is stuck with bills because of him (including paying off him and his moms credit with her own money because neither of them wanted to), most of the arguements nowadays are short and non physical but still scary in my opinion because we don't know when he'll go back to that again because he's unpredictable

My dad is the main problem, but because of these issues at home my mom has become emotionally abusive, calling us names if we do almost anything tbh, she says other hurtful things that for some reason i can't ever recall, i assume it's because I don't WANT to remember them(?)

My sister is the least of my problems yet affects me every day, she backtalks, threatens (with proof of my past relationships), calls me names, talks bad about me, etc etc

Now, how/why i want to move out

I've been planning escapes since i was about 10 years old, but none are very long term

I graduate high school at 19 and that sets me back a whole year on when i could possibly move

I want to move out into the capital city when i turn 18, but don't know how to get my dad off of my back about it since he doesn't let me have much freedom (first time i went outside alone: 14, curfew at 17 is 10pm and not a minute later, can't go out more than 2 days in a row, etc)

I'm thinking of maybe borrowing money or using credit for the first month of rent and utilities because I'm not allowed to have a job (any kind) until I'm 18 (because of my dad), I could wait another year but I'm afraid about what my dad will say when i get a job or stay out late or go outside in general, i know he'll have no control over me legally, but i still have fear for him

Main part I'm scared about though is what will happen when i move out and want to cut contact? What if my dad becomes physically abusive again because of me, i can't go back but I can't protect my family, my mom won't divorce him (again, for some reason), and i can't do anything about my siblings

I'd like TO move abroad/study abroad eventually and I'm not sure how he'd take that either, all of my family tells me to be realistic about it and just stay home until i get married off to some guy, even though I've told them I'm definitely going to try to move abroad

I do have my long distance (I'm ready for the hate) boyfriend to potentially try to support me in some way (he's already sent me some money when i got stuck financially) it's still not sure what we'll do exactly but we're going to try to figure it out

I'm not sure if i included exactly everything

TLDR my family is abusive, most of all my dad, i want to move out at 18 but i graduate high school at 19, i want to move abroad eventually, I'm scared of how my dad will react to me moving out because he's strict and sexist, believes i should stay home until i get married and such, I'm scared he'll abuse the rest of my family even if they aren't that good either

What can i do to escape yet not cause chaos?
