i wonder how much you can clean up nowadays buying just the worst shittiest clothes from the salvation army and badly stitching band patches on them to sell as "authentic punk battle jackets" to middle-aged gen-Xers and cosplaying tech bros

I thought punk jackets were like deeply personal things you hand crafted over time patch by patch, with each patch being some band or something that was important to you. Not some off the shelf pre-created thing you buy and wear with no context.

I wonder how much a patch costs at a show

I'm guessing between 20 and 30 bucks

you know how practically every boomer pretends they were a yippie back in the days when like 3/4 of their generation thought MLK got what he had coming, and there's a vast market for Woodstock crap and sweatshop tie-dye?

I just wonder what the youth subculture nostalgia fad is gonna be for old millennials who were too lame to be involved when it was actually happening, $40 fake Occupy merch?

AITA for expecting my husband not to wake me up in the middle of the night?

quote:

So, I (24f) and my husband (28m) have been married almost five years and we have 2 kids (one is about to be 3 and the other will be 2 at the end of the year) This wasn’t an issue in the beginning of our marriage but only started happening since having kids. I try my best to go to bed by midnight. My kids are great sleepers so most times if I got to bed by midnight then I’ll still get 8 hours of sleep. My husband has been at home due to a work injury for over around 2 months. For the most part we don’t have that many problems. But our one constant is that in the middle of the night or early morning (typically between 3a-6a) he will come to bed after playing video games and he will wake me up. He will wake me up by singing loudly, randomly starting a conversation with me, shaking me awake, or sucking my toes which is something he knows that I absolutely hate! I have tried many different ways to explain to him why this upsets me. I tell him I’m trying to be in a routine for me and the kids and it’s hard to stick to it whenever I don’t get a full nights sleep, I tell him I feel like he doesn’t respect me, that it’s like he’s trying to sleep deprive me etc. I’ve yelled at him for doing this, I’ve cried over it, and he thinks I’m overreacting most of the time. He even thought of coming up with an agreement where he wouldn’t wake me up past 1am and wrote this agreement down. He stuck to it for maybe a week and now it’s been pretty much a nightly thing since then. I am so sick of it and he doesn’t seem to see the harm. So I need to know: am I expecting too much from him? Am I the rear end in a top hat for expecting him not to wake me up in the middle of the night?

Edit to add: I’m a SAHM but I do run my own small business. Also my husband knows that whenever he wakes me up it will typically take me half an hour or longer before I can fall back asleep which is part of the reason I get upset.

Edit to add: he is not unemployed. He has duties to do from home but they do not require a lot of time and he typically does them in between game matches. And he is earning his full income right now. He is present with our kids and spends time with them. He could be better but it’s not like he just ignores them all day. Edit to add: I noticed people wondering what kind of injury. It is a knee injury

As much as I love the games in so many ways like the whole point is that Travis Touchdown's entire wardrobe is as cringe as the devs can possibly make it. I did get the idea of wearing sunglasses hanging off a belt loop from him, which I'm still pretty sure was more trouble than its worth.

You're a lot less likely to get the living poo poo kicked out of you for being a nazi at a punk show now but unless you're in Oregon or something it's still a good way to get bullied by a bunch of 14-year-old hardcore kids

When ever I see someone with a hentai looking avatar I assume they're a nazi and generally am not wrong. Pervy anime avatars only cover two demographics: pedo nazi's and trans communists. Its pretty easy to quickly tell who's who. Is it a weird sexy monster-demon thing? That's a trans communist, your ally. Is it a child with huge boobs? That's a nazi, your enemy.

If she doesn't want to clean blood off the sheets from kicking that fucker in the head next time he sucks her toes to wake her up, when she goes to sleep she should just tell him it's bed time and yank the power cord of whatever he's playing out of the wall.



It would probably torpedo the relationship but that's not exactly a downside at this point.

I wanna be your left hand man

Jailbird fiance, maybe husband?

quote:

I'll try to be concise about this.

I'm 38F supposed to be getting married this week, August 6. My fiance 42M is involved in a vicious, ugly custody fight with his ex wife (divorced 3 years ago). Yesterday they got in a text message fight and he ended up going to her house and making a scene. She had a restraining order put on him on Saturday because he wouldn't stop sending her angry text messages, again. After the judge granted the order he got in his car and drive directly to her house. The police were called and he was arrested. So he's sitting in jail as we speak. However, we were supposed to go get our marriage license that day and then get married 6 days later. Can't do that if he's in jail. So obviously I was left to postpone the wedding. Only now I'm wondering if I should not only postpone the wedding but if I should just cancel the wedding altogether and break up with him. He clearly has issues. But are they the kind of issues we can work through? Or does he need to work through those things alone? I'm so confused.

TL:DR my fiance is in jail, should we work things out or should I leave him?

UPDATE: thank you all for smacking some sense into me and helping me see the obvious choice! I He was released this morning so I texted him and broke up (being physically near him probably not smart). You guys were right, he went ballistic on me. The meanest, nastiest, borderline evil things you can say to someone, he said to me. It only confirmed I did the right thing. And made me glad I live 5 hours away from him. He is a scary person. Glad I'm done with that! Thanks internet strangers.

It did take me one relationship to learn that if you’re scared about breaking up with someone because they would get revenge you’re just prolonging the inevitable pain on making less likely to happen on your terms.
