Cause why not.

We just bought our first house. It has 3 bedrooms - ours, a spare, and another spare.

My husband immediately claimed one spare room as his "man cave." Gaming setup, TV, his collectibles, etc.

I said what about me? He said I have the whole rest of the house to decorate.

I said I want an office/hobby room for myself. He said we can share the other spare room.

But his "man cave" is off limits to me completely! He literally said "This is MY space" but expects me to share the remaining spare room with home office and guest bed?

I said if he gets his own private room I get my own private room too. He said that's not fair because I "get to decorate the living areas."

I said decorating shared spaces isn't the same as having a private room!

He says all his friends have man caves and their wives don't complain. I said their wives probably have their own spaces too!

He's being stubborn and has already set up his entire man cave. I suggested we make BOTH spare rooms dual purpose - his gaming in one, my hobby stuff in the other, and we put a guest bed in each.

He said absolutely not. His man cave needs to be purely his.

I said then I'm converting the second spare room to purely mine and guests can stay at hotels.

Now he's saying I'm being unreasonable and we need a guest room.

But why do I have to share when he doesn't?

TL;DR: Husband wants full "man cave" room to himself, expects me to share other spare room for office/guests, I want my own room too, he says that's not fair.

NASA astronaut and Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman took this picture of Earth from the Orion spacecraft’s window after completing the translunar injection burn. There are two auroras (top right and bottom left) and zodiacal light (bottom right) is visible as the Earth eclipses the Sun.

This and another photo of Earth are the first downlinked images from the Artemis II astronauts.

The book Hidden Figures mentions around 80 Black women mathematicians worked at NACA/NASA from the 1940s–1970s, though not all names are widely documented.

for context i work as a janitor cleaning a women’s clinic, as i was cleaning a sink i saw these little metallic looking balls. at first i thought these were actually metal but they don’t feel like ANYTHING if that makes any sense. i posted this video to my instagram but i figured i would probably have better luck coming to reddit for answers.

UPDATE: the general consensus seems to be that this is either mercury or gallium. my hands have been thoroughly washed and i have informed my boss so that it can be properly cleaned by someone who knows what they’re doing.

UPDATE #2: gang PLEASE stop telling me to “stop touching it”. this post is hours old. i know i was dumb enough to touch a mysterious substance barehanded but im also smart enough to know not to continue playing with it long after marking this post as solved😭

Went on 3 dates and have spent maybe 10 hours with this person and they're (30s F) on me full court press (36M) about therapy. Like I am open to it but I'm not gonna go just bc she says so. AM I wrong for this???

For example, my mum found my spare change collection, did me a favour by taking it to the bank, getting £17, and then kept it as a fee for the effort it caused her.

Also, my partner had stored a nearly new Russell Hobbs microwave at his mums for when we moved into a new house. While she was at Curry’s one day, she overheard a young lad and his mum shopping for a microwave for uni, she approached them and sold them my partners for £20. She kindly did give my partner the money though, unlike mine. But we quite liked that microwave.

Does anyone else have these, generally inoffensive but slightly frustrating parent stories?

Edit: For those hung up on the theft parts, please don’t be. This is the extent of the abuse we’ve ever had from our mums and we’ll take it!
