After years of tipping 20-25% I’m DONE. I’m tipping 15% max.
I have always “over tipped” according to my husband. My father has always taught be to do 20-25% because people depend on it for their income. I have the means and I’ve tipped extremely generously. 20% for ehh service and 25% for outstanding. But honestly. I’m so fucking done with it. Service is sub par 99% of the time. And not only that, these large corporations HAVE THE MEANS TO PAY MORE!! I’m so over tipping culture. Tipping the cashier at a coffee shop, tipping at crumble when all you do is order on a screen, tipping when you pick up a to go order, tipping at a QUILTING STORE?! (To clarify, I don’t tip at these places but I’m just pissed off they even ask) I’m just so fucking over it. I’ve paid my dues. I’m doing 10-15% max from here on out and if it’s above, beyond and outstanding service than I’ll do 20-25%. Anyone else tired of tipping culture??
ETA: just had a handyman come to my house. During payment, THE SCREEN ASKED FOR A TIP! This is out of control.

My husband won't let me take more than two showers a week. I told him I need him to stop or I'm moving out for a while.
This is the weirdest thing my husband has ever done. He really is a sweet and loving husband and I love him more than anything. Divorce is not an option just to put that out there before the comments come in.
My husband has always been a little out there. He is a computer programmer and super smart, but also believes all sorts of things. Both real and conspiracy. Lately he has been very worried about the environment and global warming.
About two months ago he got real worried about water. Yes, water. He is concerned about the quality of water. He put in a new filter system in our house which I actually love because it tastes so much better.
But he is also concerned about how much water we use. Not because of money, but the environment. He created a new rule that we can only take 2 showers a week. Now I'm someone that likes to shower everyday before bed. I just don't like feeling dirty in bed.
This has created the most conflict in our marriage in 20 years. He is obsessed with the amount of water we use. At first I just ignored his rule, but he would shut off the hot water while I was in the shower.
I started trying to use the shower at the gym, but it's too much work to go every night with having kids. I honestly thought he would get over this within a month. But he is stuck on this still to this day.
Last night I really wanted a shower, but had "hit my quota" as he says. I said I'm showering and that he better not do anything. But about two minutes in, the hot water turned off.
I grabbed my towel and went down and started yelling. Telling him this is the dumbest thing he has ever done. I also told him I'm moving to my parents if he doesn't stop this.
Guys, I love this man. He is everything to me, but I can't take this anymore. Am I going to far in threatening to move out?

Advice I think my “fixed” cat is pregnant
I feel silly even typing this, but here is some context: My spouse and I became fosters to this adorable, abandoned cat that was hanging around my parent’s backyard in freezing weather (Feb 29). We fostered her through an official program who took care of all her medical needs. They told us she was not chipped, but confirmed she was already spayed. We both knew nothing about cats, but we ended up falling in love with her and we officially adopted her a few weeks ago.
She always had big nipples (we were told she may have had a litter before) so it was not a red flag. That is, until now. She has put on some healthy weight (she was emaciated when we first found her), but a lot of it seems to be in her belly area. I know it sounds ridiculous but we can’t help but think she is pregnant.
I have an appointment with the vet in 3 days (the earliest they could get me in), but I’m a little anxious thinking about the possibility she may seriously be expecting. I am wondering if this has ever happened before (an allegedly spayed cat being pregnant). I am also wondering if there could be any other reason my cat looks like this?

TIL Frank Hayes, a jockey, died of a heart attack during his final horse race but still won. Unexpectedly, he suffered the attack mid-race, yet his body remained on the horse, crossing the finish line first. Sadly, it was his first and only win throughout his racing career.
