*AITA For Calling My Husband A D**k For Thinking Our New Home Is More His Than It Is Mine?*

Throwaway, should be a short post ​ My (35f) husband (37m) and I have recently moved into a new home - a bigger home - where we're hoping on raising our kids (5f, 3f, 2m) . ​ Well, I do not work currently. I have a degree to get a job that will pay me well, but my husband and I both decided that I should stop working for a bit to help with the kids. My husband makes a lot (in my opinion, and in general) and it's mostly his money paying for the house. And because of this fact, he has taken a liking to calling our house "his house" instead of "Our house." This has annoyed me a bit, but I've just been going with it. And every time I bring it up he goes "Yeah, right." ​ I reached my breaking point about two days ago when my husband has his friends over, and he made a remark saying "My money did this." I was very, very upset at the remark, but I waited until his friends left, then I kind of flipped him off, to which I eventually called him a huge d**k for continuing to say "his" after I told him that I don't like the phrase. He's been sleeping in the guest room since, and we really haven't been talking. I'm asking here to see if im the ass for what I said here. ​ EDIT: Holy crawp I didn't expect this post to blow up like it did, but let me just make some things clear: - My husband isn't a narcissist or financial abuser. The house is one of the only thing he actually calls "his." Most of our other things or assets he calls "Ours" even though he's bought most of it. This post is just mainly about the house. - No, we will not be getting a divorce. I love my husband and I know he loves me too, but he can be a bit over-confident. He's a good dad and is determined to give me and my children a nice life. ​ submitted by /u/throwTHT20102038943 to r/TwoHotTakes [link] [comments]

*Stanley finally gives direct answer on scary safety concern about cups*

If you've been brave enough to venture into your local big-box retailer, cafe or sporting-goods store recently, chances are you've noticed a swarm around one particular display. And chances are that display was empty. Related: Under Armour just quietly developed a perfect Lululemon rival One of the biggest hits of the past year has been the Stanley cup, officially known as the Quencher, which is the brand's most popular model. The 40-ounce stainless steel insulated cup features a handle and comes in a variety of trendy colors as an enamel outer. It's behind the viral TikTok trend #WaterTok, which has garnered over one billion views. And if it seems silly that one cup to hold water or other beverage has a chokehold on a particular American demographic, consider what propels popularity on social media in the first place. Wellness is one of the fastest growing trends in terms of dollars spent, and visually based apps like TikTok and Instagram promote an aesthetic that appeals to many users: Stay hydrated, take care of yourself, wear a cute matching workout set and, of course, take your accordingly matched Stanley cup with you everywhere. View the original article to see embedded media. Stanley addresses lead concern But growing concern over the materials Stanley uses to make its sensational product has begun to alarm some users, who pay anywhere from $35 to hundreds of dollars, depending on the cup style. Some users claim that the soldered bottom of Stanley cups contains lead, and if the bottom were to fall off for some reason, the person drinking out of the cup could be exposed to lead. This has panicked some drinkers, who have sworn off the cups or promised to buy knock-offs. Stanley responded to these claims on Monday, claiming that if consumers are using the cups properly, they shouldn't be exposed to the substance. More Retail:Target adds 1,000 new products shoppers have been begging for Under Armour just quietly developed a perfect Lululemon rival Popular retailer struggles with a growing (and annoying) problem “Please rest assured that no lead is present on the surface of any Stanley product that comes in contact with you or the contents of your container,” a Stanley spokesperson told WCNC Charlotte. “Every Stanley product meets all U.S. regulatory requirements, including California Proposition 65, which requires businesses to warn Californians about heavy metal and chemical exposure.” The company does say that it seals the bottom of its cups with a pellet that contains lead, though it insists this is an industrywide practice. It also says the lead is covered by stainless steel, so users should never come into contact with the heavy metal. One Reddit user responded to the claim on the r/StanleyCups subreddit, asking if others are concerned about the latest revelations. " I personally wouldn’t worry about it and will still continue to use my Stanley," one user wrote. "If it was some new random company, I’d probably reconsider, but Stanley has been around for awhile, way before it blew up in recent years, so for that I trust that they are pretty on top of creating products that aren’t harmful to their consumers." TheStreet has reached out to Stanley for comment.

*The Baltimore Ravens are pushing their own version of Taylor Swift — and it's so funny*

Taylor Swift has taken over the NFL all season due to her relationship with Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce. The pop superstar has been present in a number of games, including each of Chiefs' last two playoff wins. And she's expected to be in a suite again for Sunday's massive AFC Conference Championship match between the Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens. On the other side, the Ravens are pushing their own "celebrity" as their version of Taylor Swift — though he might be the polar opposite of Swift, which even he admits. The Ravens have invited comedian Stavros Halkias to many of the team's recent games beginning during the team's massive Week 17 win over the Miami Dolphins. Stavros Halkias reacts as he attends an NFL football game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Miami Dolphins at M&T Bank Stadium on Dec. 31, 2023 in Baltimore. Michael Owens/Getty Images Halkias, known as "Stav" or "Stavvy," is no where near as famous as the popstar — Swift has 279 million Instagram followers, Halkias has a little less than 680,000 — though in the comedy scene, he's built enough of a name to warrant a Netflix special that was released in late 2023. And the Ravens have turned him into a cult figure for the franchise that the Baltimore Ravens' team website published a story on Tuesday, Jan. 23 called "They've Got Her, We've Got Stavvy." The story chronicled the rise of the Baltimore native whose secondary persona named "Ronnie" posts his reaction to every Ravens game. The Ravens have also crossposted Halkias on their social media accounts, and the response from fans has been overwhelmingly positive with many of the comments showering Halkias.Related: NFL is the king of broadcast television, Divisional Round Playoff weekend just showed why And the Ravens have turned him into a cult figure for the franchise that the Baltimore Ravens' team website published a story on Jan. 23 called "They've Got Her, We've Got Stavvy."

"Everyone in America should be rooting for the Ravens," Halkias joked.

There's nothing more All-American than that. And if you don't like the way this country's going right now, you should be rooting for Baltimore to score a symbolic victory as a forgotten inner city that industry abandoned."Related: Veteran fund manager picks favorite stocks for 2024
