  • I’ve been trying my best buying responsibly sourced clothing with organic cotton and washing cold/delicate and air drying. Gotta say, the clothes are lasting a long time but they’re so damn expensive that I feel like I have to treat them with such care.

    It’s hard to blame people for not wanting to spend $200 on a lifetime lasting shirt in this economy when they can get one for $10 and have it last maybe a year and just buy new clothes.

    Perhaps as part of regulation, there’s subsidies for responsibly/ethically sourced clothing.









  • NTA. If you were in the bedroom, door closed, clearly not vulnerable to disturbances then he had no right to bother you. Was it rude to yell? Maybe, but who isn’t angry when abruptly woken up?

    It doesn’t sound like you were expected to assume a SAHM role as a guest. And given that he knows you work and he’s a grown man, he could’ve just made a snack or ordered food for himself.

    Personally I’d cut him slack given that there’s some stress to provide for guests 24/7 but I wouldn’t feel guilty about that reaction when being woken up. His normal routine is out of order which probably makes him irritable as well.

    He definitely overstepped his bounds and shouldn’t be making unreasonable demands like that when you’re already stressed out. You are in his house though and he sounds stubborn so I don’t know how comfortable you would be with that confirmation bias and holding onto tension.
