TIFU By saving my sister from my father

Today I F'd up by saving my sister's life from my father, my Father (M 40, also ex military) has always been hard on me (M22) as I am not his biological son. Abuse, Assault, The abuse horror stories you might imagine. Today was supposed to be my sister's graduation party (F 19) as she just graduated high school. All was well till an argument Started over absolutely nothing. I thought nothing of it till I came outside again and saw him pinning her to the ground, marks on his vehicle that show a face imprint as if he threw her into the side of the car, blood on her face and all, as I approached he put his legs on either side of her neck and began to crush her neck. This is when I stepped in and quite literally threw this 250 - 300 pound man like 10 feet. This is when I unintentionally took the anger on myself not realizing it. I helped my sister up and everything seemed to calm down. (Side note I still live at home as finding income that can actually support the purchase of a house is nearly impossible anymore). The party all goes into town to a hotel to use the pool and some family is staying there. I assisted my sister in packing to leave as she stayed behind after that due to not wanting to be anywhere near my father. She is currently staying with a friend in the same city and she is working in getting an apartment in town. Now this morning I woke up early to say bye to all the extended family that came to town for her graduation and my younger brother (M 10) comes to me and obviously choking back tears says "Heads up they are kicking you out today" and I thanked him and immediately got to preparing. My mother (F 40) comes to me and simply says "Get out, Find a ride" as my car is currently broken down and I was working in fixing it before this mess happened. So now I write this crashing on a buddies couch and I only have 3 weeks. No job thanks to not having a way to it, not enough money to fix my vehicle, no vehicle, a time limit on the roof over my head, and a sister of which my parents want to find and I am stressed as to what they may try if they do find her.

TL;DR I stepped in on a fight and potentially saved her life from my father and I am the one who got kicked out.

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
