So I live in a sober living for trans people, but we also allow cis queer people in here because it's hard out in the recovery world for queer people. Well, one of our housemates today revealed himself to be a raging transphobe today. I assigned him to the kitchen chore for the rest of the week, which is already the most time consuming chore, but I want to make it hell for him. We have a gas range, a microwave, a dish rack that he's responsible for putting up all the dishes on, and a fridge he's supposed to clean once throughout the week.

I need ideas people, so far I plan on getting ketchup packets from the gas station down the street and stepping on them so the floor has old, exploded ketchup packets on it. Also gonna do this in the fridge so it's hardened and gross for him to clean.

I'm going to fill the dish rack with clean dishes just so he has to put them back away. And I'm going to make it an overwhelming pile liable to fall over in hopes he breaks a plate and has to sweep it up (or maybe cuts himself on glass)

Gonna start splashing coffee all over the microwave, and microwave stuff with tomato sauce so that it explodes all over the microwave. Then when he forgets to clean the microwave, I'm gonna get on his ass.

I'm gonna start frying random shit just to get grease all over the counters/gas range. I'm pretty low on food, so I might just take the direct route of pouring water into a hot pan of oil. But everything will be covered in grease.

Gonna start pouring random shit all over the sink filter and never empty it on my own. He left it super greasy this morning with God knows what and I had to empty it, but that'll be his problem this week

This doesn't involve the kitchen, but he's minorly allergic to bleach so I'm already starting to clean the rest of the house with bleach and hide it so that he is constantly itchy and with a headache. I'm then going to lie about there being no bleach in the house if he smells it. Towels, walls, toilets, bathtub, everything cleaned with bleach.

I'm also definitely keying his car. Gonna ask one of my coworkers for an old key and just go to town

Leyla on Anti-psychotics would never do this, but this is definitely something I would have done before the anti-psychotics. It's nice to have the old me back.

this sounds like a really bad idea

[–] Jabril@hexbear.net 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

This sounds like a lot of work.

Just kick them out

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I'm just a house manager, I can't kick him out as much as I'd love to

[–] Jabril@hexbear.net 1 points 2 hours ago

Oof well, still it does seem like a lot of work to do what you are talking about, would it be less work to organize a kick out with everyone else? It's unsafe to have this person around so it seems reasonable

[–] hellinkilla@hexbear.net 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Have a house meeting and decide together on what to do.

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 3 points 2 hours ago

We already had the house meeting, he's not getting kicked out. He's just getting worse after the meeting. We all fucking hate him now because he showed his ass hard after being called out

[–] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 10 points 4 hours ago

I'm with the rest of the crowd on this one, pretty sure you don't need advice on how too fuck up a kitchen, it seems you've got that covered lol.

Alternative option here, have you tried getting everyone to yell at him until he leaves?

[–] JustSo@hexbear.net 7 points 4 hours ago

We would never talk you out of this in c/badposting btw.

[–] BilduEnjoyer@hexbear.net 19 points 7 hours ago

Uh, don't? That's just going to escalate things and bring hell to the rest of the household. Find a way to kick them out via mediation. If they're being transphobic they're breaking the rules.

[–] webp@mander.xyz 27 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Just talk with the other people and kick them out, why do you have to plot this shit

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Because we had a house meeting and the house director decided not to kick him out, and now he's being an asshole to everybody in the house

[–] hellinkilla@hexbear.net 2 points 51 minutes ago

If he is escalating, then maybe pull back to see if he will do something that will land in trouble.

If you want to be very diplomatic, find him another place to live. With someone you dont like.

[–] Blockocheese@hexbear.net 13 points 6 hours ago

I hope this was an elaborate vent post

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 13 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Or just communicate like an adult

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 2 points 2 hours ago

I did communicate, he just got whinier and got more pissy.

[–] nothx@hexbear.net 6 points 5 hours ago

Go off, queen.

But honestly I would keep this as a venting session and refrain from acting on any these actions.

[–] Shaleesh@hexbear.net 13 points 7 hours ago

Please don't do this, and stop doing the other things you mentioned. This is really going to hurt you and it'll be really sad when it does.

[–] microfiche@hexbear.net 15 points 7 hours ago

This sounds like a very bad idea and is apt to just make you look bad if someone figures it out. What is the potential blowback if it doesn't work?

[–] Spike@hexbear.net 32 points 9 hours ago

This is a terrible plan

[–] Sickos@hexbear.net 12 points 7 hours ago

Yeah, I'm on team "don't make your own life hell to fuck some one else over". Don't wrestle a pig with shit on its balls in the shit. The pig enjoys it.

Kill them with kindness, so they don't expect it when you stab them in their sleep.

[–] da_gay_pussy_eatah@hexbear.net 41 points 10 hours ago

I mean, alternatively the guy could just refuse to clean it and then you're stuck with this mess. That actually seems more likely

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 23 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Just because you let cis queers in doesn’t mean you have to let transphobes in.

This goes doubly in a recovery space. I've seen too many horror stories of trans people in mental health institutions being traumatized further by being housed with transphobes, this is jeopardizing the recovery process of all the people that space was originally intended for.

[–] darkmode@hexbear.net 13 points 9 hours ago

it’s better simply to vent and not to act on these feelings

[–] Meltyheartlove@hexbear.net 4 points 7 hours ago

I have a suggestion

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 5 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Buy a bunch of cheap mugs and constantly pile them up in the sink with half eaten microwave cakes or cereal

Edit: also don't do it lmao.
