Okay. Am I the asshole if I call out my roommate's self-centered behavior? I live in a communal space, where everybody except C shares freely. C got a good job through connections and is able to spend freely on themselves, spending little on household items, groceries, etc. They say they're broke every month, but I've seen their takeout containers and amazon boxes, so maybe it's a spending problem. Worst of all, when we are low on food, C just disappears for a few hours and comes back instead of cooking with everyone.
I've told C that they're being selfish and they should start considering other people, but it goes in one ear and out the other. I offered to help budget but they don't listen! They barely spend more than $400 of their $2000 a month on groceries for the house; the rest goes to their lavish lifestyle while the rest of us suffer. I just want them to pay their fair share. AITA for asking them to be fair??

ngl in 90% of situations I'd be like okay yeah this is a justification--but making an assumption like that without a moment's doubt or thinking to ask their roommate "hey what's with the cup" actually does fit 100% with my understanding of them
Better diagram with more info. I'm still losing my mind over this.
You called for a polycule diagram? Now Introducing: The Rotational Polycules Monthly Schedule Heptagon!
My own analysis of the polycule, plus a document containing everything we know about this household.
infodump from the notes
Total house budget: $2,775-$3,055
Using the high end of that budget ($3,055), C contributes 13% of that budget already. At the lower end ($2,775), C contributes 15%
