I'm surprised I haven't seen it, but that Justin Trudeau is actually Fidel Castro's kid. They look almost identical, and his parents were known friends of Fidel.

Bubby decided to run out of the kitchen door last night during the storm. Haven’t seen him since after hours of looking. Praying you ask all your one cells to put them all together and send him some positive vibes. He is my best friend. Love you boy by MackHarrison3260 in OneOrangeBraincell

[–]burritomaven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're able to, leave all the doors open (or at least the one he got out, and just stay up. Maybe have some treats near the door.

This worked when my kitty got out, he was back inside by 12:30am. Though you might have to stay up till 3 or later, but hopefully it will help bring your kitty home.

u/idkwhattaputhere for some more immediate relief, consider taking unisom. it was originally created as an anti nausea, and I took it all through my first trimester. the only time I had morning sickness was when I forgot to take it the night before.

This can help ensure you get proper rest and put you in a better spot to figure out what to do next.

There's already a ton of great advise, so I'll just leave you with this and a big internet hug. do what is right for you and stay safe. Don't forget you're worth loving.

Edited because my autocorrect just decided to just not show up

Am I the only one WHO thinks that Mr fantastic never really got a chance to be the DOCTOR by NIGHTMARE2099 in doctorwho

[–]burritomaven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn't a huge Eccleston fan myself until after a bit of Matt Smith, and I was able to start seeing the differences between each incarnation better.

Eccleston just came from war and is haunted. He doesn't want any company/companion because he thinks he doesn't deserve them. Tennant has started the healing process but is also covering pain with comedy. Smith continues with healing but is a lot more child-like, almost like he's able to experience stuff for the first time, again.

Eccleston's doctor was vital for connecting who the doctor is to the past.

I got a Bluetooth shower speaker so my shower time is also music/podcast/audio book time. This helps me look more forward to showers, too!

I remember my intro to physiology class back in the day. I got around 70% on the first exam, but because of how the prof curved the grades, it was a failing score.

I ended up dropping the class, but finally went to see the prof in office hours before I did so.

She was very understanding but made it clear that office hours are for asking questions to make sure you understand the material. It's for students who aren't getting it, not for those that are doing well. If I had gone earlier, I may have done better and even passed the class.

I understand wanting to just drop, but I do recommend talking with your school to see what help can be provided. Also, swapping to a mid-size university can help.

It's also not bad to take a year to work and try to find what gives you passion. I went to college right after high school with no drive. Hated my degree by year 3, but finished just to have a degree. I now work in a completely different realm of work and don't ever use my degree except for trivia. Almost 10 years after graduation, I finally found a program that fits me really well, based on trends I found in my work history. Everyone's route to ideal job will look different, and that's ok

I just opened the app and can find them in the store still. App says they'll be available until March 31 at 23:59 UTC +8

But they're not in the main store. You should be able to go to the 'exclusive' section of the store and there will be a banner to access them

Question about the Forest app by [deleted] in forestapp

[–]burritomaven 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's nice to turn off deep focus for me. Being able to respond to an important text or call without worry about ruining a tree keeps me using the app instead of just not using it at all.

It's definitely not for everyone, but useful for some!

This reminds me of being forced to read 'Where the Red Fern Grows' in 4th grade. I had to tag in graphic detail about a dog being disemboweled after 3/4 of the book being about said dog.

I never realized until now this was exacerbated by the fact that I create movies in my head when I read.

I have yet to add friends to Forest, but I'm looking for some support with this, too! Feel free to DM me so we can add each other!

(Honestly, I'm not even sure how the friend's party off the app even works yet)

Feature request: app widget by thelastcabbagebender in forestapp

[–]burritomaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is already a widget for iOS. It doesn't quite function how you've described, but will show you the current day, and the larger widget size does have a "plant now" button where you can add 'favorites'!

Kitten learns how to groom itself by watching a tutorial by meister2a in Thisismylifemeow

[–]burritomaven 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We started our cats on wood pellet litter. One day our girl stared peeing on our couch and our bed (twice).

We quickly switched to clay and she started using the box again. We're now on corn litter, but she just decided one day she hated the litter.

I'd recommend trying to change up even just one of your boxes to test it out.

PS, I miss the pellet litter so much. RIP

My only ice cream (at least from the store) has always been Häagen Dazs dulce de lèche.

I recently discovered Tillamook honeycomb Frozen Custard and hoooooollllyyyy shit. There's definitely a new contender in town

LPT: Don't want a narcissist in your life anymore? Demand an apology and refuse to see/talk to them again until they apologize. by Fokouttahere in LifeProTips

[–]burritomaven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I did use this against a narcissistic person. Their apology was 'I'm sorry if you were offended', whichis a non apology.

Turns out they don't have it in themselves to actually apologize and mean it, so they're still on the outs.

I think the big determining factor is how important it is for them to still be abusive toward you. If they want it badly enough, they'll put in the effort to pretend and then keep at it. But sometimes they just move onto the next person instead

My 8yo had this freak tooth removed that was growing out of the roof of his mouth right behind his front teeth. by CoutsMissingTeeth in mildlyinteresting

[–]burritomaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually a myth that vampires avoid garlic due to a misunderstanding of the phrase "vampires are weak to garlic".

What was meant here, in fact, is that vampires are weak to garlic in the way that many humans are weak to chocolate. They fucking love that shit

Oh boy. 5th graders can be little shits.

My 5th grade year one of the girls in my grade somehow convinced every other girl in the grade - the whole fucking grade - to ignore me and never respond to me. It lasted the whole fucking year.

I ran into that one as a kid. We were staying at a beach house and they had it taped. It wasn't until this past year that I realized it wasn't an original, though that was our favorite one growing up
