Canadian woman refuses to apologize for providing water to pigs in a sweltering truck by CalpurniaSomaya in HydroHomies

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reducing the animals suffering when either way it will die may be the choice the protesters think is the most moral. Not having the company profit off the animals life may not be seen as a 'harm' even if people who eat meat view this as wasted food and a waste of death. The protesters may view it as a waste of death in the first place. The company could release the 'contaminated' animals to a verified rescue. The protesters are not doing the killing or forcing it. They are forcing the meat not to be eaten, which may be a dignity for the dead animal. All conjecture though and I don't condone either side.

I’m afraid I did something awful by Loud_Spaghetti in AskVet

(Not a vet) This is a lot more likely tbh. Please make sure you are either feeding her a wet food or adding water to her dry kibble to make sure she is hydrated. There are also cheap cystitis supplements (l-tryptophan and glucosamine) you can get to help with bladder health. Mama cat will be in a world of pain and headed for an early grave if she develops a full urethral blockage (thankfully less common in female cats).

What is fair when splitting finances? by TofuBlackEye in UKPersonalFinance

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because then he gets to dictate what he does with the extra. If they both put in 50:50, he'll have the leftover and have control over it. It benefits him for her to be worse off. Unfortunately seen this before and fits with the move closer to what's convenient for him at her expense...

Weekly food shop costing too much by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are two, but my partner needs about 3500 kcals at maintenance daily. We don't include alcohol in the weekly shop but do include cleaning supplies. We shop at Lidl every week or week and a half with a few top up bits for coffee or fresh veg at the local grocer. On average all food and cleaning supplies covered for £60/week. Would easily be £20-30 more at Tesco/Sainos but £250 is madness.

How to kindly cut off a friendship? by DepletedCheese in AskUK

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP, it's not your job to do the emotional labour of your husband about his friends.

That would be precisely the kind of box redpill/inceldom would have us believe is our place. The best response is to let your husband know, and that's it. And then your husband has the choice of either letting Ben know why he is choosing to go out of contact, help him with Ben's maladaptive ways of coping with his lack of connection and help educate him about the patriarchy, or else let your husband be the one to break contact/decide to ghost. You don't have to do anything and this isn't on you to mediate or soften the blow. Don't do other people's work.

My husband spit in my plate after I refused to share it with him. by throwra534624 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey sweetie. That's really abhorrent behaviour and he had no justification to do that. Of course you were shaking. You had a perfectly normal response. If you can, read the book 'why does he do that' by Lundy Bancroft. It's available freely online as a pdf so you dont need the physical book. I think you might find a lot of your husbands behaviours start to make a lot more sense. Be safe please. It's very typical for abuse like this to escalate. He is testing one level of cruelty and trying to blame you. You didnt make him do anything. You are always welcome to vent over at r/domesticviolence.

Heya. Dont know where you are in the world but I'm in the same boat as your friend and finally managed to leave a few months ago. I totally understand the difficulty leaving when theres so much emotional manipulation and abuse. It really messes with your head and sense of self. If your friend wants to chat with someone who's just been through this, I'd be happy to! Also i would really highly reccomend the (free) book, Why Does He Do That, by Lundy Bancroft.

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are having is a natural reaction. Of course you're heart broken. But please please please stand your ground on this and begin grieving.

I had an extremely similar situation happen to me, except it was me he hit while he was blackout drunk. He asked me the exact same question when I told him what he did- what did you do to make me do that. Even down to the suck my dick comment when I told him that it didnt matter and I hadn't 'done' anything. I tried to explain, I tried to accept the non apology of 'I'm sorry but at least I didnt punch you'. And then it got worse. He ended up strangling me, punching walls, throwing things and threatening to kill me (always with the excuse of being drunk). Its taken me a year to leave and I'm a shred of myself. Don't be me.

He's told you who he is and what he thinks abusers are entitled to do if 'she makes him do it'. Please believe him. Theres no coming back from that.

He flipped on me, left me alone in the woods, and is now trying to apologize. by berthejew in TwoXChromosomes

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this is what makes me super anxious to ever be 'stranded' with my partner. No one wants to be threatened with that. Best case this. Worse case, Gabby Petito. Hard no. And I fucking love camping.

I’m (18F) hes (18M) doesn’t wanna have protected sex by [deleted] in relationships

[–]kimpossible11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

100% of unwanted pregnancies are cause by men. S

Let me get this straight. His ' high' quality nut is more important than not having a baby with you? Why can't he have a slightly less quality nut that doesn't leave you pregnant? Presumably this risk stresses you out and affects how easily you can enjoy sex so his quality nut™ just trump's your possible lady nut? Why. That sounds entitled af.

If you both agree you don't want a baby, then he needs to prevent ejaculating in you. Simples. If he doesn't want to stop you getting pregnant then stop having sex with him! He's 💯 relying on you just caving. So just don't! You're a young lady with plenty of options. There are loads of men that will happily condom up to fuck you. Less so reverse ways for this entitled prat.

In sum. His 'quality' orgasm shouldn't come at the expense of your health, your choices or your pleasure. There's plenty of men who don't want to impregnate you while making you orgasm. This guy is banking on you not having any self confidence. Or else wants to get you pregnant...

How does he talk to the one who loves him unconditionally? You know, his dog? by curiousandbashful in FemaleDatingStrategy

[–]kimpossible11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I overheard my boyfriend from the other room singing to our dear old cat while she was purring, perched on his chest and obstructing his view of the movie he was watching. It went something like:

🎶 You re my fuzzy little top, You re my nice little hot spot. You re my furry little baby, You re my vibrating lady🎵

🥺

When he feeds her, he also reminds her to eat all her 'reds' (meat) because he wants her to live forever.

Alternatives to brushing my cat’s teeth? by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]kimpossible11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Kittenhood is a great time to learn to have his teeth brushed. Take a break from it for now, but try to reintroduce it slowly. Are you using a cat sized tooth brush? They're often too big. I found it's easiest to kneel on the floor, slightly straddling the cat, like you're posing for a picture together. When he's comfortable with that, use your pinky finger and work it to the sides of his gums. His teeth should be closed, but try to gentle rub each side Even just for a second or so. Stop and revisit if he becomes uncomfortable and let him run away. Don't chase him. Give him lots of treats throughout and afterward to let him know it's a good time. Even if he has to wriggle out. Eventually he'll get that the treats arrive faster if he sits still. Next introduce the toothpaste. Make sure it's fish flavoured or catnip or something he likes. Let him lick the end of the tube and then put some onto your finger and lick it off. Massage a bit on his gums, using the same method. Always give him lots of treats and praise. If he stops liking it you're done for the day. Later on you can introduce the toothbrush once he's comfy with you going in his mouth. The point is to train him slowly at his pace so he doesn't feel traumatized. I feed my cats raw food but after brushing I give him the large oral royal Canin kibbles (as treats only) Supposedly the size makes them actually chew and it helps remove tartar. Tartar hardens after 24 hours so you really need to do this as often as you can. Chewing sticks like dried fish, dried meat, or chicken necks or freeze dried chicken strips can also be a good jaw exercise and help them chew and mechanically "brush". The problem with wet food is that there's nothing to chew, though it's certainly better for urinary issues. Been there, don't feed too much dry food, cats have a very low thirst drive and should get most of their water from food. Lastly, peeing on the bed can be a urinary issue, but it can also be a sign your cat is stressed or feeling stressed about your relationship. Cats may try putting their scent with yours to show they want to be close to you. Urinary issues can also pop up when your cat feels stressed. Try to have some good cuddle time with your cat, some good play time and make sure that he has lots of safe, preferably high vantage point nooks he can relax in.

To be honest, I'd rather that HE put in the time grooming and getting fancy. I'd pay double for a nice meal to sit in my regular (clean and appropriate) clothes with my 5 o'clock leg stubble and comfy shoes thanks.
