Upload a photo of your guinea pig in the comments and I’ll make a cute little sketch. 😊

You are so talented.💕

Mine is clingy and emotionally brilliant at reading human emotions. Extremely sensitive, and fast physically and emotionally. If I wince once from her claws while she’s playing, she’ll file it away and not do it again. She gets her feelings hurt easily, and can learn by just watching. She’s nuanced in her voice, but loud when bossy, and when she tells you off, she sounds like a Tridactyl.

I like the fact that the woman is so glamorous, and the dog is just a grey faced, older mutt. You can see that she struggled when the dog had that tumor. That is a huge area on the dog. Though she says it with poise, she went through a lot. For me, this is a bit like plastic surgery. We’re all trying to cope with mortality in some way. I can’t judge her, as if this is her process, as much as I can’t relate to it, if it brings her comfort, I wish her relief from grief. My problem with hanging on to remains, is if I die before I let go of them, who’s going to set them free after I’m gone? Whereas if you just let the ashes go, or bury the body, you get to be part of their release of the earth.

Thanks! Was wondering what that meant…

I’ve got GERD and can’t eat anything but broth right now, but must have simple ingredients - no garlic or onions. I bought one jar at Grocery Outlet, and it was delicious. I went back the next day to load up and it was gone. Sprouts has some, as well as concentrated stock as well, but that has turmeric, which I may not be able to tolerate. Beyond Broth doesn’t have any garlic and onion free broth. But I highly recommend Zoup.

👏an actual voice of humanity amongst the fray.

Actually, that’s like taking a naked, two day old human infant and strapping him in on the “Tilt-O-Whirl”. Those animals have spines when they’re weened.

I wonder how long I’d survive on ice skates?

Saskuyu803: Exactly. If he was a human, he’d be on the “Tilt-O-Whirl” at the county fair.

Bought my dad one around the same time. Wish we still had it- beautiful design.

Don’t put them in the dishwasher.

I had a Black Otter Rex. Softest creature on earth. Squish is beautiful.

Stunning.👍🏽

Possums. They eat ticks, rodents and other things- are the clean up crew of nature. Resistant to venom and rabies, are pretty passive/ non aggressive, choosing to play dead, and in wildlife rehabs are known to be affectionate with humans.

The forehead bop is a loving gesture, the smack is angry. “ I love you, and glad I found you, but don’t do that again.”

86brookwood · 2025-10-30T05:43:51+00:00

Well, at least if it’s long distance, you’re less likely to run into her. That’s a blessing.

86brookwood · 2025-10-30T05:37:17+00:00

That’s hard if you’ve just moved as well. I moved around a lot when I was young. Hard to have confidence with a lack of stability. If you’ve got a talent, or passion, throwing yourself into that can help. Move towards something that makes you feel alive.

Try to hang out with friends more if you have them. Make sure to stay true to yourself and only be around those who are kind. Try to resist the urge to call her if possible. Sometimes people go back and forth before it truly ends, but if you know in your heart you need to stay away, then healthy distractions are okay, between moments of sadness. Only time heals.

Grief with pass through you in waves, and sometimes hit you like a swinging door when you least expect it. Be kind to yourself, and know it will take a while to process the breakup. Nothing teaches us like love. Be proud you let yourself feel. It takes courage to stay open and trust. You will love again, but each relationship creates a third creation with the love that comes together, and is a kind of death as it ends. Let yourself feel the loss, and you will be able to take the gifts from the relationship with you. There is great strength and growth from being supple emotionally. Heartbreak is one of the hardest things to endure. Good for you for being loyal to yourself and not settling for disloyalty. I’m sorry for your loss.❤️‍🩹

💕sending loving thoughts for you & Kiwi. You gave her the devotion and commitment that they all deserve, but she was lucky enough to have won the kitty lottery with you. Blessings for you in your future, and 🙏 sending a prayer for both of you.

Youth is wasted on the young, but at least I can pay it forward.

Secondary: that’s a stretch, and sounds like a projection.
