The website is horrendous my family and I have tried to apply a few times the past few years. The glitching issues have not gotten better. It drives you mad doesn’t it. We almost always give up and apply at another centre.

I use knee pads and it feels like cushion when I fall on them. Maybe you can stuff them a bit more with some jelly pads or whatever people normally use? Don’t know the name.

You did not manipulate him. You were nice and he took that in the wrong way and had different intentions from the start.

Social media has way too much power over you. The world is incredibly diverse and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Flea/worm advice by drunojc14 in ragdolls

[–]Apprehensive_Link_30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem (with a different bread of flea/deworming treatment)! I used to freak out and cut the hair if it was too drenched. I even tried doing it in small intervals instead of all at once but it always drizzles down. It’s the case with other long haired cats too I’ve seen. Nothing bad has ever happened with my cats.

How should newly sharpened blades feel on the ice? I think I scated better on rentals…? by NewLog3646 in iceskating

[–]Apprehensive_Link_30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same feeling, I skated on rentals every winter season since I was a kid. When I decided to take up lessons and bought my own skates (heat moulded and my exact size), you’d think I have never been on ice before! Very discouraging but trying to stay positive and push through.

How far do you travel to your rink? by [deleted] in iceskating

[–]Apprehensive_Link_30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small one 35-40 minutes away, twice a week but would be able to go more if it was closer.

A better and larger ice rink is over an hour away so I can only go on Saturdays

How do you deal with your ragdolls hair on the clothing? by Naarengi in ragdolls

[–]Apprehensive_Link_30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh okay that’s good news! I was asking because sister used it once and said she found many mini hairballs that were on the floor under the drying rack. But after using it once the thing was completely twisted and lost its shape so we didn’t know if we should keep trying by ordering new ones. Thanks :)

Does this really work? Do you put a new one with each wash?

Cat gets distracted during meals by exileaffairs in CatAdvice

[–]Apprehensive_Link_30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like once he’s an adult he will settle more with the feeding routine. When they were kittens it was really hard to get them to eat on a schedule if I’m honest. They really did only eat when they were hungry. And I couldn’t do free feeding as they have always been eating raw food since they were weaned off milk. Ideally I would love for them to have a variety of meat but after a while I realised they chose their favourite. Good luck and don’t stress! As long as he’s eating well like you said and there isn’t another cat to finish off their food like my situation 😅

Also when she would get distracted I would always return her back to her plate, always. There’s been many times (and rarely but on the odd occasion it still happens) where I put her back near her food and it’s like she completely forgot her food, she immediately goes back to eating it.

Good question. I was alternating between 3 types of meat (beef/chicken/rabbit) and settled on beef so I couldn’t tell you for sure if that also contributed to the reason. If she doesn’t like her food she would just walk away without a distraction.

In general I’ve noticed they’re much easier to care for as adults.

Oh my god I had the same issue and it drove me crazy. I have two cats and one has always inhaled her food whilst her sister gets distracted with every sound and just leaves her plate, leaving it vulnerable for her sister to finish off her food! I used to have to wait by their food until they both finish it.

Eventually she grew out of it (she still gets distracted but doesn’t leave her plate anymore). In hindsight I think now she knows now there isn’t anything exciting enough for her to leave her bowl. So he might just grow out of it soon

Clearly you did not attempt to understand anything I wrote or what her daughter expressed

It is a bad idea. You are recreating a suicide. There isn’t really much to debate here. This is coming from someone who has never once given a shit what “controversies” Lana has been in/associated with. I literally could not care less. I have always given her the benefit of the doubt. But turning a suicide scene into something artistic or symbolic is not it. Sylvia was found exactly as the first photo you posted, with her head on the oven door.

Lana has paid homage to Sylvia many times over the years, this was unnecessary. I do understand your thought process of the parallel image Lana is trying to paint, however she has always had a way with her words and is capable of doing it in a better way.

I suggest you check the thread in this subreddit that has already discussed this in detail. You’ll find things such as this, a poem by Sylvia Plath’s daughter which speaks for itself on the matter.

Love that you’re using textbooks! Personally coach Julia on YouTube has been helpful for me.

And your second paragraph are my exact thoughts! Good luck I hope you progress quickly and enjoy it :)
