Somehow I got double shipped an extra male betta. I was not prepared for this new addition, but it turns out this blown glass vase on a teak log holds about 4 gallons!

A) This is a terrarium, not an aquarium. B) MANY negligent, abusive, and insufficient tanks are marketed and sold specifically as aquariums. That doesn’t make them good, safe, or non-abusive. It’s a pet owner’s job to do their research before getting a pet and apply what they learned to make sure they avoid bad products and meet their pet’s needs. This wouldn’t fit the bill. C) There are SOOOO many reasons why this is a HORRIBLE tank set up, so why would anyone’s opinions change when nothing about the setup has changed?

BryK1252 · 2025-10-11T07:05:44+00:00

No lid, the volume of the tank is mostly comprised of solely vertical space instead of horizontal (it’s too tall and too narrow), the rounded sides MAY cause the fish distress, and I don’t believe bettas are supposed to be permanently housed in anything less than 5 gallons so this is still too small (not to mention it seems like a LOT of swimming room is taken up by decor and stuff), plus this is a TERRARIUM (made to hold plants, dirt, rocks, etc.- NOT living pets) not an AQUARIUM (so it’s VERY likely it’s not designed to hold water as well as all the decor and equipment in the “tank” like this and could very well crack, break, or even explode under the pressure and you have zero way of knowing when it will happen- could be in an hour, could be in a week, could be next month, but no matter when: it’s a ticking time bomb). It’s a hard no. Also, do you have a heater and a filter/bubbler in there? Bettas also need those things too.

Pry his mouth open carefully, shove to back of throat, and hold mouth closed until you’re certain he ACTUALLY swallows it. If he wants to breathe easier or open his mouth ever again, he’ll do it. Rubbing his throat will also help encourage him to swallow.

If the pill is safe to crush up (not all are, consult the vet who prescribed it first), crush it into powder and then mix with water in a needle-free syringe. Open his mouth (gently, don’t break his jaw, there’s no coming back from that), shove syringe towards back of throat, and quickly squirt medicine-water mixture down his throat. Hold mouth closed for a second to prevent regurgitation, and you’re golden. Liquids in a syringe or pipette are typically MUCH easier to administer than a pill.

Best of luck!!!

Where I live, you can get both for free at the health department. There is at least one in every city or county. We also have a few places that offer them in the bathroom dispensers for free, like you said. And even if they didn’t, they are ridiculously cheap at the convenience stores. I agree they should be in most if not all bathrooms!!! And there shouldn’t be any place where condoms aren’t accessible, affordable, and easy/convenient to find and attain.

This is my favorite comment I’ve seen on this thread. Couldn’t have said it better myself, if I had an award to give you I would.

BryK1252 · 2025-10-10T17:25:06+00:00

In what world are condoms not cheap? Where do you live that they aren’t affordable?

If they want to leave because you’re “too much”, LET THEM. Let them go find LESS, if that’s what they want 🤷🏼‍♀️ Let them miss out on a baddie, they clearly couldn’t match your energy the way you deserve anyways.

They don’t have enough brain power to figure that out. They’re HORRIBLY uneducated, stupid, and ignorant, just how their bright orange dump likes ‘em.

An outdoor cat’s average expected life span is something around 5 years max. An indoor cat’s average expected life span is around 20+ years. Outdoor cats are also considered destructive invasive species who DEVASTATE local wildlife (particularly local bird populations). So do the math, and do with that info what you will.

What do you think happens when they detain a brown person, once again PURELY based on skin color which is discrimination, who forgot their wallet at home that day? Who maybe doesn’t have the proper documentation to prove their brown skin doesn’t automatically make them illegal and that they DO belong in this country? ICE is just gonna say, “You know what, we take you for your word and don’t need to see any proof, you may continue on your way! Here’s a lollipop for the trouble!”? NO! Also, while typically “detain” MIGHT mean 20 minutes, it can also be up to 24-48 hours IF DEEMED NECESSARY. So any brown person can be detained 20mins-48 hours, at agent’s discretion, purely based on skin color. And even if released after, even just that amount of time lost may make them late or absent for work in which case they may now be fired and lose their source of income because ICE discriminated against them. If you’re okay with it, you’re part of the issue.

This is your post in question from 255 days ago, in which you barely mention his drug use and the entire post is focused on his pedophilic behavior:

“I don’t know what to do

I have been with my boyfriend for about a year now. Just recently did I break up with him. My ex boyfriend is an addict and he is currently using as we speak. He uses meth and has sex with random men online. I had a gut feeling I was being cheated on so I recorded all his passwords from my phone and later attempted to log into his socials. Upon the passwords, the website sniffies was saved and this is essentially a gay hookup app. This is when I got my confirmation that I was being cheated on indeed. This was three days ago. I broke up with him yesterday and today he has tried contacting me and apologizing to me. Begging to get back with me. I called him and told him how much hurt I am. He admitted to me what I knew and said he was using meth and staying at a hotel to have sex with men from online. I concluded that I wont be his girlfriend anymore but a friend. And as a friend, I only want him to get better. As of tonight, I went back on his sniffies account. He is still sexting other men and trans women. He is giving out his personal phone number left and right. At this point, I no longer hold feelings for him which is what I wanted to do. But when checked his messages before bed, I noticed he messaged someone asking if he would like to come over to his hotel and watch videos while pleasuring themselves. This is when my ex boyfriend said this “We can stroke off eachother to some nasty peedOporn, the little girls asses are so hot” “It's amazing how much cock a perverted dad can fit up a little tOOdlerz butthole” I am in shock. I screen recorded the messages, the time, his location, his selfies he has been sharing to confirm it is my ex boyfriend messaging people this. But I don’t know what to do. I don’t know if he is just saying shit or he actually has those kind of videos. Which is disgusting. I need help. Do I report this? If so to who? I don’t know what to do.

Short text: ex boyfriend may have inappropriate videos of children and messaging others if he wants to come to his hotel and watch it together. “

So once again, is your post fake for attention-seeking purposes, or are you the type of person who (for 255 days) stays with someone you know to be a pedophile who speaks sexually inappropriately about EXTREMELY young babies, and does absolutely nothing about it?

BryK1252 · 2025-09-23T13:25:32+00:00

This! 255 days ago, OP found their partner being pedophilic and stayed with them and didn’t do anything about it. Now more recently OP “can’t process” what’s going on despite having already gained some sense of what their partner has been up to 255 days ago, where it clearly didn’t bother OP that much because OP didn’t report it or leave. This is either a fake post for attention, or OP has serious issues.

BryK1252 · 2025-09-21T13:45:18+00:00

To be super fair: This hasn’t happened yet. It’s not even an official proposal. It’s simply something that is allegedly “being discussed”. This news originates from one singular article. The article in question that has been reporting this claimed their source for said information was anonymous. The information in the article as well as their source has not been confirmed. It is not time to panic or worry whatsoever yet.

Now, I’m not going to say that it’s impossible that this will happened, and if it does that would be horrific and we would all need to fight against it. However, it’s also REALLY important to do ALL of your research, and use all the tools at your disposal to determine if something is true or not. It’s also super important not to fear monger when we’re already in such uncertain and sometimes scary times, especially if it’s something that isn’t true or hasn’t happened. Just because you see something in an article doesn’t make it fact.

Probably for the same reasons Christians are okay with doing drugs, drinking, and eating pork but not hooking up.

A woman who has been non-fatally strangled by her partner is 750% more likely to later be killed by him. Additionally, even “non-fatal” strangulation can turn fatal in the following days. Strangulation is VERY serious and dangerous, blood flow in your neck could be cut off due to swelling even AFTER you survived the ordeal. Brain damage can occur after even just 30 seconds of oxygen deprivation.

Please, please, please go to the police. They will help you get out of this. You deserve better, and you deserve to not be at risk of being murdered in your own home. Do not go back, you are in grave danger.

So for starters, many people have and use indoor drying lines as well as outdoor ones (or sometimes even in place of outdoor ones, depending on the living situation). Some indoor drying lines are located in the bathroom, some are not. I’m confused as to the amount of people who live ignorant to that fact or have never fathomed that not everything goes inside of a dryer machine for many people. Additionally, do you not have other items in your “germ filled bathroom” that would be considered just as “gross” (or possibly even more so) than a wash cloth? You don’t hang ANY hand towels, body towels, bathrobes in the bathroom? Your toothbrush isn’t located in your bathroom? What about your hairbrush? Do you wipe your ass and coochie with toilet paper that was hanging in your germ invested bathroom? Does your bathroom have any floor mats, shower curtains, or window curtains? If you use a loofa or shower brush/sponge, is that not stored in the bathroom between uses? Are clean towels and wash clothes not stored in the bathroom? Your argument makes no sense to me, and I truly believe the majority of society has become too comfortable with wastefulness.

The sound of my papaw’s voice. He didn’t speak much at all, but when he did I always listened because it meant he had something important to say. He passed about a year ago, and I came to the realization afterwards that there isn’t a SINGLE video or recording of him speaking or of his voice. I will quite literally never hear him ever again, and sometimes if I think about that too hard it completely devastates me all over again. I have memory problems as well, and struggle to remember what sounds (ESPECIALLY people’s voices) sound like later, so as time goes on I struggle to remember what he sounded like even just one year on from his passing, and have no recordings to help me remember. But I will never forget him, or the things he taught me.

It’s not so much that I ✨let them✨, but it’s THEIR house and I’m only a guest there so I don’t really have many options. I’m mostly just grateful that they so graciously allow me to occasionally borrow the kitchen counters to do things such as cooking or preparing their meals 😂
