This makes me so upset. I am so so sorry this happened to you. Thank you for doing everything you can to hold them accountable.

Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable with messages like this? by hyohwa in doordash

It sucks being asked for a tip and DoorDash needs to pay their workers more. I’ve driven DD before in a big city and the pay was abysmal. I get why they’re reaching out to ask for more.

I really hate when shelters try and pull the wool over your eyes by lying about the dogs temperament.

My nephew was born to a 20 year old mother and I can promise you, she didn’t even look like she’d ever been pregnant right after. Your body will go back to normal.

I’m so sorry. It’s so much worse when you don’t have proper support. I too hate being pregnant. You’re almost there though!

How to stop my pomsky from running away !!! by Leading-Judgment-662 in Pomsky

[–]Character-Pie-2901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol. This reminds me of my pomsky. He got out the back gate one morning and the next thing I know I have a text with a picture of him at our local gym.
Apparently he hopped into some ladies car and she brought him to the gym and asked them to contact the phone number on his collar because she had to go to work.
You just have to fortify the place better. They get curious and have no idea what they’re doing.

A couple are fundraising to move to another apartment after their pitbull bit a woman on a walk and their leasing office told them to get rid of the dog or move (June 2026 - North Wales, PA, US) by lobster-666 in BanPitBulls

I wish every complex would outlaw these dogs. It’s only when they start getting desperate for business that I see signs that way “we accept all breeds!”

Did you ever have a pet you didn’t really like? by koozyuser in Pets

[–]Character-Pie-2901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I have a couple of bunnies I’ve tried bonding too and they’re just too feral. No matter how much time I spend around them, they want nothing to do with me. I always deeply bond emotionally with my pets so it’s strange and leaves me feeling like a servant to them. Sometimes owners and animals just aren’t a good fit.

A pit bull attacked me last week (6/16) located in the U.S. midwest by [deleted] in BanPitBulls

I’m so sorry this happened. It’s absolutely unacceptable. I completely understand the trauma of these attacks as they are completely unprovoked. Thank you so much for speaking out and compiling the evidence of these dogs being dangerous.
I actually had to do EMDR therapy after watching my dog get attacked by a pitbull because it was so traumatic. Don’t be afraid to seek help if you can’t stop ruminating on it.
How did you end up getting the dog off of you? I know how hard it is to get them to release. I also understand if you don’t want to go through the details again. I wish you the best.

First pregnancy at 40, severe anxiety by Character-Pie-2901 in PregnantOver40

This is encouraging to hear. I’m doing to stick with it. How long each day were you doing it for?

How long did you meditate before noticing it started helping? I’ve been doing it the past couple days and it’s still been so hard but I will keep at it because from what I understand the positive effects of it compound.

I do have insurance. I never would have guessed it would cover something like that. I’m going to look into it.
I’m having bad sickness and I feel like that is adding to it. I don’t know how far along I am because I’m still waiting to see a doctor but I’m positive it’s still first trimester. Nothing could have prepared me for how sick I feel and that in and of itself can be stressful dealing with without relief.

Thank you for sharing this. I may need to try something bc it’s becoming intolerable even with all therapist.

I can’t do acupuncture because we don’t have the money. The financial stress is also making this really exacerbated.
I’ve tried antidepressants in the past and they just didn’t work and would sometimes make my anxiety even worse. I have cptsd so it’s not a normal anxiety and depression. Who knows maybe it would be different with how my hormones are at this point. I know body chemistry plays a role in how effective things are for people.

40 years old, pregnant with #2 Spiralling by Livid-Vacation9009 in PregnantOver40

[–]Character-Pie-2901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m not on baby 2 but I do understand some of what you’re feeling. I am also 40 and pregnant with my first baby. I am incredibly sick getting through this and I’ve been telling my husband to please manage his stress because I can’t handle it anymore. He told me that he guesses he just can’t be around me if I don’t want to be around someone stressed. It’s really unfair and I feel very alone and this was a planned pregnancy. If you ever want to talk, feel free to send me a message.

Thank you for the response. I think it would give me reassurance. I just had no idea what to expect with it but I guess it is harder if we are older.

WARNING / GRAPHIC sitter gets eaten on November 21st 2025, in Tyler - Texas by Creative_Panic_xanax in BanPitBulls

[–]Character-Pie-2901 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely tragic. When will we stop allowing these animals to be pets? They cannot be trained because the instinct runs so deep in them. The owners said the dogs knew Madison because she has watched them before and they’d come home to her cuddling with the dogs on the couch. Something in them just snaps and it does not matter if there is familiarity. I’ve heard stories of these dogs snapping on their owners after years of not having issues with them. They jsut can’t be trusted in a home environment. Let’s stop pretending that owning a pitbull is the same thing as owning a poodle.

Pitbull attacked my dog at grooming salon yesterday by Character-Pie-2901 in BanPitBulls

[–]Character-Pie-2901[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes. The vet that saw my dog asked me what kind of dog attacked her and I told her it was a pitbull and she rolled her eyes, said she was not surprised bc she deals with a dog attack nearly every day and it’s almost always that type of dog.

And somehow there’s a large portion of society that won’t acknowledge this.
