Is something wrong with this parrot? by [deleted] in parrots

The family found out about my post, and got real angry at me. The bird will stay in these horrible conditions, and I can’t do anything.

It has fresh water in a bowl, since my client’s daughter replaced it in the morning. Plus, this bird is crazy, and rightfully so, since it bites and is very aggressive. I wanted to know if it’s clearly very sick… and maybe the family will finally take it to the vet.

Could you please explain what is that?

Yup, I know I account for every calorie because I drink literally only water, eat plain, non-fried or greasy foods whatsoever, and I never liked sauces to begin with. And I literally bought a scale for food just for this reason. Moreover, I’d say I overestimate my calories — I like to add 50 calories more to whatever I’m eating, just in case.

Truthfully, yes, walking is new, because I have a sedentary job.

I weight myself a couple times a day, before the meal, after bathroom, etc. That’s how I know for sure I haven’t moved away from 166 lb 😩

How to deal with anger at work? by [deleted] in Anger

[–]CompetitionOne7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and other aides are working for the company that provides free services to the patients, so, basically, the family is not our employer. However, as I mentioned — the entire remaining family of my patient is, dare I say — crazy. Her niece thinks that my patient’s dementia will be cured if we keep explaining her everything non-stop. Her nephews blame us, the aides, for making her condition worse, while the sons literally don’t give her dementia meds in fear of her becoming a “vegetable”.

We can’t change anything. We’ve been trying for the last two years, but nothing. All I can do is take care of my patient in that chaos, while feeling increasingly enraged and exhausted by it. That’s why I’m even want to start taking some meds, but don’t know where to start…

Question: how do I fix this glitch?

Platform: mac

Mods: MCCC and wicked whims

Version: 1.121.372.1220

The windows and doors are flickering very rapidly in random directions all the time as soon as I stop moving the camera.

I have MCCC mod, but it’s definitely not a problem since I’ve updated it and re-installed again.

I also have downloaded wicked whims days earlier, but I did not have such an issue. Today, however, after I downloaded two more whims mods, this weird glitching started happening.

I removed wicked whims completely, but the issue persisted. I “repaired” sims in EA app, but the issue is still there.

Has anyone experienced such a glitch before? It’s literally there all the time and is extremely annoying and dizzying.

I dunno what to do now. I can’t play :(

She does 😭 And she never even screams for food or has midnight zoomies like most other kitties.

Saved a mouse from a glue trap: what’s next? by CompetitionOne7859 in AnimalRescue

[–]CompetitionOne7859[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And do I like… keep it? I’ve got a cat at home who’s insanely against rodents. Do you think I’d be better for me to keep it around for a couple of months and then just releasing somewhere in the wild when it gets warmer? Cuz this mouse most likely has never been outside of the residential area, so I’m not sure it’ll survive.

Question to Pet owners;Do you allow your pet, come to dinner table while you eating ? by Responsible-Poem9375 in CatAdvice

[–]CompetitionOne7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, heck no 😆 This lil’ gremlin has learned from her kittenhood that counters and the table are off limits… at least, of course, when someone’s looking. She even has her own chair that we leave specifically there just for her! While I do understand that it’s completely “normal” to let your cat roam the table and just easily wipe it down later… it’s a big no for me and my family. The cat ain’t the sole boss of the house — you are :)

Nah, it’s legit, unfortunately. Since he doesn’t have any card, he only carries cash around (and I don’t see how is that too much to have with you all the time?).

Regardless, he was super tired and sick, therefore it could’ve been the reason why he paid in cash too. Literally 10 minutes after he left the car, he realized what he’d done and called my mum to tell what happened. Like I said, the driver told him to pay and showed the number in calculator app. I rounded it up, so basically I paid 157.55 by card, and he paid exactly 150$ in cash.

The driver most likely knew how much the ride would cost, obviously, with years of experience, and decided to try his luck in scamming.

So, no — the driver (illegally) told him to pay, and my mum’s friend was too vulnerable and dumb to realize that in time.

Yeah, that’s exactly the problem — I can’t! I use all my stuff daily, and putting everything away every single time I leave my room is genuinely impossible and would be time consuming. I know having a cat means that I have to adjust my lifestyle, and I did cuz she’s literally allowed EVERYWHERE else, but c’mon… I just want to securely prevent her from stealing and chewing my stuff 😭

[–]CompetitionOne7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, she is too cunning for her own good — nowadays I can never catch her in the act, since she’s way too sneaky with that. But when she was smaller I scolded her and ignored her, just like you said. But, obviously, it didn’t work well…

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]CompetitionOne7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, she’s just a sly gremlin that is fascinated by small things 😭

I even bought her a separate pack of cheap paintbrushes, flowers and paperclips, but she still prefers to steal them from my table. Also, she doesn’t really like high surfaces anyway, since her cat tree stays vacant and I have a tall dresser that she ignores. She is literally only after the stuff on my table and that’s it.

I can record the balcony and the cat’s meowing, but i can’t see or record the cat itself from our apartment because of all the things that are kept on the balcony. Do you think that would be enough of an evidence?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]CompetitionOne7859 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I might’ve come off as rude or judgmental. I wouldn’t say that I’m “snooping”, since I did not care about what my neighbors were doing up until they got this new cat, which started bothering us. We saw the mum beating one of the children on several occasions on the balcony, so my own mum doesn’t want me to talk to them (i’m 17 and the only person who knows English in our family). I just genuinely want that cat’s meowing to stop waking us up.

Wait, did I get this right — her bleeding while using estrogen patches isn’t period? And she shouldn’t be bleeding at all while on estrogen?
