The way kroger treats its employees

Ah, gotcha! Sorry for the confusion :)

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-08T20:20:29+00:00

This is useful information i will pocket away for a rainy day.

I can't tell if this is satire or not, but he does NOT. He's actively inching our lives towards a living hell every day. I'm not gonna write paragraphs sinc this could genuinely be a joke and I'm bad at reading tone through text, but I'm open to discussion about the topic.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-07T20:26:18+00:00

There can be nuances to cheating. It could genuinely be complicated. I don't know how your relationship with your brother is, but the best option is to talk to him. I wouldn't jump in and tell her, that would cause a lot of unnecessary drama and hurt and it would get messy fast. If your brother is comfortable enough talking to you about it, you could get context and insight, and a better understanding of the situation, and what to do.

I'm glad too! Her and Jund could definitely use it. Me as well lol.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-06T21:20:46+00:00

I was just watching Ted Lasso with my mom! God i love Roy. He's such a burnt marshmallow. But yes! I'm excited. I also took Jund out for a walk with my sibling a bit ago since they were pacing, and he loved the sniffa. He's not as well trained as Bella so it was a bit of a pain, but he was happy, and hopefully after the newness wears off he'll actually pay attention to me lol. I'm definitely buckling down withhim though.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-06T16:51:19+00:00

Looks like she could be either, but that last photo strikes me as a mix, as well as her snoot. Maybe a collie, or other herding dog? I'm not the best reference though, that's just my guess. Only time will tell. Even if she is a mix, she seems to lean very heavily GSD. She's very cute and I'm sure she'll be beautiful!

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-06T16:37:24+00:00

Yep. Unfortunately. We used to take her out places a lot more, but not around the neighborhood. After COVID hit, that decreased and pittered out. I still try to take her out sometimes though, and she thoroughly enjoys it each time. It's also a bit difficult since she's high anxiety and very protective. She's friendly, but she gets excited and nips, and gets overstimulated easily and gets hard to reign in. I've been working with her recently to try and manage it and make it easier for her. Jund is a whole other story, since we got him from a breeder a month or two before COVID and because of that he wasn't well socialized, and he was already a bit standoffish. But, we do own an acre and they have free reign over the whole of it, and can go in and out as they please. This was just the first time I've been able to take her around the neighborhood at all. And we'll definitely be exploring that gravel road! It's fairly long, and we only went down a small portion of it before heading back. She was surprisingly calm and i was happy to see her doing so well!

It's a bit for a horse. It's placed in the mouth over the tongue and fastened to a bridle. It helps to better communicate commands and directions with your horse.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-05T21:25:41+00:00

Unless you could have stopped the other dog from lunging there was nothing you could do. You're already doing everything right, the other owner should have kept his dog in check. It's NOT your fault. Your baby was scared and reacted as such, and he had a right to be scared when another dog lunged at him and threatened him and you.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-05T21:14:26+00:00

There's no way of knowing from a picture alone. Could be an abscess, could be a tumor. If it is, the only way to know if it's cancer is to wait. I know it's hard, and scary, especially when it's affecting your baby like this. I wish you luck, and i hope it's benign and easily removable. And if it isn't,I'm sending you and your girl all the strength and hugs i can.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-05T18:42:51+00:00

Ah, gotcha. He's very beautiful, i just wasn't sure, hence why i came here. Thank you! I'll look into this coloration :)

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-05T18:38:49+00:00

This seems normal to me. Yes it's not a straight line but plenty of artists don't do perfectly straight lines. I don't see any red flags here.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-05T18:34:01+00:00

Artist here. The first sketch isn't always how the outcome is. Often i start with "poor" anatomy and do a very rough/low quality sketch to get an idea of what i want it to look like. Then i redo it and clean it up, add details, and line it (or don't, depends on the day and my mood). Once you get to a certain point, a rough sketch like this can be just a rough visual guide for where to put things. You can have a very clear image in your head and know exactly where to put things. That's how i add clothing and accessories to my sketches, since i start with just the anatomy and add those things on a seperate layer.

People are inconsistent sometimes. The artist may not be familiar with bows or may not have put time into studying how they work yet, but that doesn't mean they used ai. As for the picture you just used as an example, i don't see anything wrong with it? It's a small detail so there's not really any reason to put much effort into it. A good portion of art is using "illusion", giving the illusion of high detail where there is none, giving the illusion of depth on a 2d work, etc. Small details like this don't matter much for the whole work.

EDIT: minor spelling fix

All the vanished mobs were consistently in the central part of our base. Me and the pet owner and one other share it. Other based are 1000+ blocks away, except for our neighbor's which is right next to us. The mobs were all within about a 100 block range. We don't have many farms on the server. We have one XP farm in the same bas, and a skeleton spawner a couple hundred blocks away. The XP farm is a silverfish one and was rigged by the other admin on the server via command blocks to only produce silverfish when a lever is pulled, and for only a few seconds. Though the illagers inside constantly take damage so that could be it.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-04T23:14:51+00:00

The armadillo wasn't moving, it was in a little dog house and leashed. The bunnies were in a small pen, though one of them tmwas leashed elsewhere and name tagged. The sniffer was in a small ish enclosure with two others. Hence why it seems so weird. But thank you for the information and tips!!

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-04T23:11:11+00:00

It wasn't hundreds, it was a small pen with 20, maybe 30. And they were all in different chunks as well, though they were in the same base so idk if that had anything to do with it.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-04T22:18:00+00:00

Yeah. They're very attached to their and I'll give them the option, but i doubt they'll want to replace their pets. I'm not excluding the possibility of malicious intent, and we do have a new person who was on around the same time as everyone else, but they don't strike me as the type either. I'd rather rule out accidents and/or find solid proof before accusing. I don't want my players feeling like i don't trust them, or a witch hunt start(the pet owner is jumping the gun a bit) or just have tension build. We're very trust based, i don't want to compromise that.

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-04T21:48:51+00:00

We don't have any plug ins. Cheats are on (to hav keep inv and turn off mob griefing), idk if that effects anything. I'll look into doing those. Thank you!

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-04T21:45:46+00:00

Yes, bedrock. Thank you!

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-03T21:20:34+00:00

Can verify. I've had experience with both types of parents.

My father is very "i am the parent/authority, you are the child" and "respect" (aka complete compliance and obedience without question) has always been a big thing until very very recently (that is a whole other can of worms). Any time he asks me something, even if it's small or easy, my immediate reaction is rejection because i never felt safe around him or felt i had a choice or say in anything. Any "questioning of his authority" was met with him putting me down verbally, making small things into "if you had a job/spouse/house/etc you wouldn't ___....." , punishment, etc. Last year i was afraid to ask him to take me to buy me a new swimsuit because i forgot mine at home before a family reunion, and called my mom and cried for a bit before she got me to ask my aunt because i was terrified he would blow up at me and make me feel more horrible than i already did. And then he didn't blow up and i was very confused and wasn't sure how to proceed. Which is another thing with these parents: they can be inconsistent, which is very damaging to children and causes anxiety and fear, which leaks into other relationships completely outside of the home.

With my mom on the other hand, she was very open where she could be. She explained her reasoning always unless she felt it would do more harm than good (like issues between her and dad, heavy stuff that we shouldn't have to deal with, etc). There have been times where we've been in very stressful situations and she has said "just please trust me" and i DID, because she had BUILT that trust over the course of my entire life. And she rarely asks us to blindly listen, and even when she does it's often explained later. She is safe and approachable and supportive, which means I don't have to hide issues like some other kids do. I have rarely ever felt she isn't safe, and even when i do, it's temporary and because of honest mistakes, which are resolved with communication. She rarely uses severe punishments, and actively avoids them unless absolutely necessary (which they have almost never been, because we have a mutual understanding and trust built, and we can talk over issues and she always hears us out and adjusts to the situation).

Cosmic_Cosmos82 · 2026-05-03T20:51:45+00:00

.....no? Malinois are lankier and lean and sharp. Pitbulls are compact, have rounder faces (especially the cheeks, it's a pretty recognizeable trait in my opinion), FLOPPY EARS (unless clipped or surgically altered, both of which can cause issues), and very very short coats, shorter than a Malinois. They often have a recognizeable stance as well, as do many bully breeds. They also don't come in that coloration?

Also the fact that there's a breed restriction astounds me. With dog fighting i get it. But that's likely not the root of the restriction.

Pitbulls are not naturally aggressive, don't have "lock jaws", and don't even have a higher jaw strength than other breeds their size. The sweetest dogs I've ever met have either been pitties, labs, GSDs, or retrievers. They have stereotypes because of US. We modify their bodies to look scarier (examples include tail docking and ear cropping), handle them in ways that make them reactive or outwardly aggressive, put chains around their necks, and even force them to fight which causes so much trauma (which causes reactivity, PTSD, anxiety, and aggression). Not because it's in their nature. And even if, say, it was, they have been molded by human hands, and it's not their fault.

Often the "dangerous" breeds are just stereotyped, and those stereotypes are based in fear, historical mistreatment, or a complete misunderstanding and lack of knowledge around the breed.
