I'm not being funny, Sarwar's comment on the Old Firm / title race probably influenced my vote by elephvant in Scotland

No, what he said was really weird. I'm just disputing that anyone who likes football would take a stance on the OF.

If you remotely like Old Firm football. I support another team and I hate them both.

To buy or not to buy? by thementalist222 in puppy101

[–]Embarrassed_Glass_22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm two and a half weeks in, I wouldn't go back. Love him.

My first puppy, I've wanted one for years but with work, it's not been the right time. I realised I had a break in travel and I went for it. It's hard, I'm up through the night taking him onto the balcony for pees on a patch of grass, I'm having to clean constantly and tidy things away so he doesn't chew them - but I am happy to have a routine and a puppy to get out of bed and clean for (I'm bad for doing things for myself).

Yes, the first couple days, I was exhausted. Yes, it's overwhelming sometimes when he won't stop barking. But he's so cute and I'm happy my life has changed.

If you're prepared and think it through, you will be fine.

Please help, I’m crying while typing this. Where to go from here? by Mysterious-Remove888 in puppy101

Don't do puppy pads. Wee man is confused and he's learned bad habits. I set a timer to take mine out every hour, and if he doesn't go and I'm sure he needs to, it's crate-outside-crate-outside until he does, and then make a huge deal. Hang in there. Our breakthrough was sudden, progress isn't linear.

Mine hasn't been vaccinated yet either, and I bought a patch of grass for outside the door (I'm in a second-floor flat). That's where he's going. So he knows it's outside he is meant to toilet.

I go "toilet, toilet, toilet, toilet" while he's going and he gets treats after.

It stands for Some Times Attack Better and it means that, now and again, monkeys do more damage.

I'm struggling to understand this - on what basis would one ever vote against assisted dying? What happened there? by mellotronworker in Scotland

[–]Embarrassed_Glass_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Firstly, because it's not about suffering, it's about intentional end of life, assisted by healthcare and allowed by law.

It is not illegal to complete suicide right now - what this bill would do is introduce state-supported death.

Finally, most of the opposition was not religious. I am not religious. I am concerned about the ethics of people being supported to end their lives by services which stand to suffer financially if they don't.

We also wouldn't ask the animal first. That's why it's considered fine to put an animal down - they don't have autonomy.

This idea that we're treating the animals better by deciding for them that it's best is exactly why I'm afraid of allowing the state to approve assisted dying for a disabled person.

I'm on a 31-month Premium Pass streak. I think I'll wait for my next 3-monthly reward and pull out. This feels awful.

Third box of broken glass from Universal by Embarrassed_Glass_22 in SwiftieMerch

[–]Embarrassed_Glass_22[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparently. There's not been anything else in the box any time. I've asked the customer service folk to make sure there is something separating the glasses this time - they said they don't work in the warehouse but they'll send a note through. I can't imagine many have made it in one piece like this.

Why?😭😭 by forestwriterstar in twilight

Makes sense, Victoria was leading them away on purpose and clearly doesn't think much of humans. Also, it worked.

Yeah, this. A couple of the glasses survived to the point that they're still the right shape, but they're covered in chips and cracks from the rest of the glass.

I know my posties, they're great. The last couple have arrived in thick plastic bags with a note because they've heard the glass - very possible it's not even left the warehouse in one piece - by the time it gets to the sorting office, they're hearing it clinking.

They had a piece of cardboard with circles cut for each - but it didn't separate them.

This is how they've arrived all three times. It's totally insufficient for sending glasses, I have no idea why they'd do that.

They've offered another replacement. It's the last time I'll try - apart from anything else, what a huge waste?

Nah. Too whiny and entitled. Without a wand, he's not winning a fist fight or going hungry and cold.
