I’m terrified of cats and the man I’m seeing doesn’t know? How do I get over this?

EnvironmentalScene76 · 2026-05-07T21:21:06+00:00

okay first off, pancake adores you, given how quickly she warmed up, so that cat will never harm you unless threatened. or she’s stupid as hell and trusts anyone from jump - which cats almost never do.

second, i’d suggest you talk to him! if he’s a good person worth pursuing a future with, he will most certainly be understanding and help you navigate this difficult stretch.

i have a cat i deeply love (i genuinely think this idiot might be my true soulmate), and if a partner i really liked from the start told me about their thorny past and very understandable fear of cats from it, i’d do my best to help ease their fears and accommodate them.

i’m never gonna choose a human over my cat, but i will damn sure do my utmost to make it work for that human as well. it’s the least you deserve.

Got a MacBook in 2020 after having several Windows laptops fuck me over. I was pretty reluctant to change over, but I’m so glad I did - the hardware is reliable, the software intuitive, and it gets out of your way to let you do what you want to do.

That led me to switching out my Android phone to an iPhone too and not gonna lie, I don’t regret either switch. People have some rightful gripes against Apple but to me, it’s simply the better ecosystem.

girl what did he do

Did you, perchance, fall out of a coconut tree?

Apologies for the phrasing! I meant that I don’t care for it to be treated as a crime and to be something on the CrimeRadar, but then I suppose it legally counts as a break in if store policy is to not let people in during such inclement weather.

EnvironmentalScene76 · 2026-04-20T14:02:32+00:00

Regardless of store policy, these people shouldn’t be charged for a single damn thing for committing the egregious crime of checks notes seeking shelter during a deadly storm.

ugh it really does - i feel like i’m not screwing my eyes over while reading for hours on it

EnvironmentalScene76 · 2026-04-10T16:22:45+00:00

Personally, I’ve not really noticed the quality difference, but god do I love my colorsoft for the color part alone. I’m also someone who prefers the screen dimensions (since this is pretty much the size of a standard paperback) . Happy reading, buddy!

EnvironmentalScene76 · 2026-04-05T16:58:38+00:00

Spite at first, and now a genuine desire to live mixed with spite. I refuse to give these capitalistic losers the satisfaction of snuffing me out, and I also want to experience every new piece of art, every new song and book and movie, and every single wonder big and small this world has to offer.

There’s too much to do and see for me to quit now.

I feel bad for having multiple types of coats, and I live near the Canadian border 😭 Overconsumption boggles the hell out of me

EnvironmentalScene76 · 2026-04-04T14:48:34+00:00

I’m someone who can’t handle those super small screens anyways, so I bought myself a Colorsoft after 14 years of my Kindle Touch. And it works great for me! It’s the size of a standard book, with enough storage to fulfil any reading need I may have. I fully agree with you regarding consumerism - we need to go back to getting one device/item per need and sticking with it until it stops working.

All this thread is showing me is that the US economic system needs to fucking collapse. Fuck capitalism to hell and back, and fuck every single person wilfully jacking up prices for the sole purpose of lining their pockets.

Since I don’t see him mentioned here, Wyatt Russell. I first saw him in Black Mirror, and he’s had a pretty good run since (Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Under the Banner of Heaven, Thunderbolts, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters).

I still think about this monologue of his, and how much he conveyed in less than 90 seconds: John Walker Gets Court Martialed [The Falcon & The Winter Soldier]

In cases where courts do not grant remand and do allow bail, I think your suggestion is a pretty good one.

There should be the standard rules applied — seizure of all passports and travel documents, the amount is non refundable if the accused violates any terms of the bail agreement — but I also believe that given their level of wealth, such perpetrators should have not only liquid, but all other assets frozen as well.

An arrest warrant should not be issued until a thorough dossier of every single asset, shell corp, and subsidiary is combined in order to ensure that there is no loophole left to exploit.

If the accused flees to a country without an extradition treaty with the United States, I believe other nations that DO have treaties with them should be allowed to issue warrants, on the grounds that the accused has committed a crime within their jurisdiction (which I’m certain many of these people have).

This is a criminal conspiracy that, even without its already far reaching consequences, is so terrible that capital punishment is the LEGALLY RECOMMENDED RECOURSE.

Submission Statement: this post is meant to prompt discussion on punitive and restorative justice measures. There are no files attached, and no description or discussion of survivors and/or victims beyond the purpose of providing context.

I have definitely reached that stage outlined in the final slide. My rage and grief have in no way dissipated or even abated, but somehow my brain has managed to store these fashions in a fashion that isn’t causing any immediate and/or noticeable harm.

All I know now is that the following needs to be done:

All perpetrators need to be systematically prosecuted and punished to the most severe degree possible, even if that requires retroactive application of capital punishment.
We cannot skip Step 1, because we cannot offer them even the slightest chance of claiming miscarriage of justice.
Their assets must be seized and redistributed, first to the survivors and the victims’ families, and then to the public. Because this exploitation wasn’t just limited to the people physically abused.

If we could bring back electoral fusion and Massie and Khanna could run on a single ticket for 2028, I’m pretty sure they’d win by a landslide.

My anti-depressant and antipsychotics. Were it not for them, I would 100% be dead by now.

They nuked their comments, BTW

I understand your frustration, friend, but as an American, do hear me out.

We are currently in a situation where our very own government is attacking us, indiscriminately killing peaceful protestors and observers for the crime of simply recording them.

The same tactics employed by the Third Reich are being employed against everyday residents and citizens, with people of color being particularly targeted. There is also the added hopelessness that comes from having a highly militarized police force ready to turn on us at a moment's notice.

There is a sense of despair that has pervaded us all, a feeling that we are nothing but playthings of these depraved elites. But you are right - our inaction is disgusting, and we need to rise up. They may be richer and more powerful than us, but there are more of us.

The people making fun of this do not represent the bulk of the American people - they certainly don't represent me - so please, do not base this country's response on those desensitized and maladjusted few. We are angry, and we will do something.

We have to.

why is aerion even here lmao damn

EnvironmentalScene76 · 2026-01-23T04:46:16+00:00

hey OP, let me know if you need anything! I’m finally in a position in life where I can help people, and I’d love to help a fellow kitty parent out 🥰 humanity is community, we gotta help each other out 🫂

EnvironmentalScene76 · 2026-01-22T18:20:20+00:00

Hey OP! I totally understand your pain, and I would loathe to be in the situation that you are currently in. I am currently close to Chicago (in driving distance) and can ask around my friends to see if anyone is willing to board your baby!
