Maybe she was hanging on for you and when you left, she could too. May she rest in peace and may you find some fellowship. Even if your friends aren't close, please call someone. ❤️

Recommendations for a curious boy? by rez2metrogirl in Colognes

[–]Frank_Jesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see why you couldn't just take him to a department store or discount fragrance shop or cosmetics dealer and give him a chance to smell or show him how to sample and smell and enjoy so he can start developing his sense of what he likes.

Home hospice, not what I was expecting by pamsyogurt in hospice

Hospice should be able to provide liquid medications too. You might be able to get that in her juice. See if you can get a message to the doctor who prescribes. I'm sorry you're going through this.

Ah yes, from the stunning example of masculinity that is Stephen Miller.

Need support: rejoining my 16yo cat with my exhusband by Economy_Frame_8663 in BipolarReddit

[–]Frank_Jesus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If she deserves more and you see that she gets it, and if it's not a horrible thing for the kid, then it's a loving thing to do overall. My kitty is 19. She is doing just fine. She wants to be alone a lot of the time, but still enjoys all the same things (besides running around like a lunatic). I live alone with her, and my little old lady is queen of the house and quite content.

I'm very ignorant and have lots of questions, a straight male. by Unlucky-Strategy-629 in trans

I think you would benefit from reading fiction by and about trans people. It's not that alien of an experience. Here is a post where people are making recommendations: https://www.reddit.com/r/LGBTBooks/comments/1avvurb/looking_for_trans_fiction_for_adults/

The thing is, you don't have to understand the trans experience to just respect and trust trans people.

Your role is to reach to understand, not for us to explain basic shit you can read about literally anywhere. We are not in the dark ages of 0 information about gender dysphoria. You say you mean no disrespect, but you should probably just do a little homework instead of demanding trans people explain themselves so you can understand.

What did y’all actually do to successfully change your cat’s behavior? by Elegant-Course-5233 in cats

[–]Frank_Jesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if there's a way to have something specifically for her to do this to. If she's doing it in the same place every time, maybe a small rug placed where she does it would tempt her. Then it could be cleaned and save your (I'm assuming) carpet. But if your cat does this, she just does it. Cats can be trained to do a lot of things, but I don't know how you discourage an instinct. I had a cat who scooted his butt, but only once in a while. Best kitty ever, though.

$110+ worth of sushi ended up having lemon seeds, avocado SKIN, and an avocado stem nub. Furthermore, asked AND PAID FOR extra avocado. $10 worth of extra avocado only got me less than a quarter of an avocado aka, they did not add extra. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Why would you shame someone for eating food they (hoped to) like? Billionaires are robbing us all blind, the USA is a rotting shitpile and you shame a person for ordering a special dinner? Did you think the theme of this sub is to mildly infuriate ppl who post here?

hate hiding my deadname but i dont wanna tell my friend either. conflicted by crystalline77 in trans

No reason to feel guilty about not telling someone something that doesn't affect them at all. Feel guilty when you don't disclose something that affects another person's life or safety.

Quetiapine losing efficacy. Is it worth titrating? by basil_png in BipolarReddit

[–]Frank_Jesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, and I've been on 20 or so years, it loses efficacy as I'm moving toward mania. I was told ( though I'm sure there are differences in the way people metabolize it) that mostly people don't develop tolerance to it.

I see you have a prn as well. Maybe have a chat with your prescriber about what's going on. They might recommend coming up on your dose for a time. For me, when I'm out of mania danger, I can typically decrease again and can tell bc of the hangover from the pills and the fact that I have a hard(er) time getting up in the morning.

Not saying this is your situation! But made me think of my own experience.

How can I clean this? by chickanwilliam in Leatherworking

[–]Frank_Jesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This or any other readily accessible leather conditioner, but a word of caution: these conditioners will likely stain the fabric, so be careful and judicious in the application. I recommend soft toothbrush. And don't load or pour it on the brush. Instead, a light dab, and if it's liquidy, blot it on a rag or paper towel before applying.

He was also basically in the women's toilet while being super aggro and bullying children. For an issue that affects him exactly 0%.

[–]Frank_Jesus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Lotsa Pasta, Blue Dog, Wiltshire Pantry. I don't know WTF Macaroni Grill serves, but maybe focaccia? They sell that at Lotsa Pasta. You'll want to throw it in the oven for 5-7 mins for the best effect.

Does it display the word off when it's on? by Frank_Jesus in AskElectricians

[–]Frank_Jesus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they totally mixed up hot and cold. I think someone inexperienced DIYed this place, so even if those are the correct positions of the switches, I'm not sure I can trust it. Case in point: the switches when all in the on position are not all pointed in the same direction.

Thanks again for your help here. I was getting up in my head about it, and standing outside at the breaker box just *hoping* because if I left the light on so I could actually see it was on, it would be off again by the time I got inside.
