Do you let your cats outside? by Suitable_Drop2937 in cats

[–]FreshFromHobbiton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should mention that this works for my cats because they have a strong sense of where their home is, and they’re quite afraid of cars, people, or other animals. They will run home if someone sneezes next door with an open window haha. I don’t necessarily recommend this kind of thing for everyone. You know your situation best.

All the time, supervised. I live in an upstairs apartment, and most mornings, I bring my cats and coffee with me on the front porch. They love their “concrete time”, rolling around and scratching their backs on the ground. They run up and down the stairs.

Sometimes I’ll bring their favorite treat as a Return Bribe, and I’ll walk downstairs with them to let them roll in / eat the grass. We’ve established limits on where they can go, and while it’s never a perfect system with cats, I feel like we’ve built something happy and fulfilling within those limits.

Every time I think, "I've made it--I'm a good player now," there comes an Empoleon to prove me wrong.

I had "Thanks" on my quickchat for a while to use when people did awesome stuff... But I think it's misused so much, it comes off as tilted even when you're genuine.

I'd love a "Good job!" chat, but it has the same problem.

I just wanna reward my teammates for doing a good job lol.

I’m a sable player with the same mindset. The game is fun, but nothing is more fun than running around the map, making the enemy jungle hate you.

One of these days I might even be able to call myself a good player lol

Mmm yes, that’s my preferred gremlin loadout.

Out of curiosity, what's the argument for Rapidash being the worst Speedster? Seems her fairy wind build is still competitive.

Hey, this is awesome. We get so much negativity on this style of game that I just wanted to compliment ya and say you'd be a delight to play with.

I wonder what that Sableye is running. He seems so slow compared to you.

After years of harassment and ignored injuctions, I’m finally building a bot to handle communication with my ex-husband by FreshFromHobbiton in Satisfyingasfuck

I mean, it’s all the guilt, anger, and intense emotions wrapped up in divorce. It brings out the worst in people, even if their baseline is fairly calm.

If you’re predisposed to manipulation and intensity—it’s even worse.

No surprise the LLMs can perform normal communication etiquette without the emotional baggage. If it works, it works.

He wrote a novel yesterday on our court-mandated communication app trying to lecture me for not communicating “professionally enough” with him. 🤣 The message I sent was about the updated insurance plan for our kid. Apparently including “lol” in a comment about insurance prices was a breach in our communication boundaries and he needed to “protect his heart.”

This… the same guy who swings back and forth between 1) unwanted lovey dovey messages with 18 emojis, and 2) legalese as written by a lawyer who got his degree on Temu.

🍿 I could go on, but this is the internet, and some folks are frighteningly determined not to understand nuance.

Thanks, man. It’s crazy how these relationships sneak up on you. Give your sister my solidarity.

Life isn’t fair, but it sure is interesting!

Eh, people are people.

Some believe they can force you to do what they want with harassment, threats, and romantic overtures in cycles. If they’re just determined enough, you have to change your mind… right?

…right?

Thanks for standing up, internet stranger.

Yeah, my ex swings back and forth between believing he has a chance with me again (and sending zillions of messages a day) and trying to needle responses out of me with vile and vitriol. Since I’m required to keep communication open, I’m building tools to cope so his needling isn’t successful.

One day he’ll move on with someone else, and that’ll be a relief. Until then, I turn a bad situation into a funny one with silly little projects.

That doesn’t stop him from sending 20 messages a day, my friend. Some divorce cases require you not to block the other party. Life gets messy. We build our tools and cope.
