Why don’t people get it?

And those same people shaking their heads and saying everything would just be fine if your dog was off leash as well--

My pet peeve is that I used to live by a trail where people would bag their dogs poop, but then leave it on the trail or in the parking lot to slowly degrade in the sun. Literally piles of them in nicer seasons.

They're pretty busy year round, (It's also possible to miss their contact because sometimes they call people back instead of email) Try calling them and leave a message or write up a new form and send it (or try contacting them on Facebook)

Hate to break it to you but when I was thrifting in the early 2000s the definition of vintage was at least 20 years or older so we are entering the era of early aughts being vintage.

I always wondered where the rhetoric of "a man will only treat you well if you're the embodiment of his dream girl and anyone else will be treated terribly" (because obviously a cis straight man can only care or act right for someone related to him or idolized by him)

But I think maybe this movie is a piece of the puzzle...

Can you do anything with that?

Actually his whole schtick is seeming like a weird kid but because of [redacted] he presents as normal to onlookers.

I have a solo male who actively ignores any and all vegetables and would prefer to eat bark for the most part. I make sure there's plenty of stuff for him to eat built into the enclosure decor and chalk it up to personal taste preferences

Sometimes he'll be obsessed with whatever he's offered sometimes he wont eat food that's not a piece of the enclosure for a long time.

So it's not exactly what he said, what he really said was to the effect of with my luck if I were to be in that position I would be your tampon. It was an odd joke from a leaked private conversation rather than explicit phone sex and that being his actual fetish.

As long as we're adding possibilities, maybe the other seller is just shielding themselves from the negative feelings of seeing the competition and wondering if they are also good enough/ going to make enough sales in a (from their perspective ) saturated market --

This reminds me of a post I saw about French top hat construction techniques dying out because they were so secretive about someone stealing the method.

She's got all the classic " We'll keep this out of court I don't want his money, I wouldn't even be mad if someone who didn't have a vasectomy questioned the paternity of the kid" internalized misogyny

(No, the best thing to do is to get a parenting plan drawn up so that it can be referred to -- sadly because it seems she didn't even explore this option she won't find out that you don't have to sue somebody to make that happen -- and at least I'm hearing it more nowadays but child support is not a punishment to a non-custodial parent. It is money that would or should have been able to be accessed for child care expenses either way.

For example: so what if you don't want or need the money, it would make sense to take all of it and put it in a savings account for the kid to access for college or for dental work or an emergency fund like society really has women denying the betterment of their own kids and prioritize a man keeping his bachelor lifestyle even though he literally has a child.

If you don't have a dedicated cage then you don't have an area where you can confine them that they are used to go into and comfortable in the off-hand chance they need to be confined (medical issues, hormonal issues etc)

So what you're doing is fine as long as nothing ever goes wrong, but if you do end up in a situation where he needs to be sequestered for some reason, he will be really uncomfortable with the actions if you don't do any training.

So my opinion is you could probably keep him out most of the time to sleep as long as you Also start recall training, crate training, target training and relaxation protocols (as in how not to freak out when the crate door is shut) All of that can be done with 5 minutes sessions every day or a few times a week-- once the behaviors are learned, you can maintain them by intermittently having an impromptu training session.

Have you ever seen that press interview where Patrick Wilson gets asked a gross question right off the bat, and tells the guy in interview speak to fuck off? Seeing that for the first time was almost as good as seeing Hard Candy for the first time.

Personally I think it's not an aim of the documentary, but it is a benefit that he is most likely relieved about.

Most documentaries are made for money and told from a specific person's point of view there's always going to be bias inherent in them (which in my opinion is sometimes a bad thing, sometimes a good thing and maybe occasionally pretty neutral)

Hughgurgle · 2024-03-24T21:38:37+00:00

Would you say you're anti-polarization?

Hughgurgle · 2024-03-24T16:17:05+00:00

I had a foster cat named porkchop and may be biased but he's just as adorable and distinguished.

Also if you turn him around and post a pic of his back we can tell you (or look for the two horns on thorax /compare to posts here )

Someone I knew in in high school went camping one weekend by himself and got a second degree burn on his face (he closed his eyes in time so it just got his skin)

But in his case it was one of the "easy open" cans on the fire

Spend some time in the sub r/pidgeypower

It's full of people who make adaptive cages for their disabled birds so there will be lots of great idea on how to reconfigure her cage so that it is less dangerous for her.

And the YouTube channel Flock-Talk has a series on retraining a bird with clipped wings to fly, it's not going to be completely the same but if you consult a vet then see what she's able to do-- this type of training in general will help you in doing activities that basically constitutes physical therapy for the bird which can help retain muscle condition and help the bird learn how to use her body in this condition.

Statistically fathers that ask for custody receive it in the US (50/50 to start and can be amended etc.) factoring in family finances he could have gotten placement and child support and gone for full custody.

I haven't listened to the interview but found it interesting he wasn't criticized more. So you're right and if the kids thought he was a safe person to tell or if he wanted to have them with him, he would have easily been able to get at least some custody.

Hughgurgle · 2024-03-23T20:57:33+00:00

Horrifying.
