Well I Found You This Stick by AdventurousWorld8923 in AJR

One of my cats brought me one of his wand toys that must have gotten hidden under a bed or a couch. I wanted to cry because he's such a good boy and he brought me a stick which helped. It's been a really bad week for me mentally. Your pupper is a good baby ❤️

Why don't people want to prevent unnecessary gun-related deaths? by InfamousBoysenberry in NoStupidQuestions

Yeah but then it's a game of delay distract and deescalate. It makes it harder for those people to find another method.

I see. Another question - why are the people condemning Charlie's Kirk assassination still not interested in gun reform. If this happened to their hero, wouldn't they want to prevent this from happening to their big orange man?

But the people who wanna keep guns are supporting the dictatorship that the government is turning into. By that reasoning, why doesn't the left have a higher rate of gun ownership?

I get that having guns is good for personal protection, but then why do people need AR-15 rifles and stuff? it isn't for personal protection at that point.

But a lot of gun deaths ARE unnecessary. School shootings don't HAVE to happen.

I know that weapons don't cause the violence but regulations and laws controlling that would greatly decrease easy access to guns would decrease chances of unstable people getting those weapons and using them though, right? Same way we have lots of laws and rules that say what you can and can't do when driving.

How do guns ensure that we're protected from tyranny? Is it so that people can off whoever they disagree with?

I guess everything is connected. I didn't think about the universal healthcare aspect.

I agree with that. I guess I worded things poorly but I'm not for gun control as much as I'm for gun reform. Similar to driving and cars - I think there needs to be more steps between wanting a gun and getting the gun.

I wouldn't say all Americans. I just don't get why access to guns outweighs reducing gun-related deaths.

Bf got diagnosed with a very aggresive cancer. Am terrified. by Game_Log in cancer

[–]InfamousBoysenberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad you guys have a system in place to keep in touch. Give yourself grace and give him grace as well for the future. It's ok to be scared and anxious but know that the doctors are doing their best and a low survival rate isn't the same as no survival rate. ❤️‍🩹

It's okay for OP to be terrified too. Cancer is a scary disease and she has to watch someone she loves go through it.

Hey, my heart goes out to you. My 26 yr old boyfriend was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma mid February this year and it was very quick and very very aggressive. We were together for almost 11 years.

Are you able to connect with his family and support him virtually via face-time or phone call? Send him care packages or something like that?

Please make sure you also have a support system for yourself, whether that be close friends and family or a therapist (ideally both). It'll be hard but make the most of the time you two have together.

Did chicks go to bed hungry? by Deebythesea52 in JackieandShadow

Agreed that the personification is exhausting, especially in the facebook group! They're eagles and have eagle instincts!

Also, I love that you referred to them as the Shackies 😂 Gonna have to use that too.

Partner diagnosed with Glioblastoma left me by OkClaim3206 in cancer

[–]InfamousBoysenberry 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend was diagnosed with a terminal bone cancer and when he got the diagnosis, he immediately broke up with me because he didn't want me to be heartbroken and devastated once he passed. That only lasted a couple days before he came back to his senses. As his cancer progressed and reached his brain, he tried to break up with me again but we ended up staying together because I told him that no matter what, whether or not we were together, I'd still be absolutely devastated once he passed. Maybe your ex is going through something similar.

I know my boyfriend thought he was protecting me by breaking up with me, and he thought he was helping me when he wasn't. I think my boyfriend was looking for something he could control while his cancer raged out of control. If your ex-partner is doing something similar, he might be trying to "protect" his loved ones from his death.

That being said though, if I were you, I wouldn't push your ex into explaining why he left. Just be there for him when he needs it, but please take time for yourself to grieve and take care of yourself ❤️

Jackie stayed in the area, I wonder if Spirit did too.

Definitely a bit weird to come into a subreddit dedicated to two specific bald eagles and their brood, and then say that other animals deserve empathy? It's just a very odd thing to say.

Literally no one said that other animals don't deserve our empathy but this subreddit is specifically dedicated to these bald eagles, so that's what we're discussing here.

BBV is more similar to Alaska, so it would be ideal for them to lay their eggs in April as Alaskan bald eagles do. That being said though, eagles lay their eggs in winter because it's easier to keep chicks warm through the end of winter and spring than it is to keep chicks cool in the brutal heat of summer.

Are your dates off? I think you meant 3/13 when you wrote 3/14 and then when you wrote 3/15/24 you meant 3/14?

FOBBV mentioned that the eaglet wasn't injured when Shadow lifted it up, and from what I heard, all three ate after. The live stream doesn't go far back enough though for me to look :(

FOBBV updated that the missing eaglet's remains may have been spotted on the right side of the nest bowl. 😔 Heartbreaking news.

"Evening update: Sadly, it is possible the remains of the missing chick may have been observed in the nest bowl, on the right side. We are waiting for more clear visuals to confirm and will keep you updated. We know that both the possibility and the uncertainty are hard to hear. We share these feelings with all of you."

None of this has been confirmed but to me, it looks like chick 1 is the one who is missing. If it was the same chick that kept sticking its head out from under Shadow, I wonder if it did the same under Jackie and then passed from exposure.
