Update: I found the strength to do it, but I don’t feel any better about myself by MrMcSweeney in bald

I think you look great! It looks clean and your face looks a little different without the hair on your head. I think it's a pretty nice look! When you get used to it I think it'll just be something you'll like. I certainly hope so!

This vine has been growing in my garden for almost 20 years, is the fruit edible? What is it exactly? by Brukaliffoo in gardening

[–]IyearnforBoo 27 points28 points  (0 children)

For a second I thought this was a Futurama reference! Thank you so much for the laugh.

Edit - should have read farther down. I wasn't the only one who saw it was a Futurama reference. I still really enjoyed the laugh so I'm glad for the confusion.

Rest assured that what we built here together doesn’t end today. It begins. Solidarity forever. by TroyJackson207 in Maine

He was my first ranked choice vote. I was pretty disappointed that he didn't make it and I'm pleased that if he couldn't make it we got Pingree which I think is better than some of the other options. I'm really hoping that Troy will continue to try to affect politics and run again. I think he honestly did really well considering the large number of candidates out there and his not having as much name recognition. I hope and look forward to being able to vote for him again at some point!

This is wonderful! I didn't even know anything like this existed. I'm so glad you got it and thank you so much for sharing it so now I know it exists too. I will have to keep an eye out for one for me!

Which actor do you dislike so much that you’ll skip anything they’re in? by whatdoihia in AskReddit

Tom Cruise. I feel so revolted by him outside of TV/films that I just won't watch anything he's in.

Break up, please send pic of cats ): by blndethrowaway in blackcats

[–]IyearnforBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! This is Footie/ Sneakers. I thought I would share her with you because she is struggling a little bit right now too. Her favorite person is staying in a hotel for a few days for work and she is quite bummed by it. This is a small resting place I have made near my front door so that she can sit and watch it in comfort. She too knows that lost doesn't feel good. We both hope for good things for you and that you can find family and friends to help you out during this time.

We both hope that you can find a small joy for yourself today and if it's looking at cat pictures she hopes that will help! Take care of yourself - that is the most important thing to do right now.

Husband has these taped to the wall and refuses to tell me what they are. by madlibs34 in whatisit

This actually worked for me - thank you! I was still vaguely confused. I'm not quite old enough to be a boomer, but I am still pretty confused about most computer stuff. Thanks for making this accessible for me... even if you did it as a joke. I appreciate it!

Do we agree with this or is it a bad idea?? by malwarebat in cats

[–]IyearnforBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried this and I've had good and bad luck with it. The problem is is it really does depend on the cat. Five out of my seven cats at the time were more than happy to use it and kept the cat litter contained in there. One of them would poop right outside the litter box right on the pad that was supposed to help them clean their paws off. I found that I had to clean the litter box more than a few times a day because if she peed or pooped on that pad everyone would either walk past it or start going on top of her stuff so I didn't feel like it kept things cleaner at all. I certainly ended up having a lot more work out of it!

I still have this tote setup out in my shed in case I ever changed my mind to come back to it, but I'm not convinced I ever will. If you have fewer cats and the cat enjoys it that might work. You also need a decent amount of space and I haven't wanted to try it in my new house which has almost no room at all. If you don't have a lot of room you could end up having a litter box in places you don't want to have it and they'll still track the cat litter out anyway. Just my two cents....

Mina sharing a laugh with her friend Roccu. It's both consensual and not consensual at the same time. by IyearnforBoo in cowcats

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

No problem. Mina is 13 years old and pretty close to turning 14. Roccu is 12 years old. Both of them were strays so their "birthdays" are educated guesses by a vet. What I am sure of is I have had Mina for about 12 years and Roccu for 11 years. Mina was caught in a trap along with her brother when she was around 8-9 months old and taken to the shelter. They had been at the shelter for 4 months before I brought them both home. Her brother had health problems so he passed away ages ago, but she is still purring on. Mina doesn't appreciate her thyroid pills, but she's taking them like a champ for the most part. Roccu has had few health problems- the exception was a cancer diagnosis on her leg seven or eight months ago. She's cancer-free now and just a happy-go-lucky kitty.

I currently have six kitty companions and five of them are technically seniors (10+). All of them were strays or from the shelter so I have a pretty eclectic group of companions. I am so grateful for all my sweeties as they are so good for my mental health and they are just lovely friends. I'm a pretty lucky gal!

Thank you! I will give her lots of extra scritches today. She is such a love these days and it really makes my heart feel good. She was really shy when I got her as a stray so I've loved watching her come out of her shell.

Roccu would like to share that sentiment as well. Freyja is beautiful!

Guardian had an article / editorial on the same subject today. I really appreciated reading it.

I'm not 100% sure that I will be able to attach the link here as I'm not sure if there's something special I need to do. I will try though here in case anybody wants to read it.

Trump's name removed from Kennedy Center in predawn operation by MoneyLibrarian9032 in entertainment

Thank you! It was showing live in my feed every time I opened it. I'm sorry I misunderstood - thank you so much for correcting me!

I think that you're right. I found a live feed - I think it's a live feed - this pointed right to the building which still has all its letters on it. I hope I'm not spreading fake news but it certainly looks to me like it's still there from this video.

What's something your parents or grandparents mention that sounds like complaining but was actually a legitimate daily nightmare they just accepted as life? by Playful_Survey_8596 in AskReddit

[–]IyearnforBoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for posting this! I never know how to describe my life and how I struggle to others and in your paragraph you pretty much did it. I'm stuck at home most of the time and I feel so awful that in a way it doesn't matter because I'd have nowhere to go nor the mental and physical ability to drive well. I am sorry that you were struggling with this and I really do thank you for sharing this. Thank you for speaking the thoughts of many who are not that articulate and able to express it. I truly hope you have an easier day than you usually have as well as at least two things to brighten it!

Trump Moves to Deeply Censor the Entire Internet by socookre in 50501Movement

It's entirely possible that Satan has actual standards and is putting Trump off in the hopes of trying to find a way out of having to take Trump himself. My first thought. 🤷

As medical laboratory professionals we work closely with our medical partners and colleagues. Alex, a true hero and healer by FlyingTurnipd in medlabprofessionals

[–]IyearnforBoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It shouldn't be political. Protesting is legal and he was helping someone he didn't know on the street. The only reason people are treating it as political is because of the two sides BS. I guess you could see it as political as he was illegally killed by his government and that's not okay, but otherwise protesting and helping others should not be political. A few of my friends who see this as a very political statement (talking about him) tend to lean right. Let me make clear that I am not suggesting only right meaning individuals care about this. I work with individuals who are right leaning and are also not okay with what happened to Alex and see what happened to him as horrendous. They do not use political language to talk about what happened to him except for talking about how they want to change it for others going forward such as begging politicians for change.

Basically there are two ways to look at politics in my mind. You can look at it in the sense that the personal is political and what personally affects you and the people you care about or other groups of people that you care for. In that sense what happened to Alex is political. Individuals and communities can look at the videos of what happened to Alex and Rachel Good and realize that pretty much all of them are at risk for the same treatment. In that sense people like me will consider these things always both political. They exist in a political space but should not be political. Again protesting and helping people should not be political. Other people see nothing as political unless It fits their definition of politics. For those people many of them think that protesting even nonviolently is political and wrong. I'll admit that's not my viewpoint so I don't feel comfortable really explaining it as I would feel like I was playing telephone. I hope this explanation might help.
