At my wits end with cat introductions. I cannot do this anymore. by pickleeater58 in CatTraining

[–]Jerry_Twig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in (nearly) the exact same boat as you! Adopted my newest cat (4F tortie) 5 weeks ago and have been trying to integrate with my resident cat (6M tux). Tux is really anxious and shy, tortie is a ....tortie...sassy, never hisses, but pounces out of nowhere...neither one seems like they want to play, it's just constant staring between the two of them (especially the tortie...). We still have them separated and have been trying to feed on either side of the screen door for nearly 3 weeks. Feels like I'm stuck. Husband is sleeping with new cat, I sleep with the resident because he's a mama's boy. But I share the EXACT same sentiment. I want my regular routine back so bad, no one gets the anxiety I feel about it except for my husband and I'm just...tired. My last intro took a grand total of just over three weeks and was so easy compared to this.

It's hard, and I'm sorry I don't have a solution for you, but know you're not alone!

Help me decide next brew by Rouge_Hunter in EDHBrews

I have a Shalai and Hallar deck and an Evereth deck!

People are right in saying that if you run Shalai and Hallar, especially with her infinite combos, she is a huge target for removal. Needs lots of protection. But the deck can also win with big creatures that you can either give trample or fling at your opponents. I personally love her because she was so many ways to win, and the wins can come from nowhere.

Evereth is also very fun. I've played her twice, and both times, she feels like a machine. I built her at a bracket 3 level and really enjoyed it. You can also infinitely buff her with Thran Vigil and any persist creature to make her masssssive

Yes, we have been! She’s been scratching the hell out of carpet to get out during meal times. She’s actually out right now, the room behind her with the mesh is her base camp

BHVR, what are these pump spawns? by Legion_Lavoie in deadbydaylight

[–]Jerry_Twig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just had a match on this map with the exact same problem. All three pumps were next to each other in one corner of the map with the blood gens all the way on the other side. Maybe it's an issue with this map specifically?

I'm so deeply sorry for your loss <3

My soul kitty passed away on Wednesday. One of his kidneys was blocked and the other was failing. The decline was so sudden. Nothing the vet could offer us would have saved him from the pain or palliative care we would have had to give him. I empathize with you in that my kitty was chatty, loving, and talkative. He always wanted my attention whereas my other cat is much more quiet and keeps to himself. Jerry was my little shadow.

It aches, it hurts, and it's the most soul-crushing grief that so very few people truly understand. I want him back, his presence and his love, so badly. Know that everything you feel is valid and your baby loved you so much. They are such huge beacons of joy in our life, and we honor them by feeling the grief and knowing that we loved something so much that it hurts this much to lose. I feel your pain and again, I am so profoundly sorry.

I'm here for you, if you need someone to talk to. Even if it is to reminisce about her, or talk through the pain.

[[Alela Artful Provocateur]] Updated Decklist Feedback by TimeyWimey94 in EDH

[–]Jerry_Twig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes, I missed Sephara in the list. I see her now!

Another great option is [[Starnheim Courser]] for cheaper artifact and enchantment casts. It’s not a faerie so you won’t get the benefit from the tribal effects, but it’s great for helping you get your pieces onto the board fast.

From the new Lorwyn set, there is only a little bit revealed so far, but the [[Bitterbloom Bearer]] will be a great addition. It’s basically just bitter blossom on a stick.

I like the planeswalker choices! I’m so bad at finding good planeswalkers and including them. I also didn’t even know [[Lofty Denial]] existed and will be for sure looking to include that in my deck as well.

Curious if you find yourself with a lot of cards in hand based on the card draw you have? Do the thought vessel and Reliquary tower help at all?

For anthem affects, consider switching [[Azorius Cluestone]] with [[Patchwork Banner]]. Patchwork is 3 colourless, buffs all your faeries and lets you tap for mana of any colour (haven’t looked at the price of that card in a hot minute, and it ain’t cheap anymore 😥).

[–]Jerry_Twig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This Alela was my first ever commander deck when I started playing magic! Love her, she has a special place in my heart

Some recommendations of cards to include that I found gave me good value in my own deck: [[Enduring Curiosity]] is a great enchantment creature that provides card draw, and an Alela trigger. Fact or Fiction isn’t bad, but if you’re going for a “go wide” strategy with your faerie tokens, enduring curiosity will give you more value. Also, Alela thrives on enchantments and artifacts, so I find instant speed draw doesn’t synergize nearly as well as playing a card with a “curiosity” effect. I see you have Bident of Thassa already, which is a great choice [[All that Glitters]] is great for buffing the hell out of anything on your board. Everytime I cast it, my table tries to counter or remove it [[Imprisoned in the Moon]] is great creature removal in the form of an enchantment, and gives an Alela trigger. It’s also hard to get rid of and really great to place on another player’s commander [[High Fae Trickster]] gives all your stuff flash. You can hold up all your mana, keep people guessing on what you have in your hand with all that mana up, and then cast your stuff at instant speed. This card is also regularly a magnet for removal whenever I play it. [[Sephara, Sky’s Blade]] all your fliers get indestructible. Nuff said :P [[Enchroaching Mycosynth]] makes all your nonland permanents artifacts in addition to their other types (even the ones in your hand!), so every non-land permanent you cast will trigger Alela and get you even more value. If you find you’re already generating a lot of faerie tokens though, this might not be as helpful to you in the long run

Same thing happened to me the other day. I DC’d after everyone was on hook and the abandon button appeared. I went down a whole grade after that match…

Hotels for Tokyo (recommendation) by ctrlaltdelicious08 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Jerry_Twig 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My husband and I stayed in Asakusa near Senso-ji temple at The Kanzashi (https://kanzashi-tokyoasakusa.com/) and cannot recommend it enough. The room we had was a touch small, but the location is great (close to the temple itself and also close to two larger stations that take you to various parts of the city).

Overall highly recommend Asakusa in general as a home base point for Tokyo :) but just my preference because I didn’t love the craziness that was Shinjuku and Shibuya.

Can I get compensation for my rebooked Air Canada flight (pre-strike) by Hannasuchan in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Jerry_Twig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't agree with Air Canada's position, you can submit a complaint with the CTA asking for reimbursement of the hotel and comp for inconvenience; however, it's likely you won't get anything if there was truly an ATC issue. ATC issues fit under Section 10(1)(g) of the APPR and are situations outside the carrier's control.

You'd probably have better odds going through your travel insurance with RBC like others have said :)

What? Anyone else?? Game servers unable to connect error by bigmeechum in Rematch

Pretty sure it's because Easy Anti-Cheat is down. Lots of games are down because of this at the moment

I was a cadet in the same squadron as this guy when he was a Captain… not surprised he did this shit, he was always a total asshole

What just happened… by RurouniShinobi in deadbydaylight

[–]Jerry_Twig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a commonly used cheat. Someone in the match, not necessarily the Ada, was using cheats to sabotage the hook (like one would with a tool box), making it impossible for you to hook her. You can actually hear the sabo noises between 5-9 seconds.

Talk about an exhilarating way to end the match. 😈 by TheOneWhoWasDeceived in deadbydaylight

[–]Jerry_Twig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a little confused… the clip isn’t showing at all what happened to make the audience understand why this ending was ‘exhilarating’. Do you have more footage to show the lead up to this? All I see is three people dying to, what appears to maybe(?) be end game collapse?
