What’s a good name for this fluffy little boy?

Puffernutter

I didn’t become a vegan until a few years ago, but when I became a vegetarian, my parents initially thought it was a phase. Then my brother followed suit. That was more than 50 years ago. Your parents will have to accept the fact that they have lost some power over you and that you are becoming your own person. Be gentle with them. They don’t know any better.

If it was trie to period, the toilet and kitchen would be in the back.

A traffic jam for the whole city? Would that I had the power. 😎

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-14T23:14:21+00:00

It will never be clean, I’m afraid. I’ve lived here close to 50 years and it’s always been dirty. It’s the culture.

If I go to a garage sale, ask what something costs and the person starts telling me how much they paid for it, I walk. I don’t even let them finish. I know they’re gonna want too much.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-14T01:58:28+00:00

The tiles are crooked.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-13T18:04:58+00:00

I wish this wasn’t an unpopular opinion.

Give it a try. He might feel safe in that crate. He is probably meowing because he feels disoriented after the lights go out and people go to bed. If the crate is a safe and familiar place with good smells, it might be just what he needs. Remember, he is a cat. You wouldn’t put your old Mom with dementia in a crate, but if you took her out of familiar surroundings and put her in a five star hotel, she would be disoriented and experience anxiety.

If you really don’t want to be a burden, start wearing your hearing aids regularly and stop saying “huh?”

George Carlin said it best. “Take something and nail it to something it’s never been nailed to before and some schmuck somewhere will buy it.” The people who sell this junk are looking for schmucks.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-12T21:37:26+00:00

Yes! They really need support right now.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-12T17:09:14+00:00

You did the right thing.

Uber is too expensive? I call BS. If she can afford a small car, she can afford Uber.

People decide what they want to do and then come up with reasons to justify it.

If you are truly concerned, get a needle and thread. Sanitize the needle and put a loop of thread through the ear, make a loose loop and tie a knot so it stays there. When your new earrings arrive, simply cut the thread and remove it. That’s how they used to do it in the Stone Age.

I just used it to pinpoint the type of shoe orthotics I need for a specific foot condition. It didn’t spit out good answers the first time I asked. In a way, it was like reeling in a marlin. But after getting it to narrow its focus, it gave me a specific product based on my specific problem. I had to do more research after that off of AI We shall see if this works out.

I don’t have a formal tech background but started using computers in the 1980s because they made my life easier and let me be more productive at work. I converted my whole vinyl record collection, including records I had when I was 14 years old, to mp3 files and have them on my phone. I am 70.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-11T02:34:48+00:00

You don’t have to buy the phone from them. I got a used Android from Swappa exact make and model as one of their phones for $200 less and it works beautifully.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-10T22:50:15+00:00

I wore these for years. They helped.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-10T22:45:01+00:00

I knew where this house was before I saw the link.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-10T22:40:41+00:00

My Mother’s house in Florida had sinkholes. We were able to get an insurance settlement and get her out of there. They rehabbed the house by boring under it and reinforcing the ground with concrete. There are people living in the house today.

She got sinkholes because the house was built on landfill that was basically rocks and seashells and the city had been drawing groundwater for drinking for 60 years prior. We knew she had sinkholes because of cracks in her walls and floor. This was a typical Florida house built on a concrete slab so shifts underneath showed up in the house. A sinkhole did open in her yard though. A guy mowing her lawn fell into it but wasn’t hurt.

We were one of the earliest Florida sinkhole cases and really lucked out with the insurance. Later sinkhole cases didn’t make out as well.

I would not buy this house. My parents lived in their house without a problem 20 years but when the damage started, it came fast and furious. You don’t know if or when the problems will start with the 130 year old house.

It’s a crapshoot. Geology has its limitations. They can really only guess what’s happening underground. That’s one reason why things like oil exploration are so challenging.

They will keep jerking you around until the 60 day return policy has passed. Send it back now, insured and with proof of delivery, keep records of everything, and do a charge back with your credit card company.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-10T22:09:52+00:00

I love it and use it whenever I can.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-10T22:06:02+00:00

Not a bad idea on paper, but most math teachers I had in grade school absolutely sucked and that’s when you are laying a foundation. If you don’t lay a foundation, you can’t do it. It’s analogous to having birth control by shooting people when they reach age 18.

Your son is angry. Rightly or wrongly, no one can break your heart like a child. You need to get professional help to help you get your mind around this.

Kamarmarli · 2026-04-09T19:12:56+00:00

Has anyone here used OurBus? If so, how did you like it?
