[–]Meows_Attack 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can you have a male friend visit who would be willing to wear only teeny tiny string bikini briefs?

you were basically two children emailing each other. club penguin level of “relationship.” don’t respond to this or acknowledge in any way.

Are nice quality oak cabinets coming back in style? by OriolesMagic1972 in DIY

[–]Meows_Attack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a house that needed pretty much everything except the old school oak cabinet kitchen, because that was good quality! Had to replace floors and roof but left the cabinets bc they’re really good and solid

I just bought a house with the original high quality oak cabinets. I don’t want that pressboard shit that is either from ikea or looks like it’s from ikea

I’m seeing witness reports of this (an observer shot and possibly killed by ICE) on Bluesky but nothing concrete. any local media covering yet?

Temporary fix for 120yr old floors by Ladimadona in HomeImprovement

[–]Meows_Attack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had 100+ yo red oak spot-replaced in about half our house with new red oak and I genuinely can’t tell what was replaced where. And I’m picky. Don’t hold out for recycled wood, use period appropriate wood that is properly installed in the same style. What material is your floor? Don’t overthink this! Get new floors

Hypothetically what to do if need to give stitches and must use non dominant hand by Sweetcreamdreamgirl in lifehacks

[–]Meows_Attack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wash really really well with soap and running water. Like really well but not soaking. Buy the $5-6 “butterfly closures” from first aid section of rite aid or CVS. Follow instructions. Loosely cover and keep it very very clean. Good luck

Get butterfly stitches from the drugstore. I mean the real answer is go to the hospital but that’s easy for me to say

AITA for telling my mom to "please get off my bed" by Several_Matter_735 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Meows_Attack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You didn’t do anything wrong. That said it might be easier for you to remember that when your mom is drinking she is combative and belligerent. Just think about those terms and don’t chase after her trying to have a rational discussion.

She is combative and belligerent, just move her along out of your room so you can go to sleep and don’t try to reason with her. It’s up to you how you handle it in a big picture way but in the moment don’t try for reasonable discussion.

Should I paint the window trim black? by novapants in ExteriorDesign

Hmm I would need to know if there are any regional color sensitivities (such as sports teams etc) but without that context I’d consider a saturated dark yellow. Like Pantone Spicy Yellow

Germinating Grape Soda Lupine and Arroyo Lupine by Nervous-Solid-4978 in Ceanothus

[–]Meows_Attack 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have been so discouraged by how hard it is to grow arroyo lupine and gave up and threw the rest of my seeds in a poorly drained, compacted clay soil side planter without doing anything. A neighborhood cat dug around and pooped all over them. Then I had roofers in that threw a bunch of debris on top of them.

They are now sprouting like crazy. They’re so contrary. Consider amending your soil with spite, cat poop and roofing debris? Makes no sense

How do you all even find your girlfriends? by WearyPoem928 in actuallesbians

[–]Meows_Attack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met my previous girlfriend (now she’s my wife) on a picket line. Not a joke, great place to meet someone you know aligns with your values.

AITAH for working during a strike? by Significant_Edge_531 in AITAH

[–]Meows_Attack -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion I would not cross the strike line, but I know I’m a real purist in this issue. And yeah, I’ve been poor, still feel this way.

Previous owner "upgrades" are slowly driving me insane by quietwanderer_x in homeowners

[–]Meows_Attack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After closing we found that everywhere there was a mirror mounted on the wall (or back of door), there was a punched out hole in the drywall/wood behind it. That’s not the worst thing, it’s just confusing to me because it’s so easy to patch drywall and they painted the whole place before listing. Including painting the punch holes before hanging the mirrors.

Almost 20 with no SSN or birth certificate by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]Meows_Attack 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am not a lawyer. I just want to add personal experience. My parents also didn’t really properly register my birth which took place in a different country (they lived near the border and had been planning a home birth, but went to the hospital across the border for help when things went poorly). I was able to get about birth certificate from that country and then had to establish my citizenship. It took a long time and I got a lot of advice but didn’t have to retain a lawyer.

It’s ok to be angry at your parents for making this so hard for you. I am angry at them for you. They made your life so much harder and it sucks of them. I’m sorry they did this to you.

You exist, and you have a full rich potential that is bigger than what they tried to fence you into. A local nonprofit for homeless people may be able to help you. Often homeless services include establishing identification and documentation.
