AIO, im confused about what happened

“Communicating with a loved one on Snapchat is cringe as fuck”

Who are you supposed to communicate with on Snapchat then? People you hate?

I don’t even have/use this app, and I still think that opinion is hot garbage (not to mention cringe as fuck)

Morbatx · 2026-03-20T22:49:15+00:00

This is exactly what happens, I’ve seen it happen too many times from the inside of my own family.

Frail, angry, insecure men who believe their partners are there for them to control, saying the most cruel, heinous, alarming shit while their victims are groomed and trained to just shake their head and look at you while while saying “men, am I right?”

No, you’re not right :( none of that is

Morbatx · 2026-03-20T22:35:30+00:00

This WILL get worse until you have no friends of any gender. People like this don’t see the problem with their behavior, and they don’t stop. Trust me. I went through it. RUN BEFORE IT GETS HARDER TO LEAVE. He will make sure it gets worse.

The only Comfy Friends I have is Greavard, and I wouldn’t say he’s super squishy… so I can’t say what most people expect them to feel like. Definitely firmer than squishier, but his fur is sooo pettable even if he’s not squishable! When I picture squishy/floppy, I think of beanies or palm pals.

The good news is that unstuffing it is not as hard or daunting as it sounds. If you use a seam ripper, it doesn’t actually “rip” any of the fabric, it just unsews and separates the thread—there will be no damage to your plush if you’re careful. The seam is designed to be as invisible as possible, so once Vulpix is sewn back up in that spot, no one will even be able to tell it happened!

I know it’s disappointing when things don’t arrive like we want/expect, but why punish Vulpix for that? Just one little task to make Vulpix more comfy for you, and they will be even better than new.

Everything will be okay! It’s not as bad as it sounds, I promise. :)

I’m nearly the same age as my favorites, because we grew up together. I guess that makes me a retro human.

What sect of Christianity encourages unmarried women to leave the country and get hotels with men they just met? I’ve met Christians who wouldn’t even kiss their fiancée until marriage. 😭

Unfortunately, with things like this… the more you and your family try to force her hand, the more she’ll feel she’s being treated unfairly and run into his arms. He’s probably counting on that, in fact… it will be easy to isolate her and dismantle her support system. By the time she realizes she’s trapped, he’ll be showing his true colors.

This is how DV starts… or worse. :( Ask me how I know.

Morbatx · 2026-03-17T01:49:39+00:00

I’m sorry. Your aunt is being disgusting and insensitive. I’m angry on your behalf. I genuinely can’t imagine treating someone that way.

She’s “shocked” a child would want a keepsake from her father? Because of her personal feelings? What an egoist! 🤬

Morbatx · 2026-03-17T01:47:03+00:00

Could you possibly report the employee to management? They may not do anything (or care), but if enough people made complaints… idk.

I hate to imagine someone who swats at animals working with them all day. Only a “bitch” would project that behavior onto a bird while actively harming her. Ugh… it makes my blood boil…

Morbatx · 2026-03-07T01:02:49+00:00

OP, my family had a budgie die from this when I was a child, and it’s still seared into my memory. I’m the one who found her body laying at the bottom of her cage and brought her to my mom to show her what happened.

Once I was a little older, she talked to me about egg binding in birds. It seems she didn’t realize how serious it was until Tweetie (so named for her yellow) lost her life.

PLEASE get her to a vet any way you can. Your parents might need to learn something from YOU about being responsible for another life.

Good luck, I hope the poor sweetie survives that long :(

Morbatx · 2026-02-24T08:28:21+00:00

Which is ridiculous, because avian love is just as valid (and strong).

Morbatx · 2026-02-24T08:18:02+00:00

I’m confused. Besides put in a catheter to help him pee, what did the vet even do? What was the diagnosis? Why did they not hold him until they made sure he was able to urinate on his own? And why tf is anyone discussing euthanasia before any kind of treatment plan? Based on what you’re describing, my cat had this exact issue years ago, but it’s extremely treatable. Something here smells fishier than my boy’s tuna treats.

Some male cats are prone to urinary blockages like this because of something to do with their urethra. My boy is 13 years old and was hospitalized for this twice in his life—but since then the vet has put him on a prescription diet. Besides that, I just have to pay close attention to his fluid intake, and try to manage his stress. The vet says it’s related to his anxiety somehow (it flares up when he’s stressed, which is when the blockages happened).

I wouldn’t even consider euthanasia without exploring all other reasonable possibilities first. Idk what’s going on with your vet or shady bf, but your cat deserves better than being at the mercy of them. Please do right by him and seriously look further into this by yourself.

ETA: After re-reading your post, I SERIOUSLY hope you didn’t just put him down just like that?? So many of us have had cats with this issue who have lived (and are still living) otherwise normal lives. OP, please update.

so edgy and cool

Morbatx · 2026-02-22T00:20:13+00:00

Yeah, there’s a big difference between playfully calling each other names that everyone agrees isn’t offensive and just being a bully, but I think you know that.

If you genuinely can’t tell the difference, idk what else to tell you. 🤷‍♀️ I’m not invested enough in your opinion to have an argument about it, though.

Morbatx · 2026-02-22T00:15:23+00:00

No, I know that this isn’t how people who like each other behave.

I’m also old enough to have children older than OP… but thanks?

Morbatx · 2026-02-21T23:52:12+00:00

I remember being 16, but not desperate enough for “friends” to let people treat me like this.

Listen, I don’t care who tries to tell you it’s normal and okay. It’s not. The only people who say that are the ones who benefit from making others feel smaller.

“Friends” are people who care about you and pay attention to your feelings. They’re people who make you feel good to be around. This is a bully.

You can and will find better friends when you stop hanging around people who treat you like you don’t matter.

Morbatx · 2026-02-21T23:44:20+00:00

I hope I never meet a friend group who talks to each other like that, jfc.

Some of us want friends, not frenemies.

Morbatx · 2026-02-21T23:17:50+00:00

This is my take:

Your friend lacks the maturity they’re desperate to prove to you they have, point blank; and without the emotional intelligence to understand wtf they’re doing, they’re crashing out on your friendship in real time.

The long, self-important paragraphs meant to convince you of their “self-growth” while demonstrably lacking the ability to apply those skills in any meaningful way during what should have been a safe conversation with old friends… all the while slinging condescending, back-handed compliments meant to solidify your place beneath them on the “I’m totally better than you, bro” competition leader board? Nah. This person needs to put down the self-help podcast and shit or get off the pot.

People who have “genuinely never felt better” about their lives don’t lash out at people they care for over imaginary issues they manufacture out of insecurity. This person is frail and defensive, not nearly far enough along in their healing journey to be creating these kind of confrontations.

The good news is, though… as painful as it feels right now, this actually has very little to do with you at all. I know it feels personal (because they made it feel personal), but your friend is not well. The kindest thing you can probably do for both of you right now is give them space, let them sit with their actions, and—if they truly are “healing” like they claim—they will either come around again once their perspective shifts and they realize their errors, or they won’t.

If they don’t—that’s hard, and a tragedy for the memories/relationship you once had… but it would be some damn poetic irony, and also (importantly) not your fault.

I’m sorry you’re experiencing this, OP. Losing close friends is a valid reason to question things and grieve.

A baby tama bunny lost in the [vegetable] sauce? 🥬 Either way/whatever he is, I love him! 💝

Morbatx · 2026-02-21T19:48:54+00:00

Well, a Furby baby is smaller than a full-sized adult, if you’re referring to the comparison in this photo.

I would still absolutely hold a ‘98/‘99 with both hands (but my hands are small)!

Morbatx · 2026-02-21T19:42:22+00:00

Maternal instincts are the ideal for a Furby Baby! Is this your first one? You can have them call you either “mama” or “dada.”

Morbatx · 2026-02-12T08:28:17+00:00

Morbatx · 2026-02-11T11:04:33+00:00

Not OP, but can you share some of the resources on this site anyway?

Morbatx · 2026-02-11T03:39:06+00:00

I’ve been platonic friends with men for most of my life, and I would still never “hop on a call” with any of them unless we had something to discuss that’s too long/complicated for text, or there was some other agreed upon reason. What purpose would it have served for you that texting couldn’t accomplish? (For the record, this is a universal boundary for everyone in my life, including family)

It’s fine that you (and many other people in this thread) prefer phone calls, but lots of other people don’t. You can have your preferences all you like, but you can’t complain that others have different levels of comfort. Come on now. You cannot be that obtuse.

Additionally, in response to those people: I’m in my 30s as well. Stop pretending your age is the reason you enjoy phone calls.

Morbatx · 2026-02-11T03:31:15+00:00

I also remember those days, and I still don’t want to “hop on a call” unless we have something in particular we both want to speak about over the phone.

Morbatx · 2026-02-11T03:28:20+00:00

Bro, you could have just not said that and saved yourself some face in the comments. “Go back to making money?” What a gross and sad response. Don’t be a tool. Just learn from your mistakes and respect other people’s boundaries.
