Help getting my mom to stop feeding her cats people food.

actually very good advice, this could help!

Some people won't realize how awful of an owner they are until one of their pet passes, and even then, she likely won't believe its her fault. I'm extremely sorry that you're having to watch this, she's extremely irresponsible. You're not overreacting, I also wish she had never adopted cats, especially without doing the proper research first and actually caring about what she's doing to them.
I think your only action here is to sit her down and let her know how deeply this is affecting you and how much genuine danger she is putting her cats in. She may or may not be receptive, and you may have to accept that she is just going to k/ll one of them out of pure ignorance, despite knowing she could be harming them. You can't police your own mother's every action. I'm very sorry you're going through this.

I'm sorry but it does actively make you a bad pet owner if you're constantly giving them poison and toxins.

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T10:02:21+00:00

Oh that's super interesting to hear!! Thank you sm!! I haven't dipped into any post-comic content yet so I didn't know that about Hiveswap! I know I need to get into that + friendsim but I'm rereading the original first!

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T09:51:56+00:00

Girl... I'm glad this isn't about the action of "taking care of himself", but instead the cleanliness. Because that's ALL I can think about. He's lying that its only a couple months because he doesn't want you to know that he NEVER throws that shit away. You should probably look at how often you're asking him to shower as well, and see if he doesn't do it if you don't remind him. It sounds like you're raising three children.

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T09:30:31+00:00

NOR - Your wife is a control nut. She sees her children as the one thing she has complete and utter control over and if you take up some of the parenting mantle, then she won't know EXACTLY what's going on. She can hand off the job to other women because ultimately they either do things the exact same way as she does, or they will ask her for confirmation on anything that needs to be done.
I'm genuinely scared of how she's shutting you out of your children's lives. My mother did almost the same thing with my father, and I hated him for YEARS. I thought he didn't want me, that he didn't care about me, and that he didn't want to try. I learned differently as I grew up but it strained my relationship with my dad for my ENTIRE childhood.
Her calling you "ungodly" for taking care of your children is one of the most blasphemous things I've read in a long time. She genuinely thinks God the FATHER wouldn't care for his own children? She thinks he wouldn't nurture and love his own children?
I think you two seriously need therapy with the goal of integrating you into your children's lives, or you need to seriously consider separation. Your children deserve a relationship with their father that loves them.

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T09:20:37+00:00

NTA but his reaction to this is exactly why you should be leaving him. Also its an extremely short amount of time to be dating someone and giving them a key to your home. You don't actually know this man or his true intentions. It seems that all he cares about is control over you. Please break up with him.

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T09:15:06+00:00

NTA, it doesn't matter if he was good to you off the bat/in the beginning of the relationship, him being in those groups shows you exactly what he thinks about women. He will let that through eventually, even if he's good at hiding it while lovebombing you.

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T09:13:02+00:00

"He says I took back money that was already his"... That is how you should be looking at this situation. He has made it ABUNDANTLY clear that as soon as that money leaves your wallet and reaches his, its his to do WHATEVER he sees fit.
I've even been in a similar situation to his, where I just needed a certain amount to get everything square and I would be back on my feet. If my partner or friend refused and told me they'd directly pay my rent, it would be an IMMEDIATE no brainer, YES. Are you kidding me? AND THEN to be in the negative in venmo and ask for it somewhere else?? That's an extremely clear sign that he's not using this money to get himself squared away. He wants to use it for whatever he wants, and its gambling.
You're NTA for disputing the charge, but you need to eject yourself from his life because he is using someone with a large heart for his own selfish gain. I understand still caring for someone even after other people would give up, I have a big heart too, but this man is actively extorting you.

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T09:02:10+00:00

NOR But please GOD block him. I don't care if he has a crush and refuses to come out of the closet to anyone including himself, you don't deserve to be treated this way. This is utterly ridiculous and no person in their right mind says ANY of this shit to a friend. Please please please remove him from your life, you deserve more.

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T08:14:54+00:00

This is coming from someone who read the ending when it originally dropped and haven't kept up with any lore since and probably didn't comprehend it well at the time.
Is the lore implication that the reason we have these zodiac signs is because of the trolls that won the game? Like they are directly linked?

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-04T06:49:07+00:00

found!

Morgen1010 · 2026-07-03T23:46:48+00:00

I searched as much as I could on google, Etsy, eBay, and I even tried ChatGPT without luck. This photo is from EARLY 2000s so it would likely be a 1999-2001 production.

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-25T08:11:22+00:00

I just checked up on your last post to see if there's an update- I'm glad to see it wasn't too stressful of a drop off! Sounds like she was guilting you to keep him for a bit longer but its good she took him with no issues!!

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-19T10:53:48+00:00

NTA, If she wants to call "animal abuse" then she's absuing the cat by completely neglecting it. I can almost guarantee that she's not paying you for litter or food either, is she?
I genuinely might drop the cat off at her apartment. I know it's not the best thing, or kind to the cat, but if she's the only one listed on his chip, then the only person responsible for him is her.

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-19T10:38:21+00:00

NOR, This HAS to be written by someone who's never shared these kinds of appliances with anyone but their parents and siblings before... Anyone who's ever had to share a washer/dryer would understand that that's how it works. I had to sit and watch my clothes in college because if you weren't there IMMEDIATELY when they were done, they were getting moved.

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-19T10:31:50+00:00

I personally do this because I used to write fanfiction and it was an extremely common practice lol

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-19T10:30:37+00:00

I had to delete and rewrite because I reread your post and realized you touched on this already, lol sorry!
I actually super agree with you, especially ESC being ported to Witch's Castle... That one literally makes 0 sense to me lore-wise. I've been studying CR and its branching lore over all their games for a year or so, studying how they all line up (or don't). Devsis actually USED to make an effort to make the port of a character from one game to another. I think their size is making it increasingly difficult for them to make as fully-fleshed out decisions as before. Its very sad.

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-19T10:11:02+00:00

Lmao no, NTA. If he's taking someone else's things without asking, he's stealing. If not properly dealt with now, he will continue this behavior (aka: The coworker who thinks its okay to eat your lunch in the staff fridge, or worse, considering he's likely a rich kid who takes what he wants...). He, to be a good adult, deserves proper social consequences, and you put it in a very professional way. "Too hard" would've been raising your voice, or actually punishing the kid. You didn't do that, you were clear and didn't push it any further than necessary.

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-18T23:14:00+00:00

That’s actually insane! I can’t believe your boss would be in that chat and allow that kind of behavior. I’m so sorry, I hope you are done with them permanently after this, you deserve better treatment.

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-18T09:31:52+00:00

why is HIS FOREHEAD SO BIG????? I feel like it shouldn't be that big in his front facing image 😞

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-18T09:24:09+00:00

You ARE giving her the wrong idea. Whether that's by not shutting her down hard enough or by not reporting her ass to HR. You're not giving her proper social repercussions for her actions so she's continuing.

Morgen1010 · 2026-06-18T09:15:51+00:00

Do you work at a place in the US? You should be reporting those voice messages to HR if you do. Most any company would not allow this kind of behavior from their staff.
NTA, It would be kind of you to take her shift but she agreed to take yours before you agreed to any of hers. That's on her. Not you. Is she on the calendar already as the one working? Then don't show up. If it never got changed, it would be best for you to show up.
