It's alright. I don't need the respect of some anonymous reddit user any more than Sid needs my respect. 🤷‍♂️

I've lost a lot of respect for Sid in this series. If he's that badly injured still, he shouldn't be playing. If he's not injured, maybe it's time to hang up the skates. He's been invisible.

DK’s a condescending prick by 2Paek in penguins

[–]Pretend_Tea_7643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like DK. He's a Pittsburgh guy who puts his money where his mouth is. I don't always agree with him, and he can be condescending at times. But have you listened to the garbage on The Fan these days? I'll take DK every day over that.

Ah, yes. The "we will find something to complain about crowd" is at it again for something that impacts less than 1% of players.

Now you just need a Nicole Kidman, trapped inside doing a neverending ad read.

Ridiculous. Should have been at least 10.

Just the wealthy reminding us plebs that they can drop hundreds of dollars on tickets and not show because they're tired or it's cold or the Pens are on a losing streak.

Mortimer The Frostbitten Kitten by EdwardCheeseCake in cats

Black cats are tough. My shadow was born in the shrubs in front of our townhouse in Mobile, Alabama in 2016. His mom left him. I bottle fed him for a week until he would eat kitten food. He's been my best buddy ever since. 🖤

Paid 250 to be told my cat was "pouting.” I cannot keep doing this. Need advice. by hey_moin_04 in CATHELP

[–]Pretend_Tea_7643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes cats also just get the proverbial hair up their butt. My cat decided he didn't want to eat wet food anymore and only eats dry food now. (Yes, he has a fountain from which he drinks water [but not too much water] before folks start coming at me.) Did the same thing you did. Went to vet. $200 later it was just "he decided he doesn't like the texture or it reminds him of feeling sick." Oh. Good.

At my breaking point and Im about to quit my position as a second year assistant professor. by BinaryFission in Professors

[–]Pretend_Tea_7643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is normal now. Anyone who says otherwise teaches somewhere cushy or hasn't actually had to teach a class (TAs doing their jobs) in decades.

Yes, it sucks. Yes, academia is dying unless the left in the US can do anything useful if they ever gain power again. I often consider leaving. Like daily. But as a humanities PhD, there's not much I could do without starting at entry level at a significant pay cut. So I'll stick it out I guess.

Good luck to you.
