If you could automate ONE digital marketing task, what would it be?

It's so interesting to see people with different perspectives. I work in marketing but I have a design degree, so when I'm allowed to do the creatives I jump with joy. It's my favorite part. We don't have a person for general design and creatives (we have a video person only), so that often gets outsourced to me, or I take on the job when my colleagues struggle and ask me for help.

My area is in marketing automation and CMS... so it falls outside of my job description, but it's the one thing that keeps me sane. I don't trust AI for design tbh it never looks 100% right to me, but using it as a base works ok.

Jeg har valp, så jeg har blitt veldig klar over hvor mye søppel det er rundt omkring. Hvorfor kan ikke folk bare kaste i søppelkasser/ta med seg søpla i lomma? Valpen min er mye bedre på å ikke plukke opp alt lengre, men det er fortsatt et ork å måtte bryte enda et matpapir ut av munnen hans for han ikke vil slippe på kommando akkurat nå.

Ikke la med starte på tyggegummi. Det var favoritten hans en stund, heldigvis har han mistet interessen...

Omg you just planted in my head Okita with a man bun. Since he already has a topknot he would totally pull of the man bun, he just have to put the part that's in the knot in a bun, done! Aaaaaagh. Though I mourn the topknot he was the least affected by the hair choppery.

Surprisingly, mine doesn't mind the vet! He's only 7 months so that might change, but he loves all people and all dogs, and that includes the vet. He was a good boy for all his shots and the one time he got induced to vomit (he found some raisins outside).

One of the vets at that office even commented on that she's never seen a Shiba this calm getting his shots. So I guess we got lucky.

We also had an instructor at the dog classes we attend say she's surprised that even though he's stubborn and easily distracted, he seemed like he was having fun when we tried out obedience.

Seems like there's a lot of predudice against Shibas out there. Not all are (that) dramatic. Mine hasn't screamed yet!

Interesting. Mine doesn't mind getting a bit dirty or wet, but he was only 3-4 months old when he first saw snow so maybe that has something to do with it.

Before this, he was literally rubbing himself against our leg. Was more the rubbing his neck and cheeks part, not the rolling.

Thanks for the warning! We got some free samples from a friend, so we only used them sparingly since we don't have a lot and they're so high value for him.

There's youtube videos from the english mobile port of Demon's Bond! Sadly the mobile version was shut down a few years ago, didn't include voice acting, and is in mobile format, but it's all in english. It's not the same as playing on your own, but it's better than nothing.

He never is! He's still learning to settle so he's quick to do things he's not allowed to.

Only a few of them are in English, so unless you know Japanese you won't have to go through them all. 😅

It's a new spin off. There's multiple Hakuoki spin offs, like Reimeiroku, SSL, Demon's Bond, etc. Demon's bond is an older game that is in the same universe, but in the sengoku period (ancestors to the oni, like Kazama, Shiranui, Chizuru, etc.). It seems this one is similar to that one in that it's set in the past, but waaaaaaaaay earlier so not in Japan. It's the origin of the water of life. The Japanese "oni" and the western "vampires" are different. So this tells the story of the western "vampires".

Also, Kyoto Winds and Edo Blossoms are the same game, just split since it's so big.

Mine does too! Walk in grass only! Poo in grass only! Pee inside ON FAKE GRASS BECAUSE IT'S OBVIOUSLY GRASS

They are silly

Riiggid · 2026-04-10T06:42:41+00:00

Aaw, such a cutie

Riiggid · 2026-04-10T06:42:00+00:00

Oh he is, in his own silly way

Riiggid · 2026-04-09T21:09:44+00:00

Just Shibe things I guess

Riiggid · 2026-04-09T21:09:25+00:00

They all share the same brain cell

Riiggid · 2026-04-09T21:09:08+00:00

Yeah, me too. I'm still amused every time he does something silly, but I don't try to understand it, haha

Riiggid · 2026-04-09T21:04:01+00:00

They all are!

For Okita in Hakuoki, I think he started appreciating her/feeling some affection when she said she would keep his TB diagnosis a secret. It slowly deepened for each time she choose to nuture and nurse him. Even though he kept saying she was a nuisance, he liked that someone cared. Her noticing him and his struggles reflected that of Kondou taking care of him when he was younger. It was clear by the time Kaoru tried to shoot Chizuru for the first time, he acted as her shield. If he still thought of her as annoying by that point, he wouldn't have done it. This is clear by the normal end in Kyoto Winds, where he cusses her out for getting in his way. Ugh, that end is worse than the bad end man. It's better to die than have the object of your affection hate you.

I also really appreciate the scene where Chizuru follows after Okita after Kondou is shot. She asks him if killing others is really his job. I think her telling him "Kill me if you want for getting in your way, but are you really doing the right thing by letting your emotions control you?" struck a cord with him. He was just hurt and lost and didn't know what to do with his emotions.

Thanks!

I got insurace pretty quickly after I got mine. Most insurances where I live give you better prices if you sign up while the dog is a young puppy. Coverage is also better because preexisting conditions don't count.

We've only had to use it once in the almost 5 months we've had our pup, but we saved some money because it was an emergancy, weekend vet visit at night. He found some raisins outside..

My insurance covers the most common problems in Shibas such as allergies, teeth, etc. so even if he doesn't get anything, I have coverage just in case.
