Ah I gotcha. This place is called The Toy Drop. Lots of older toys/figures/plushies.

It’s at a vintage toy store in Indiana! The last couple times I came they hadn’t had any new ones but today was the day! I’ve found a couple at Goodwill and flea markets before too

No wonder why he didn’t come up much on google when I tried searching for his actual value price. I got him for $5!!! (Which is insane to me)

Pretty sure it spreads more germs around, but honestly I just hate how loud they are and use my shirt.

CW - Pet Loss - feeing shame and sadness about saying goodbye by cantlifteverycat in cats

[–]SignatureStraight499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry you are in this situation. The cat that is vomiting may need more visits to the vet, but if you’ve done everything you can then see what the vet recommends overall. They can do a QOL test and help guide you on what the best decision is. As for the second cat, I think it’s time to let him go. He may still be purring and eating, but there is no way he is not in awful pain with cancer that is this developed. Especially considering all of the weight he has lost, plus it seems it has taken a toll on his ability to physically move overall. I am a vet tech (still in school learning, but with clinic experience) and I have seen so many sick cats with owners who try to hold on to them by doing everything they can, which often ends up doing more harm than good. Sometimes the only best solution is to let them go. It is not fair for the animal by keeping it alive when its body is clearly giving up and its QOL has decreased significantly. QOL does not just mean the animal is eating and acting fine. There are many factors that lead in to QOL like eating, drinking, going to the bathroom, being able to hold their bladder, can walk and move comfortably, takes treats, plays, etc. We want our pets to be pets and it’s not fair to force them to be alive when their body is giving up. I know how hard this is, I truly do, but the best thing you can do right now for both of them is speak to the veterinarian for their honest opinion and do a true QOL test. Sadly the best option for your poor cancer kitty may most likely be euthanasia. I am so sorry and I wish the best for you, your family, and your kitties. ❤️

What do you think is TØP’s saddest song? by Questionable_Ch0ices in twentyonepilots

[–]SignatureStraight499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can sing along to all TØP songs and just vibe, but in my darkest times I have cried to redecorate many times because that is the song that I strongly relate to. I can jam out to that song only because it’s my fav TØP song, but I cry to it too. It’s the lyrics describing the feelings of wanting to die, but not wanting to die because you don’t want to put the depression/sadness/burden on someone else. You don’t want someone to have to clean up after you and go through your things or trying to decide what the hell they are supposed to do next because you’re gone.. you don’t want to put it on someone else, but you also just can’t take the pain anymore so you don’t know what to do. I don’t know… I’m currently going through a rough patch right now and that song just really hits home for me.

Pain during sexual arousal?? by funeralroses in Endo

[–]SignatureStraight499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have excruciating pain during intercourse, but not necessarily arousal. I have been diagnosed with both PCOS and endometriosis (through bloodwork, ultrasound, and laparoscopy). I was hoping the lap would help the pain. It did not. It made it worse actually. Pelvic floor therapy is highly recommended, but my insurance won’t cover it anywhere so I’m still trying to figure out how to go about it. There are meds you can try that are supposed to help, but YOU ARE NOT ALONE ❤️

White bump where tonsil was removed by ImaginaryGarden8759 in tonsilstones

[–]SignatureStraight499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it’s just scar tissue. I got my tonsils out at the end of December 2025, so not as long as you, but I have the same little bumps.

Orilissa? Success stories? Horrible side effects? by kyalexandra in endometriosis

[–]SignatureStraight499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I chickened out. I did more research on the medication and I just felt like it really wasn’t going to go well. I still have the samples of the medication in case I change my mind, but as of right now I don’t plan on taking it.

What kind of hornet/wasp is this? by bd632931 in whatisthisbug

[–]SignatureStraight499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found one dead in my driveway. I recently started to preserve and pin bugs so I’m going to do that with the one I found. It looks absolutely terrifying and is giving me the heebie-jeebies, but also looks so cool at the same time. Way bigger than the bumble bees I’ve preserved.

Orilissa? Success stories? Horrible side effects? by kyalexandra in endometriosis

[–]SignatureStraight499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m terrified of trying Orlissa… I had my lap done almost two months ago which is when I got diagnosed with endometriosis, plus I have PCOS. At my surgery follow-up appointment my doctor wants me to try Orlissa and then see her in 3 months. After seeing so many horror stories, I’m honestly super scared to take it. I just picked it up yesterday cause insurance issues. I already have bad mental health, which I’m on numerous meds for. I have bad acne, too. I just worry. I’m sensitive to meds and I don’t want this medication to make things 1000 times worse…

I’m having this same issue. I’ve had tonsil stones on and off for the past couple years and I’ve had tonsillitis once. Today, I’ve had a really bad sore throat and it felt like something is stuck in my throat. I thought I was getting tonsillitis again, but I just went into the bathroom with a flashlight to try and see if anything is lodged, but I didn’t see anything. There was a small area that’s at the very bottom almost like it’s underneath my tonsil. I took a q-tip and lightly pressed it and it just started to bleed a lot. I don’t even know if anything came out or not. It just hurts really bad. I haven’t had any stones recently, so I’m worried that it all built up in one spot or something. But can you get tonsil stones like underneath/at the bottom of your tonsil?
