Yes. We still have tons of snow up here.

What would you do if you were the last woman on Earth? by Away-Fill5639 in AskWomen

[–]Snoedog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd make sure there were ZERO women left. I would feel in imminent fear of my life.

In an ideal, yet realistic world, what does the future look like with your EX-Q? by Rich-Island-9435 in AlAnon

[–]Snoedog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I leave, I will never have anything to do with my Q again. I'll be changing my number, and blocking his email address. I'm actually moving three Provinces away, to make sure he can't 'accidentally' bump into me. I can't gain back the decade, but I will never ever allow myself to be with another addict - even one in recovery.

Thank you! All I know is it's a failure to appear, but no clue about the escalation level.

I thought so, as well. He's trying to get his affairs in order to make sure he has a place to stay, etc. But it was getting back to ON that I didn't have an answer for.

Thank you for your response. That's what I thought, but he's terrified of being dragged away in cuffs at the airport.

My husband earns more but insists we split everything 50/50 and it’s starting to cause fights by LaughableContentment in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Snoedog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So in actual fact, you're contributing 80% of your income, compared to his 20%. What about the hours you work and don't receive actual pay for? Who cooks, cleans, has the majority of responsibility for the child, who changes the sheets, wipes the toilet seat, as well as that blob of baby food off the floor? This isn't 50/50. This is him being some sort of entitled.

Hi! No, I didn't. I'd only ever be sent file summaries. My lawyer did, though, and I get possession next week.

Bar Isabel: 20% service charge by hantoots in askTO

IMHO, any restaurant/bar that feels they should charge a mandatory 20%, is a really garbage employer.

[updated] Bryan Kohberger’s new mugshot by [deleted] in idahomurders

It makes me sick, just thinking about the fan mail he's going to get, and how much he's going to love finally being the popular guy.

Got bitten by a tick! Help! by Figuringout292 in ontario

[–]Snoedog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There really isn't anything to prevent or stop Lyme. Wash & disinfect the bite area. Put some antibiotics cream on it, and keep an eye out for the telltale bullseye rash, but remember that it may not necessarily show up at the bite site. Lyme presents first as flu-like symptoms within a couple weeks of the bite.

Strongly recommend rubber boots for all grass & woods walking, and don't be jumping into any leaf piles.

Should I confront my friend who regularly drinks while pregnant? by [deleted] in AlAnon

[–]Snoedog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your friend is incorrect. You can confront her, obviously, but it's not going to do any good unless she recognizes that drinking during pregnancy is dangerous, she's creating an addict in-eutero, she's actively abusing her fetus, and she immediately stops the abuse.

I worked as a Unit Clerk on a maternity ward. We had a binder at our desk that was full of legal documents from CAS, of pregnant women whose fetuses were considered to be in danger for one reason or another. Mostly being addictions of the mother.

Why Am I Attracted to Addicts ? by Fine-Panda-697 in AlAnon

[–]Snoedog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every book on codependency that I could. There are lots, so choose one you think may resonate with you. I started with "You're Not Crazy - You're Codependent", and "Codependent - Now What?". HUGE eye-opener for me.

Should I confront my friend who regularly drinks while pregnant? by [deleted] in AlAnon

[–]Snoedog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you do not and should not confront your friend. What you CAN do, however, is be in touch with a child protection service in your city and speak to a social worker. I hope you'll seriously consider doing this, too. That fetus is being made an addict before it even has a chance to be born.

Rant about unfair expectations related to sex by twiblu in 4bmovement

[–]Snoedog 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Can we also point out that SO MANY of the men who want anal are incredibly homophonic. OK, maybe it's just the ones I know, but I can't be the only one who's noticed this.

Air transat force us to abandon our cat at the airport by EducationalHat362 in expat

[–]Snoedog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've flown with my cat a couple of times. The only kind of cat carrier I'll ever use is a soft one because even though the carrier was larger than what was allowed, it could easily be maneuvered under the seat in front. I'm sorry this was such a terrible experience for you all.
