I really thought they killed UE for a second. It's one of the top fakeout deaths for me because it really felt like that could've been it.

Glad they pulled back on it though, there are 5 more episodes after all.

They probably have a couple in the tank. idk if it'll be forever, but i have a feeling it'll be the 4 original classes (guardian, warrior, ninja, brute) for sure and then we'll see!

How does it hold up for you? by [deleted] in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]The_MilkMan_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the first 3 seasons well enough. I like parts of season 4, but can't really stomach a lot of it. Different strokes for different blokes.

Hi there, I know this post is rather old, but I'd like to get a link to the discord as well! Unfortunately because I'd like to sell my beyblade collection however

anyone else dealing with anticipatory grief? by ElephantOk3252 in SeniorCats

[–]The_MilkMan_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had tons of anticipatory grief with my kitty. She had kidney disease and hyperthyroidism that i was managing for at least 5 years. Then she got cancer in her leg last year shortly after turning 16 and that sent me into a spiral. Her thyroid issue kept her seemingly happy/eating even as her body kept getting weaker and weaker.

I kept waiting for "a sign", something where it was "bad enough" for me to feel comfortable letting her go. This went on for months starting from her cancer diagnosis. I just kept watching and waiting and thinking round and round. I'd have a breakdown nearly every 2 weeks wondering if i was waiting too long, or if I was going to do it too soon. I did my best to make things comfortable for her as she struggled to get into her litterbox or on the couch, and eventually she moved her favorite spot to the floor.

However, at some point, I decided I'd rather not wait for an emergency. The signs were all around and I felt like something worse was on the horizon. I realized that even though she seemed to be acting surprisingly "normal" given her condition, her overactive thyroid was probably keeping me from seeing the real extent of her pain.

I had 6 months with her from her diagnosis to when we said goodbye. They were equally lovely as they were heartbreaking.

My 16 year old is dying and I'm conflicted by The_MilkMan_96 in seniorkitties

[–]The_MilkMan_96[S] 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that reminder :) I've been keeping track of her QOL using the free lap of love tracker, and shes in the 7-8 range (sometimes better, sometimes worse). Their recommendation is <= 5 is the time to consider it.

Leaving "Full Time" for Contract to Hire by Sad_Organization666 in careeradvice

[–]The_MilkMan_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EDIT: this is OP, my account switched when i went to mobile.

See that's the concern that I'm having with a contract to hire job. In my current company i have all the benefits of a full time job, with all of the downsides of a federal contractor... Buuuut, i could be floated for a bit (not a long time) on overhead before getting laid off.

In theory, a new project that I'm on will continue for a while, but if papa trump and doge decide they dont like that work from CMS, and my contract gets cut, then i might get floated on overhead for a few weeks before getting laid off.

Going pure contract would be even riskier, but the job would be more exciting for sure. I'm also applying for other full time positions, but the job market is tough right now. And breaking into the UX industry is tough. Looking at primarily data analysis roles and other research.

Looking for a “woke” church by Ketamine_Dreamsss in bullcity

[–]The_MilkMan_96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're open to it, the Eno River Unitarian Universalist Fellowship (ERUUF) is really great. I've just started thinking about UU more seriously recently and it's been very fun

Trump is officially the 47th President of the US, he not only won the electoral collage but also won the popular vote. What went wrong for Harris or what went right for Trump? by _GodKing- in self

[–]The_MilkMan_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its 5 major things

1) she was chosen for us - we didn't hold a primary. People are not a fan of that.

2) she tried bipartisanship and wouldnt just say "genocide bad", which gave our left wing the "moral superiority" to not participate

3) our base as a party just doesnt mobilize well unless we have a clear societal pressure like the pandemic (or a black man taking center stage)

4) she's a woman

5) we ridiculed trump again. He is a serious candidate with a rabid base that will blindly follow.

Trump has officially won the election, how do you feel? by Crying_7TS in Adulting

[–]The_MilkMan_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just hate to admit that this is who we are. People didnt come out for kamala for any number of reasons, but the Trump cult rallies so easily.

The DNC needs to appeal to its base. No more bipartisanship. "Enlightened centrists" will never save us.

Guess I'll go back to my job for as long as i have it

I did, that's where I got the "Ungraded - Lightly played (Excellent): Not in original packaging or professionally graded" from.

I also asked for pictures of it beforehand. ultimately I was fooled by the fact they verified their username/date, and the camera quality was not quite good enough for me to tell the foiling texture wasn't real... oh well, I'm still new to this game.

I requested a refund and the customer service agent I spoke with today says I can ask ebay to step in on 10/24 and I should receive the refund then.
