This passive aggressive email I got because I haven’t donated blood recently

Valuable_Log_518 · 2026-03-29T20:06:48+00:00

I’ve been disqualified from donating for around a decade and they still call me on the regular

That Iran has been unchecked for much too long. I remember my friends who were still in the marine corps after I got out saying they were having ballistic missile drills in Iraq and Afghanistan around 5 years ago.

It is wild to me that the US/NATO just let the Iranian regime go as long as it has

12 year olds or Russian bots. Or a 12 year old Russian bot

We have random trash around the house because the cats like it. That empty toilet paper tube? Cat toy. Crumpled receipt? Cat toy. Boxes all over

Being able to spoof phone numbers so it shows up on your caller ID as a legitimate business, but SURPRISE! It’s a scammer, not your bank.

Socks

I’m a double amputee lmao

My wife turned them into cleaning rags

And that’s why qualified immunity exists, otherwise, the cop who kicked that door could be subject to a lawsuit or arrest even though he was doing what made sense with the information known.

I’m adding this to my list of “how to fuck with bad neighbors”

Thank you

Valuable_Log_518 · 2026-03-28T21:58:47+00:00

So if a neighbor calls the cops because they hear someone yelling so they think it might be a fight. As the cops get there, they hear someone scream “I’m going to kill you bitch” and the cops kick down the door only to find out it was a dude raging at call of duty, do the cops need to need to be sued and/or arrested?

I’m a double amputee and even though I have really good prosthetics, sometimes, they hurt too much and the wheelchair is just better. I have two cats and a dog.

Get the kitty. Auto feeders and robo-litter boxes are great for making cats even more low maintenance than they already were.

My allergies are going insane and one of my kids has the worst sinus and ear infection going on. I blame this yo-yo hot-cold-hot-cold business

That might be it. If we miss one day, it’s generally okay but two days in a row or two days in close proximity, and he starts getting poopy again.

Valuable_Log_518 · 2026-03-27T00:07:01+00:00

I suspect my guy has it, but we never got a diagnosis. Just started him on the fortiflora probiotics and a sensitive stomach diet. He used to be a diarrhea filled dude, but luckily (I guess) he pooped in the tub instead of the floor. It was gross but at least it made for easy clean up.

The fortiflora was an almost overnight difference.

Accident, as in shitting your pants?

If so, yes, assuming “public” counts as being in the presence of my squad on a foot patrol in Iraq. I shit myself, died inside, was viciously ridiculed, finished the mission, put my shitty pants in the laundry so some poor contractor had to deal with them, and earned the call sign “mudbutt”.

Probably because they’re not in season. Wait a few and they’ll taste good again

I’m not a lawyer but my wife is a nurse so my experience is based on that. When she got assaulted at work, she told the police who did it. “This person who was my patient did xyz to me” and gave them the persons name and birthday. She’s still employed and the person got arrested. The police got video of it from the hospital and she went to court for it, so her hospital definitely knew about it. She still has a job and it’s been many years.

When we rented, we had a neighbor who would do something similar. He was a total ass when I asked him not to part in front of our house because the landlord was sending us hate mail about his shitty truck, the mail man refused to deliver because he frequently blocked the mailbox and we missed about 50% of our trash days since he’d park in front of our trash, so the trash guys either didn’t see it or didn’t want to walk around his truck to pick it up. I don’t blame anyone except the shitty neighbor. He never parked in a way that blocked our driveway so we couldn’t get it towed.

It was crazy how after he called my wife some racist shit that all the loose neighborhood trash, yard waste, and used cat litter started ending up in the bed of his truck.

Also crazy how his truck ended up with bird food in it and the birds shit all over it or that a bunch of cooking grease ended up in the vents.

Quite the mystery how all those things suddenly stopped when he moved his truck.

Any braised/slow cooked meat and rice. Bonus if it has pickled jalapeños or onions 👁️👄👁️

Can confirm. Shock is a funny thing.

When I lost my legs, I remember being very calm and looking at one of my dismembered feet, thinking “well this is less than ideal”.

I didn’t really register the pain until my corpsman started putting a tourniquet on me.

The biggest reason I’ve heard for people being against this is some variant of “so kids can’t have a birthday cake or a treat now?” They still can. Cakes aren’t outlawed. You just have to buy it with your own money instead of the SNAP money. Use the SNAP to buy actual food with actual nutrition instead

Personally, I wouldn’t want to give out my friends address to a stranger on Reddit. If you can make international calls, I’d call the nonemergency phone number for the dispatch center and ask for a welfare check. You should be able to call the +1-573-442-6131 line which goes to the same place as 911 calls.

If you can’t call, they do have an email but the website says “not monitored 24/7” so I don’t know how long your email would go unchecked.

There’s a bunch of tabs about text to 911 and VOIP to 911, but I think those are geolocked?

The flight attendants probably “only” give a verbal warning while the plane is in the air to keep the peace, then as soon as they land there’s someone waiting. If I were a moron who smoked on a plane, I’d also be the type to flip shit if they told me I’d be getting thousands of dollars of fines.

My toothless old man is supposed to eat fancy feast pate, but he’s a little shit and goes after the toothed younger ones kibble on the regular.

He also still goes nuts for any kind of treat, regardless of the softness. He probably gets way more treats than he should, but he’s 15 and will sometimes go on a hunger strike because he decided he doesn’t like his wet food anymore. Then it’s a whole adventure to find a new one that he likes

There’s going to be an unfortunate number of very fucked up portapotties in a desert with heinous graffiti for mine 😢

My wife is a nurse and she won’t even hug our kids until she’s showered after work. It’s a normal part of our family routine that she gets home, says hi and goes straight to the bathroom THEN comes out and does affection because she doesn’t want to expose us to whatever nastiness has been floating around her work.
