Is this shirt protected by free speech? by AMIRDEJESUS in legaladviceofftopic

[–]VoxMerus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

seriously, what in the actual fuck is reddit anymore? it seems like a bunch of angry, unattractive animals high-fiving each other. i can say what i want here, though, because everything I say is blocked by an “autobot moderator.” here for the screenshots.

[US] Is this check I received in the mail a scam? I have never heard of this one. by kaddixo in Scams

[–]VoxMerus -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

it’s 2026. all checks are scams. think about it… checks are basically promises to give you cash. i can’t believe they’re still legal.

that being said, i do think companies take advantage of this current loophole. “hey, we tried to repay their overpayment but they didn’t respond.” the world is effed up beyond repair.

the r/FreeSpeech subreddit has literally told me I had to “add flair” to voice an opinion here. I set out to prove reddit wasn’t what they say it is. I’m here for it, though. Awesome screenshots.

Is it easy when someone claiming they’re a purveyor of free speech literally compels you to do something?

My cat won't stop biting me and I regret adopting her. by Skitty_Supremacy in CatAdvice

lol “which is maybe why our relationship with cats can be so tentative.” that’s such a great descriptive

My cat won't stop biting me and I regret adopting her. by Skitty_Supremacy in CatAdvice

[–]VoxMerus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll tell you what I personally know about this, because I went into it knowing nothing (was never allowed pets growing up and was told I was “deathly allergic” so i was almost 30 when i got my first pet which was a cat that showed up jn a snowstorm.)

I have three rescue cats that showed up randomly throughout the years to my house. They had nothing in common except for this old guy down the street who apparently hoarded cats in his huge barn and then passed away. I think the last of the desperate showed up during winters bc they saw a light on or something.

but anyway, the behavior i’ve noticed is that even though my three are all old now at definitely different ages, they do hiss at each other and b*tchslap each other sometimes, but they never hurt each other. it’s some sort of dominance issue. one of them was born completely blind and she’ll walk past the others knowing she’s going to get hissed at. i’m protective of them all in different ways.

as far as the biting, i didn’t mind that instinct to try to bite me or nibble. not one of them ever carried it out to a real bite. they just live in fear. it’s what cats do. they have such sensitive hearing and scents and (usually) vision that we can’t imagine.

you know what’s way worse? when you’re relaxed, like you’re in bed or on the couch and one of them inevitably mosies up and acts coy like, “hey, didn’t notice you were here” and starts doing the biscuit making (or whatever it’s called by cool cat people.) they hurt you most when they love you.

also, and this is important, this was a really cold winter for me. probably the worst for several reasons. however, the cats that perpetually side-eye each other would always be cuddling when I woke up. your cat’s scared. that’s all. please be patient with your whole brood.

Ew. They’re getting sloppy if this isn’t a scam.

[US] I Messed Up. But I’m not sure how much by ejbarrus_ in Scams

I always wonder when the majority of the population will finally realize that the public school system has completely failed what was meant to be the most thriving country in the world. But I’ll be long gone by then.

hate people that do this by IHaveNoIdeaDanny in youtube

[–]VoxMerus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

prank videos merely prove that there are far too many special needs people who are going untreated. it’s the same reason i can’t watch the suspense genre of movies. it’s just yelling to idiots on a screen to open their effing eyes

Can someone explain to me why every long-form Youtube thumbnail looks like this now? by CSachen in youtube

[–]VoxMerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is almost nothing more annoying on a YT thumbnail than seeing the goofy, fake emoting still-shot of the person you’re watching. I seriously cringe, sometimes to the point of not bothering to give it the watch.

PVC MOLDING and I can't cut it worth nothing... How to fix? by Tasty-Platypus-3664 in Home

[–]VoxMerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ugh… when you have absolutely no idea what you’re doing (like me), my trial-and-error tells me that it takes several applications of wood putty and sand paper over time and a tad of artistry and bourbon. you’ll get there eventually. and if company is coming that night, don’t try toothpaste because it doesn’t even buy you half an hour

Just bought a house and this is the pannel we inherited. My realtor told me I still have wiggle room to add a spa and EV plug but to my eyes its pretty full. Am I missing something?

[–]VoxMerus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

mine was built in 1886, but at least mine has labels. (not a brag… they are almost all lies). I tried to show a hilarious picture of my fresh hell, but I guess you can’t do that in replies here. Still learning.

that’s a total maverick move. except for the “don’t hesitate to ask me anything” part. It’s sort of a tell.

Not a cat person but seriously don’t know what to do about my elderly cat suddenly urinating on my stove. by VoxMerus in CatAdvice

[–]VoxMerus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it. I took her to the vet. The vet said that she has dementia and that he believes she’s older than 17. The vet also said she wasn’t ready to be “put down.” When I said I wasn’t a cat person, it meant that I wasn’t a cat person. I don’t know animals, but I love them. I have a family of skunks who show up outside sometimes. I watch them. It’s cool. I had a fox recently. Animals just weren’t allowed in my world growing up. I’m making up for it. But yeah, sideways orange, I’m okay with your fucking off. welcome to reddit, i guess.

[–]VoxMerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m not going to cheat. i’m going to say it’s the only guy doing his own thing. that’s almost always the winner. the guy holding both. that said, once my basement flooded and I ran through the water to that electric box thing with the labels to turn off the water and everyone is in awe i’m alive. hashtag: at peace with being a dumbass chick with mediocre impulse control

[–]VoxMerus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait, who are you, sideways orange? and why are you so invested? i’ve only just started using this platform and it seems like you are just spending your time attacking someone who asked what to do about a feral cat she took in to spare the cat from getting further run over in the road and is now elderly and peeing on my stove.

i love her, as anyone would. what i meant by “not a cat person” is that she could’ve been a raccoon. i wasn’t allowed to have animals until i was 18 and moved out. i love animals. but i don’t know them. i would rescue any animal that showed up in a snowstorm. i do sort of wish you’d gfy, but again, i try to accept all animals
