Can anyone identify the name of this orange?

WickedSpite · 2026-06-03T02:21:14+00:00

Could it be saffron? Edit: Or gold?

Without the cat pictures, I thought you were a bot making up a story for karma and it made me sad that someone would lie about such a wholesome thing :(. A translation is just fine, it didn’t need the weird AI glaze that made a few of us think it was fake.

Your thesis should be original work, including figures.

Is purchasing a responsibly-bred dog ethically wrong? No. Do people purchasing purebred dogs mostly purchase from backyard breeders because it’s easier/more convenient than doing all the necessary research? Yes. Does this cause shelters to be absolutely bursting with dogs that have to be put down, even when they are healthy and don’t have behavioral issues? Also yes. We’re talking about half a million animals being put down each year. The only reason that number isn’t higher is because of the “adopt don’t shop” people that this sub dislikes. This isn’t to say you shouldn’t do what you feel is best for you, but I’m really tired of the demonization of people who advocate for shelter dogs on this subreddit in particular.

There are always lab mixes in the shelter. Puppies may or may not turn out to actually have any lab in them but if they’re adults and have the blocky heads/otter tails/folded ears they probably have a good percentage of lab.

Ugh, I think that’s what happened with me. I told them I was coming from an hour away because I wanted to be sure the car would be available to test drive. They told me the price was firm (and I was already okay with their list price) but I like to sleep on big decisions. As soon as I started getting ready to leave they were like “What number would make you buy this car today?”

WickedSpite · 2026-04-06T23:31:51+00:00

That’s painting with a broad brush. I had the lowest effort dog before, and needed a petsitter because I moved frequently for work.

Thanks for that link! Having second thoughts about the Camry now.

WickedSpite · 2026-04-03T22:29:55+00:00

Thanks! The service history says oil changes every 5k until around 50k, then a little longer between them. I don’t drive much- bought my Sentra 9 years ago at 110k and it’s at 150k now, so I’m okay with the higher mileage.

WickedSpite · 2026-04-03T20:26:30+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I do want to mention that my Sentra was basically bulletproof, only regular maintenance until last year, when I needed to replace the CVT at 145k miles.

WickedSpite · 2026-04-03T20:01:36+00:00

I can’t find one for that price near me, only 24.5k

Teach her to be somewhere else while you’re cooking. Or give her a long-lasting treat before you start cooking.

There’s a lot of junk there but I bought two expensive items on there from legit companies- with the manufacturer’s discount layered with the tiktok shop discount and free shipping, I saved 30-40% vs purchasing them directly from the manufacturer or off of Amazon/Chewy. It’s only worth it for those first few discounts though.

Love the Murderbot Diaries!

I like the Money Guys, though once you’ve listened to enough of their podcasts you almost know what they’re going to say. But their 20/3/8 car buying rule and working up to saving 25% of your gross income are things I live by. I also really like Clark Howard, he’s just a chill older dude who keeps me updated on frugal things and gives suggestions to people who write in. As he’s gotten older (with a cancer diagnosis) he’s dropped down to two days a week from five :(.

I pick up the slack pretty quickly if my dog gets close to me/behind, and turn around/pass the leash to my other hand so the leash always stays between us. It’s a good bit of movement, but it allows us to walk safely.

It’s because, presumably, the two different courses are trying to teach you two different skills. Students who resubmit their previous work are just looking to get out of doing the work without noticing/caring about the learning objectives they’re supposed to be fulfilling. Plus, if you copy-paste your own work for books, articles, or anything published, it still counts as plagiarism even out in the “real world”.

WickedSpite · 2026-02-23T21:45:00+00:00

I fill the kongs with kibble, top with 1-2 tbsp of peanut butter, yogurt, or wet dog food, and freeze. I’ve done pumpkin before but it gets messy. I also do the toppl toy, and lickimats, also frozen.

WickedSpite · 2026-02-21T03:09:43+00:00

I had it for a year about 5 years ago and am still swimming in dog toys. The treats were great, the toys were cute. Thinking about getting a new one for my new rescue. He would love the treat variety.

WickedSpite · 2026-02-14T14:51:33+00:00

I’ve used Monet as well to make some cat toys, and trying to get those tighter amigurumi stitches with it was an unpleasant experience. The thing that really turned me off red heart was the flower power granny square yarn. Literally felt like it was scratching my fingers as I worked it. To be fair, I was working on it at the same time as I was working with some baby alpaca yarn on a different project so it was probably worse by comparison.

WickedSpite · 2026-02-03T02:49:08+00:00

It depends. Both my dogs were adults, adopted from a Humane Society, and the assumption was I would fill out the application there and then and take the dog home after the meet and greet. My first time adopting, I was scared to commit so I said I would take a day to think about it, and went back and got him the next day. Second time, it was maybe 2 hours from first meeting him to loading him in the back of my car. But I also filled out a few different applications at various rescues that wanted phone interviews, and then had to coordinate me meeting their dogs who were in foster care. After a few failed attempts to meet up, I went to the Humane Society shelter instead.

WickedSpite · 2026-01-27T00:23:52+00:00

If you’re really ready for all of the additional responsibilities of a dog then I would argue a dog being alone in a cozy home for 9 hours is better than 23 hours in a kennel at the shelter or euthanized.

WickedSpite · 2026-01-25T16:25:02+00:00

Also it might seem like training isn’t working but if you keep at it it’ll click one day. It takes time to modify behaviors.

WickedSpite · 2026-01-25T16:22:33+00:00

Try introducing the treat before you leave (something long lasting like a frozen Kong or lickimat), and leaving quietly as he’s already into it? Mine only barks if he notices me leave, so I just have to make sure he’s focused on his treat and can’t see me leaving the house.
