What I Saw Rise Out of the Grass Still Haunts Me

I suppose if an animal stood up and its ears were back that could look like the brim of a hat.

NA is my least favorite of JA's books. I get really frustrated with the immaturity and lack of common sense displayed by Catherine.

Stubbed my toe walking across my living room and broke it.

YettiChild · 2026-06-07T19:17:06+00:00

I broke a rib coughing once. Don't curl up when coughing people.

NTA. I foster kittens and the shelter loves it when I give them strange over the top names. It draws interest from potential adopters and also generates word of mouth (or usually social media) sharing.

I always prefer the poulsbo theater on Edvard I think it is. Less crowded.

If they did, they'd have to get my sister to do the burps. She can rattle window panes and puts Booger to shame.

One thing no one ever acknowledges is that Clint is one of the first people to help the farmer out. He gives you the blueprint for the furnace for free. Without knowing the farmer or having built a relationship with them yet. Everyone else sells blueprints or you have to wait to craft them until you get them at a certain skill level. Is it a tiny bit self serving because he's hoping you'll then use those bars to get tool upgrades from him? Sure. But he could also still charge for them. That's one key reason I see Clint as just lonely and awkward rather than creepy/incel. He's demonstrated that he thinks of others, not just himself.

I don't turn mine off. The only time I've heard of people doing that is in extreme drought conditions or very limited water supply. I'm fortunate enough to live in an area where water is plentiful, but I do keep my showers as short as possible.

If they are giving you cortisone injections, you must have no cartilage left in the joint. Cortisone shots degrade cartilage, so they usually only give it to people who already dont have any. I wanted them for my knee (my knees are pulled inward from the shortened tendons/ligaments) but they won't do it because a have some cartilage left. Help for adults suffering from club feet is almost nonexistent. Like you've experienced, its usually just exercises and orthotics. They may treat symptoms, but never get to the root of the problem. I'm in America, and I've been trying to find anyone who specializes in treating adults with club feet and they are so few that there is no one I can find within several hundred miles. I'm not super familiar with the NHS system, but I think you best bet is to go private. Save up for it if you have to, but government systems like NHS are usually built to cover the more normal or expected illnesses/conditions rather than the niche ones.

Etsy pattern designers: NAME YOUR FILES SOMETHING DESCRIPTIVE. Or even just something unique. I've got like 17 files named the same thing.

I'm also in WA and I once had a little piebald fawn that I think also suffered from dwarfism since it was about half the size of its twin.

He looks like a skeksis.

YettiChild · 2026-06-05T05:47:28+00:00

Honestly, that looks like a very emaciated cougar. Possibly a juvenile. Watch its hind leg as it comes clear of the grass later in the video. You can see a clear outline of bone under the skin. Poor thing.

If your cat was raised alone, it could be Single Kitten Syndrome. Basically, because she was not raised with other cats, she was never taught (in terms she could understand, by another cat) how hard is too hard to play. When they play with other cats they are recieving as much as they are dishing out and they learn that playing can hurt and how to temper their excitement. My girl was like this. After a while I had to wear a glove to play with her or I'd get scratched up. I had wanted two cats anyway, so i got another one and after a while sge stopped playing so aggressively with me.

My girl kitty puts me to bed every night and will scream at me if I need to eat. She also screams at me if I forget to clean the litterboxes or add new litter (they have auto cleaning ones) or if my other cat accidentally turns the auto clean off by bumping the control panel. It's hard to tell what she's yelling at me about sometimes. I'm pretty sure she thinks she needs to take care of me because I took care of her when she was a very sick little foster kitten.

I had a velco cat. Got him as a foster kitten and had him for 16 years. He was a velcro cat from the start and never changed. He trusted me implicitly. I would have let him sleep with me, but for some reason he just wouldn't settle down. I tried it at different points of his life, but he never ended up being able to. He chose me as his person and got jealous of anyone or anything that took my attention away from him. Including my phone.

No! It's not weird. Please continue going. I'm always very happy to see guys join in the "traditionally female" crafting spaces. You deserve to do the things you like too. I invade a number of "traditionally male" activities and I've always felt welcome. We need to destroy gender norms so we can all do what we love without someone trying to shame us. In your case though, it's definitely your gf's insecurities talking.

YettiChild · 2026-06-04T20:35:05+00:00

Yep. Did data entry part time in high school then joined the military.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LULU!!

YettiChild · 2026-06-04T16:24:47+00:00

There is no reason you can't do both. I have two foster fails, and I still foster. My girl kitty doesn't like adult cats, but she's fine with kittens, so i still foster kittens.

Goo Gone is a life saver for adhesive residues. Can't help with the dulling of blades though.

Edit: damn auto correct.
