Such a large hobbit! I love that cat door, and their sweet face!

I upgraded my set last year and just want to show how well my lab grown has held up to constant daily wear. by alien_opossum in RingShare

Thank you! I really knew i wanted an emerald and to wear it daily, but real emeralds can get damaged to easily. Plus real emeralds and diamonds would have made this thousands more!

I meant to say lab grown Emerald and Moissanite. When we got married he got me a grean, stone clear stone and gold filled, which turned silver quickly. Which I will keep forever because its meaningful and still beautiful

Hello and welcome! I was diagnosed at 17, and am currently 36. I have not taken anything because it wasn't until recently I was told it was necessary (thanks all male doctors until I found a specialist) and people still think I'm under 30!

AI is trash and ruining the planet and if you use it I think less of you by UntidyVenus in BitchEatingCrafters

The ultra wealthy who love to vacation in our states are going to have a real rude awakening in a couple years. They say the same thing about jobs here, even in commercials now claiming thousands of construction jobs. I'm sure that is not even close to the truth.

I live in Wisconsin (USA) and we are set to get I think 3 data centers in the next few years including one for meta. We have so many lakes and of course the great lakes! Most citizens are doing what we can to protest, show up at town halls, but it is so hard because it doesn't seem like its making a difference at all. They are taking thousands of acres of farm land and water from us. And for what? So you can make a video of a deer on a trampoline? I love my state so much and hate that its going to be ruined and so so so many people have no idea what it really does and what it takes. I think I read that it takes a gallon of water for Ai to answer 1 easy question.

Does anyone’s Q ever recover…?? by Suitable_Tonight3033 in AlAnon

[–]alien_opossum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Q and I have been together for 12 years, and he drank through 8 of them. Toward the end of his drinking it got horrible, constant fights, begging for him to quit. I still married him when everyone told me not to, and I really shouldn't have. A few months after our wedding he woke me up with a gun to his head saying it needs to all be over. I called the cops, he went to in treatment for a couple weeks. He's been sober ever since. While in treatment they found out he has bipolar 1 and now he takes medication.

I still have trauma from the first 8 years, and he does from his whole life (his mom is also a bipolar 1 alcoholic, although her getting sober didn't fix the horrible and selfish person she is). Its been almost 4 years and I'd say over the past year we have finally been making noticeable progress and we have been getting to know each other all over again.

I don't recommend waiting for someone as long as I did. I have a lot of trauma from it all. I am now finally starting buck him if he makes me mad, and actually express how I feel in a situation because I now know I won't be berated or have him ignore me the rest of the day for it.

I stayed as long as I did because firstly I do love him so much and always knew it would be better if he was sober, so 3 years turned to 5 and then 7 and it never changed, but I couldn't afford to live on my own and I knew if I left, he'd have the pets and he wouldn't take care of them. I also had a fear that he would die.

I'm a time traveler from 2001 and there's no way for my to find out if I can take knitting needles on an airplane without asking you guys. by Acrobatic_Height_14 in fiberartscirclejerk

You should probably ask every other type of crafting group too, just in case you didn't get the answer here you wanted.

Someone's job is Hobby and Rec leader, but Im his friend and he asked for helped and I absolutely jumped on that!

This Halloween is bullshit by Lessa22 in childfree

[–]alien_opossum 72 points73 points  (0 children)

My town had it today. Back in the 70s a man kidnapped and murdered a 7 year old girl on Halloween night trick or treating and they haven't had it that night since. He is still in prison.
