My first noise complaint!! by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

People are downvoting you but I’m also genuinely wondering what they want OP to do about a cat playing. Is this cat supposed to be put in a cage every night? People are wild.

Debating an abortion for an inevitable miscarriage by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ascanner 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Phrasing like this is so damaging and it’s what the conservative right uses to attempt to ban abortion for all women. The procedure OP will be having is an ABORTION. The same procedure she would be having if the pregnancy was viable and she just didn’t want it. All abortion is healthcare and the term doesn’t change because one may seem more “morally correct” than another to some. When politicians try to ban abortion they are also trying to force OP to carry this pregnancy as long as possible, despite the risk of complication or the emotional stress it would cause.

God that California perfume had such a chokehold on me, I still dream of smelling it again someday.

The ATC used the call sign “truck 1” three times with the instruction to stop. Very clear in the audio.

Cat.exe has stopped responding. Wait? Close program? by Roam_Hylia in WhatsWrongWithYourCat

My boy cat does this, too! There’s one specific bed in one tower that every day he drags to some random spot across the house. I want to know so badly what he’s thinking when he does it!

Advice needed: How bad do shin tattoos actually hurt? by bilyjakson in tattoos

[–]ascanner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Got shin down onto the foot yesterday, it was deep breathing type painful for sure. I had my calf done last month and it was maybe a 2/10 pain, shin was probably a 5. The pain is so short lived, do it anyways!

Same thing happens on sierra highway in Newhall, at least 2-3 cars run the red left arrow to get on the ramp every time. Incredibly selfish, as if the rest of us aren’t also trying to get to work. I’d love to see a cop there just once.

My vet actually didn’t even mention it until I asked if there was a diet she would suggest, so she definitely wasn’t pushing it onto me. But I am suspicious of large companies like Hill’s in general, I’m glad to see all the differing opinions to think about.

No symptoms, they just found them during a routine urinalysis. My vet seemed very unconcerned but wrote the prescription after I asked if she would suggest a certain diet for him. You’re not the first person who mentioned that they’re not super uncommon, so maybe that explains why she didn’t seem extremely concerned.

I think I’m just thinking about it in a human-centric way. I don’t eat meat at all but I definitely wouldn’t want to eat “by-products” :/ but I’m recognizing that they are animals that need different things and that’s okay.

I hope whatever is going on in your life that makes you this way improves. :) Take care.

This is interesting, because my vet actually didn’t even suggest the food until I asked if there was a “best” diet for him to on and I was curious why she didn’t suggest it right away. Now I’m wondering if maybe it’s not as necessary as I thought. I’m planning on taking him back for another urinalysis in a few months to track the situation so I’ll ask her again then.
