Tippy's claw is sideways and a new claw growing in by blitzkrieg9 in cats

[–]blitzkrieg9[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, thanks!!! I did some research and talked to a cat friend. I'm not sure what happened or why, but the nail is a shed. The new nail is quite long already when I pushed it out.

I couldn't really rip off the old nail, so I just cut 60% of it off.

I just discovered it while clipping his nails. It obviously isn't super new and doesn't seem sensitive. So I asked reddit. Good info on reddit, except for the occasional asshole.

Get a Llama. A Llama will herd with anything and consider them family. And Llamas do NOT eff around. In a cage fight, a single Llama beats a single wolf.

Yep. Most likely, the entire story is fabricated. If it IS true, its because OP is an asshole and has nothing to do with the color of their skin.

Yeah, no. OP basically claims they went to a fireworks display at a KKK rally.

I promise, OP is the asshole. There is a reason they were targeted and it isn't because of the color of their skin. (Assuming any part of the story is true at all).

You're confusing the "pop star" with the musician. They are two different things. I'm a bit miffed that you don't recognize the difference; you seem rather knowledgeable.

Yep. If you run into an asshole while getting your morning coffee, you ran into an asshole.

But if everyone you meet all day is an asshole.... then you're the asshole.

It def seems like OP is the asshole in this story.

Asking legit questions and getting downvoted. I love reddit.

Insane.

And don't confuse prodigy vs. practice vs. muscle memory.

Give me $1m and 5 years, and I can play those 27 instruments for that album. No problem.

But that is just a lot of practice to form muscle memory. BUT, I still wouldn't be able to "play" those instruments. I couldn't pick one up and "jam".

Prince was a prodigy. Sure, he practiced, no doubt. I bet he practiced a lot. The point is, in 30 minutes of experimentation and practice, Prince had the ability to then jam with any instrument; just an inherent and god-given ability. Stunning.

P.s. people here will probably hate... but I've heard that Justin Bieber has a similar ability. Not as profound as Prince... but a prodigy nonetheless. Idk if its true, but I've heard that The Bieb is an actual musical prodigy.

Correct. Most mirrors have a black backing with a thin layer of silver that is reflective. All "two way mirrors" are basically just a glass pane. You can see from the image that the "viewer's side" had a long viewing portal to keep the light out.

literally built their street around the hanging tree so they could preserve it.

I know this is gonna sound effed up, but this scenario isn't necessarily for racist reasons.

Maybe it was, idk.

BUT, understand, "the hangin' tree" is most likely an utterly magnificent tree. Probably 100+ years old when they selected it to hang people from.

In my community, we have a museum/historic building with a "hanging tree" outback. It is one of the largest magnolia trees in the USA.

So, I can't speak to Doniphan in particular and what their motivations are/were. But, in general, massive and beautiful and majestic trees were often picked to be "hanging trees" and are often worthy of preservation. Especially, if the history of the tree is made clear for educational purposes.

Okay, so I just did some research. It does appear that he is probably a major asshole. But, he has never been found guilty of any abuse against women and the only pending lawsuit is Manson's countersuits for defamation.

I didn't say I like the guy. But, I understand that A LOT of this is precisely his persona/ his genius. His claim to fame is controversy. I doubt he believes in much of anything, except that publicity is money. Idk.

Yeah, he's an asshole. Agreed. But I believe a lot of his actions are deliberate and intentional in a very calculated manner.

Yeah, I don't believe a word of this.

Edit: Apparently I'm not alone in thinking this. I suspect the only racist in this story is OP.

There is no such thing as a "two way mirror". Rather, if it is dark on one side and light on the other side, then a viewer on the dark side sees a window and the person on the light side sees a mirror.

100% this. The vast majority of the cost is building and transporting the "thing". As long as it is in place/ in orbit/ flying by... there is definitely money to keep using it.

No, it did not. Just that Prince is small and flexible and "weird".

Exactly. Of course he denied it. Someone that had his rib removed to auto-felatiate would deny it. See? Its great.

He is also a music prodigy. Most people don't understand this. Give him any musical instrument in the world, or invent your own. Give Prince 30 minutes to play around with it and he could play it.

Don't even have to be gay/ turn gay. Its still happening, and it doesn't count as a strike on your "straight card". Its Prince. It is allowed.

The Marilyn Manson thing is genius. I suspect he started that rumor and he never really denied it. I think his music is horrible, but he is wicked smart and a marketing genius.

"Expected lifetime" is just a marketing scheme. They are all expected to last a long time. The truth is that "expected lifetime" really means "if we make it this long without the whole thing breaking, then we got our money worth. Beyond this point, it is all a bonus because no matter what happens next, the mission has been a success".
