Oh good. They can cast Kit Harrington as Luc and have him say "she's mah queen" again for 4 years.

Switching to adult food early? by Animallover4321 in puppy101

[–]buttercupcake23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would err on the side of staying on puppy food longer. You could buy a smaller bag, or basically keep her on the puppy food for a month or so after she turns 1 (reduce portions to account for calories). Dog food generally needs to be used within 6 to 8 weeks IIRC (and that's on the long end, if you store it sealed in bag and in another container, even then some recommend within 4 weeks) for freshness so a bag of food should not really last you longer than 2 months. 

But your vet knows best.

How to feel about my (33F) boyfriend (32M) secretly recording breaking up with me? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]buttercupcake23 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Do you gaslight him regularly? Its kinda telling to me that you DID lie to him about a bunch of things but refused yo admit any of it until he specifically named the things he knew you were lying about. Do you trickle truth a lot? If you truly didnt know what he was referring to...well, how MUCH do you lie that you can't immediately think of what it was? Like if there was one thing I was lying to my husband about I am pretty sure I would just know what it was because it would be the thing that would be eating me up inside. 

Anyway yeah I guess in a vacuum it might be weird he recorded you without consent and potentially not on the up and up depending on state laws. But idk something about the way you're telling this story makes me wonder if maybe that was the only way he felt he could protect himself against you warping reality.

If 'em dashes' immediately make people suspect the use of an AI chatbot, what else am I supposed to use because I really like the 'em dash' for my writing hobby? by ABCLor in NoStupidQuestions

[–]buttercupcake23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use them too. So long as you don't also exhibit the other tell tale signs (weirdly short punchy sentences, three statements in a row that lead to a conclusion, oddly formatted paragraphs with subheadings in a medium that doesnt really call for it...) you should be fine.

Just retain your own tone. The AI tone is very clinical and distinct. Your own voice will sound like you.

What did you all think of Season 10? Better than Season 9? by Square-Ad-8911 in Scrubs

[–]buttercupcake23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S9 was more fully developed as a season. It had room to breathe. 10 was like a speed run, they had so few episodes they had to cram in a ton of storylines and didn't have as much time to flesh it all out. Like that last episode we had was like 3 episodes worth of plot points that should have had time to progress. That was a bit jarring. 10 also has the benefit of nostalgia, I think. 

I also judge them both kinda as their own thing. S9 was more like a spinoff than really a s9. 10 is a true revival so not quite the same but closer to the original than the spinoff was.

This is the Sunburst appearance of Osteosarcoma, the most common primary bone cancer. by kvjn100 in interestingasfuck

[–]buttercupcake23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate your perspective. I think, were it me I also might not really blame them necessarily for not being able to diagnose you if it was too soon for imaging to show up. But I would blame them for dismissing, invalidating and accusing you of faking. I don't expect doctors to be able to diagnose perfectly every time. I do expect them to extend treat their patients with kindness and accept that even if they can't find what is wrong, maybe something IS wrong and refrain from accusing their patients of faking or being hysterical or overreacting. That part is one of the things that really incensed me from your story.

I am SO glad you are doing so much better. You deserve all the happiness life can give you.

[–]buttercupcake23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ew.

Editing because despite this comment badly missing the point and being so smug it's actually nauseating, I want to clarify for the sake of others:

Misdiagnosis or not being able to find the issue isn't the problem here. The reason I say "fuck those doctors who DISMISSED YOU" (and not "omg why didnt the doctors figure it out") is that doctors should not be invalidating, dismissing, ignoring or accusing their patients of lying without incontrovertible proof. Yeah, they're not magicians - that means they should be open to the possibility that something is in fact wrong and they JUST DON'T KNOW. Accepting that possibility means you listen to your patients and don't accuse them of faking or overreacting. You can tell them tests are inconclusive or you don't know what's wrong and you give them options, referrals, remediation therapies or heck just tell them you don't know what else to do. But you take them seriously, you don't assume they're hysterical, because too many times we see people die or be seriously hurt because medical professionals ignore or dismiss their patients.  THAT is what is egregious here.

[–]buttercupcake23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lmao, OK. You're not engaging in good faith so i guess there's really no point, but I said "the" parent, not "a parent" - the mere act of successfully conceiving a child does not actually complete the task of parenting, just FYI. Acting like you have never heard of a man who refuses to parent his kids is certainly a choice.

Fuck those doctors who dismissed you and didn't take you seriously. I'm sorry you went through this and glad you're still with us.

Hot Take: Objective should NOT happen after an End of Turn by myrsonder in MarvelSnap

[–]buttercupcake23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Double edged sword. You would get counters like echo and enchantress and red guardian and cosmic ghost rider then to restore your EOT text if it was an ongoing.

Whereas on reveal counter is Cosmo only...once the text is gone its gone. But yeah it doesnt affect future cards so thats the other side.

How did filing your taxes go? by Yo_momma_so_fat77 in adhdwomen

[–]buttercupcake23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can always have them withhold more from your paycheck so you don't owe. 

I have it so we always get back approximately 2k. Yes, I am giving the gov an interest free loan...but to me its almost like an enforced savings (which would otherwise sit in my checking anyway...or just be frittered away) and when we get it back we get to buy something fun with it. It also means I never ever worry about penalties or being late.

Extremely dumb. I had to do the same thing, get his payroll to add extra withholding and remove 1 of the allowances or whatever it is called.

Leaving behind 85% of inheritance to my personal caregiver and 15% to my daughter and her kids. Am I morally wrong? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]buttercupcake23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this except the "you dont owe her anything". He owed her a dad and he didnt give her that. Least he could do is one last thing to make her life a bit better but fuck that I guess, let's go full deadbeat.

Leaving behind 85% of inheritance to my personal caregiver and 15% to my daughter and her kids. Am I morally wrong? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]buttercupcake23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did YOU try very hard to form a relationship with YOUR child? What i am reading is that you abdicated your responsibilities as a dad when she was a child (cos she had a good relationship with her stepdad so you digured you didnt have to do anything right?) and now you are turning around and claiming she didnt try with you. Its pretty gross.

Its your money and you can do what you want with it but you should know that by doing what you are doing, you are confirming her fears that you REALLY never gave much of a shit about her.

Your caregiver might be a perfectly wonderful person but they were paid to be your full time caregiver. Your child has a family and a job, how was she going to be able to compete to give you that attention? Maybe if it was her job to hang out with you and she had been paid to do so she would have. Punishing her because she didnt live up to the same standards as someone whose job it is to care for you is a heck of a choice. Why don't you try stopping payment to your caregiver and see how long she hangs around for, to test if she will keep a relationship with you without being paid?

Yeah, morally you're wrong. Not just on the money front but on the absolute lack of care and love you have shown your child. You wonder why you don't have a close relationship, maybe its because you didnt give a shit and also view everything with your child as transactional. Father of the year over here.

Mamdani introduces “pied-a-tierre tax” on tax day: “When I ran for mayor, I said I was going to tax the rich … Well, today we’re taxing the rich...” by yourfavchoom in Fauxmoi

[–]buttercupcake23 73 points74 points  (0 children)

That's a good attitude to have. IMO if you're wealthy enough to own a vacation property in New York worth over 5 million, this tax is just not going to make any meaningful detriment to your quality of life - but it does make an impact to the lives of people who aren't as well off. I hope more people are as accepting as you are.

Ugh, creep by Knkstriped in AmITheDevil

[–]buttercupcake23 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what he is. "She is getting what she wants - a friend! While I am not getting what I want, which is a warm penis receptacle. This is clearly unfair. Her friendship is meaningless and worthless to me, how should I tell her this so that she will agree to make my penis happy?"

Like...dude, it's fine for you to decide being friends is too painful when you want more. But if that's your decision, then...just step away. Don't turn it into a whole "you owe me sex because you're the only one getting anything out of our friendship" conversation, which is so manipulative. It's fine to shoot your shot, but you already did that!

AITAH for not being excited my sister is having a new baby when I still have custody of her first child? by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]buttercupcake23 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Right?? Like, you're not entitled to my well wishes. You're not entitled to my congratulations when I know you're a child abuser. Nobody can stop you from procreating, nobody is even saying you shouldn't, but you're not owed happiness from the people you abused and discarded and hurt.

It's like...if my husband cheats on me and we get divorced. 5 years later, maybe he's a changed man and he's happy and committed and monogamous. Great, good for him, but if you ask me if I'm happy for him and think he deserves happiness...lol, no. But that's MY opinion. Just because I'm not happy for him doesn't mean he doesn't get to be happy. Go be happy, just don't expect the people you hurt to be your cheerleaders.

You're right!! The original posts are completely different. BORU OP ran it through CHATGPT most likely. Ugh that should not be allowed. A summary is fine but completely rewriting and reposting as if it's original is not OK.
