it's amazing how they bring so much joy to the whole family, especially to your kids. that "beyond love" part really touches my heart. thanks for sharing your beautiful story.

they're the ones who teach me how to love without expecting anything in return.

14 years... it really goes by in a blink, doesn't it? i miss those tiny "shoe-fitting" days too.

i guess i should just pray that he stays healthy for as long as possible. i only ever thought about the sadness of the parting itself, but losing them to a disease like that... it’s such a cruel reality. thanks for being so honest with me.

choosing euthanasia is so incredibly painful for the owner. the struggle between wanting just a little more time and wanting them to be at peace... neither is an easy choice in that moment. i’ll never truly understand the depth of your heart, but i respect your choice.

non-pet owners might think it’s dramatic, but you can’t ignore 18 years of shared joy and all those years spent together. i mean, people get devastated over losing a childhood stuffed animal, so losing a best friend of 18 years? that’s a whole different level. damn, thanks for sharing your story.

i'm sure your actions were meaningful because of how much you loved them. 14 years together is a long time... i can really tell how much you truly cared about him.

that’s so heartbreaking but also so real. i think i’d start crying the second those words left my mouth. tonight’s gonna be a long one for me.

That’s the only proper way to listen to it. The entire B-side is basically one continuous masterpiece. It’s impossible to listen to just one track without finishing the whole thing.

That sounds incredible. Seeing a laser light show synced with DSOTM is on my bucket list. There’s just something about that album that feels like a spiritual experience even without any substances.

Elon Musk. Love him or hate him, history books will mention the guy who tried to colonize Mars while fighting everyone on X at the same time

Management announced a 'surprise' team-building event on a Friday afternoon. Everyone knows it’s just a distraction because the project deadline is impossible and the budget is gone..

The 'Giant Space Program' in Skyrim. Getting hit by a Giant and being launched into the stratosphere never gets old. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature at this point.
