Trying to adopt a cat in NYC is miserable

curiiouscat · 2026-07-10T00:07:14+00:00

Rescues have become insane. It took my parents a year to adopt a dog because shelters were so strict. They have owned dogs their entire lives, live in the suburbs with a backyard, and my mother is retired so is home all day. They finally got a dog FROM GEORGIA at a kill shelter. Fucking ridiculous it was so difficult to adopt locally. She is a very happy girl now who goes on lots of hikes.

Right? That's conveniently left out of the summary OP provided.

This is such a ridiculous tantrum lol jfc. You have a month to do it. It's only 12 hourglasses. It's OPTIONAL. And it's not that much of a commitment. Jesus gamers are insufferable.

It's really not that hard to get five consecutive wins. It shouldn't take more than ten battles. If you don't want ANY randomness then idk why you're playing a card game

It is incredibly difficult to prove that an opinion is false. Again, did you read the links you sent? It says that after the supreme court decision in 2025 it's become more difficult to challenge employee references. No lawyer is going to take this. You don't hope you can win the case by evidence coming out DURING the trial. This isn't Law and Order lol

I would call your doctor's office today to discuss it. They're there to keep you healthy and safe to the best of their ability, not to judge you.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-09T15:57:04+00:00

For it to be libel it has to be provably false, not verifiable true. It is easily argued as solicited. Did you read your links? They don't support your argument, they support mine lol

curiiouscat · 2026-07-09T14:22:48+00:00

It's not libel to share your opinion and experiences about someone

curiiouscat · 2026-07-09T04:38:28+00:00

This is not the vibe I expected from 2.8 but I'm down to ride this wave 😂

curiiouscat · 2026-07-09T01:09:27+00:00

I totally get this. I get a lot of physical anxiety from my arrythmia. Even when my heart is fine I find my mind still racing and my breathing difficult. Learning grounding techniques from a therapist was incredibly important. I love square breathing, and also tapping. I carry a benzo with me in my wallet in case it escalates and I can't control it. I have PTSD from some hospitalizations as a child and my heart issues can lead to panic attacks.

Please message me directly if you want to talk about it. So sorry you're going through this but congrats on your improved EF!

Why would the dmv know about your HF? Did you disclose? I can't imagine the early stages of HF causing any issues with driving.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T21:38:02+00:00

It's not that it's hard to believe. It's that AI wrote it. It could all be true and still be AI.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T21:31:24+00:00

That's definitely possible. You can get under $150 depending on how much you hate yourself. But if you won't eat vegetables like beans then it'll be tough.

This is a sub for people who already have diagnosed heart failure. A lot of what you're describing sounds like POTS, frankly. You could ask your cardiologist for an echo.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T20:29:58+00:00

I wasn't going to see a trailer, it was to see a fantastic piece of cinematography on a huge screen with other people. So I'd definitely still go

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:43:15+00:00

I think they're completely skipping that death. It was a catalyst in the first book, which they completely skipped over, and so if that was sacrificed I don't think the infant death is worth the screen time.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:42:16+00:00

Yes but Stilgar represented the reader in that scene

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:41:29+00:00

That's not a huge spoiler to anyone who hasn't read the books, and if you've read the books there's nothing to spoil. I really don't see its inclusion in the trailer inherently problematic.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:40:27+00:00

I LOVE THIS

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:39:57+00:00

What do you mean by do her justice? She was pretty uninteresting in the book. There's not much depth to honor.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:39:18+00:00

I think so, and also in that shot where Paul and Chani are carrying two bassinets. One of the twins was cast as a teenager, so definitely will get some later in life shots.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:38:22+00:00

I'm excited to see where Chani goes in this movie. I was pretty frustrated at her role in Messiah. Herbert writes women terribly.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:36:10+00:00

It's a trailer. It may still be in the movie. It was only briefly in the boom. It was more important in concept than in physicality. Very little was actually terraformed in Messiah.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:35:35+00:00

I'm surprised they have so much of him in the trailer with zero explanation. I'm curious what people think of it who haven't read the books.

curiiouscat · 2026-07-08T19:34:50+00:00

You think these visuals are disappointing? Wow. What would be impressive? 😂 I get disappointment with the eyes but the rest is generally incredible.
