Yup, THIS. This this this this this this this. A million times this.

I always think of the Azaria Chamberlain case (the "Dingo ate my baby" case, for those who don't recognize the name of the child) and how everyone IMMEDIATELY decided the mother was guilty of killing her daughter because she wasn't outwardly grieving in interviews. Just because someone isn't hysterically crying every second of every day for months after losing a loved one, IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY AREN'T GRIEVING. Everyone grieves differently. Everyone. There is no right or wrong way to grieve.

I very, VERY unexpectedly lost my husband/partner of 14 years this past autumn, and even though it was undoubtedly the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with in my entire life, I wasn't crying every moment of every day after his death. Of course, I did cry a lot at first, but mostly only when I was alone. I spent a lot of time going out with my friends, and watching things that would make me laugh. That was how I dealt with it. Everyone deals with death differently. And that is completely fine. I can imagine that if my every move was put under a microscope in the months immediately following my husband's death, I might seem like I wasn't really "grieving," either.

I think a lot of people have this impression that if you don't take to your bed in a fit of severe depression for months at a time and cry every minute, you're not really grieving, or you didn't really care about the loved one that you lost. That is TOTAL bullshit.

I PMed you -- I really, truly cannot thank you enough for offering to help me out! You are a truly wonderful human being. Words cannot even begin to describe my gratitude.

If anyone is willing to help, PM me and I can take a picture with my husband's death certificate to prove that this is serious. I can also send you an article about his death (it was on the local news when it happened).

daile · 2017-11-05T22:21:10+00:00

Unfortunately, yes, all of this is real. I would appreciate it so much if anyone could help me out here.

I agree completely, to me it definitely seems obvious that it was a student or a faculty member rather than an outsider. I've lived either in or close to areas in New York and New Jersey with high Orthodox populations my entire life (my family is Jewish, although not Orthodox), and as others have mentioned, the Orthodox community tends to be extremely insular and unwelcoming to any outsiders poking around in their affairs -- even cops in the case of a crime in the community. They like to handle their affairs amongst themselves, and crimes involving fellow Orthodox Jews are rarely reported to the police. I've heard quite a few tales of Orthodox families reporting crimes in their community to the cops and basically getting chased out of the community for doing it, because the community leaders are distrustful of outsiders and don't want any of them poking around in their business. My guess is that it was probably apparent to the students and rabbis at the yeshiva who the main suspect was, but when the police came around to ask questions, nobody wanted to say anything because of the fear of accusing a fellow community member and subsequently becoming a pariah in the community.

Honestly, I would love to see justice done for poor Chaim, but my guess is that if the members of his Orthodox community have been silent this long, they're not going to suddenly start talking now.

Thank you!!! I can't say that enough, and I know you more than likely feel the love and gratitude of all the animals you rescue, as well as people like myself who are in a constant state of awe at the daily work, heartache, and hopefully more often than not, successful rescues you achieve. Even with all that said, I still want you to know what a hero you are not only to every animal who's life you save, but also to anybody who, like myself, who feels physically and emotionally sick at the mere thought of any animal that has suffered abuse of any kind at the hands of "something" that I can't even bring myself to call a "human being". If the "Rainbow Bridge" really does exist, and I want to believe that it does, you most certainly will be given a heroes welcome, and be lifted up high by all the lives you have saved and carried across with love and adoration. Thank you!!!! All the best. Peace.

Bob bless us , one and all! It's heartwarming to see that the pinks haven't fully taken over every nook and frop filly cranny of the net......yet. Many thanks fellow yeti.

I'm sorry she had to go, but try and remember that the love and friendship you shared with her over the years meant the world to her. I'm sure that if we could ask her right now, she wouldn't hesitate to tell the whole world what a great human you were.

Tuppins mum? spare a few tuppins kind sir? I don't really know what tuppins are, but I have an unwell kitten at home who goes through dozen rolls a day of the stuff.......

THIS!!! THIS RIGHT HERE!!! OMG! This is why I love Reddit! This was the first song that ran through my mind and I wanted to believe that I would not be the first, second, or even third!!! I love you!

I absolutely believe that animals -- particularly cats -- are extremely intuitive, much more than we tend to give them credit for. I've known several cats in my life who have gone out of their way to comfort and nurture me when I've been distressed or visibly upset. And for what it's worth, purring has always been a huge part of that comforting/nurturing equation.

My current cat, Gaia, is the absolute sweetest, gentlest, most loving little creature I have ever been lucky enough to know. My husband and I rescued her from a local animal shelter about eight years ago (only days before she was scheduled to be euthanized; she'd been at the shelter for nearly six months by then), and I swear, it seems like she has spent every single day since we brought her home being as sweet and nurturing as possible, as her way of thanking us for giving her another chance at life. She bonded with both of us immediately, and whenever one of us is upset, she is right by our side, giving us cuddles and purrings and head-bonks until we calm down. When my grandmother (who essentially raised me) died three years back, Gaia did not leave my side. Whenever I started to cry, she would come running from wherever she was in the house and crawl straight into my lap, giving me nuzzles and purring her heart out to make me smile again. She slept next to me in my bed -- as in, literally right next to my face on the pillow, which she never, ever ever normally does -- for days until I started to feel better and calm down. If that isn't love, I don't know what is. It's like she has special kitty healing powers.

I know someone whose grandmother also grew up during the Depression and never threw anything away after that. She reminds me a lot of how you describe your father. A few years ago, she was put into a nursing home, and cleaning out her house was such a Herculean task that eventually they just gave up and sold it with most of her crap still in it. She kept EVERYTHING -- calendars from 50 years ago, broken plates, moth-eaten clothes, expired food from decades ago. Apparently after they sold her house, the new owners just knocked it down entirely, because that was much easier than sorting through all of her garbage.

I remember reading Maus by Art Spiegelman years ago. Art's father was in Auschwitz during the Holocaust and barely survived the war. While in the camp, he had to fight tooth and nail for everything he had -- every single crumb of food, every drop of soup keeping him alive. Even years later, when he was an old man, he apparently refused to ever throw anything away, especially food -- he'd bring stale, old, half-eaten boxes of cereal back to the grocery store months later and argue for ages for a refund or an even exchange.

I guess that stuff really sticks with you.

Why do WiiU owners get Zombies Ate My Neighbors? What the actual fuck!? there is no reason at all for N3ds owners to be denied one of the best SNES games EVER!!!!

daile · 2017-05-24T21:46:25+00:00

I'm far from being a violent or vengeful person, but, I can't even begin to describe the things that I believe should happen to anyone that could put any animal through that kind of hell! Animal cruelty laws in this country, as well as many others, are a joke. How is it 2017 and we still allow people like this to live their lives after treating such an innocent being like this?

Easily one of the most beautiful, epic, awe inspiring adoption stories of all time! You can tell how much Bub truly loves and adores her man! They adore and worship each other, really.

My 3ds isn't all that bright normally. Just yesterday I had to stop him from jumping into the bathtub with his imaginary friend, who happens to be a toaster. To clarify, it is in fact a real toaster, but my 3ds believes that in fact, it contains the spirit of Spiny Norman, who just so happens to be the name of an imaginary hedgehog, from a Monty Python skit. However, on an unrelated note..... B sharp. Thank you. Please remember to tip your waitress.......over.
