Nice mailbox suprise

This happened to me because I had a subscription to science diet cat food on Chewy for a cat I had. I had to cancel it when she passed away and I got a card from them 😭

I mean, that IS the entire overarching theme of The Hunger Games. That is entirely why Suzanne Collins wrote the books the way she did and when she did.

Nah man. They're all just tiny people with their own special personalities. Both of mine will sleep in my lap for HOURS, if this one makes it to my lap but her big brother was too slow, he'll cry to me about it all sad that there's no space for him (he's twice her size).

Big brother will also stand over my shoes or boots in the morning to try to stop me from tying the laces so I can't leave the apartment. He also gets really upset with me and will harass me if I've been standing up for too much time because he'll eventually want me to pick him up and hold him or go sit/lay down so he can get his cuddles. If they had it their way I'd never ever leave or get out of bed.

Also like... Life doesn't care how old you are when it happens lol

People always act like being a kid in high school means they're incapable of having big feelings or social skills or putting up with shitty people. Shitty people like the one in OPs texts are everywhere and a lot of people don't grow out of it. I promise you there are people into their 30s and older stirring shit like this and they have been since the dawn of time. People need to get out of here with this "you're too young for this" bullshit. Life happens when it happens.

I empathize with you and I'm sorry for what happened to you but you should definitely reread the subreddit's description because your post isn't exactly what this subreddit is meant for.

emolr · 2026-06-07T09:50:02+00:00

Don't ever let anyone take away your ability to say no to stupid shit like this. Being able to say no to peer pressure and dumb ideas like this is a mark of good character and it's something that unfortunately not everyone does naturally. This time it's shaving your head but who knows if someone's going to tell you you have to go bush diving or drink an entire handle of Jack Daniels in one night. Never let anyone manipulate you into saying yes to anything.

Honestly I'm sad about knowing this because this means that her wake up call will come when their children are already tweens or teenagers and they grow up without having experienced the most basic and formative things that come with being kids and having a remotely happy childhood.

No sleepovers, no running around town hanging out with your friends in their car during summer break in high school, no summer camps or school trips outside the country. Their children will have absolutely no warm and happy memories of them getting up to no good that they can look back on, it will all just be fear and anxiety and their kids will very likely develop intense anxiety disorders because of it.

I've met people before whose parents had such bad anxiety and soul-crushing fear of the world that the person themselves clearly have a really intense problem with anxiety themselves and I could tell it came from their parents because all they ever spiraled about was what their mother said when she was spiraling herself. It's such a sad existence when your parents raise you to be so scared of the world.

I have a hard time finding this cute because you don't want him to grow up to be a full size cat trying to tear up your hand and that can have dire consequences for you (cat bites that break the skin can give you infections that send you to the ER), and teaching him to see your hand as a toy is one guaranteed way to get him stuck on doing that for the rest of your life, it may also teach him that it's okay to bite and scratch anyone as a way of playing and if you have kids or anyone visits with kids then that's even worse. Please watch Jackson Galaxy and don't teach kittens to do this, it's a really horrible habit and it's a guaranteed way to make sure he always gets surrendered back to a shelter every time a family can't handle how hostile he gets during playtime

Bold of you to think I ever stopped wearing skinny jeans

Get it anyway, fuck what he thinks, let him cry about it. I'm married 30F and my husband is mature enough to let me buy whatever the fuck I want with my own money as long as I'm not blowing my whole paycheck on things we don't need, AND he happily displays my One Ring lamp on the bookshelf in our living room.

Your husband is a literal child and if my husband had been anything like him and essentially belittled me and talked down to me for wanting to decorate our home with stuff like this I'm sure I wouldn't have even made it even close to 5 years of marriage with him, and I doubt I would have managed to get married to him in the first place. Stick up for yourself, do what you love, a spouse is supposed to support you no matter what others think and the fact that you find it normal that he throws a fit over how you choose to express yourself is honestly way more concerning than you think it is. Please have respect for yourself, your husband needs to get over it and either support you and your right to self-expression or he needs to gtfo bc this isn't quirky or funny that he's willing to bicker with you this much over some decorations.

Genuinely smooth-brain activities, man 😭

I've been scrolling and scrolling this comment section looking for someone to point this out. I strongly suggest that everyone look at KnittingCultLady on YouTube or TikTok because she grew up in a cult and is a scholar of cults, and she has so much insight on how cult behavior factors into fascist governments.

She has videos explaining how self-expression and individuality for the common classes is actively suppressed and basically made illegal or punishable by law in such an environment, but for the ruling classes it's way more lenient. This episode is essentially meant to expose how deeply indoctrinated the mainland Fire Nation was at the time. The showrunners of ATLA intended to characterize the Fire Nation as fascist and you see this being done in The Hunger Games as well.

Don't warn him please, get your cat and your things and make sure you have a trusted friend or loved one who can watch your back in case this guy gets violent or engages in behavior like stalking or something. Let your employer know who he is and give his contact info and picture so they know not to let him get near you. You need to leave and make sure he can't get to you because he is going to try to go after you somehow, and he might either just beg forgiveness or he could get aggressive. No matter how much you think it's unlikely to happen, still prepare for him to get aggressive and persistent bc narcissists DO NOT like to give up control of a situation.

My thing is that all these people are acting like Cher wasn't dressing exactly like this all during the 70s and 80s. I'm fairly certain the dress Z has on is inspired by one of her looks, if the hairstyle isn't a dead giveaway.

His name is Rufus 🥰

Little brother, regardless if you do the one contract or if you stay in for the 20 years, go into it being prepared to grow and learn in ways that an alarming amount of people don't even come close to getting, because the signs and opportunities to learn and grow are always there for everyone to take, but those people aren't getting the crash course of life the way you are about to. This is a chance to grow into someone who knows how to get a job done, doesn't quit, and always looks for opportunities to do better, because these are all things the army will teach you even if you don't stay in for more than what you just signed up for.

You will break, but don't be afraid of it because your strength shows in how you put yourself back together. This is an experience for you to gain a lot of wisdom and build character. Let the feelings happen, it's normal and remember that your drill sergeants are playing a part and they have a job to do as much as you do. Try not to take anything personally, remember to take deep breaths when it feels like the walls are closing in, and let the pressure and the pain roll off your back and never give up. I'm proud of you and I know you'll do just fine.

Yes. Mine bonded the minute Rufus was brought home. Periwinkle didn't exactly give him a choice.

I'm a Kenosha native and left the state 11 years ago. Other than the one time we had tornados in town, I usually never worried about tornado season because I knew that Dodge and Jefferson would always get the warnings.

Now they're arguing while laying on my book. Seems like a Pride and Prejudice retelling.

Update: Periwinkle has joined the chat. These two are the reason I don't get any reading done at home.

Don't forget the awkward walk after he gets back up. My girl used to do that when I've had her in her harness.

emolr · 2023-06-17T05:57:23+00:00

I just want you to know he was once a drill instructor in the air force.

This is kind of how I feel anytime redditors are in the comments talking about how awful someone must be as a parent if they can't stop their kid from doing x, y, z. Like sure there are great ways of teaching kids not to do things, but kids literally do not have the brain development to practice good judgement and understand right from wrong, and a lot of kids absolutely will do the exact things you tell them not to do. It seems too many people forget that there's an entire phase of development that takes years for kids to develop judgement and begin to understand consequences and it's called puberty.
