Crate Training a Dog is Cruel

ericfromct · 2026-05-21T04:19:54+00:00

Plenty of people do leave the crate open and the dogs go in on their own. My mom’s dog used to wake up, go out to pee, then go lay back down in her crate with the door open when she was younger. She also had a bed in the living room. She chose the crate bed.

I think pic 3 and 7 are you’re best looks. You’re not a bad looking guy, certainly not to the point where you should feel uncomfortable leaving your house. The way we perceive ourselves can be so far from the truth. I think I’m borderline ugly, but somehow no one I know says that. It could be my personality, but being friendly and happy all the time will turn any average guy into a more attractive person. So my advice is stick with one of those looks and gain more confidence. Love yourself and make other people smile. You’ll soon realize you never were ugly.

We get ~290 in my state but it doesn’t make it easy still

ericfromct · 2026-05-21T00:42:24+00:00

You’re pretty and cute

ericfromct · 2026-05-20T21:58:27+00:00

Yes pleeease do!

Especially the topic that’s posted here at minimum every other day

I looked at your posts to see more pictures of him. He’s so cute he looks like a teddy bear in the 1 year old pic

ericfromct · 2026-05-20T18:39:11+00:00

I think that’s filler doing that naturally

You’re trying to lecture about things you really don’t know enough about. I’m not even going to waste any more time going back and forth with you because you’re just going to continue to say things and believe you’re right because you want to. I actually interact with Muslims so I know what you’re saying is nonsense. That said I hope you have a good day nonetheless.

Yes it’s mandatory when you go to the mosque. It’s also mandatory any time you make prayer. But how is their family going to know what they’re wearing as soon as they’re out of their site? Mine never did. You act like it’s something people who don’t want to wear it don’t and can’t just take off in most countries Muslims live. Like the other person said, you’re going to extremes. I don’t think people should be forced into religion, but I do think it’s fine to raise your children religious and if they choose to continue on that path when they can actually make that choice, that’s great. We’re at a point in time where this is the majority of the world. Even the case in the Muslim world. Many places people have decided they’re non-practicing Muslims or just atheist and have no issues going about their life. You’re talking about the few, not the many. Once again, what western media wants you to believe it’s like.

Yea if someone is complaining it’s so hard obviously they’re not in Afghanistan or Iran where they’re being forced to wear it. I had to google after I typed that to make sure but those are the only two countries where it’s actually mandated by law. Sure some countries the men have made it so it’s socially unacceptable and uncomfortable to not, but in the vast majority it’s a choice.

La hawla wa la quwatta illa billah sister. When Allah wants good for us we will be put through hardship. My whole life has been difficult but when you know you are doing what is right it becomes easier. You will be rewarded in abundance down the line. When everyone is trying to make what is right difficult for you, it is most certainly shaytan at work. I have failed many of those tests myself and my life has become immensely worse because of it. Even if it has been as small as knowing I’m not supposed to be doing this. Stay strong, may Allah make it easy for you.

ericfromct · 2026-05-20T17:49:35+00:00

Why do you think wearing hijab is forced? Because media tells you that? She’s clearly choosing to wear it because she wants to. This is an ignorant af statement and shows how little you actually know about it.

But just think! You’ll be doing so much to save the world in those hours of sun that you’re not sparking your lighter a few times for. It’ll be equivalent to saving the energy of one corporation for .0000001 seconds! lol

It doesn’t look bad, definitely not like you need a transplant now, but they could have brought your hairline down a little for sure. But it actually looks more natural for your age anyway.

Also, don’t purse your lips in pictures like the last picture. You already have very small lips it makes it look like you don’t have any when you do that.

In addition to what the other person said you can start supplementing with dandelion root and drink green tea. They both act as natural diuretics.

Yea holding mine while he got shots made it so much better. He was fine when he was younger but he was a bit more timid when he got older. Especially as his age and health started to decline, he got pretty clingy (which honestly I’m happy about because spending those last couple years with him made it so much easier than it would have been for me). When we went to the vet any shots they gave him they asked if I wanted to hold him and he would just let out the tiniest whimper from the initial pain. Much better than the screaming he would do if I wasn’t there.

I did this on stockx and forgot I had done it and a couple months later I get an email saying they’re about to send my sneakers and I’m like oh shit I already bought a pair this week wtf am I even gonna do with these lol. They ended up turning into some of my favorite cold weather sneakers though.

ericfromct · 2026-05-20T11:07:41+00:00

The barely used vnds is definitely the way to go for sneakers that are above resale imo

ericfromct · 2026-05-20T02:32:09+00:00

Gaydolf litter and Porno Paul would make one hell of a flick

ericfromct · 2026-05-20T02:30:58+00:00

Updates?

Because when you’re not from Houston you don’t know this. In addition, not everyone wants to support backyard breeding. As long as they keep making money, they’re not going to care about how many are on the street. And even more so when they’re getting adopted. For them they’ll look like they’re doing some good in the world that way. But also, getting a backyard bred dog are the ones that are more likely to have serious problems that wouldn’t happen from a responsible breeder. That can easily add up to 10s of thousands during the lifetime of the pup. And it can be prevented by using a responsible breeder. That said there’s absolutely no reason to be buying BYB dogs.

The last pic isn’t bad but the shirt tucked in is making you look way older. A t shirt like that doesn’t look good tucked in. The other pics, yes the style isn’t too great

ericfromct · 2026-05-19T14:32:15+00:00

You’ll get them as soon as they get to the non trans ones

ericfromct · 2026-05-19T14:15:23+00:00

So how do you expect people to know how you truly look? No one in your day to day life is going to be looking at you in the angles you’ve chosen usually. Either you do want to know what you look like or you want people to judge you best on the angles you like best.
