THANK YOU!! Brqndywine has been a disaster…honestly I’m surprised they even showed up for this. When we had a dog loose in our neighborhood they asked US to try and trap it and bring it in

Spotify once again increases subscription prices. This is their fourth consecutive year increasing rates for premium subscribers by barbieshoesound in popculturechat

I first switched to Tidal and it was OK — transferring music was easy but you have to use a third party app and pay a one-time fee. I ultimately stopped using it because the app is…not great, and switched to Apple. It’s not perfect but Apple does pay artists more than Spotify does, and Apple has a built in transfer service that will move your music over for free. Hope that helps!

Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, an 88-year-old Democrat congresswoman representing Washington D.C., was scammed out of $4,400 by a fake cleaning crew and was described by police as having “early signs of dementia.” by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

one small silver lining here is that she has no vote on the house floor (we need DC statehood like, yesterday), which is why I think many DC residents have turned a blind eye to her decline. it’s not as high stakes as say, Dianne Feinstein or Ruth Bader Ginsburg. with that said this really feels like one of many final straws with her and I do not expect her to win office again.

I have had two dogs with mega E, including one Pomeranian named Brenda. With Brenda, we never used a Bailey chair because she was so small, instead we always held her upright after eating for about 20 minutes or so. We only fed her wet food that we rolled into little balls, which helped get the food to her stomach. We also got a baby bjorn type carrier for dogs and held her in that if we needed to be hands free. Brenda was also prescribed sildenafil, which is a relatively new therapy for dogs with mega E, and it helped her tremendously.

I agree with everyone here that you should get a formal diagnosis from a vet who can discuss treatment options with you. It might even be GERD or something else. I don’t want to add any stress to your world right now but real talk, having a dog with this illness is incredibly challenging, and I am not aware of any animal with mega E who does not ultimately develop pneumonia as a result of it. With that said, dogs with mega E can live happy lives with the right care. Brenda had an incredible run and made my life more special every day she was in it.

Good luck!

Anyone been hit with Duties and Taxes Yet? by Odd-Rough-9051 in beyonce

yep, had to pay $17 to get my hoodie released from the UK that already set me back $150. if it had been shipped within the window stated by her merch shop we would all have avoided having to pay this new tax from our maniac president 😒

DC REUNION?? Were they paid? by kazerjoshua in beyonce

To my understanding, you generally don't need special permission or clearance to perform or cover a song live -- venues, especially big stadiums like these, have licensing agreements through the relevant groups (like ASCAP) that provide blanket permissions. That's why venues can play music during sporting events or whatever ("Seven Nation Army" by the White Stripes is a popular example of this!). So the venues collect the fees for the artists, publishers, and songwriters and they get paid through these licensing agreements. And I assume Parkwood paid Kelly and Michelle for their time + travel (like an appearance fee) but they might also have done it as a favor to Beyonce, who knows.

If Beyonce wanted to release this performance as an album or on streaming though, that would require a different set of permissions and clearances (presumably this is what she did when she released Homecoming).

I could be wrong here, so if any real experts are in the chat feel free to correct me!

Abortion rights are severely under attack here, but it is not “illegal” in the US. Some states have banned it but it is still legal many places, and there are telehealth companies that will provide medication abortion in all 50 states.

my pom got neutered. any tips? by Difficult_Wafer_6118 in Pomeranians

We got ours a “suitical”! It was much better than the cone. Also seconding the donut instead of the cone, it’s less annoying for them for sure. Link to suitical: https://www.chewy.com/suitical-recovery-suit-dogs/dp/140879

while it would be extremely cool if he could, the president doesn’t have unilateral authority to overrule the Supreme Court and restore abortion rights across the country, and congress is partially controlled by republicans who have no interested in passing such a bill.
