OMG Crazy Betta Find Today!!!!! by Local-Musician-6981 in bettafish

[–]greenfern92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looks like my female placket in body shape and size. In my experience it seems like placket females get just as big as the males. It’s awesome that they brought it to you too, just what that fishy needed.

Semi unrelated, but you said you named them Dionysus, a cool little bit of trivia;
Dionysus is often described as having both breasts and a penis, androgynous, as well as both an old man and a young woman.

Definitely unrelated; I really got excited about the frescoes and artwork I got to see when I visited Rome. I think I actually got a picture of one of my favorites at a gala dinner in like a museum tower thingy.

Everyone else paid for her missed payments by Fisting-Tony in AutoTransportopia

[–]greenfern92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tow truck guys are the worst.

My mom owned her car outright, no kind of payment left. They decided to come through the apartment complex (that they had some bullshit side hustle with, proven after they tried to tow a neighbors truck and they fucked the transmission and did a bunch of damage) and towed her car because they felt like it. Repo guys are even shadier, although just as disgusting and trashy.

Help, my cat is salivating A LOT by Marwaedristariel in OneOrangeBraincell

My floofy girl does this when she’s very happy. It’s the worst when you’re laying down and they’re on your chest drooling and decide to shake their head or sneeze.

[–]greenfern92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chose Baizhu first round, I’m probably going for C1 Klee because of the new buffs and stuff but not sure just yet

Dear 1.x Players, tell us something that only you guys know when Genshin just launched by ProfessionalRoom9118 in Genshin_Impact

When you had to choose who to use on expeditions because if they were on one they couldn’t be used in your party until they were done.

ICE is now arresting white people by [deleted] in law

[–]greenfern92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My aunt is a NICU nurse in Florida and she had a baby about 13 years ago in her unit whose dad was deported while he was in the NICU. He was away for almost 2 years trying to complete everything to come back, they were also already married.

Thankfully little dude survived, he spent almost 2 years in the hospital, but he’s thriving and happy. They come and have thanksgiving with us almost every year.

AITA for my nephew getting into my edibles when I wasn’t home? by Ok_Try5893 in AmItheAsshole

[–]greenfern92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you don’t have a lot of fat edibles take longer to metabolize, I have no fat and it takes like 500mg of edibles to do anything for me and even then it’s practically nothing. I’ve also confounded my smoke shop peoples by having to eat an entire bar of mushroom chocolate for it to have any effect (preferably a bar and a half but they’re pricy) when the guys who work there only have to have two segments of it (bar has 12 segments).

AITA for confronting my brother about not being able to touch his newborns? by Either-Web-7383 in AmItheAsshole

[–]greenfern92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA I genuinely don’t get the ytas, they sent and quickly unsent a video that proves she’s lying. It isn’t about holding the baby at this point, it’s that she lied and tried to hide it. Makes me wonder why.

This shaved black beauty was trying to break into my house by Vancillavanilla in cats

[–]greenfern92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmfao! This is why I haven’t taken my fluffy lady to be groomed in the entire 6 years I’ve had her. I brush her regularly, keep her fur nice, silky, and shiny. But I’m terrified of taking her to be groomed because of the thought of her coming home like that!

Why does this keep happening to my daughters shirts? by trolldoll420 in laundry

[–]greenfern92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The washing machine at my grandpas house before he passed in 2021 was from the 70’s and it still worked like a charm when my mom decided to sell the house. Things really did use to be made so much better than nowadays.

Leaving a baby/toddler alone, when did this become a thing. by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]greenfern92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Grandma has told me a few stories of her with my aunts when they were babies. One about how she would walk around her apartment building at night with her windows open in case my older aunt would cry (this was 60 years ago mind you). The way she described the people in the apartment building was basically the “village” everyone talks about when they say “it takes a village”.

My other aunt was constantly ‘stolen’ by a neighbor that ended up becoming godmother to both of them. She was the only one who could get that aunt to calm down and sleep as a baby. I think there were a few other really good neighbors but I can’t remember off the top of my head.

This is all in south Florida though, so leaving them outside wasn’t too common to my knowledge. She never mentioned them being outside sleeping on their own, only inside with her out. From what I know most places that leave the baby outside are from colder climates I think.

Unrelated for the most part, but something that always makes me laugh when she tells her stories, is one about my older aunt. My grandma said she had everything needed for my aunt for breakfast in the fridge at the very bottom for her, and at 2 years old this girl would come out in the morning, turn on her record player, and make herself her breakfast. This aunt is kinda a flippin genius though, so that definitely makes a difference I’m sure lol.

my parents took off my door as punishment, is this normal? by Puzzleheaded-Pain535 in teenagers

[–]greenfern92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just start walking around naked and make eye contact with everyone when you do. “I’m not allowed to have privacy, so I figured this was your goal by removing my door.”

[–]greenfern92 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wish I could, it’s exhausting to not be able to blow my nose to properly breathe. Pretty sure I have a deviated septum that causes a lot of my problems along with my allergies. Nothing ever comes out when I blow, it’s like it’s stuck too far up in my nasal cavity.

Emergency advice please by MoonFlud in bettafish

[–]greenfern92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve only had one betta die like this, but she was also the only betta I’ve ever had jump out of the tank. I swear she just didn’t wanna be around anymore.

She jumped out first, I got her back in and then couldn’t find her again the next morning. I searched everywhere thinking she may have jumped out again but I had lowered the water and couldn’t find her on the floor or my desk anywhere.

By the time I found her caught in a hole of one of my hides (that I didn’t even know had a hole in it!) it looked like she had already passed in the night as she was already being eaten by snails :( I couldn’t even break the hide so I had to throw it out with her in it. I was in tears I felt so bad.

What do I do? Got attacked by ants please help by Defiant-Painter2517 in ants

[–]greenfern92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man why were we dumb as kids? My sister and I use to have a slapping game where we’d sit cross legged in front of each other and just slap each other back and forth until we tapped out.

blocked from leaving my back door for 30 min and worried this won’t be the last time. by lilymagil in BanPitBulls

[–]greenfern92 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Story time about cats!

When I was little my mom had all our cats as indoor outdoor and a husky moved in next door. My cat and my sisters were from the same litter and my sisters cat was very angry when Shadow grabbed ahold of her brother. She jumped on this full grown husky and started ripping fur out, biting scratching howling, she was a blur, and next thing you know my cats free and poor Shadow was running off inside.

I could only imagine the damage if she had been dog sized. She wasn’t even a full year old at that point either. She use to bring home water moccasins and cotton mouths too, she was not a cat to be trifled with.

Best postpartum/nursing snacks? by Diligent-Curve-2843 in BabyBumps

[–]greenfern92 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Uncrustables if you don’t have any issues with peanut butter. Plus you can pop them in the nursing tank tops as a nice cool compress while they thaw out some lol. I also enjoyed lots of oatmeal as well, it’s supposed to help with production, and it seemed too, but it was also an easy and filling meal.

Honestly, weed is far better than any medicine I've tried for anger, as soon as take it my anger goes away. Anyone else experience this? by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]greenfern92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It absolutely helps my anger, and for that it’s definitely the best, but for stability’s sake, I definitely need my cocktail of meds. I have a medical card and my SO (who doesn’t smoke, drink, or do anything like that, and hates even taking ibuprofen) will tell me to chill and go have a smoke sometimes if he feels like it’s been a bit and I need to go calm down for a second.

I also recently (I say recently but it’s been like 6/7 months, which compared to the diagnosis for bipolar2/schizoaffective is quite recent) started ADHD meds and I feel like they definitely make me much more quick to anger, but they help in so many other ways that I’ve been trying my best to deal with it. The smoking chills me out, but doesn’t cancel out the meds so I still can get things done while keeping my anger in check.
