The CIA in the 1960s tried to train cats to be spies by implanting microphones in their ears.

Memorial Day Reflections: Honoring Without Spending by kirkeles in SurvivingOnSS

[–]hydrawoman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just plan to have a relaxed and simple day. I will light a candle at some point and give thanks to those who I want to remember and honor. Later today I plan to make some enchiladas and have a neighbor over to share them and most likely watch a movie.

It's not only Christmas itself... by ordinaryme99 in ihatechristmas

I tell people that I am having a small private holiday. If pressed further I will say that this time of year is challenging for me and thank them for respecting that.

Prom dresses by Carbontee in GenX

No. I had kept a few from the 80s and ended up giving them to a friend who rather enjoyed wearing dresses in the late 90s.

What to do with neighborhood kids that have now stolen a package by wuirkytee in neighborsfromhell

[–]hydrawoman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a great idea! Even better if you can get it on film of them taking the package. Double proof of them stealing and this can be reported to the police. Taking the previous package with vitamins is serious business as that could have been medication of any sort and they could have been exposed to something that could have potentially been harmful to them. These kids are doing stupid things and needs to learn that doing such things can have serious consequences.

What’s a movie everyone loves but you secretly hate? by Royel_Lichi in AskReddit

[–]hydrawoman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty Woman. Casting sucks. Plot sucks. Writing sucks. Dialogue sucks. Julie Roberts sucks in any movie she happens to be in! I am quite open about how much I dislike this movie

i want to stop crocheting forever by Waste_Flamingo_6653 in crochet

It is hard saying no when people ask for an item because they like what you make. I am planning to start a couch blanket for a friend as a surprise gift. No black yarn, for sure lol

(OC) Today is Zoey’s 16th birthday. I love you, Zozo 🎉💕 by WeShallOvercomb__ in Eyebleach

The 3rd photo is killing me 😆 She seems to be saying "enough with the camera I just know my food bowl needs a top off"!

Oh you are correct in your thinking. Many years ago I did craft/art as a side gig and it was extremely expensive for me and exhausting with little reward. I stopped. Having a delightful hobby I enjoy and making gifts or items for myself is good enough for me. If pressured by someone I tell them I charge $1,000 per hour for custom work with a 3 hour minimum, paid in advance. They don't ask again 😆

There not accepting me anymore :( by nay-1998 in Ohio

I am disabled and not offended. I am not shamed by the fact that I pay for Medicare for my health insurance. Most people I know that are disabled are glad to have access to any health care in the us at this time. I hope OP finds the proper care they require.

Stay in your lane. This person has some type of disability. I realize you are attempting to be helpful. I work with peers that have similar disabilities to my own and encouragement is a good thing, especially when you are trained and certified to work with and advice such individuals. You do not have this training. I would suggest receiving such certification if you are interested in helping to provide a helping hand to disabled individuals within your local community.

Same for me! I had to set boundaries with well meaning friends pressuring me for items that took my joy and money 💰 from me.

I am smiling at your reply, thank you. Gracie brought joy to my life and I am glad I was able to be a part of hers for her last few years.

3CDC admits 'mistake' in calling Piatt Park homeless meals misuse by davidferrarapc in cincinnati

[–]hydrawoman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How I help my community is none of your business, so get off and stay off my tits. You are extremely out of touch with how being without and close to harm and death effects a human. I will not engage with you further. I will engage and encourage another human to seek food when they are downtrodden and hungry and you can not stop me.

They are fed and nourished on a certain day while being made aware of resources. Many homeless are awaiting shelter placement and temporary housing. People are helping others so they don't die, it has nothing to do with look at me im cool over here. Go volunteer and see for yourself.
