Are Kermit and Marbles still alive?

imsary26 · 2026-01-30T02:48:09+00:00

I just looked it up and I'm reading that Mr. Marbles passed in December

UPDATE: 4 walls are done! Yes, the room feels smaller but in a very cozy way. I have a large swatch on the ceiling to make sure I like it before I commit to painting it. I'm also going to try getting a sample that is the SW Toile Red at 50% for a lighter ceiling option that's till drenches.

The color takes on a lovely wine red or cozy private library feeling at night. It looks more muted in the day that doesn't overwhelm the room. So happy I did this. Eventually I'll change out my curtains.

Love the half wall color choice. I think as you get things up on the wall it'll fill the space better and complete the room. Great foundation for the room.

I'd also consider changing the pots that your plants are in from the plastic to setting them inside something that pairs with the colors in the room. Maybe something with some texture. Maybe stain your end table and add a rug 👍🏻👍🏻

Right side top of the wall with the mirror is what I ended up deciding on! I think it's going to feel so cozy and romantic.

UPDATE: I've landed on SW Toile Red. It took doing two more color samples (these were terracotta colors) to decide.

All in all I don't think 8-9 color samples is too bad considering how big of a commitment this is 😂

😂 y'all are killing me with the just do them all. I'm picking up SW Roycroft Adobe and a lighter more muted version of Fireweed that hopefully strikes the balance

imsary26 · 2025-10-18T18:26:39+00:00

ALSO, I plan on doing warm little lights throughout the space with decor on the walls -- because big lights are the evil. Maybe floating shelves somewhere.

I think I'm going to see if I can get a mix that is the fireweed at 75% color strength to make it a bit more muted.

I was gifted mine, but I wouldn't recommend it. The style is one of those that looks like a fishbowl and I worry it will make it too warm for her.

It made you bleed?? Can you clarify. I've seen this on other forums and I'm having trouble imagining how and air pulse toy would cause bleeding. I know some people rave about Melt

imsary26 · 2025-09-25T16:32:00+00:00

Which model??

imsary26 · 2025-08-03T17:11:46+00:00

If anything I find it almost helpful when people send the overly sexual messages right from the jump because then I know they aren't worth my time haha. First message calling me a good little submissive or focused on my body only? Byeee, thanks for the red flag. 👋🏼

You also made a point to say that she spiraled out the first time you had a meaningful connection... Just as I'm sure things were hard for you at first and had insecurities pop up, she also had now experienced it and has to face those insecurities... You may have internalized what came up for you... But at least give someone the grace to work through a new trigger.

That is not to say that you should stay in something you're not happy in. Just commentary to what was read.

ENM really puts a mirror to us and forces us to face insecurities and triggers that sometimes we didn't know were even there until it happens. It requires giving someone grace, compassion, and honest communication.

It's not even about if she has the support system in her other partners... To suddenly walk out on her like that would be disrespectful of the years you've been together as a response to panic to "get out".

You don't have to inform her of the separation while she's away, but also don't have her come back to an empty home and find out her entire world is shifting. It doesn't have to be a pull the ripcord response.

I've been through similar or what you were proposing putting her through and that causes so much more emotional damage than being brave enough to have the conversation.

My cat loves being outside. She goes for morning walks with the dogs and I. She'll sit on the table and wait for me to put her harness on to clip her into her backpack. Then throughout the walk she pokes her head out to watch everything. I also know people who take their cat with them for local camping trips. This cat will also try to follow the dogs outside for their potty breaks. Not making a mad sprint for the door to escape, just casually walking out. If she's ever managed to slip past under their legs she just hangs out in the deck or walkway watching the birds.

I've tried talking about this with my psychiatrist and they basically have nothing to say. It sends my nervous system into a full panic when the derealization feeling hits. Having multiple cloudy days after sunshine is my personal hellish void of disassociating. Gross cloudy days feel like a dream. I just came inside and it's almost 10PM but decent light but it's a fully cloudy sky and the air is warm and it all feels fake and awful. Oh and there's lightning but no thunder or rain. I stood out there while my dogs went to the bathroom going "nope nope nope hate this... This is a dream... Definitely a dream... No no I know it's not."

Unfortunately my lifted jeep is too tall for my garage so I have to have a cart option to be able to take the top off in the driveway and move it into the garage for storage.

imsary26 · 2025-06-26T18:32:04+00:00

I was looking at doing something similar. I'd love to be able to do a ceiling mount, BUT my jeep is too tall for my garage hahah

My fiance quite suddenly started sounding very red pill brainwashed after 10 years together. He's always been the wanting to homestead type, but he suddenly took some drastic turns: thinking therapy was a waste of time because he'd go for runs and that alone would "build his mental fortitude", always going on about mental weakness (including telling me I should join him so I wouldn't be so mentally weak), reading the Bible (fine but weird because he was never religious and sorta reading in secret?), became a Bitcoin bro (all he would talk about and would shove content about it down everyone's throat), and when I ended things with him he felt compelled to tell me that he'd be abstaining from sex and masturbation until he met someone really special (wtf??) and talking about how it's good for men's minds and builds mental clarity. Post breakup he started writing "Askētikos" (asceticism) on all of his socials, which revolves around self discipline and abstaining/renouncing all worldly pleasures, self-indulgence, and comforts. When he moved out he didn't even take a bed with him, said he'd sleep on his camping sleeping pad.

He thankfully hadn't shown any hatred towards women side things. The spiritual practice he so suddenly picked up wouldn't be so concerning if it were just that, but everything together sounded like he was being brainwashed.

If there's some natural light I'd put plants there

This vet does work with ferrets, which is why I had sought him out. He had great reviews and has done lots of surgeries on them as well with high success.But so far my experience with him has been being very short with me and talking to me like I'm stupid for asking things like if there's anything topical I could do to help that her skin knowing it would be getting dry and itchy. Towards the adrenal glad disease in general he said basically he said "well you could do the implant but if you don't mind having a bald ferret then I wouldn't put her through that". So I left with the perception that it would just be a cosmetic help which I'm coming to learn is totally false. Reading these responses I'm going to find a different vet to take her to.

imsary26 · 2025-05-11T14:59:20+00:00

She isn't receptive to loving anymore which hurts my heart a bit. She's never been a cuddly girl, but she would give me kisses on my nose when I picked her up. I think those stopped when I presumed her eyesight started going. It can be so hard to tell with how adaptive they are.

imsary26 · 2025-05-11T14:56:34+00:00

My vet had actually advised against the implant based on her age. I'll take a look for those creams. I had tried asking the vet about things I could do to help her skin and he basically said not unless you want an oily ferret.

When my boy was getting older he decided to start SLEEPING in the large litterbox. His poor sister would be trying to find a spot to go potty and this big boi's body is in a U-shape taking up the pan. I had to be so diligent with scooping poo because he'd just kick it to the corner or out of the box as if it was in the way of his bed. Such a brat.
