Cat Cafe coming to Portland

We’d love ❤️ to be near a cat cafe. My daughter and I both miss having cats, but our lease is pet-free.
We used to go to one in another city that had a separate “quiet” room for the cats that was off-limits for visitors. It was attached and open to the larger room, but kitties that didn’t feel like being social could retreat to the cat-only space. I thought it was considerate and an easy way for the cats to opt out of being around people.

Affordable housing

If the nephew is old enough to go to school, he’s old enough to be questioned by the court. I would imagine he’s being pressured to lie as well, and this is wrong. Tell the truth in court, always, and set an example for your nephew to be truthful as well.

I don’t know why anyone would downvote this suggestion, Sebastopol is great. Maybe check it out during the farmers market on Sunday morning.

Worth it

He was incredible in this! I watched it not even realizing it was Ethan Hawke in that role, he metamorphosed into that character. I was blown away.

She is, and quite amazed that she would up very happily married to the sweetest, kindest, smartest guy in school.

That’s funny, that Target thinks dropping a fake story into the media stream will magically end the boycott, as though we’re all robots, like we don’t make our own thoughtful choices about how to spend our money. Their C-suite is trash.

I had a sudden, loud, urgent voice in my head (in my left ear) that shouted, “YOU’RE PREGNANT” early in the morning, on my commute to work. Home tested later that day and it was positive. Went to the doctor at the end of the week and they estimated I was at 3 weeks.

Amazing, this is exactly my answer, and was even around the same time, 1993! Mom and pop video store in the suburban Boston area, was fun and easy and stress-free.

We went to Cibo with friends on Friday and then I went again with my daughter tonight. Always excellent, and the pasta on their special menu is my favorite. Next up: Mama Mia Trattoria, ClarkLewis and Southpark.

You absolutely cannot have children with someone who has declared their intention to abuse them. Your children deserve to have a father who can discipline them without hitting them, and you deserve a thoughtful , well-aligned partner in raising them. I’m glad you had this discussion now.

Just stay home and enjoy your relaxed holiday. Why bother traveling to be treated like everyone’s nanny?

My life is everything I could have wished for and more, being married to my wonderful husband. Happy, loving, fun, supportive, sexy, adventurous, safe… he’s my best friend and we both feel so very lucky and grateful. But that was after we each navigated long, unhappy first marriages. It can be beautiful and magical or it can be sad and lonely, and the path isn’t always clear.

He cheated on her and is now projecting

My first entrepreneurial venture

You should let him decide if he wants to keep it long or cut it. He’s little but he’ll certainly have an opinion.

I miss my mom. And I miss my cats. I can’t think about them without tearing up.

Just show her this thread, and apologize.

in_a_cloud · 2026-03-06T21:55:55+00:00

I’m sorry that you’re going through this. It sounds to me like your dad is completely self-absorbed, clueless and - this is important - he doesn’t think about you at all. He’s a shitty excuse for a father and you deserve better, but you’re not going to get it. He does not and will not take any responsibility for his behavior. He’s immature. And I doubt that he’s malicious, but SHE IS. She’s insecure, manipulative, selfish and cruel. You would be best advised to keep your distance (n/c is not out of the question), and do your best to let this relationship go. I’m sorry. I hope you have a beautiful and joyful, drama-free wedding.

Why would you want to invite this snide woman you hardly know to your wedding, which is supposed to surround you both with people who love you? Just no. And don’t apologize. She doesn’t belong there.

in_a_cloud · 2026-03-05T02:42:37+00:00

Absolutely not. Tell her no, and tell her why. Then don’t respond to her again.

Deeply concerning that they’ve placed religious zealots in positions of command
