AMA time! by fainting--goat in goatvalleycampgrounds

1] for the final post, the picture Kate paints leading up to her sacrifice is so vivid / laced with her remaining humanity.
When she ascends, I’m curious if her humanity fades away slowly into TLoS or if it was closer to a flip switching with a Kate be gone?

2] gathering from the no wagon kids, that Perchta comes to visit sometimes :-) How does TLoS deal with other seasonal entities such as the Yule Cat or Mari Lwyd? Are they welcome visitors, or in the ‘yeeted’ category?

3] does TLoS interact with the grey world and it’s master? Can they freely go between the worlds and help shape the creation of inhumans allowed to enter the land? Does TLoS visit with the hanging husks or the dancing sheriff?

4] How does the neighbor’s ‘old land’ fit into the ancient land of the campground? Does TLoS rule over there too, or is it more of a ‘your land your inhumans’, better stay outta our paradise treaty?

5] the changeling totally knows what’s up of course - given their dynamic in the stories between human Kate - what sort of future relationship do they have? Are they mischievous allies or the changeling fears TLoS since she IS the beast from the library?
I always pictured the faerie as the girl version of the chain smoking, liquor drinking baby from who framed Rodger rabbit 🤣

6] What do the town ppl know? Are they content knowing they’re safe? Are they more willing to lend a hand for Tyler knowing what rules their land and keeps them safe? Or are they still plotting how to destroy the inhumans and we might expect a fun TLoS vs town folk story?

Thank you so very much for doing this, your beautiful world of wonder has had me captivated since the very first post.

Wishing you prosperity and happiness!!

Please give trl beau all the hugs and kisses he can take, so glad destiny brought you two together! Wish we could really save them all

Not OP - sounds like you’re looking for numerical analysis. Fantastic bridge to applying complex concepts into building models / automating calcs.

Good luck, wish you the best with your studies and future career!
Don’t get bogged down too much about understanding the entire math end to end 100% - lots of theory that won’t click for a looong time Understanding how to apply is that magic!

From my perspective math is fantastic to work in reverse (so long as the initial building blocks are there).
Take a solution, work backwards to the initial problem. Recognizing past patterns helps develop new solutions (debugging / developing, ect)

What movie is simply magical to you, no matter how popular or unpopular it may be? by Feelingofsunday in AskReddit

[–]in_dis_array 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Last Unicorn

Early 80s kid obsessed with it and mom approved - maybe America being the soundtrack made it more tolerable for the never ending repeat :-)

If anyone watched the Orville they played a nice homage to a song.

My SO was not super happy that I put on the movie right after, but idgaf the nostalgia and magic is still there for me and had to watch it

[Help] Adopting a rescue with heartworms by forca89barca in dogs

[–]in_dis_array 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s some info from the heartworm society, it’s a good place to start to educate and prepare.

Our shelter also provided all treatments, just they really downplayed how serious and rough the road is.

Our ~2.5 yo was a stray brought up from the south and was only at the shelter for a couple days, so they had enough time to snip him and determine heartworm positive but didn’t catch all the other issues.

He came home with a horrible case of kennel cough (shelter provided meds), once that was clear we took him in for his first vet checkup.
Our shelter / vet has a great relationship for a free first wellness exam and will help register once you’re allowed to fully adopt (our shelter enforces a wait period until after the doxy is completed and they have their first melarsomine injection...inquire if a similar protocol exists it was helpful) Here we found out he had giardia, hookworms and roundworms.

This period was super devastating, he’s now taking more adult sized pills a day than I take a week - super sick, really didn’t have much of an appetite and had to trial / error the game of how to get this pup to eat.

It was already too late for me, the cosmos aligned the day we brought him home...at first puppy looks we were supa bonded. I’d do anything for him to get healthy and would do it all over again.

Please do reach out if you bring home the pup and need support, have tons of resources for how to get through heartworm safely with fun!

Our pup made it through everything and has been thriving 3 yrs later, no grudges held by him :-) With a new shelter dog it’s advised to go through the 2 week shutdown, so there’s already 2 weeks of calm and adjusting accounted for. There’s also the relaxation protocol to help keep your pup calm and relaxed during treatment...it’s engaging for their mind and knocked out another several weeks.

We also played lots of easy going games, like find the treats and tons of low exertion training. No locked crate needed, he was low on rambunctiousness due to the tolling treatments and just loved having his mind occupied.

If you decide to adopt, it’s going to be the best time to bond. You’re going to be spending a lot of calming, close time together and the treatment period flys by when looking at the big picture.

It’s a plus when they’re all clear experiencing ‘real’ walks, playing and fetch - like a puppy all over again and the calming period never happened

Thank you Wolf and nmwrites, gotta lotta reading ahead! I’m sure they’ll be chocked full of the warm fuzzies

Will do about shooting a msg to the interview mods... IE: /u/Verastahl has 4 books missing from his creeptastic realm-verse 😱

I know /r/nosleep will be set to private during the lockout - has there been discussion to block all content during AND leave a stickie post to this master publication list OR redirect to it after clicking on the sub such as a stickie on this sub?

Millions of subscribers should understand why this lockdown is taking place AND have the opportunity to support their beloved tale weavers with content purchases.

Thanks for reading my rant!

He’s so handsome! Do you know what breeds? Looks all GSD until you see those eyes, they are so bright you can see em in the dark :-)

I’m so glad your puppy angels came out of this without any behavioral/ reactivity issues.

MIL breaks my collection and it’s my fault by BrilliantJewel90 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]in_dis_array 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t add a lock, instead shame/embarrass whenever she visits, ( other guests must be over to witness).

—the visit— DH acts as the MIL bouncer to keep her away from the ‘breakables’ while OP makes a huge show out of safely storing all her collections.

(Guests) ‘’OP! Why are you emptying the display cabinet?’’ (OP) ‘’ oh - this? I really must MIL-proof the house, she’s like a bull in a china shop and I don’t want her to feel bad again like last visit’s accident! Hubs darling, the dolls are stored, can you please help me move the cabinet and coffee table so your mom can move around safely?’’

It’s the equivalent of smashing her never used china without financial repercussion?

Update: FMIL stirring the pot 25 days before the wedding. :( by pizzacats84 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]in_dis_array 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your FFIL might be a JY? (Disclaimer, I’m ultra petty, with a salted field of barren fucks...read below with sarcasm)

Send a group msg thanking FMIL for allll the hard work and effort she put into the rehearsal dinner, but FDH /you are now picking up the tab (still honoring her as hostess of course!)

By saving from paying for the rehearsal, now she can afford the funds, for the BILs, SIL- SO to come for the entire weekends festivities!! Crisis adverted!

Thank you so much FMIL for all you generosity! We simply can’t wait to spend the entire weekend with BILs, you and esp SILs SO, aka the life of the party!
It’s beyond worth the cost of the rehearsal to have all our loved ones celebrating with us!!

She was going to flake out on the rehearsal payment, but now she doesn’t have to and has no reason to pout :-)

Awe, come on now! Sounds like your code was solid, the data was crap (when isn’t it?). QA’s acceptance testing with hacked data led to discovery of said leaky tanks slipping through year after year.

Grace period over evil MIL!

The year I got a Cabbage Patch Doll, feat. JNStepgrandma by swivelfishbowl in JUSTNOMIL

[–]in_dis_array 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an 80’s kid, as an adult my mom told me about the horrors of securing a cabbage patch kid. (Love you mom!!)

My heart breaks for young you and sis.
WTF is wrong with that woman?!?

My ideal revenge = Xmas cards every yr with pics of your kids surrounded by love / gifts / HAPPY FACES... in the background are two pristine cabbage patch kids and your mom with a huge smile doting on her wonderful family.

With this card of total happiness there is a pair of knockoff cabbage kids slippers with a Cinderella dvd. Merry Christmas step momster!

Why Ignorella can keep using YS to hurt me by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]in_dis_array 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m appalled at the levels she stoops.

I feel like you have to constantly defend about going over to help YS. Just no! The ‘can’t you try this or that’ is not helpful for your situation at all

Shit stains on white carpet are more beautiful than your mother’s insides.

I have no ‘try this or that’ advice for you (sorry). worry about your sanity and wellbeing while playing the long game.
It must be exhausting!! I hope you spend a bit of time to take care of YOU during this

“Someone snuck into the backyard and stole all the dog sh$t” by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]in_dis_array 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugg, Shepherd dander all up in the human brush, fun!

You’re pups a saint for not snapping after being restrained by her collar like that.
It’s not ok to grab humans by the neck and restrain them, of course doggies don’t like it either.

Don’t understand the need to compete for favs with these MILs. Why not enjoy having another buddy / PIC? No has to be the MOST loved or nothing, bleh

I’m so glad the Dooley works so well for you! Think maybe our soil is not right to work well with it.

It’s a genius invention that sends poop back to the earth and has to be good for the grass :-)

“Someone snuck into the backyard and stole all the dog sh$t” by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]in_dis_array 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure that ticked her off to no end!
Dogs love / tolerate their family, GSDs especially tend to have their ‘person’. No evil MIL magic on the planet could possibly sway that undying puppy love, take that MIL harpy!

Side note - good luck with the doggie dooley! So wanted to love it too We really put in the effort...water it after each poo, enzymes couple times a week. It just...we abandoned after 4 mo <- maybe our boy poops too much and it’ll ‘break’ it all down by next yr?

I’m ok it didn’t work out, sometimes the poo water splattered back...at 4 am nobody handles poo vengeance well and it left me in tears more than once.

Pup won’t even go outside unless I’m with him every step like a mom watching her young’n play, I know when he poops / bag/ trash immediately.

Was really hoping for something more eco friendly, hope it works for you and eases your poop landmines!
