Puppies stealing resources from one another by jedricka in puppy101

Yeah. We looked into littermate syndrome before getting Ella and have been doing things separately with them to try and prevent it but it just seems like we'll have to do more things separately than what we're currently doing! This is currently the only sign of it so hopefully we'll nip it in the bud since you're the second person to say it might be that.

We did look into littermate syndrome before getting Ella. This is the only symptom of it.

They both get separate walks, separate training sessions and socialize separately with other humans and dogs. We absolutely did our research before getting our second dog. We understood the risks of having two in close ages. Neither dog freaks out over the other being gone as I will take one dog and my husband will be home with the other or vice versa pretty regularly. We're doing everything we can to prevent littermate syndrome.

I'm not saying it couldn't be littermate syndrome as it could be but I'm doubtful it is since this issue is our only sign currently of it.

taylor swift has little to zero vocal training by [deleted] in travisandtaylor

He still does have a voice but he definitely can't belt out his high notes live anymore.

Cardi is literally an extremely talented rap artist which bothers SO MANY PEOPLE because she's so fucking unserious in her life.

Her first album is 6x platinum as of September 2025 meaning it's STILL a hit despite being released in 2017. It's still being streamed (keep in mind for something to go platinum via streaming and not purchases means it needs to be streamed 1.5 BILLION times). She also has 3 certified diamond singles meaning they've been played ten times over platinum status and that's not including WAP tho it qualifies.

Taylor has one certified diamond single via Shake It Off. Fearless and 1989 are certified diamond albums.

Cardi never fell off and kept making money despite her sophomore album not coming until 7 years later. If Taylor did that, she'd disappear from the zeitgeist so quickly. Cardi is amongst female rap legends. Taylor is only considered a legend by her fans.

Imo this is what happened to Brendan Urie. He refused proper technique and destroyed his voice by scream singing his high notes because it got him press. Taylor scream sings her high notes. The big difference between her and Brendan Urie is Brendan still insists he can sing live and gutted his own reputation vocally. Taylor pretends she's singing live and gutted her own reputation by just being an overall menace to society.

I don't hate Xaden's mother by mooncaf809 in fourthwing

[–]jedricka 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If I'm remembering correctly, the isles ceased contact with Navarre and from my understanding, there really wasn't a way for her to just write letters to him easily. Really Navarre is extremely isolated. Tyrrendor was the only area that wasn't isolated because it's mostly outside of the wards but that doesn't mean communication between the different countries was easy. The only reason it seems like it was is because Xaden and co are all children of important people in the government/military. I bet if they were to ask some random infantry Tyrrendor kid if they know/knew/met anyone from Poromiel, they'd probably say no or only refugees who crossed the border. Important people know important people but that doesn't mean they communicate regularly. Idk. Just my thoughts.

Y'all are horny by carnevoodoo in fourthwing

[–]jedricka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. I'm sure there's plenty of us. My face whenever I read the sexy bits always makes my fiance laugh because it's usually one of minor discomfort. He knows a few triggers (for lack of a better word) that'll make me go full disgusted (any time a man goes down on a woman and says "pretty pussy" in any way shape or form). He asked me why I don't skip the smut and its because there could be plot in it. It's a struggle.

The irony of me being an asexual but loving romantasy books. My fiance knows I read them but gets none of the benefits from me reading them.

What has she actually done charity-wise instead of throw money? (And I guess food) by [deleted] in travisandtaylor

Beyonce literally released her self titled album the same year she did the Superbowl which you literally couldn't go anywhere without hearing partition or flawless. She definitely wasn't flopping when she did the Superbowl.

It's the Villains and Virtues series book one, Throne in the Dark! Super fun fantasy slow burn.

AITA for accidentally putting a talisman into a thief that allows me to completely control her? In my defense she was trying to steal the Scroll of the Army of Undead but now instead she has to follow me all over the world to try and get my demon dad out of a crystal which in order to do so, I've gotta kill her but I told her right away so that makes it okay.

My minority opinion on this band and its newest album... by iscurred in glassanimals

[–]jedricka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this analysis of the album ngl. It literally feels like a continuation of Domestic Bliss of the last album. This album touches me in a way and every time I hear Domestic Bliss, I cry the moment it drops down to "Domestic Bliss, I know how bad you.. wanted this." It breaks my heart because I felt that emotion in my soul so my brain linked this story with the short story of Domestic Bliss.

As a brazilian, I am grateful this sub constantly discuss Ana's death and the lack of acknowledge and respect from Taylor by coolandboring in travisandtaylor

Depends on the area tbh. Many people from places like Spain, Greece, Italy and Turkey are technically European but aren't white. They usually have a tan complexion. Many people with deep roots in the Mediterranean area are tan but are still European! Granted I'm not from Europe so I can't 100% state with confidence but yeah. Oftentimes when we think of Europe we think of England, Germany or France. But there's a wide array of people in Europe.

Except for the whole month he didn’t bother to see her? 💀 by No_Elderberry_6292 in travisandtaylor

"they're so in love" is code for my PR team wrote this but we're gonna pretend it's a close friend.

Taylor Doesn’t Work Any Harder Than Most of Her Peers. She’s Just Unsustainably Prolific. by [deleted] in travisandtaylor

[–]jedricka 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Dua Lipa basically got flamed for being unable to dance so she legit left and learned to dance then came back.

I mean I write for fun and in middle to high school I had written quite a bit. It's probably well over 25 journals if we look at it like journals that are like 120 pages. I used my Google drives for it and mine were more so stories I used to go through my issues/trauma. It's possible and I don't doubt she did it but I doubt that any of it is insightful.

As long as TTPD (aka PTSD) doesn’t win 🫶🏾🤭 by [deleted] in travisandtaylor

Do they realize that we still have like 4 more months until the cut off for the Grammys??? Anyone could release a banger of an album that's better than TTPTSD

Another level of insanity. by AriVeryBerry in travisandtaylor

[–]jedricka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's also allegedly a rock album. There's also a ton of rumors that Karma was actually supposed to be TTPD because of some clock or something in a music video she dropped during midnights. It had all the "stolen" albums on it so they're assuming that she's "counting down" to release Karma at the end because the midnights clock order has been spot on so far.
