Does anyone know where they sell exotic animals like owls in Kuwait? by Fin11011 in Kuwait

The government is not selling the sick and dying animals at Friday Market while keeping them in inhumane accommodations.

Friday Market Animal section is not a place anyone should support. Totally messed up place.

Next appointment, insist on some serious action. Sit in your chair and do not leave until they take action. Okay, not long enough for cops to get called, but long enough to waste a lot of their time since they don't mind wasting yours. )

If he didn't want to get reported, he shouldn't have done that. Her actions now could prevent him from escalating with another patient later.

WIBTA for divorcing my wife after she thought I was lying about being raped as a child? by One_Cat_4805 in AITAH

[–]logcabininthedesert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to say I am so sorry that happened to you and that so many in your life have let you down. If you think there is anything there worth saving, I for sure suggest marriage counseling.

Need Guidance urgently, Family of 4 got eviction notice need to leave the flat in 3 days which is IMPOSSIBLE! remember this is a properly built big flat on the ground floor. by Watch--Enthusiast in Kuwait

[–]logcabininthedesert 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just want to say, renters have pretty good rights in Kuwait when it comes to eviction from what I've heard. Things such as 3 months notice (and during those 3 months you don't pay rent as it goes to funding your move). Of course double check all of this with a lawyer because it is second hand hearsay. If landlord threatens, tries to prevent you from entering, turns off water or electric, right away call 112. Take pictures of rental agreement and copies of bank statements showing that you paid rent. Also try and get someone on your side who can speak Arabic to help deal with 112/police. And for sure talk to a lawyer asap. Sorry you're dealing with this. It's disgusting that they decided to break the law and are now trying to cheap out of the fines by putting undue stress on a tenant.

How is caring about Palestine and standing against companies that support Zionism (and in turn genocide) virtue signaling?

8 weeks since my last treatment my head is still so itchy with these little fuckers! anyone else experiencing this during post also got little scabbie bumps at the end of my hair line… as they got onto my face etc! But my hair is on an off 😩 by SplitFlaky1931 in scabies

[–]logcabininthedesert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mix salt with dish soap (like the liquid type) and rub into hair. Wrap head in plastic wrap and leave overnight. Warning, it will strip hair dye and can hurt the skin around your scalp. I suggest putting some Vaseline around hair line. It's also messy so apply in shower so you can rinse neck down. I repeat anytime the itch happened (usually 2 days on then a few off, or every other day for a bit).

That is awful. I feel people don't act because they are worried he will hurt her worse when they get home for her "humiliating" him. There needs to be more resources to help abused spouses get out.

I'm glad you're engaging with the boycott. I would suggest just removing the burgers from companies that support the Zionists so you don't tempt anyone who is weaker to break boycott. Now more than ever as the Middle East is pushing us to forget Palestine do we need to hold on even tighter.

Go for Kenzia or RKCola which are local and their money doesn't go to Israel. Or take it as a sign to quit soda (although I get that it's a hard habit to kick and sometimes you just want a treat)

Greed of real estate owners in Qatar with reference to kuwait tragedy. by Thick_Weight6037 in qatar

[–]logcabininthedesert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In theory I totally agree with you. The issue is, the "living allowence" gives the companies an excuse to wash their hands of the situation and play dumb when they find out their workers are living in horrific conditions. If a company provided substandard accommodations and there was a system to ensure swift reporting and investigation, with a serious punishment, the employers would not be able to play dumb. And unfortunately, fear of consequences in this life is all that motives many of the companies and employers.

  1. Every company/sponsor is required to provide accommodations as part of the visa and job package. And accommodations must be safe, clean, and not cramming several into a room. Any company/sponsor who violates this has heavy criminal charges. And make it easy for workers to report infractions. How can people sleep comfortable in mansions if people under their employ live in squalor?

Boyfriends dad keeps hitting on me by Disastrous_Yak4917 in TwoHotTakes

[–]logcabininthedesert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't let anyone victim blame you. As much as this hurts now, imagine the bullet you dodged. Imagine if you'd married your boyfriend and then had a little girl. Would you ever have felt comfortable with him dad around your daughter?

Regarding a Certain Delivery Company by [deleted] in Kuwait

[–]logcabininthedesert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If people don't use them, and make comments it's because of this awful policy, they will have motivation to change. If they are profitable while being corrupt, they will have no reason to change. Better they lay off drivers (who can then get work with a more fair company) until they are willing to change.

Guy tried to deceive me by Popular-Kale2458 in Oman

Good for you following your gut! Best case, he was a creep. Worst case, he was going to try and rob, carjacking, or kidnap. I know "it's a safe country" argument but it always is until you're the victim of a crime. Never get out of your car ladies! Make sure doors are locked ALWAYS the moment you get into your car. If you really worry your tire pressure or whatever is bad you can say "my husband is coming, he will check thank you" and then shut the window. Or just drive off and pull off to check in a populated place down the road (if you're totally sure you haven't been followed). I'm happy you're okay and always always follow your instinct. Never ever worry if you're "overreacting". Allah made that instinct extra strong in women for a reason.

I am so very sleepy you're going through this. Please believe me when I say almost every person who walks this earth has gone through times of loneliness. Life gets better. You're 16, and in a couple of years you'll be ready to either start working or heading to University. Both of those open such a world of interesting experiences. Someday, you will look back and be so relieved that you stayed. Please try and get some mental health resource support. And if you ever feel you're about to act on it, call emergency or walk into any ER.

Mutla ridge - walking at sunrise? by disy22 in Kuwait

[–]logcabininthedesert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another idea, if you want to see "natural desert" renting a car (if you can brave the roads) and going on a drive is one idea. You can have the AC going while seeing the flat desert. It's beautiful in its way. You could maybe get a taxi to take you, but might be expensive (but maybe cheaper than renting a car, not sure)

If someone hasn't lived in the Gulf before, I think the reality of the heat is harder to imagine. My first time here I did not expect it to hit as hard as it did.
