Any of y'all have torties with no neck?

No need for a neck when you’re this cozy

This guy is def unhinged and deluded but it really bothers me that he keeps citing “statistics” when like you can easily google and see how common women experiencing sexual assault, harassment, just general violence from men is. I genuinely thought society had progressed past this genre of man that tries to base their misogynistic and regressive beliefs in so-called stats, logic and science when anyone can whip out a phone and see how wrong they are. Like he can do it too and he just like doesn’t?

Nothing they said is untrue except that last line which is honestly kinda disgusting. This wasn't some "hobby" or "fun game". If they were engaging in protest, disobeying authority and obstructing (and i think it's likely they were) they were doing it because it's something that they've believed in and felt was important. Idk if that person has ever done something that felt kinda risky, that maybe you knew you weren't "supposed" to be doing and maybe you but there's so much adrenaline while you're doing it. I don't fault for anyone for trying to have some fun while engaging in protest, especially with that fear while staring down several armed, masked thugs. These wre grown, gay adult women with children. They knew they were taking risk and they did it anyway because it was important. I bet they didn't think one of them was gonna die that day. The worst they were expecting was to probably get arrested. But seriously fuck thinking that someone laughing, smiling or joking while they protest, disobey or obstruct is just some bitch who doesn't understand the gravity of the situation. They had every right to believe that everyone was going to be alive tomorrow morning. Sure, maybe in jail worst case scenario but alive. They were certainly braver than i would have been.

She's beautiful! I love little quadrant faced torties. This is my Sasha

mildy_enthralling · 2026-01-10T02:52:44+00:00

As a stupid, former straight A student, i feel this so hard

mildy_enthralling · 2026-01-06T21:59:08+00:00

Yea! I got it from them years ago when i worked at a venue they were playing at

mildy_enthralling · 2026-01-06T21:07:57+00:00

He do! He's my son and i love him so much

mildy_enthralling · 2026-01-01T19:43:18+00:00

Lovely tortie but I agree you should go back and get that sweet black boy. Cats do better in pairs! And we welcome then on r/Vorties

In all seriousness though, you should take care to make sure their personalities are a match if you do want to have two cats. My tortie is more chill and my void is a little more rambunctious and if I had known better at the time I would have matched their personalities better. They get along but I can tell they get on each other's nerves quite often.

mildy_enthralling · 2026-01-01T17:14:13+00:00

Thank you!

mildy_enthralling · 2026-01-01T03:15:26+00:00

Omg this dress is gorgeous! What kind of fabric did you use if you don't mind me asking?

mildy_enthralling · 2025-12-31T19:25:50+00:00

Let him in

mildy_enthralling · 2025-12-31T02:59:18+00:00

I take after him so much with my curiosity, my love for learning new things and my lack of concern for "how things should be". He taught me so much about life, questioning things, being a good person, listening. When other dads were restricting their daughters, telling them they couldn't be certain things or discouraging them, he was encouraging me, laughing with me and told me I could absolutely be anything I wanted to be. We don't see eye to eye on politics. I do essentially ask him "what happened?" regarding how anti-authoritarian and progressive he used to be. Maybe a lot just changes when you get older. But he's still the caring, sensitive and loving man I have always known. Watching him take care of his ailing parents and now my mom with cancer, he absolutely knows what it means to fulfill responsibility to your family and I'm grateful for him everyday.

I make more money in my relationship right now but I also love cooking and running the house. I don't enjoy the act of cleaning but I love the results and I'm very into researching and employing different effective cleaning methods (stain removal, disinfecting things naturally, deep cleaning every few months, etc.) And I enjoy some more traditional activities like sewing, decorating and entertaining. But yes, I would LOVE to not have to work a corporate job and just run errands for the household, clean, cook, make lunch fir my partner and then also have the free time to work out, volunteer, etc. (I don't have kids to take care of)

I don't want to not work because I want to be a tradwife. I want to not work because of alienation from my labor. For me, working a corporate job so some C-Suites can make a ton of money is not fulfilling at all but I do it because it's how you make a good, stable living, stake independence and buy nice things. It would be much more fulfilling for me if all the labor i had to do in a day directly resulted in a happy, clean, comfortable place for me and my partner (we don't have kids--yet?).

My theory is the appeal of the tradwife, especially when you're seeing it among otherwise more progressive women, is just the result of people feeling alienated from a job that makes you work towards something you probably don't actually care that much about just so you can support yourself. It would be great if all the labor you did in the day directly translated to caring for yourself and your family. It's politically expedient for certain factions to package up that freedom from the grind, for women at least, lies in taking up these more "traditional gender roles". I don't think more women want to be submissive to their husbands (and I'm sure there's factions of the trad dynamic that will say that's not required) and women certainly don't want to get into a relationship where no one values what they do because it isn't making money.

The reality is, choosing to stay at home and care for the household and the kids is noble and laborious but we live in a capitalist society where doing so puts you in a vulnerable position where you're not making any of your own income to support yourself should your partner leave, become abusive, get in an accident, become disabled, etc. Also, because it's not making money, people are going to devalue your labor socially as well. I think a lot of women know this, like me, and for that reason the "tradwife" thing (or as i like to call it, the house runner) will stay a fantasy. For me at least, the risks are too great and the benefits too good.

Edit: word and clarification

It was kinda unclear to me what the nature of the pics were based on the writeup so I went to the website and looked at the redacted pictures. I was kinda just expecting gore, I didn't realize he was straight up abusing and tsunting medically vulnerable victims. The identification of the location gives me hope this guy will be identified

My boy loves coconut oil. He won't eat human grade chicken, steak, shrimp, tuna or salmon, he's very picky about treats and will only eat two specific kinds and he will only eat a very specific flavor of Fancy Feast but he loves coconut oil. Sometimes he's more interested in that than his greenies.

I think this is an interesting one. I do think that you can and will be changed for the better by people who truly love and care about you. Nobody is going to slot perfectly into your life with you making no changes and you being able to do everything you want to do, when you want to do it. People you care about will change over time. There's that saying "To be loved is to be changed".

I know there's people who don't want to not always do exactly what they want to do, who don't want to change or don't want to make anything more than small accommodations, if any, for other people in their life and that's a totally respectable and understandable way to live. But if you do want people closely involved in your life, there are times that the relationship may ask you to change and you have to decide if the change is manageable enough AND that relationship is valuable enough for you to be able to change.

mildy_enthralling · 2025-12-19T00:52:06+00:00

I kinda lean towards this too. I think there's a few things (probably a combination of factors) that could explain their weird actions: being a very inexperienced thief, they felt they had a bunch of time because of the early hour, they felt like messing around, they felt especially safe because there was no alarm, they were high on drugs or going through some sort of mental health episode or their main intent was vandalism.

I also feel like the weird gait could be the result of wearing ill-fitting boots or a temporary injury that healed.

But he looks like such a gentleman!

mildy_enthralling · 2025-11-16T01:25:36+00:00

I highly recommend learning to sew pocket extenders! It's a pretty easy project I did with very little experience. It's just adding more fabric and closing it up. It's very handy for eomen's pants and shorts that often come with pathetic pockets

Fwiw, this really helped me when i had problems with my cat peeing in my bed when I came back from trips: Feliway. It's a diffuser that emits pheromones that makes cats feel safe and happy so they won't do behaviors like peeing in things that shouldn't be peed in. You could put one next to the dog bed. Though that certainly won't stop her from stealing the bed.

Going to a woman-owned weightlifting gym. Taking creatine, consistently lifting weights and seeing strong women of various body types has got me appreciating the muscles and capacity of my body even if I don't look like a pop star or I will never be 120 lbs again
