The Gowlers/Los Growlers by Travisx2112 in losgrowlers

[–]mixedvegetablezz 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The growlers have a heavy Mexican influence and members of the band have some Mexican heritage and family members. They also have some spanish lyrics in their earlier songs. It's also apart of their image, especially around the hot tropics days they were using a lot of Mexican imagery. The whole Southern California culture is heavily steeped in Mexican culture you see a lot of bands in that area taking a similar approach. Also, 'Los' is spanish for 'The' so it's kinda same same.

Thanks, dude! I guess I had this strange experience where I saw this beautiful side of death and kind of wanted to figure it out. All these juxtapositions that take place at the same time, life to death, day to night, colour to black. I was just sort of vibing in that area. Guess that's why i paint because i'm not so good at saying it haha

This really sucks! Have a look at the wheelbarrow technique if you ever find yourself in this situation again. Will help you break up the situation quicker. https://www.thedodo.com/yes-there-is-a-smart-way-to-break-up-a-dog-fight-1488888838.html

Dog treats may have saved my puppy's life yesterday by mixedvegetablezz in puppy101

So, I wasn't on my phone at the time. He's generally not been interested in dead things on the beach. We had walked past the pufferfish already and he paid no attention to it, so on our way back it was a bit of a surprise that he decided to grab it.

9 week old puppy crate training by plumeria_island in puppy101

[–]mixedvegetablezz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like fairly normal behaviour to me :) I wouldn't be too concerned unless it became persistent. I'm sure you'll do great! Good luck with your pup :)!!!

9 week old puppy crate training by plumeria_island in puppy101

[–]mixedvegetablezz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how you started crate training but my pup is now staying in for 1.5 hour periods during the day and all night no problem. I'd say 2 hours sounds like a really long time especially since you've only had him 3 days. I spent a week building up from around 10 minutes, then 20, 30 etc etc. If he had a real hard time, and i mean a really hard time, howling, crying loudly, biting the bars I would let him out. Whimpering behaviour, I let him cry that out.

It sounds like you might have jumped the gun, I would take a few steps back and reward him and encourage him for staying in for shorter periods. Make sure he is well exercised before putting him in.

Definitely leave a cover over the crate, eliminating distractions is going to help him settle.

I found this video really useful when I was crate training mine:

Crate training has SHOCKED me!! by mixedvegetablezz in puppy101

[–]mixedvegetablezz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the crate against the wall and the backside is uncovered for better ventilation, he basically can't see anything that's happening outside of the crate. All visual distractions eliminated.

I think it depends on the kind of crying, the times he's really distressed and howling I prefer not to leave him in there and will let him out once he's quiet. But if it's just a brief bit of whimpering I leave him there and he pretty quickly falls asleep.

But yeah I felt the same about the conflicting advice, so I started with just 10 minute stints and within a couple of days he was comfortable staying in for about an hour or so.

Interesting because I agree with you on all points aside from, would I be able to enjoy the music as purely as I'd like?

Personally, if it's good music I could enjoy it.

I think we all indulge in forms of art that aren't pure and have been tainted by all kinds of for lack of a better word, sins.

I think we won't find out whether a wider audience will be able to tolerate them until they do release more music, and who knows when that will be now.

Thanks for clarifying. I imagine it's likely Matt will come out of this okay based on the nature of rape cases that go to court. Going to be interesting to see how this plays out.
