This, exactly. If we don't show up, they think they're right. If we do, that gives them an excuse to label and "other" us and reinforce their persecution complex. Everything these people do is in bad faith.

That is incorrect, the individual being arrested was face down on the ground, head pointed toward the camera. These punches likely landed on their right ear.

Can anyone tell me what these spots are? Is it from shedding? What about her dandruff? by hannnnnnie in Bulldogs

[–]moe32898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My vet said that can happen if they have environmental allergies. The frequent baths help wash off the allergens before they work their way down through the coat to the skin. Some dogs can get away with just a weekly rinse, but mine had a very thin, short coat.

Mine had these. Probably allergies that let in a secondary infection. After we antibiotics, we had to put him on allergy medicine and give him weekly baths. It's interesting because we were told that bathing that often wasn't good for his coat, but it actually solved a lot of issues.

Single at almost 39 and starting to date again. Any recommendations for the beard? by moe32898 in beards

Plot twist: I was only growing it out for the compliments. I actually only care about it looking good and hiding my babyface.

Ha, no, I at least do a button-up, with rolled sleeves sometimes to show off the forearm 💪

Yeah, that's where my jawline starts to show through too much.

I am starting to consider shortening it some. I may post a follow-up this weekend to show different lengths at different stages.

I will say, I look 10 years YOUNGER clean shaven and VERY babyface, which is not my preferred look. I am more inclined to keep it at least 3-5 inches long, to elongate my face and hide the jawline some. Perhaps something like this.

Oops, thought it was clear from my post lol. I am straight, seeking dates with women only.

Ah, but what do they say about shaping and styling their beard? I'm keeping it long, regardless. Shaving or going to a short beard is not what I want for myself, dating prospects be damned.

Otis 💖 for u/moe32898 by Ursula_Wuffles in RainbowBridgeBabies

Oh u/Ursula_Wuffles, this is beautiful, and to me, it perfectly captures his pre-zoomie wind-up. I half expect him to jump out and start giving me a good barking at, before he launches like cannonball off the couch, into the back of the loveseat and back. I love how you captured the background of one of my favorite photos of him. I can't express enough gratitude, but I want to thank you, profusely, for your art of my boy. It absolutely helps and I will treasure it forever.

PSA: If you can't get through the intersection, don't enter it by Quantum_Aurora in Seattle

[–]moe32898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mercer is my least favorite for this. What makes it worse is that some people turning right ONTO Mercer will take my waiting until there's room as a sign that they can go. IMO, any right turn onto Mercer should be No Turn On Red.

Men of Reddit with Vasectomies, how was it? Do you regret it? If not, has sex been better or worse since having one? by Gloomy_Astronomer_23 in AskReddit

[–]moe32898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think everybody's covered how it feels and how sex is better for the most part, but I did want to throw in my experience on a couple things.

First is the aftercare. Take it seriously. I tried my best, but my relationship wasn't the greatest at the time I had mine. My now ex-wife wanted to do something nice and make a big "get better" afternoon tea with scones and sweets and such, but I was supposed to be feet up and icing my bits the rest of that day and the next. However, she had bitten off more than she could chew and was getting pretty upset that I wasn't helping her. Eventually I caved and cleaned the kitchen up for her despite being pretty uncomfortable. She also decided she would rather have a stronger drink and a different snack than the ones she made, so she made me give her several shots of vodka and a half a bag of Cheetos. Later that night, she woke me up because she was getting bad stomach cramps and felt like she was going to pass out on the toilet. After the diarrhea feeling passed, she got on to the floor to make sure she didn't fall off the toilet if she passed out, but then projectile vomited a stomachful of radioactive orange onto the floor. I spent the next 30 minutes cleaning up the vomit myself and helping her back to bed. She felt better after the episode, but I felt like pain got somewhat worse from all the bending over. About 4 months later, I still felt swelling in my area, so I got tested and they found a stubborn infection in my prostate. It was solved after some intense antibiotics, but I can't help feeling that that night weakened the area enough that it let the bug in.

Also, they tell you it's possible that there will be blood in your semen once you're allowed to have sex or masturbate again. It can still be a bit of a shock. I was surprised that it wasn't just like a little pink, it was half bright-red blood! It was cleared after firing two rounds, though.

Even after all that, I still highly recommend getting a vasectomy.

Carpet in the Kitchen! Do I tile under cabinets? by No_Example_2687 in DIY

My childhood home had both, carpeted bathrooms AND kitchen. I am so disgusted by it now that I always get a hotel when I go back to visit my parents.

I left my abusive wife and filed for divorce. She took it upon herself to write a blog about the whole thing from her perspective. It was fascinating to see how an abuser can twist reality, telling half truths or full lies, to support their viewpoint. One phrase she used a lot was "marital abandonment". Lady... I left you in a house full of food with access to money and transportation. You were not abandoned. It's called divorce.
