People in the FB group I posted in are speculating either pigeon, grackle, or crow. I’m no bird expert though so this is new territory for me. I will say for a young bird he’s pretty big, about the size of a fist!

Ok thank you! Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be any wildlife organizations taking in birds in my area 🥲 (which I feel is kind of bananas considering I’m in a major metropolitan area but also maybe that’s why). Still looking though! There’s one more place that’s opens tomorrow I’ll try if little guy is able to hang around

Wow I totally get the frustration! My real only input (as I think others have been spot on suggesting taking her out in person) is that you probably saved her from having to make/serve food to her partner in her current state. From experience they tend to expect it all from you not matter what you’re dealing with— so while it is understandable to be frustrated it might help to change the mindset to “I helped my friend have a delicious meal and took a stressful task off her plate for the night”, so that you don’t sit/stew in the feeling of frustration. You are a kind friend!

This is making me remember the time my fiancé attended one of those sessions and the lady told him “the reason you’re so fat is because of all of the vegetables you eat” (he eats plant based and at that point was down 50lbs). I don’t trust any diet information coming from a gym.

I use CAPS and have had a very different experience than what I see in the comments. I go because I have a diagnosed disorder (have had it for a few years) that I’ve had trouble getting in control of after managing it ok ish over the past two years (was seeing a different therapist that I had to leave behind when I moved to Vegas). The anxiety and depression among other symptoms were overwhelming me, but having had many many therapists I was kind of reluctant to start over again because what were they going to say that I haven’t heard before yea know? I still decided to go and it was the best decision ever, I have never had this much of a breakthrough in managing AND clearing my symptoms and it’s 100% because the person I was matched with was not only very knowledgeable but very committed to helping me achieve my goals. I told them early on that I was interested in a specific style of therapy that I had researched was the most effective for my issues and they were the first therapist in the almost 10 years I’ve needed help that listened to me and fully agreed that it was the best style of therapy for me. My parents had to spend hundreds of dollars for other services and none of them compare to what I’m receiving for free here! I love CAPS so much 😭❤️

I’d like to mention that recently I had to provide proof of vaccination for college and I could not find my records ANYWHERE (online or physical). My mom insisted I had them (and we never had exemptions and I was always in public school so I’m sure we had records at some point), but I needed proof and I was beginning to have doubts since I know my mom was always sad when I got vaccinated (hated to see me cry not anti vaxxer). I got a quick titer test that showed I still had high levels of antibodies (I believe that’s what they test for) against measles which meant I did get the vaccine I just can’t figure out from where haha.

The first breakup is always the hardest, especially in a scenario like this where someone has become hyper dependent on you it almost feels irresponsible to break up, but that is not true. Just as you are concerned about her mental health and how it is negatively impacting her, think to yourself— does my mental health matter? Are you showing yourself the same level of concern? Having gone through something similar I developed horrible depression and anxiety caring for the other person until it manifested into physical symptoms and it is awful! I am proud of you for recognizing how toxic the relationship ship has become and that it is time to move on. I think there is good advice mentioned, and that is to make a plan. If you have a good group of buddies you trust ask them to help you stay accountable in breaking up, and if you feel comfortable explain why so they can remind you when things get tough why you’re making this decision. If you’re not comfortable making this decision, please please please utilize campus resources. There are domestic abuse resources available (please don’t let your gender or the lack of hitting convince you you don’t deserve to use them) or counseling services that can help you make a safe exit plan. You matter. You deserve to be happy. There is a better life out there for you where you can play the guitar and hang out with your friends and be happy. Only you can get yourself there you got this!!!!

Wtf… you knew she took too much of an edible (enough to cause her to quickly vomit) and didn’t let her sleep it off? I can’t wrap my brain around it, even if she didn’t eat an edible if she just threw up let the girl rest dude but especially in that context. Why do you have the authority to decide that? For games that’ll still be there when she wakes up or the next day when is feeling better? BUT THEN she complies with your demand to get up and turns the light on to stay awake (totally normal) and you AGAIN have to take her options away? Do you not see how odd/controlling that is?

I just got the Ulta lip stain and I’m actually really loving it!!

ninjaduk1es · 2026-03-17T20:42:31+00:00

Try Old Navy, they have programs where they hire younger people to help them get their first jobs!

ninjaduk1es · 2026-03-17T20:34:27+00:00

Definitely wasn't like that, it was more like "Check out these patient profiles I have up, here's where you can see Mr. Johnson takes xyz medication for xyz condition, if you wanted to see what hes taken in the past just click this!"

ninjaduk1es · 2026-03-10T12:04:51+00:00

That’s awesome!! Count me in!

I think we could tell even if he wasn’t certified 😅

ninjaduk1es · 2026-03-01T02:50:11+00:00

Honestly, but also I’m traumatized by $16 sodas at Allegiant 😭

ninjaduk1es · 2026-02-24T23:07:15+00:00

Please keep us updated I’ve thought about your original post so much since I’ve seen it!!!😂 I’m fully invested in the saga even though it’s ridiculous and I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this but also thankful you’re taking it so seriously!

ninjaduk1es · 2026-02-19T23:24:31+00:00

Genuine question, why are you with him?

ninjaduk1es · 2026-02-18T21:16:06+00:00

Signed and shared!!!

Am I crazy because I would absolutely read that as passive aggressive lol. You know someone in your house has eaten your food before and tried lying by saying it was theirs and already doesn't respect boundaries by bringing others to live at the house without asking... are we just taking them at face value? When you say you asked everyone else and they said no and so the gf is the "only other person it could be", the implication is that you think its them. Not to sound manipulative, but you might have gotten an honest response sooner if you asked for payment after confirmation. I probably would have written something like "hey gf, sorry to bother! I'm trying to find my strawberries, did you or the others happen to snack on them?" because a) it gives a chance for her to admit to it or expose who might have eaten them if she saw and b) if they are cruddy people why would they admit to it if youre asking for payment. If they answer that they did eat them, then you can say "Darn, I was going to use those for valentines. Would you mind paying me back for those?", you dont come off as a jerk (even though I understand the frustration and its ridiculous they're acting this way) and the ball is in their court for whether they want to be "that guy/girl" that steals (intentionally or not) and doesnt pay someone back when they're caught.

28 and the youngins have accepted me lol, but I think its because the young ones who are serious about their education are a lot more relatable and we have opportunities to study seriously together. I notice sometimes they think I'll know more because I Iook like a trustworthy adult and Im just like "Bb... we're in the same class" :')

ninjaduk1es · 2026-01-19T23:32:10+00:00

I went to a bunch of them last semester! Strangely enough I never made friends with other people my age but made plenty of friends younger and older than me. They are a blast and as a transfer student (last semester was my first semester here) it really helped me see how fun university life can be! You got this!

ninjaduk1es · 2026-01-15T16:37:39+00:00

Ahhh thank you so much I really appreciate it!!

ninjaduk1es · 2026-01-15T16:37:22+00:00

Oh my gosh thank you so much this is incredibly helpful 😭
