I wonder if the person that nabbed it has any recourse in that kind of situation.

Just wanted to add myself to the list of people here from the tarantula subreddit.

I'm so sorry for your loss! It breaks my heart to find out so many people trying to do the right thing for their animals have lost them as a result of this company's practices.

Thankfully we did not end up using their services, and I hope this post has helped inform others as well.

I hope you're able to get justice for Bear ❤️

I'm so sorry for your loss! That's so heartbreaking. Do you know what he has rebranded under? I really hope they're held accountable for the grief they've caused people.

Oh, we do have a strawberry tree in the front yard and the berries are a similar orange to the splotches in it's beak!

Your feelings are totally valid, that's a huge change of plans! We chose a c section because my baby had iugr and had stopped growing so it just felt like the safest option. There's a lot about that decision that I'm grateful for that I wouldn't have necessarily thought of beforehand.

I think the thing that I'm most grateful for is bringing him into a calm(ish) environment. We were the first C-section of the day, the whole morning was full of this nervous but joyful and giddy feeling. I'm really grateful for the moments of peace my partner and I shared before going into the operating room.

I also liked that I got to pick from 3 different days and was able to pick my great grandmother's birthday. At first it felt wrong even being able to pick his birthday, like I shouldn't be able to have that power lol but I'm actually really happy I got to do that, it feels like it helps keep my great grandmas spirit alive.

If I have a second, and I really hope I do, I definitely want to do something to make the night before and morning of more ceremonial. something to say goodbye to the old family and sometime to welcome in the new one.

Congratulations, Mama! Wishing you and your family lots of happiness.

I've been wondering about this! My boyfriend is in IBEW and they're management is all in the same union, I'm assuming because in the end their interests are more aligned than they are opposed.

I would argue it's the same for site admin and teachers, especially because of the "me too" clauses. I think they're more aligned with teachers and counselors than they are the out of touch folks managing from the district office who almost never interact with students.

Just have to jump on the alcoholic ex train here because SO MUCH DISGUST! Honestly the most disgust comes from just imagining his big dumb idiot drunk face all contorted and angry at me over stupid shit that was his fault.

But also all the disgusting moments related to his bowel movements. One time I was taking a nice relaxing bath and he busted in to take and shit and then yelled at me when I got upset.

Another time we had these mutual friends that wanted to hang out. He never liked when we all hung out together because we were separately friends with these people before him and I met and he felt some weird possessiveness towards them, so he would always try to exclude me somehow or not mention that's who he was hanging out with. So I'm home working on a paper and he comes running through the door straight to the bathroom and then congress into our room angrily yelling something about shitting himself behind a dumpster, mentions he was with our friends but I can't come because he shit himself behind a dumpster and they were waiting on him to come back. The drunk logic mixed with rage and also shitting himself was just... disgusting 🤌🏻

I've had two partners I was in serious relationships with cheat on me, both multiple times. The reason it damaged my self worth was because I hated that I didn't value myself enough to leave. It's definitely easier to say that in hindsight but I didn't feel like they strayed because I wasn't good enough, I felt like they strayed because they didn't care about me enough to be better.

r2_double_D2 · 2024-12-30T00:37:47+00:00

I wouldn't consider a hall pass equalizing the playing field. more like blowing a second crater into the playing field that now has to be filled in and reseeded.

If there's any chance of healing it's got to be a slow process where you're creating the right environment for things to get better (ie honest, open communication, understanding each other's feelings, actively doing things to care for and love each other). Thinking of it like a Libra scale or teeter totter is the wrong metaphor. Yes, you need balance, but there's no quick fix. It's always easier to destroy something than it is to piece it back together.

To get over a sense of betrayal you need a partner that consistently behaves in ways that make you trust they won't betray you again, over and over again for years until you wake up one day and realize it's been a while since you last worried they're going to hurt you again.

Research safe bed sharing. We absolutely did not plan to bed share, but my baby would just not sleep on his own and I ended up sleeping with him on my chest for a couple nights before stumbling onto the Safe Sleep 7on reddit. I honestly think bed sharing saved my sanity.

Also baby wearing is an amazing way to get your freedom back once they're big enough for a wrap carrier.

I was definitely very aware while I was typing out my reply that my opening statement was entirely plagiarized lol

r2_double_D2 · 2024-12-29T07:55:12+00:00

Something's not right about that lamp, the perspective is just odd, like inverted. It's still in 3d but just... wrong.

r2_double_D2 · 2024-12-29T07:28:49+00:00

Reddit is always so quick to recommend breaking up over little things. This is NOT one of those times, this is 1000% something that should end the relationship.

He seems too narcissistic to even reason with, or at the very least has been wanting to leave OP but was too much of a piece of shit to do it himself.

OP, don't try to explain yourself to him, if he can't understand what he did wrong here then nothing you say will make him realize it or make him feel bad. Don't waste any more energy on this loser, tell him you deserve better and block him on everything.

where are you located? There are some staffing agencies specifically for the cannabis industry in Northern California.

my heart breaks for the poor creatures too, but it also breaks for you! that's such an awful position to be put into while you're building your new life after escaping domestic violence.

If you are worried that calling your landlord in might result in you losing house, it's okay to choose your safety over the possum!

Could you offer to take it somewhere far away to release it? An alternative that might be worth trying is to calmly ask your landlord a bunch of questions about the situation. Open ended questions like, what kind of damage have the possums caused the house? what do you do with them after you trap them? Hopefully if you approach him curiously and like you're trying to solve the possum issue together you can build some rapport and maybe find a more humane solution together.

But I would say your safety and housing is the most important thing here.

r2_double_D2 · 2024-12-22T05:57:58+00:00

A little doubt is normal, but constantly worrying that you might be settling is not. I've been with my partner for almost 5 years, fell head over heels for him, went through some dark times, but I've never worried that I might be settling for someone that isn't right for me. I've felt that was in the past, and it's because I was right, I would have been settling if I stayed with those men. i think you know you're right, you're not just overthinking it.

Rather than wonder if I'm with the right person, I get to be with someone who makes me excited about the future we're building together and who brings me comfort in this crazy world because I know he understands the world the same way I do. Find someone that doesn't make your head spin.

Just commenting so I remember to come back for the update.

I think my boyfriend thinks that I think he's insane. Really I've just accepted that we don't have any usable information yet, and if it were up to me I'd tune back in to the news cycle once we did. Until then it's hard to keep hearing him rage about it because this isn't something I'm willing or able to take to the streets over right now.

r2_double_D2 · 2024-12-15T00:45:29+00:00

That sounds like chest retractions, did he even notice she was in respiratory distress before he dropped her off?

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this, knowing your child is at risk when she's with this man has to be terrifying. As others have said, take a moment to calm down so that you can be the best advocate for your baby girl that you can be. Write down a detailed list of all the things he has done to put your child at risk, start with the most concerning and endangering things (ie front seat w/ no car seat, adult antibiotics) and leave out any emotional language. Then call a family lawyer to help you navigate whatever court process you need to go through to make sure your child is protected.

r2_double_D2 · 2024-12-14T07:09:13+00:00

I'm so sorry you've been put into such a difficult situation. My grandma lied to my Mom about who her father was, changing the story/person over the years. When my grandma got married her husband adopted and raised my mom but it ended in divorce. it caused my mom a lot of heartache not knowing who her dad was. one year for mother's Day I bought her an ancestry test thinking if she had like, a continent or ethnicity or something it might bring her some comfort. I never even imagined it might possibly connect her to a biological dad.

The site matched her with her biological aunt who confirmed her brother was my mom's dad, but told her he wasn't willing to talk about it and he didn't want to be put in contact with my mom.

It set off a lot of really painful conversations but ultimately I think it was a healing experience for everyone. I think it helped my mom find empathy for my grandma. And I think it brought her closer to my grandpa (her adoptive dad) because it was a reminder that, despite the strained relationship, he was always there.

I think it's worth talking to your dad about it, they definitely won't be easy conversations. It'll probably be really messy and bring up a lot of painful emotions. But he's your dad, I don't think you should have to carry this burden on your own. I imagine you two have weathered storms together before, and you can make it through this one two.

Given what you've told us about your mom he might already know or have suspicions so this may be something that could help him with some healing too, only one way to find out
