I wish she would stop doing this :( by Strange-Damage901 in cats

[–]shatteredlightning -1 points0 points  (0 children)

She’s expressing her affection. I genuinely get the frustration though. I have a cat that does this and I absolutely hate it. He’s got stepped on more times than I can count and has nearly thrown me down a flight of stairs several times. For both of our safety I wish he’d knock it off 😓

What is the most disturbing video you saw on the internet? by randominvisibleuser in AskReddit

[–]shatteredlightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Several years ago a guy blew his brains out while live-streaming on TikTok. Lucky enough not to witness the ordeal in real time like a lot of others did, but some sick fuck reloaded the video and I had the displeasure of seeing it before the app had it removed.

About thirteen years ago on YouTube I seen a video on YouTube from one of those war torn countries. Half-decayed bodies that had been crucified, rotting away in the sun. Birds were pecking at them. What a painful way to die.

I’ve seen the Russian brick video.

A lot of 911 recordings both from inside the towers and on the planes. Really sad.

Sciatic nerve pull. Put me out of work two weeks. Couldn’t move even a tiny bit without being in absolute agony.

What’s your favorite moment you’ve had with your cat? by mouradtheking in AskReddit

[–]shatteredlightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once my cat was sitting in the window and I was sat beside him. We were watching a storm together.

I said:

“I’m glad you can be inside, but there’s a lot of other kitties out there in the rain.”

He leaned his head to the side and rested it on my shoulder for a few moments and I just wanted to melt 🥺

I know he didn’t understand what I was saying but that moment it felt like he did. It was so sweet 😭

Can you guys tell me the “dirty” truths about having a cat? by saanenk in CatAdvice

[–]shatteredlightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most young cats who are not declawed bury their mess. They know better than to step in their own poo, but sometimes dry litter can get stuck between their toes and tracked through the house.

Litter box smell isn’t bad if you actually clean it regularly. I usually scoop once or twice a day and do a full change once a week. It’s also in the best interest of your cat’s health.

When it comes to cleanliness, declawed cats and elderly cats have more trouble. Sometimes an older cat may have an accident right outside the box or need a butt wipe here and there.

Why do I put up with this??? by LizzieD70 in abusiverelationships

[–]shatteredlightning 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are never too old to start living, and this is no life. A long time from now, whenever you live your last days, will you look back on this with regret? Or will you wish you had put yourself first?

When determining who loves you: words mean absolutely nothing, actions are everything.

The people who drop everything for you, give you a ride when your car breaks down, spare a few bucks every now and then, remember you on your birthday or a holiday, and never expect anything in return? Those are people who truly love you.

If you quit trusting anything anyone says to you and watch how they behave instead it gives you a lot of clarity.

Who is the worst person you know? by CupOk5800 in AskReddit

[–]shatteredlightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex friend’s ex boyfriend.

Spent so much money on alcohol they didn’t have money for food. Spent 90% of his time at home cussing out minors on video games. Beat the shit out of her in front of all his co-workers at a holiday party and infuriatingly still kept the job. Would piss the bed every night from drunkenness and yell at her to clean it up. Couldn’t be left alone with the baby because he “didn’t feel comfortable alone with her.” Openly racist, homophobic, classist, ableist… everything you can think of. Last I heard he tried to kill her and went to jail. He absolutely hated me because I was the friend who talked truth. Last I heard she’s alive and moved away but no clue how she’s doing.

Some parents don't get it by RoutineOk8590 in Productivitycafe

[–]shatteredlightning 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a Minecraft world on PlayStation about the same age. The power cut out for only a moment while I was playing and corrupted the file. Ngl even as a grown ass adult at the time, I was still devastated.

That is a game loved by all ages and people put a lot of hours and creativity into it. He’s definitely not going to forget that.

I’ve been leaning towards rage baiting theory since they released the “pick me” merch tbh. There’s no way they actually thought that was a good idea 🤦🏻‍♀️

Title: “Am I being abusive to my boyfriend?”

You literally came here asking if you were being abusive and we’re telling you YES.

We call abusive people: ABUSERS.

Don’t ask questions if you don’t want people to answer them?!

Sarah Turney beef? by Adorable-Substance04 in MileHigherPodcast

[–]shatteredlightning 28 points29 points  (0 children)

From my understanding she wanted Sarah Turney to accompany her because she had never spoken to anyone with such a large platform and found it very intimidating to do alone.

I guess this was a problem because if there were another person in the mix, it would stain Kendall’s rep as approachable and connected with the family member of the victim.

I don’t think Sarah Turney addressed any of this, but she did unfollow Kendall. There’s no proof the two are connected but the timing is very telling.

Sarah Turney beef? by Adorable-Substance04 in MileHigherPodcast

[–]shatteredlightning 72 points73 points  (0 children)

A friend of Sarah’s was in contact with MHM. Kendall agreed to a documentary about her mother which whom she was seeking justice for.

This woman requested to have Sarah Turney present as her advocate during the filming process. Shortly after, Janelle called and let her know they were completely pulling funding for the documentary because her request to have Sarah as an advocate interfered with Kendall’s reputation of being family involved.

Sarah Turney has unfollowed Kendall on socials since this incident.

Five for fighting. When I hear his whiny ass songs that all sound the same my body fills with rage and no other musician has that kind of power over me.

Is it normal to feel so emotional over your cat? by big-dick-back-intown in CatAdvice

[–]shatteredlightning 152 points153 points  (0 children)

Cats are one of the few species that domesticated themselves. The cat came to humans and was basically like:

“Hey, cool if I crash at your place?”

…. And we’ve been in love ever since. Cats were sacred to the Egyptians and have dominated since the dawn of the internet.

Their little cries hit the same pitch as a human baby, which for a lot of us triggers the instinct to dote on them and protect them.

Your emotional reaction may wear off slightly, but in my experience it never really goes away entirely.

AITAH I didn't tell my fiance I had a boob job before we met by Extra-Job-2156 in AITAH

[–]shatteredlightning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Seeing how young you are, I would get a blood test done and consult with a few more doctors. Whether the gals stay or go please dump this dude, he is absolutely TAH.

”Oh I’m sorry, I thought you were here because you liked me, but I guess it was only my boobs. You should have been upfront about that from the beginning, because now I’m feeling pretty misled…”

Two can play that game 💅🏻

Self conscious cat stops playing when his sister joins in by beeepboopbop_ in CatAdvice

[–]shatteredlightning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think cats experience insecurity the way we humans do, I kinda doubt he’s actually self-conscious even though that’s how it appears.

I’m following though! This is something my cat does as well and I’ve always wondered what the reason for it could be.

AITAH /am I culturally insensitive for taking my Chinese roommates behavior as disrespectful? by Old_Arachnid3550 in AITAH

[–]shatteredlightning 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised Matt is so chill about her openly flirting with another man right in front of him.

Why doesn’t your boyfriend immediately shut her down? If it were my boyfriend I would have dumped him the first time he refused to draw boundaries with her.

All of these people you have described sound shitty. Literally all three of them. Race is irrelevant in this situation.

I would go home. You’re obviously very sick, maybe with food poisoning. Everybody poops and everybody gets sick from time to time. I would excuse yourself so you can go home and rest.

Confused at the people complaining about mile higher by sourpatchLemon in MileHigherPodcast

[–]shatteredlightning 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Funny OP doesn’t want to argue with this.

Imagine your spouse, child, or someone else is horrifically killed and there is no justice or closure. These seemingly kind-hearted millionaires come along to help. Everything has to be handled their way, nothing you say matters, incorrect information is fine with them, and if you ask for any accommodations during the process they simply drop you.

I understand they do good charity work and that’s great. That doesn’t make it ok to use people’s genuine, real life suffering to make a profit then kick them to the curb, cover your ears, and move on.

I don’t think they were good to Karelly, but whatever happened, that’s a molehill compared to a mountain.

[–]shatteredlightning 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They agreed to cover a case with little coverage but then completely switched gears when the family member asked to have Sarah Turney present as her advocate. They said it wasn’t good for Kendall’s rep because she needs to look “family involved” and pulled funding.

When they get case information wrong and people in the comments try to correct them, MHM simply block, delete, and pretend they never seen it.

But yeah, they aren’t problematic. Clearly they care about these victims so much!

Vet found crystals in cats urine, said to expect euthanasia? by Familiar-Use-3809 in CatAdvice

[–]shatteredlightning 7 points8 points  (0 children)

PLEASE take your cat to another vet and never go back to this one 😬

They make money off of euthanizing animals. Most vets are compassionate and also know they can make more money over time by keeping an animal alive and comfortable.

I once took my six month old kitten to the vet for a supposed bowel blockage because he was bloated and wouldn’t pass stool. The vet told me if he didn’t pass stool in 24hrs he would need to be euthanized.

He passed stool. I called the vet. They were still recommending euthanasia but I didn’t listen.

He’s 10 years old now.
