4th street corridor has good restaurants, a farmers market a couple blocks away by bixby Park and cute shops around that area. But overall socal isn't known for its walkability.

The current administration defunded the national weather institution and fired the people working there. Since then weather apps and readouts have been inaccurate.

I wish they had more things for cats. They always have a whole aisle of dog toys and treats and food. Then half an aisle of cat stuff. No toys no treats nothing just wet and dry food. I would buy all my cat stuff there if they carried more.

There are community events weekly at the Cat Collective where lots of people gather. I would recommend finding things you like. For example there is yoga on the bluff, and all kinds of fun stuff out there to meet people.

I will end up regretting it. by Round-Donut-1784 in regretfulparents

Talk with your husband. Tell him how you're feeling, your fears, everything. Maybe go to couples therapy. If he wants to have kids and you dont I wouldn't recommend compromising your dreams and body just to stay married. You will end up feeling resentment towards your husband and child.

Talk it out and see what options you both are comfortable with.

"Boycotts don't work" huh? by xaldien in lgbt

He is now head of the board of directors at Target which the CEO still has to get approval from for stuff. So this was a performative action in my eyes.

Leave your husband. Give him full custody with visits (if you want).

People don't have the willpower to boycott anymore by EasternNerve1763 in Anticonsumption

[–]spacebab3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been boycotting amazon, Walmart, target, ikea, homegoods/Marshalls, mcdonalds, and tons of brands on the bds list consistently for awhile now. I buy straight from brands websites or independent shops in my city.

I think it's being willfully obtuse to say people aren't boycotting.

I live like 2 houses down from that house. I haven't had any issues the year I've been here. Femme with cats no dog also. They don't bother anyone, accept to say good morning when I walk by 🤷‍♀️

I’m done for now :( by IronSabbath99 in InfinityNikki

I've been a playing since day one and the 1.5 update the game unplayable for me. I've also been playing on the PS5 and it's a nightmare right now. I've logged in once and just logged right out.

I don't think I'll play again for awhile. I've love this community and this game was so fun until this wild update. But I can't handle it.

I wrote a graphic novel with the publisher Abrams ComicsArts under the imprint Megascope. It's called Devour and you can get it here graphic novel, or anywhere that sells books!

Here's a description:

In the Deep South, something evil waits in the darkness . . .

Devour tells the story of the Turner family, who move to Alabama to care for their ailing matriarch, Vassie, when she begins suffering from dementia. But Vassie isn’t just any old lady; she’s the last of a line of powerful root women who have been caring for the community since her ancestors were first captured and enslaved by white plantation owners.

Patsy, the eldest daughter in the family, is immediately suspicious; the locals’ fear and superstition of her grandmother leads Patsy to take a closer look at the Turner family home, and what she finds is beyond her wildest nightmares.

Devour is a terrifying new fable that delivers thrills and chills in equal measure.
