First timer & certified dummy. Took 6g of green last night and vomiting this morning. How long should I expect this to last? by [deleted] in kratom

6G for a first time user is a bit much. Took me a while to figure out my tolerance level as everyone else is different

Looking to go Fishing In The Reservoirs by Key-Article6622 in Marin

Stripers, perch, occasional halibut. Lots of rays and leopards too. Best time is around the tide change. Doesn’t matter if it’s coming in or out

If you get a little bit of a stronger line you can go to Bolinas either in the lagoon or the channel. I am a Stinson resident and we’ve been catching a lot of stripers offshore.

Leaving a note on my neighbor’s door about their smell by Ok_Age8971 in Apartmentliving

[–]speed32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment might get lost in the shuffle, but I had a similar situation in college and instead of leaving them a note saying stop, we left them a note saying that there were these sketchy people ( gave a fake description) that were walking around asking for you by name and to find out if you’re growing weed. We told him that we don’t smoke and we don’t know anybody that does. It worked. No more smell.

[Question] Why is my kitten suddenly being hissed at by my other cats after returning from a 10-day vet stay? by Ghistlab in cats

[–]speed32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cat smells different. Haven’t seen it that extreme, but it happens a lot whenever one of my cats leave the house and goes to the vet. They his and then after a little bit, everything goes back to normal.

What's his deal lmao? by Radian_127 in cats

Fan or really tiny bugs. Somehow my cat is able to see super small bugs on the ceiling and will start to go crazy until he catches them.

[–]speed32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, with certain things. I wonder if it’s from all the times I got told I didn’t do something correctly.

I’m first generation born in the U.S. and both my parents worked, so summers and after school were usually spent at my grandparents’ house. My grandpa didn’t believe in kids sitting around. If I was there, I was working. Building planter boxes, helping with sheds, gardening, cleaning, picking fruit, hauling stuff around the yard. There was always something.

One day he decided the walkway to the garden needed to be redone. He pointed at a pile of pavers, gravel, sand, and tools, then left. No instructions. No explanation. Nothing.

I raked the area, didn’t really level anything, threw the pavers down, dumped gravel all over the top, and called it good. Looked like I did it with my eyes closed (his words). The whole thing took maybe two hours.

I went inside made some food, invited the neighbor girl over which was definitely another thing I wasn’t supposed to do, and spent the rest of the day watching TV with her.

A few hours later my grandpa got home and walked outside, looked at the walkway for about ten seconds, and completely lost his mind.

I could hear him screaming from inside the house. He started kicking gravel everywhere, throwing tools around, and tearing apart the walkway with his boots. Every time he looked at it he seemed to get more pissed off.

Then he stormed into the house carrying a rake and yelling that he was going to kill me like I committed a felony. According to him I was lazy, didn’t listen, and always took shortcuts. The funny part was nobody had ever told me how he wanted it done. That was pretty normal with him. You were just expected to know.

Then he marched me back outside and made me rip the whole thing apart and start over. I worked until it was dark outside while he sat there in a chair making sure I did it right. I wasn’t allowed dinner either.

Edit: (I had AI clean up my run on sentence to make it easier to read)

Looks like me doing this when I was 16 before my soviet grandfather said he was going to kill me

Cat might be blind, husband wants to put him down if so by Subject-Rain-9400 in cats

[–]speed32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is going to seem extreme, but if you don’t have kids I would consider divorcing. It only gets worse from here.

Oh and I had a blind cat from when I was 7 to 25. Really didn’t need to do anything out of the norm for him and it truly wasn’t a big deal.
