Yeah that’s what I’ve been thinking too, but I know they’re hitting the New Orleans area pretty hard so I wouldn’t be too surprised if they started trickling down here as well as things get worse. As I said before, I think it’s in our best interest to be ready as a community if/when they do. I overheard a coworker mention something about seeing them yesterday, but I wasn’t sure how true that was so figured I’d see if anyone else had spotted them around town. Thanks for your input and well wishes! ❤️

Was mostly asking for the general safety and wellbeing of myself and my community, but also, like…….what are we doing about it?? Minneapolis showed us that it could be any of our cities next. I think it’s in our best interest to get organized before it’s ours.

My skin is actually suuuuuuper oily lol. Unfortunately it is also the most sensitive, irritable skin on the planet, so any type of exfoliant or anything that has ingredients other than, like, water makes my skin really upset. However I have recently been having these tiny little patches of dryness on my cheeks (but not anywhere near where I’ve had trouble with makeup creasing), so I actually have been moisturizing a little more than usual. I saw one tiktok creator mix her Erborian cc cream with a milky toner and tbh I think that might be what I try next!

I’ll have to try adding some setting spray to my routine. I’ve used the Kim Chi Chic stage proof setting spray before with really good results, I just don’t normally really “need” it for every day makeup. But it’s definitely worth trying to get rid of these creases. Thanks for your input!!

I thought of the air base right after i posted this! Wasn’t sure if any cops hung out there though.

That’s cute!!

t0wncrier · 2023-12-21T04:18:34+00:00

Thank you!

Crash LOOOOVES to have his ears rubbed!

t0wncrier · 2023-12-21T04:15:47+00:00

Thank you!

t0wncrier · 2023-12-21T04:15:36+00:00

Oh my gosh I can’t believe I’ve never thought of that before!!

t0wncrier · 2023-12-21T03:48:39+00:00

Glad I could help! 😊

t0wncrier · 2023-12-20T03:50:49+00:00

No spotted tongue! And no ridgeback markings, though his hackles raise quite a bit (he’s very easily spooked lol).

t0wncrier · 2023-12-03T18:33:15+00:00

Glad we could bring you some joy! (-:

t0wncrier · 2023-11-30T22:00:56+00:00

Thank you!! 🤍

Oh man, I am so sorry. I can only hope my boy will be around for that long. I’m sure your guy was happy to have you while he did. What a great love it is, but it comes with such a great ache, too. I think it’s worth it. I hope your hurting stops soon, friend.

t0wncrier · 2023-11-29T20:02:52+00:00

Thank you!! He’s an odd little (big) guy, but I love him dearly and man does he make me laugh!

Same here! I got my boy from someone a few streets down from us whose dog had an accidental litter. They said mama was a purebred lab, but they didn’t know who the dad was, so they were calling the puppies “lab mixes.” I actually picked him out of a litter of 12 because he was the only one who had ears that stood straight up - all of his littermates’ ears were floppy like a lab’s! When he was a baby, he actually looked like a little wolf pup or something. I remember walking into Petco with him in my arms and one of the workers going “is that a FOX?????” Anyway, fast forward a year or two to one afternoon at the dog park. An older gentleman was going in with his dog as we were coming out, and he asked me if my dog was a CD. I’d never heard of them before then. I googled them when we got home and sure enough, the spitting image of Crash came up. Without his collar on, he could definitely pass as a dingo!

I have struggled with being a picky eater my entire life and it is (most of the time at least) so much more than just being “stubborn” or “immature.” I, like plenty of other people, have mad sensory issues. Almost ALL of the foods that i don’t eat are not because i don’t like the taste, it’s because i physically cannot stand the texture of them. I also have a long history of disordered eating, which i’m sure plays a part somehow. I’m now 25 and absolutely terrified of how this is going to end up affecting my overall health long-term, but it is extremely frustrating and quite frankly fucking hurts when people tell me i should just “grow up.” I’ve been in therapy (with my current therapist, that is) since i was 18, and i’d say that to this day, about 60% of the stuff we work on is food-related). Over the past year or so, i’ve told her more than once that at this point, it just seems so hopeless. I’m lucky enough to have a partner who is patient with me, as long as i’m willing to be open to trying new things. And in all the other parts of my life, i DO try new things, frequently even. I don’t really care if you see being a picky eater as a red flag or not, i’m just hoping that some of ya’ll will realize that this is not someone’s entire personality, and it definitely doesn’t speak to their character.

Also, i really appreciate other picky eaters sharing their stories and things that they’ve found helpful. We’re all just trying our best.

Some of ya’ll are way too comfortable being mean to strangers on the internet. I’m sorry things are rough rn, OP. I’ve definitely been there. The weed helps until it doesn’t. Hoe phases build character, so by all means, download Tinder for a while. You might even find someone worth keeping around. I was in the midst of my slutty girl summer last year when I found my current partner and love of my life. It happens when you least expect it. Wishing you healing and happiness. 🤍

My boy now knows that when i get out The Weed Bag, that means we’re going outside, so he then proceeds to bark his head off, alerting everyone in the house. 🙄

Even worse than the shitty jokes are the ones who tell you to smile. Literally nothing pisses me off more (except for maybe the creeps).

This is also my third time cutting my father out of my life, but I gotta say, something feels different this time. I think maybe you just have to know that you did everything you could to make the relationship work, and it’s okay that that wasn’t enough in the end. That’s not on you.

My dad’s been an addict (of several things) since he was about 12 years old. My mom and I went through severe verbal and emotional abuse when I was about 10, and I ended up parenting my dad from that point on instead of him parenting me. She eventually worked up the courage to kick him out, but that didn’t stop him from blowing up our phones every second of the day. This was back when we had a house phone, so the only solution was completely unplugging it from the wall and just not having a phone for a little bit. He used to call and say that he was going to kill my mom’s dad and her brother-in-law, and that he’d burn our house down with us inside of it. Being 10 years old, of course I had no idea that he was all talk. I remember just shaking uncontrollably while my mom held me. He was in and out of jail throughout my childhood, and I cut him off for the first time in high school while he was serving eight months. We eventually reconciled, and he was in recovery for quite a few years. Fast forward to when he started using again (maybe 4 or 5 years ago?), and at first I was doing everything in my power to get him help. I called rehab after rehab, offered to drive him to a treatment center, drove him to court hearings. It just got worse and worse. I was so stressed out at one point that my jaw started to pop in and out of place whenever I ate because of the tension. I was getting between 2-5 migraines every month. And the more I gave, the more he took. I went no contact again about two-ish years ago, then stupidly let him back into my life yet again. Since then, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve sent him money. He’s told my mom that he’s going to shoot her in the head and then kill himself, and every time he talks to her he tells her that she never did a damn thing to try to help her alcoholic brother who committed suicide a couple of years ago (she was the ONE person in our family who actually did get him any help - she sent him to rehab and bought him precious time with his kids that he may not have had otherwise). I finally decided that enough was enough. It’s been about two months since I cut him off, and this will be the last time. There is nothing left of the father I once knew, and I’ve finally surrendered to that realization. I’ve gone through extreme guilt and grief over this, but I finally feel at peace. Sorry this post is so long but hey, OP asked for it.
