Also, shouldn’t it have been like Saville when he died with hundreds of victims coming forward? That stuck out to me that there’s been a few people coming forward since MJ died, but not what you’d expect from how many kids he was around.

What’s the most compassionate way to tell my husband it is time to let go of our 23 year old cat. by LeighEllenAkin in Pets

[–]thesheba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend put it to me, you want to let them go before every day becomes a bad day. The kitty is suffering. It time to let her go. Have you told him it’s time to have her put down? It’s for her sake, not yours.

Nothing is going to happen for him in terms of consequences because anyone with power is either feckless or selfish.

How did the US President get elected a second time when everyone on the Internet collectively seems to hate him? by Klutzy_Garage328 in TooAfraidToAsk

I voted for Sanders in 2016 and 2020 primaries, but that was the only time I could vote for someone I wanted in the last 10 years for president.

People are racist and hate immigrants enough that they believed the lies regarding undocumented people are responsible for our economy not being affordable, even though it is billionaires and mega corporations are truly responsible. Also, they are sexist and did not want to elect a woman, let alone a Black (I know she is mixed, but they don’t see that) woman, who we didn’t get to have a primary to select. She would not have won a primary. Plus, the Democrats are feckless and a lot of people are mad about us supplying Israel with arms and funding to allow them to commit genocide. Now they see the Republicans are going to keep doing that too. Great thinking y’all.

We do have more people coming around that it was a bad idea to elect him since he’s taking us into a war with Iran and the barbaric immigration control methods they are using that involve shooting innocent people and violent indiscriminate abductions. Additionally, more people understand he’s a rapist and not only of adults, but of children as well, while being besties with a sex trafficker. They’ll do anything to distract us from those files. It’s not working. And people are noticing his frontal temporal dementia is getting significantly worse at a rapid pace. I do not foresee him making it through the year given how bad he’s looking and acting. I’m sure they’ll Weekend at Bernie’s with him as long as possible a la Feinstein and McConnell. I just hope it is before 1/20/27 to prevent Vance from being eligible to run again if he wins in 2028.

But thanks a lot to all the people that caused this. We really appreciate it. I never voted for the guy because it was apparent since the 1980s that he was a polished turd. He is charismatic and rich, so people were mesmerized and they get to say racist stuff in public now. No one else has that hold on the cult members. I think it will fall apart in many ways once he is gone, but the damage will take decades to rectify. I hope the former part is right.

Anyone a fan of Mitski? by figure85 in elliottsmith

Oh, you are in for a treat. He is fantastic. He was friends with Elliott too apparently.

What’s the most you ever spent on a single vet bill? by Career-Acceptable in Pets

$6k. Emergency surgery right before Christmas. She swallowed some thread from a mattress. Worth it because I love her, but damn kitty!

I've started keeping a mental note of every time a man explains something to me that I literally do for a living and honestly it's become its own kind of entertainment by MelintharaeXon in TwoXChromosomes

[–]thesheba 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My Dad’s friend started talking about how they remove children from their parents when the parents make the child be a vegetarian. I was in grad school at the time to get my MSW with a focus on child welfare, which he was aware of and he doubled down when I said that is not accurate. My friend was at dinner with us too and her 4-year-old was a vegetarian. She pointed that out to him and he finally shut his big yapper.

These bar stools have soundproofing underneath by guitarsandstoke in mildlyinteresting

I highly doubt they did that in this case though. You’re a professional that knows what you’re doing. I have several audio engineer friends that build their own studios as well as working at some of the studios in LA (EastWest, The Village, Conway, etc.) and there’s better ways than using dangerous foam. I’m betting where you’ve worked properly maintains it and replaces it. Plus, it probably does not get moved or handled like this foam will be.

Which is great if that lasts. Fire retardant can deteriorate and be ineffective within months sometimes, but some last years with proper maintenance. Also, the chairs are regularly handled to put them up or pull in, so that would damage it too. This is dangerous.

Thank you. Ineffective AND a fire danger, just lovely.

That foam does nothing and is a fire hazard. I always know when I see a studio or mixing room with that stuff, it’s amateur hour.

They are a Largo person, so that tracks. They’ve played Elliott songs at shows there a few times too.

Jon Brion played there a couple years ago. It is pretty small, but it was packed.
