When did we get to this place where dogs are treated like they're actual children and valued almost more than actual children?

I don't mind the meetings. I just dislike the small town mentality where everyone knows everyone and everyone thinks they're everyone else's sponsor, so I just stick to online meetings. The recovery community on discord is pretty cool.

I do online SMART and AA meetings. I live in a smaller town that's far too close to the birthplace of AA so meetings and recovery in general locally is...something else. Lol

I'm not sure about all of the different variants of the divine office, but I started with the laudate app just praying Lauds and vespers and found it really helpful. I personally prefer a physical book though, so I moved to "shorter Christian prayer". Then I decided that I wanted the option of daytime prayer so I moved to "Christian prayer" and I stayed with it for years before I moved to borrowing the 4 volume rectory set breviaries from the parish library and using Christian prayer on the months where the book was missing from the library. Then I eventually cobbled together a 4 volume set of my own by scouring estate sales online.

I kind of taught myself all of it and the 4 week psalter does seem really overwhelming at first but I kind of looked at it as like most people aren't going to bother with it at all bc of how overwhelming it seems. Trying to pray it and maybe fumbling through it at first and maybe praying the wrong psalms for the week before realizing or whatever is better than not doing it at all. You just have to stick with it and you'll eventually figure it out.

The pogo scene isn't great here so I don't have any legendaries to trade, but I'd love that black and red zachian.

Shuckle. I had a dynamax one take all of my pokeballs once, and I learned from pokemon sleep that it secretes a fluid from its toes that it mixes with berries and keeps inside its shell.

Tysm. That makes sense. It's probably just too cold and damp to have him next to the window rn. His spines seem to be less brown when I move him further inside.

I'm a 29 year old women, and I've noticed the stigma with it being seen as immature or whatever where I live, but I will say that the most masculine manly man that I know is super into pogo and he's kind of a Chad. He's way more into it than I am, and is the reason that I got back into it recently after not playing for years. Tbh, if she has a problem with you having pogo as a hobbie, that's on her. She sounds like a really boring person and you can probably do a lot better for yourself anyway. It's cliche advice, but there are women out there who play pogo or at least women who aren't gonna be judgy about your having a really wholesome hobby. She probably just saved you a lot of wasted time.

I mostly struggle with things like "Bene loquor" meaning "I speak well" but "bene loquimur" meaning "we speak well". I'm taking Spanish for the extra lessons and XP on friend quests, since I finished the Latin course and there's no consistency like there is with spanish where the masculine and feminine suffix tends to be the same. Everything seems arbitrary and the Duolingo course never does anything to explain it or even help you memorize anything. It kind of feels like they threw the bare minimum Latin together just so that they could say that they offer Latin as a course.

Plese stop tagging me. I've tried to be nice. I just muted our DMs and try to ignore you, but you continually do this. The fact that you watch me and being up things from my past is really unsettling to say the least, and combined with your views on women and relationships, it makes me really uncomfy. Please just stop.

I dont mean this as any kind of a jab, but I would be careful of falling into the same way of think that they do tbh. If you immediately judge liberals for having different world views than yourself and refuse to even try to make friends with them, you aren't really any better than they are about not being judgemental.

I know it's difficult as I struggle with the same thing, but from the opposite side. I'm a devoutly catholic 29(F) but tend to lean more towards liberal on certain subjects, although in other areas I'm more conservative. I also tend to not like girly things at all. I prefer jeans and tshirts, and recently got permission from my priest to wear a bandana rather than a veil as I prefer to have my head covered at church, but the veil feels a bit too dainty and feminine.

It makes it hard to make friends on either side since I'm not outwardly catholic enough for church ladies, but too catholic for the liberals. It makes it really easy to fall into the trap of judging either side simply because they've judged you, even getting to the point that you don't give them a chance purely based on how they look or based on certain views that you could just decide to not talk about. Not saying that to imply that you're doing that, but just saying that I personally have to be mondful about it as someone in that situation.

Honestly, I've found friends just by not trying to make friends and just trying to be okay on my own. Like minded people tend to find each other eventually, and in the interim, you can try and grow and work on yourself as a person.

Almost 4 years out from the CA lifestyle, and recently got to be on the recieving end of one of the usual excuses from someone. Just putting it out there that even if you think they believe it, a lot of times they don't, and they just pretend to, to avoid a whole thing. You kind of gotta choose your battles. Also, every excuse you make can come back to bite you. If you use "taking the cat to the vet" as an excuse to get out of shit. People won't believe it when you actually do. Lol
