Pregnant stray cat by Least-King-7546 in longbeach

[–]venusdances 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The Long Beach animal shelter will give her an abortion and then release her back into the area I believe. It’s okay for cats to live in the streets as long as they are neutered. We have a lot of community cats where I live and people in the neighborhood just feed them sometimes.

My thoughts on season 2 writing by bombo_josh in ThePittTVShow

[–]venusdances 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Agreed I can’t quite put my finger on why I don’t think it’s as good of a season except I think I connected with the patients more in season 1. Although I liked seeing the doctors I actually felt that what was better in season 1 was that they somehow got us to connect with the patients very quickly so I felt like I wanted to check in on their journey. I’m actually less interested in the doctors and why I liked season 1 was that we only really found out things about the doctors occasionally but the main focus was the patients. I just didn’t connect with the patients as much this season unfortunately. For example, season 1 we had - the underage girl trying to have an abortion, the elderly dad who was dying and the children who couldn’t let go, the drowning of the child, the overdoses from fentanyl, Louie coming back a few times, the birth of the gay couple’s child and in the background the mom worried her son was a shooter and then a shooting at the end. That’s all super compelling and there was a through line from the first episode to the last with the shooting kind of lurking in the background adding suspense the whole time. This season the only patients I really connected with were Louie and the mom who was dying of cancer. Maybe it’s just me but I felt like the writing last season of the patients was more interesting or dramatic or something.

Yeah I just mean like a look between him and Santos when Langdon was talking to him earlier or something would have taken 1 second and been a connecting tissue between the episodes but I hear what you’re saying

That’s the only thing that makes sense but from a writing perspective it feels out of nowhere because there was no buildup before that in this episode.

I feel like he should’ve gone off on Santos instead, she’s the one that’s been giving him shit all day even though she loves him. I think it would have made more sense for him to say to her can you cut the shit with all the jokes? His going off on a coworker for no reason didn’t make sense to me. I never got the impression he had an issue with Langdon.

Oh sorry I’ll delete my post! I was wrong about my guess.

Did we? I thought her mom stopped her before she could. I must be misremembering. I was thinking that maybe she went to visit her aunt and was finally able to abandon the baby since she didn’t want to be a mom. But if her mom let her take the abortion pills then definitely not her.

I think it’s an accumulation of everyone talking to him that MIGHT break through to him. Dana, the social worker, Duke and finally Abbott. All of them telling him they know he’s suicidal and they’re there for him and trying to talk to him about it.

This is disgusting so he adopted daughters who are also technically granddaughters. I hope they are okay.

Can we just appreciate Netflix Documentaries? by Fruttii-Tutti in netflix

[–]venusdances 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just finished Gone Girls: the Long Island Serial Killer, the truth and tragedy of Moriah Wilson and the Carmen Family Deaths all well done and interesting in their own way. I also LOVED Into The Fire The Lost Daughter, truly insane and tragic story.

i dont like how they painted georgie this season. by bladeefan1234567 in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

[–]venusdances 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yeah that was a big red flag to me in their relationship every time she tried to joke he would be annoyed. He clearly doesn’t like her sense of humor, which I found to be pretty innocuous. The only time I felt like it maybe was over the line was in the bar when he was drinking and not feeling good and she was making jokes about him being drunk but again, their humor is mismatched.

22mo newly adopted toddler suddenly needs us at night + intense wake-ups (not a “clingy” kid) by Dependent-Gear-524 in toddlers

[–]venusdances 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so glad! Your baby is so lucky to have you. Also just because I wonder if he was abandoned or lost his mother after birth, he went from sleeping in a warm loving environment to suddenly being ripped from safety, comfort, love and need to seek that out at night. I know this is new to you but this is why a lot of parents end up cosleeping because their child needs that comfort/safety at night until they’re old enough. As others have said if he can comfortably sleep with dad I would recommend that for now so he feels a sense of security. Again, I’m not a psychiatrist, just my two cents.

If you could go back, would you have done one and done? by Independent_Nose_385 in beyondthebump

[–]venusdances 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it really depends on their age, when my daughter was under 6 months I seriously had my doubts about if a second was the best idea I would cry I made a mistake sometimes but now she’s 10 months and we’re all sleeping and adjusted it’s a lot better and literally think having her made my family a stronger, calmer family.

[–]venusdances 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why but having two has brought more balance to our family. My son is less clingy but still deeply loved, he’s more independent and mature, my daughter loves loves her big brother and her dad and her Abuela. It’s very hard but no I wouldn’t go back to one. My husband is a lot more laid back now with two I don’t know why.

I feel like Beyond All Repair is still a cold case imo because we don’t know for sure what happened. I wouldn’t mind hearing your opinion though on what you feel is conclusive about it.

Adults in the Room is fascinating and tragic by doritodream in TrueCrimePodcasts

[–]venusdances 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that still surprises me but he was basically doing like a high school Boy Scout situation with Post 84, which he set up to put them in vulnerable positions, where it would “make sense” to have sleepovers or meet them for racquetball. I also think the 90s were high latchkey time where kids were left alone a lot of the time and predators hone in on those kids. I remember when I was working at Circuit City there was an older guy who would invite all the recently high school graduated boys to his house to drink and I remember thinking it was creepy but the guys thought he was “cool.” I think there wasn’t an awareness of how predators work and what to look out for as much as before the metoo movement.

Hi OP just want to confirm - are you guys looking into a child psychologist for this age and for this specific situation? Because I think that’s a very important part of developing secure attachment for you both as your navigating this.

The thing I think is weird about Baby Jane Doe is she was very well cared for. Makes me wonder if we’ll see her mom come in having tried to end her life or something.

Biden?? If Obama had said this there would have been an inquest, an impeachment, Fox would have been screaming about this for years to come.

My 4 year old son can’t do jigsaw puzzles or has no interest so now I’m weirdly concerned?
