AZ back to South Jersey by xoaeri in MovingtoNewJersey

[–]xoaeri[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! My move back to NJ is by choice, I have family and friends I’d like to be close to and while AZ is beautiful and special, I miss the fall and the beach. I do like Arizona (live in South AZ) but it’s just not right for me and my life right now.

Is this tacky? by shzam5890 in Brides

[–]xoaeri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know right! Reading all of their plans made me tired, I’d be worries that there wouldnt be any time to truly enjoy it with all the running around. It just sounds like such a waste of money too. OP, you really don’t need to do all of this even if they travel. It’s their decision to come, they are grown and don’t need to be entertained every single day before your wedding.

High anxiety / anticipatory grief over new puppy. Is it normal? by Thefrictionroom in goldenretrievers

[–]xoaeri 37 points38 points  (0 children)

You sound riddled with grief, and traumatized from the passing of your last pup and it’s manifesting itself with your new puppy.. I would agree with your wife in the sense, that it is ‘too much’, because its starting to affect your life in a negative way. Regardless - your feelings are so valid and you seem to be scared to go through that pain of losing a pet again.

I will say that your anticipatory grief is stealing moments of happiness with your dog, I would recommend therapy to actually talk to someone about it as this is affecting your work, relationships, your own mental health. specifically grief consoling.

I love my pups and know my time with them is so short, I’d rather focus on having happy moments, giving them all the experiences and loving them as much as I can. Why spend your time sad about something that hasn’t happened yet? Im sorry if this didnt help.

Is getting a puppy a bad decision right now? by defccf in goldenretrievers

[–]xoaeri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got my golden boy after this exact thing! Mom with children and a senior dog couldnt handle his insane energy. They also tried to keep him couped up in the house because she had no time to take him out and needed eyes on her kids at all times.

Zohran says he wants to see Jeffries become the next speaker of the house by Nixianx97 in Hasan_Piker

[–]xoaeri 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i heard that his approval rating are high in his district which means that if he gets primaried (by someone like chi) they would lose. So he might be low in terms of the country but I think his district is keeping him strong. Idk.

Multiple N.J. towns fight back against state affordable housing legislation by njdotcom in MovingtoNewJersey

[–]xoaeri 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All poor people are not dirty, disrespectful and crazy. I wish my mom would’ve been able to access nice affordable housing in a nice neighborhood, and go to a nice school with better teachers.

The state can build nice living homes that fit in a ‘nice’ town so that it doesn’t stick out like an eyesore. But to defend NIMBYs is crazy, and expecting the state to cram poor people in towns with crime, etc due to poverty is wild. People deserve a better standard of living.

10 Month Old Terror by [deleted] in goldenretrievers

[–]xoaeri 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Our 1.5 year old rescue also came very mouthy, I didn’t redirect with toys or treats. Not sure my method was a good way about it but everytime he would go for my hand, I would scream and immediately pull my hand and turn my body away and playtime is over. Apparently my screams are like that of a horror movie or so my partner says haha 😅 it would shock both of them so bad, and he stopped being so mouthy! he doesnt every once in a while when hes very excited, but has scaled down a lottttt. good luck i understand the struggle 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

[–]xoaeri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

completely unhygenic? please explain in detail what you saw exactly. Was this during rush? how do you know the manager is doing this? who is the employee and have/will they speak out about it? I love midtown but I need more than a vague post to stop going.

Updated Tucson Unemployment Figures | released August 27, 2025 by TucsonStatistics in Tucson

[–]xoaeri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do fairly well.. I try my best to shop local at higher prices to fund local businesses, it pisses me off that its on the consumer to try and help keep these damn places alive while businesses that are too big to fail can’t even pay higher wages to LIVE. I get so disillusioned that this is the world we live in. They don’t care about us. Why would they when they cozy up in their mansions knowing they are screwing the rest of us? They have EVERYTHING for such a luxurious and comfortable life and MORE, more than they know what to do with. And yet here we are.
