Oh, so I’m def a bee… I don’t know what that means for these signs tho.

It’s the 10th of Stan Rawlinson’s 10 Pet Commandments:

-Stay with me on the ultimate difficult journey. Never say, “I can’t bear to watch” or “Let it happen in my absence”. Everything is easier for me if you are there. Remember, regardless of what you do I will always love you.

What a strange, cruel policy from the vet. When I had to put my cat down, my vet had me hold her in my arms while she administered the shot, and then she left the room so it could be just me and my cat til the end. Since I decided to take her body home to bury on my parents’ property, my vet recommended that I show her to my remaining cat so that we could mourn together. She said he would understand what death meant if he got to see her, but he would be distressed more if she just disappeared.

What a hideous policy for everyone involved, shame on this vet/shelter for so many reasons.

Oh, I thought we were talking about my ex husband

I’m young and ignorant, so I don’t know what I’m talking about and I’d be open to anyone posting any links for me to learn from. But I remember being in middle and high-school 20 years ago, and learning about the UN’s “millennium goals” that they were trying to achieve by 2015. And they were… awesome. Like the real definition of awesome. They were awe-inspiring. And they made me hopeful as a young teen. And I remember when 2015 came and went and they hadn’t even come close to meeting those goals. And I remember thinking, okay, well, they’ll keep trying. But they didn’t keep trying, and in fact I never heard anyone talk about the millennium goals ever again. And then 2016 came, and at least from my American-centric viewpoint, the world has been on a rapid decline since then. And I am honestly so hopeless, like rock bottom hopless, like, I don’t know what the future is gonna be, but i can’t imagine a good one if we stay on this path, and I don’t know what to do, because I’m not a world leader.

I used to have so much respect and admiration for the UN but they’re just as garbage as every other power in the world. This post is a fucking joke. My ex partner is from Saudi. I remember excitedly asking him about his opinion and his families opinion when women were first given permission to drive and he was DISGUSTED. Said “this should have happened ages ago, Saudi is using this as a PR move, why should we be happy that women are just now getting this right?”

Anyway. Sorry for the long response to your sarcastic comment. Have a good day. Xoxo.

Can we bring back “scrub”?

5 Pillars of Islam maybe?

It’s called the scrub mommy because it has a soft side :)

(I didn’t make that up, thats their advertising).

Also it does 2x the work for less money than the scrub daddy costs. I didn’t make that up either, but it’s true, they’re cheaper, and that’s very funny.

Sure, I read your back and forth earlier this morning with that other person, and I agree that if there is even a little room for semantic loopholes, assholes will use it, so it’s better to just be annoyingly specific. At this point in our country’s lifetime, lawmakers should know this, and the crown act should have been so beurocratically definitive of all aspects of hair. But also school officials should be worried about teaching all kids, not this dumb bullshit. :(

xx hope your day is nice and you’re having a good hair day

I’m a white girl. My hairstyle is “long”. It’s my entire personality.

What they are doing to this young man is grotesque, but I’m not at all surprised the superintendent is being so petty. He’s nothing more than an overgrown racist high school bully.

So interesting. I always thought the bakers dozen came from the fact that tue baker would make 13 so they had one for themselves

My mother was the abuser in my home. She abused me and my father. That fact doesn’t prevent me from knowing that men are statistically more likely to be the aggressor. I don’t know what I’m trying to say with this comment. Life is scary and hard enough. May we all only share and receive kindness.

Xx love you.

I would subscribe and contribute to this community for sure. So often I see amazing things and don’t have my phone to capture it, and it would be a cool place to share some of those things, both serious and silly ♡

This is a cool new vocabulary word, thank you. Would you consider the aura some people get before migraines to fit this definition?

I used to babysit a little girl who, if she saw someone in a skirt or dress, would run up to them and say, “Hey! Hey! Um. Does your dress spin?” And of course, even strangers knew the only correct response was to perform the most elaborate twirl and make that dress spin. Now, over a decade later, when I’m shopping for dresses, I always give them a test spin to make sure they’re wooshy enough.

Thank you for reminding me of that memory this morning, it sparked joy :)

I dont have Twitter or children, but I know some school districts exclusively use Twitter to announce school closings or delays from weather. To play devil’s advocate towards myself, parents could just listen to the radio or watch their local news, both of which usually/used to have school closings listed.

I don’t have an opinion abt this, I just have friends that are still on Twitter because they follow their kid’s schools.

I just learned this the hard way. I just got laid off and rejected the severance check because in order to get it, we had to sign a thing that said we waived our right to ever sue them for anything

Quack

It was very funny, I like this a lot, thank you.

I pay for a subscription to Scribd, i think its like $12 or $14 USD/month. I started using it after I heard an ad on Levar Burton’s short story podcast, “Levar Burton Reads”. His recommendation sold me because he’s a genuine advocate for literacy. I don’t THINK it’s Amazon affiliated, I try not to use Amazon products and services, but it’s getting harder all the time to avoid them. It has slightly less of a selection than audible, but I find many great things on there. It doesn’t have tokens or whatever the audible bullshit is, you can just listen to whatever you want whenever you want. There’s no ads, but it does make recommendations and suggestions, I’m sure those are some kind of sponsored. When I signed up, it also automatically signed me up for a free service called farfaria, or something like that, which is a children’s audio book service. I had no interest in that, but my mother, who is a nanny, really enjoys it. I really really like it, but there are some titles (can’t think of them off the top of my head, but mostly big name and brand new stuff) that aren’t on there that I do feel like I miss out on.
