The question of how we make empathy universal isn't the vapid question. Yours that I was responding to was.
Either way, if women can manage the hit in the balls empathy, surely you can figure this out, too, without a step-by-step pictorial diagram and someone to hold your hand.
Yeah, no. If you read my post, I was referencing dogs having an emergency (diarrhea, if I need to clarify further) and needing to go out. This isn't an imaginary situation, and every dog owner I know has experienced having to clean up a mess because their well trained dog simply couldn't hold it. It's not a criticism, as anyone with stomach issues that doesn't have access to a bathroom would have an accident, too. Cats rarely have this issue, because they have an indoor bathroom.
I don't know why you took my post as idealizing cats and criticizing dogs, but that's absolutely not the point of what I said.
I'm a cat person who appreciates dogs, and this is spot on. Cats may demand food, but you can wait out a tantrum.
The fear of having to potentially clean up an accidental means I'm up no matter what if the dogs are waking me up. I don't like cleaning up these messes, and the dogs actively look like they feel bad watching me do it. We're all having a bad time.
I'd much rather have a sleepy, half-hearted argument with my cats than worry I'm depriving one of the dogs of going outside if they're having an emergency. Apples to oranges.
There are also free phone apps that generate lots of different ambient sounds. Finding those let me ditch fans for good, and I have my sweet, soothing sleep sounds anywhere I go.
If I'm understanding this correctly, passports are also a valid form of citizenship. Passports are usually held by people who lean left, so this could be another advantage the left has in this insane proposition.
I hope passports will remain good enough. I was born to irresponsible teenagers and was legally adopted by one parent, and none of them gave me a copy of my birth certificate. I'm starting to worry that it would be worth tracking it down so I'll have a copy just in case.
This is all so insane, getting our papers in order in case we need to show them to avoid getting disappeared.
The term "female" has been used to subtly degrade women in misogynistic circles and conversations for a long time. I'm struggling to believe this is a new concept for most people, but in case you're being sincere, you can read more about this here..
There are lots of dogs and cats who crave variety in their diets, too. Like humans, it's a behavioral thing rather than a nutritional necessity. My shepherd will simply stop eating regularly unless I vary her diet. I usually have three or so options I rotate through to keep her interested in eating. Lots of people add toppers and mix-ins when they have dogs like mine, but I find that only increases food rejection, as smart pups learn to hold out until we sweeten the deal enough.
I worked for a pet food manufacturer, and it amazed me what customers would do to try to entice their picky pets to eat. One guy was giving his dog lasagna, and he was shocked that his dog didn't want to eat kibble anymore. Imagine that.
Lengua isn't a fancy name. In the context of tacos, it's the appropriate term. Lengua is Spanish for tongue, and tacos are Mexican. Where they speak Spanish.
It's equivalent to saying chorizo tacos instead of sausage tacos. But go on and enjoy that high horse.
Nah, fuck you for pretending to have the moral high ground in this comment while openly saying you're just in it for free dog food in others. This commenter is absolutely correct in calling you out for trying to abuse a program meant to aid the disabled, as people like you who take unnecessary advantage harm the future availability of these kinds of programs. Especially when pet food assistance programs are a thing.
As someone who's fostered and trained both service dogs and ESAs, this is highly offensive. These designations are meant to help people with disabilities, not those who have financial needs. As others have already pointed out, abuse of the ESA designation has had serious negative impacts on service dog handlers. There are also many people out there with serious need for an ESA, and if others keep abusing this lax system for frivolous reasons, eventually rules are going to be in place that will inevitably hurt those with actual health needs.
If your roommate needs financial assistance feeding their dog, there are social services available to help with this. Many communities offer pet food pantries, and there are national charities available to assist with the financial strain of keeping animals in their homes. I can send a list if that's helpful.
Most dogs I know are wonderful and brighten even strangers' days just by being themselves. That doesn't make it okay to abuse safety nets put in place to help disabled people in order to make their care more affordable, though.
I think you might be referring to salisbury steak, as sirloin is a specific cut of beef. I totally agree, though! It's really easy and delicious to make at home, and anyone who judges you for it that eats burgers is a damn hypocrite.
