Oh my gosh, this is so validating! A few different species of birds will flutter in front of the living room window when the feeders are empty to get my attention. They are smart little things!


I was just gifted a Switch 2 for my birthday, and Bonanza was what I was most looking forward to playing. I’m enjoying it a lot, but so far I’m glad I didn’t spend the money myself.


When I’m making vegetable soup, I usually add some balsamic vinegar, tomato paste, and MSG. The acid and umami make the soup taste more balanced and hearty. I hope it’s helpful!


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.


If I knew how to make everyone empathetic we wouldn’t even need to be discussing this in the first place. What a vapid question.


The same way we trust that it’s really painful for men to get kicked in the junk without having to experience it ourselves.
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.


I don’t know enough about your finances, medical insurance, and/or pain tolerance to answer that question.


I’d probably check the Best By dates referenced in the article and compare them to the date on your package.

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 for this is “trickle truthing”, and it’s a common tactic when someone gets caught doing something terrible.


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.
He’s pretty fantastic in Shrinking, so that’s something.


Hell yeah! I swear, the best eating on any animal is above the shoulders. Cow tongue is also great in curry and other stews.
Thank you! Bubblers were created and patented in Wisconsin, too, so I’m glad we are keeping the name alive.
