Oh yeah they're edible. But I buy them in a big box and I immediately recycled the box part of the packaging and they're in a flimsy carton with no outer walls, so securing them in the car will suck 😅
Also no need to apologize! I don't have a frothing hatred for hoarders or anything. It makes no sense to me to resent people for something that affects their quality of life.
In my family's case it just sucked because my parent had access to mental healthcare but didn't take advantage of it, and it affected myself, my siblings, and our pets. I go back and forth on how much I actually blame them, but at the end of the day it's still bad memories and I hate that I keep associating them with my new place.
I have everything moved to my new apartment finally (except the eggs, they're gonna suck to move), but I'm not out of the woods yet. I was raised by a hoarder and having boxes stacked in every corner is making me feel filthy.
I started going back to the gym because I couldn't stand being away any longer. Not sure if that was a good idea because I'm exhausted all the time.
My neighbor who thinks we're friends because he talks about himself all the time and I'm too meek to stop him actually invited himself inside to talk about himself today, and I wasn't butch enough to do anything about it.
So yeah, I don't know. Technically improving, but still bad.
Moving has been hard. I own so much shit. I forgot how crafty I used to be, once upon a time, in a bigger house, with a bigger paycheck. I don't really want to throw out any old projects but it's sad how estranged I feel from that version of me.
My family keeps offering to help but so far they've been here two hours out of the two months this has taken. And by "they" I mean one sibling. It's not their fault, and it's more than I expected, but sometimes I wish they helped me as much as I helped them.
That's reassuring, thank you. I actually have plenty of extra toys because I learned it's slightly cheaper to add extra cat toys to my order and get free shipping whenever I refill my kitty's flea medication
I'd like to, I guess I'm concerned about the logistics. I know you're supposed to keep them separate for a while, which means one cat has to be stuck in a single room while I work out of town. And if they never fully warmed up, I'm afraid it would just be a ton of stress on the other cat if I had to send them back to the shelter.
I'll probably save up some PTO before I try it, so I can be home and make neither of the cats are being neglected during the process.
In my case, it's not exactly like an outline, it's just... I can't describe it because I can't actually focus on it, it's like a cross between a picture and a notion. But somehow, in the lineup, the outline seems like the most accurate level of detail.
Also color is absent for me, don't know about for others.
I don't think there's a lot of research on it, but it's a way to measure aphantasia, the inability to picture something in your mind. I'm a 4 and didn't actually know anything higher existed until I started talking to other artists.
I just meant I wouldn't be able to supervise her. She's an older cat and I can usually corral her, but that prey drive will have her climbing places I can't dream of chasing her.
It's funny, I was ALWAYS taught to say please growing up, but as an adult I only hear it in more formal settings, or from older folks. I think people realized that tone and body language also show that you're trying to be pleasant and not bossy, and dropped the habit of saying it.
I'm sure it's regional, though, and I'm only speaking for one small chunk of the US.
I know three people whose lung capacity seems to be permanently diminished from COVID, and one of them has chronic chest pain now. He was in his 20s when he caught it. I don't know any other common virus that does that.
What I gather from working in retail is that "Mr. Beast" is an incantation that brainwashes children into begging for candy bars they'd normally hate.
