Just… hug

@Testament I’m so sorry. Losing a pet sucks. No matter what the circumstances, it fucking sucks.
You gave him a good life and you did right by him.
-
@Testament I’m so sorry, man.
-
@Testament Thank you for doing what you could to ease Fuzz’s suffering, and for being there at the end. I’m sorry it hurt so much to do.
-
@Testament I’m so sorry. Remember to feel all your feels and they are very very very valid.
-
Fucking people.
This made for a nice relaxing day.
Not.

@Testament The lungs filling with fluid is what did my Fussy-cat in on April 1, 2022. I did the same procedure you did to give her a fighting chance, but also had to put her down on the same day, to do the humane thing. I feel for you and am so sorry for your loss. She’s in my daily routine to tell my dogs goodbye when I leave for work, telling her, my husband, and my dog who all passed that I love them all and miss them all very much.

Struggling with significant depression rn. I’m doing ok juggling most things I think. But a bit slower on the uptake/not very much energy right now. At some point maybe I will be less burnt out by life, but man it is really hard. I know I have lots of people right here with me tho.
-
@mietze you’re definitely not alone. I’m sorry for your struggle, for what it’s worth.

Earlier this year they told us to start keeping every door shut and locked at all times. It is a pain in the ass but we have been doing it.
Seeing the Nashville shooter just go right through the locked doors just makes my heart ache and feel like every time I let a kid go to the bathroom it is a tiny bit like I’m sending them out with a 'good luck, don’t die. The fact that it was on the heels of a shooting here in Denver just doubles the feelings.
I’m not quitting teaching just… down.

CW: bullshit animal laws, and threats of animal cruelty
We have been in the new house for about a week. A 90yr old waste of human DNA has already called the cops because our dogs were barking (during the day, we bring them in at night). It has escalated quickly.
|He threatened to hurt our dogs tonight because the cops told them there’s no ordinance against dogs barking during the day.
So we called the cops back. And the cop told us that he’ll make sure the neighbor doesn’t come onto our property but we have to get rid of two of our dogs because there’s a city ordinance against pit bulls. We have a blue nose pit and a GSD/Pit that are bonded.
The ordinance requires that if they are outside they have a 4ft or shorter leashed and a muzzle. And cannot at any time be off leash. And they must be contained in such a way they can never get out on their own.
If we are caught violating the ordinance it is a 30 day sentence for the person deemed responsible. Which would be either my spouse or mother in law as they are legally the home owners.|
I really want to scream, but I have laryngitis on top of this so I’m not allowed to sing or talk loudly or anything…

The ACTUAL fuck.
I’m so sorry. -
Someone called in to a bunch of schools in northern Utah today and claimed that an active shooter was firing at students. It was a hoax.
I don’t fucking understand who could possibly do something like that. I am so angry about it I am literally shaking. My son was home from school today but even just the possibility of him being so scared and traumatized over some fuckhead’s sick prank is unbelievable.
-
@Wizz Pennsylvania too. Rage.
-
Now I’m sitting here wondering if school shootings are so common that school policies include how many snow days to cut from the calendar to make up for days lost to shootings and prank shooter alerts; and I’m getting very depressed as I think about it.
-
@GF The answer is no, we don’t account for them.
Welcome to the club other states. So (sarcastic) glad to be a pioneer in gun violence in schools.

Tfw pneumonia recovery might be hitting the stomach flu speedbump. fml

@mietze God I’m sorry. I’m recovering from pneumonia too and I’m mostly just tired as fuck. Deep sympathies.
