What tribe are you?

Even if it does rust accidentally, can’t you just scrape or buff out the rust and then reseal/reseason it again and it’s fine?

Got it 🫡

I had the same thought. Us North Americans are not used to sacrificing ourselves for the betterment of the future generations.

I might be confused by your comment and not understanding it properly so excuse me if I’m just not understanding right.

Are you saying that all the school shooters in America did not actively plan to kill all of those children and/or teenagers?
School shooters took a gun to a school and started open firing on children who were no threat and never even had a chance to grow up and hurt anyone.

This guy planned it out, killing one adult who was responsible for the deaths of a lot of fellow Americans while he got richer and richer from their suffering and deaths.

My mother was a wonderful person, poor, and a boomer. She never had anything handed to her. We need to stop shitting on specific generations (it’s a distraction ) and target our hate towards the class divides between us instead.

You are very right. Looking back my comment was a bit ignorant. I remember learning now it can take a few exposures before someone has an allergic reaction to something, whether it’s an antibiotic or a cat or a fruit etc. It would be horrible to become attached to a pet and then have to give them back or rehome them because of allergies.

No worries, I think a lot of us have these periods in our lives where we neglect stuff like this at times. Just the 19 year old living at home and hoarding dirty dishes seems to hit different when they need to be asked to bring them out and they’re still living with their parents.

Yeah, I can understand that. That’s normal. But a 19 year old eating alone in their room so much, and collecting all of the dishes in the household, so the family has none and has to actively seek them out and ask for them is what’s odd to me.

He’s 19 years old, and you have to ask him to bring his dirty dishes out from his room because he is leaving them all in there?

Most people are allergic to cat saliva, not the hair (some are allergic to the hair too though). If the cat was maintaining herself well, she was likely licking herself a lot, which could have contributed to your allergic reaction. There are sprays/washes you can buy to reduce the affect, and I think maybe even a specialized food (probably very expensive). But, I mean, that’s a lot for effort. If you had the cat for a few weeks and it was unbearable, it’s not worth you suffering. Allergies can be hell, they make you miserable. But in the future if you feel the pull to adopt or get a cat, the stuff I mentioned might help. Or even fostering, you might come upon a cat you get along with well allergy wise and can adopt it once living with it for a while and find a match. But there are other pets which are equally nice, rabbits, rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, chinchillas, dogs, ferrets. Or others alternatives like snakes iguanas tarantulas and so on.

It’s actually easy to tell whether you’ll have a reaction by going to the store or humane society and asking to hold them for 5 to 10 minutes.

I’m allergic to cats, but I developed an immunity to my own for the most part. When brush them I do it outside because that could trigger symptoms if it’s done indoors. but for the most part after I adopt a new cat it settles down after a while. It sucks though in the mean time, I don’t blame anyone for not being able to put up with the exposure period. Also some cats trigger worse symptoms and some don’t! I go to different friend’s homes and their cats don’t make me break out in hives but a a few other friend’s cats cause issues right always, I have to take an antihistamine when I go over.

Simplest answer is: if you are a vegan, do not own a cat. They are obligate carnivores. There is no healthy and humane way around the fact they need to process meat to be healthy. Don’t own a cat if you are vegan and don’t want to feed your pet other animals. If you don’t want to rehome your cat, you will need to live with the fact that you will need to sacrifice another living mammal in order to feed your pet.

Owning a pet while vegan is already kind of hypocritical…

Thanks for taking the time to do that for us

Canada is one of those “rest of the world places”. Officially uses metric but the general population here (unless they are recent immigrants or work in the medical field) will tell you their height in feet and inches, their weight in lbs, they will tell you a recipe using Fahrenheit. Pizza is measured in inches. If you buy food, like deli meat, it is displayed in grams on the scale but a lot of people will ask for a half lb or whatever still. We use km for speed but we still use square footage if you are selling a house. Unless they are boomers or older, we will use Celsius for the weather though. I remember growing up learning metric and it was fine, everything made sense, then when I hit college was forced to learn American imperial for my job field cuz that’s what the American standard was. I hate that I think in inches and feet for a lot of crap now. It’s irritating switching back and forth depending on what you are doing.

Sounds like with that one specific incident it was that chick being shitty at her job. I’m a female and have had female mental health providers treat me like garbage too. It’s not a woman vs man thing. Some people are just shit humans regardless of their sex.

I haven’t had a FB account in years, but a friend has been on it for nearly 2 decades. They said there’s no longer any posts from people on their Friends lists, it’s become nearly all ads/spam as they scroll.

I thought Jon Stewart was jewish

What is weird about their English? Seems fine to me…
