If y’all are a dude, I am not sure. If y’all are a lady, have you tried spironalactone each day? It saved me. Androgen-sensitive skin is a nightmare and responds only very temporarily to EVERYTHING else, including Accutane.

A little city in the Canadian prairies! Hanging with them is honestly almost on par with a chillin’ with a litter of puppies - it’s impossible not to feel good.

Lil’ Idiot looks just like my Pancakes. I volunteer at a rescue for baby ‘coons and Pancakes was my ‘coon bae for the summer. He was VERY doughy and liked to make castles out of dog food and grapes. He had huge paws and used to incessantly pat my face and coo while I snuggled him. I miss Pancakes (more than Waffles).

Love the visual of hedge fund managers lurking in a fave parking lot.

I got the Gravid one and I really like it. I couldn’t get it covered as a medically-related expense though without going through a hellish process of having mental health diagnoses formalized. I was going to try and figure out how to make one of my own and it’s pretty easy to get the weighted pellets for a good price…

It depends on what you’re into! I read that the rule of thumb is 1 lb of blanket for every 10lb of person but I really wanted a hefty, smothering blanket so I ordered the heaviest I could and got a 20lb rather than the recommended 15lb. I love the thing but I could easily add another 10lb to it.

Trying not to let your self-consciousness show will do more for how attractive you are than balding could ever take away! My beau has been balding since 25 and I’m all for it - the only turn-off related to his hair is when he bemoans it, which I understand he needs to do and I definitely sympathize.

YES. My biggest “wardrobe staple” nopes are work wear related. I. Hate. Work. Wear.

Buying for reality was the hardest pill for me to swallow once I tightened my purse strings and stopped spending on clothing like a trust-fund kid. I really enjoy fashion but I rarely am comfortable wearing statement pieces because I’m hella introverted and have body image issues, however, I’ve spent thousands on…

I know what you’re getting at and it’s clear that you love the breed - there is nothing wrong with that. Bad owners will make any pet shitty and shitty owners are drawn to some animals with natural dangerous potential, snakes for example. Some pet animals are more prone to taking that shit ownership and running with…

I feel you! I saved up for mine. They’re very very warm but definitely not affordable.

I’m like 26 and Mackage is pretty fashionable, madame!

A lot of things can be fatal in specific circumstances, however, the evidence is clear that certain breeds, including pitbulls, are responsible for serious attacks.

The only thing I’ve had success with is pet-related. It’s super easy to strike up a convo about someone’s furbabies, especially if you have your own.

Hey now! I’m Canadian and those down jackets with fur hoods are the only thing keeping me alive some days. I also think that my butt-warming Mackage one is pretty cute for what it is.

I am dogsitting a chihuahua and I can attest to the annoyance level of the little bugger. He needs to be touching me, whines incessantly, barks at anything outside, and is just generally extremely needy and a total handful. He doesn’t understand any cues either which is exacerbating everything to the point where I get…

I agree with your initial post and literally every point you’ve made down-thread. Why own a pet that has the very real potential to kill? My beau and I are waiting for our first puppy to be whelped and we are feeling the weight of responsibility of having a dog that will be large enough to frighten small children and…

Absolutely not, I even indicated what I would personally do if I were to live in a forest. There are ways to live in forested areas and still respect the natural course of the ecosystem. There should be frequent controlled burns, fire breaks, specific forest-related building codes, etc.

Agreed. Our indigenous population in Canada is basically crossing their arms and giving us a well-deserved “we told you so” look. Having lived in the areas for thousands of years, they know damn well that periodic burnings are necessary and that this shitstorm of hellfire is hugely exacerbated by non-indigenous…

Oh I totally get that and agree. This particular company is Germany, London, and Romania so a bit of a weird mix... I think the decision-makers are in London though.
