Your comment is actually very reminiscent of Reddit.

I thought getting a second dog would keep the first entertained so he was following me around, dependent on me 100% of the day.

Now, I just have two dogs that want to watch me pee. -_-

Love them both though! Don’t regret it.

I came here to say this! I don’t have cats, but my dogs know other people’s names even though I never taught them those names directly!

Animals are smarter than humans realize.

At that age he carried around a stuffed cow and absolutely loved The Wizard of Oz. Our dad loved musicals as much as martial arts movies. We were blessed to have supportive families. He’s 22 now. I saw him last weekend. He was excited to be babysitting his gf’s pet snake. He’s a good kid.

My youngest brother came home from daycare everyday talking about how “Jason is sad. Jason was crying”. This went on for several weeks.

Finally we asked the daycare if Jason was okay. Jason was only there for one day.

I wish I had received a realistic expectation when I went. Aside from vomiting in the parking lot after, I should have found someone to drive me. I had a very very hard time getting home and I shouldn’t have driven at all. I’m lucky I didn’t cause an accident.

Happy to help! The industry I work in is fairly small in number but we handle a huge portion of commercial loans.

It’s just not one of those things most people know unless you are directly impacted by it. It’s not like Residential Mortgages as much as you’d think.

EDIT: Also, it is BS. You’re right.

Some of the answers you already received are partially correct, but I work in Commercial Real Estate and I’d wager it’s because when a large tenant stops operating at a location, it causes a trigger on the loan that has repercussions due the property owner. Often, they lose access to manage their own rents.

This happens even if the tenant is still paying rent. It’s because a vacant tenant, especially a large one, loses business for the surrounding business.

Example: A grocery store in a strip mall closes down for repairs. Even if they are still occupying the space, it would cause a trigger. Lots of the other spaces in the strip mall are more valuable with traffic from the grocery store shoppers.

TLDR, they don’t want a loan violation that will cost them.

In MO. Voted on it last year. The ballot was intentionally worded to be misleading.

It said each person can only cast one vote. Making it sound like it was to prevent people from voting twice even though that person as already not allowed.

So dumb.

I’m sorry that happened to you.

What did they do when you passed out?

I thought I was going to pass out on the drive home. I should not have driven home. I didn’t make proper transportation arrangements because I didn’t know what to realistically expect. I have no idea how I got home.

My doctor told me to take a couple ibuprofens before. Did the thing. Made me lie there for a few minutes then set me loose.

I vomited in the parking lot afterwards.

I have some hexbear communities turned off in my feed, but I have subscribed to some also. Lemmy is growing but it’s still a small community. Sometimes, I want to see posts on a niche topic and I’ll take what I can get.

Reminds me of my YouTube recommendations. How are these companies so dumb?

I was promised dogs. I do not see dogs. These were the only videos in that suggestion.

I had a coworker say cisgender was an offensive word. She is typically very openminded and supportive of the LGBTQ+ community so I was surprised.

Turns out she didn’t know what it meant. She just heard people use it with disdain and assumed it was offensive.

I do not understand other people.

What is considered high? I have an above average intelligence, but I also have ADHD.

I have a fantastic memory, but I can’t always choose what I remember. I’m great at facts and trivia but I can’t remember things that are actually important in my life.

I didn’t have to study in school. I could glance over the material minutes before a test and pass without trying. Then, I got to college and I didn’t know how to study as I’d never done that before. I failed out.

Dollar Shave Club makes 6 blade razors in the US. I just saw them at the grocery store yesterday.

I’m open to try it! I also have ADHD and remembering to take my medication is a challenge for me too.

Is it something that you have to take everyday to be effective or can you just take it as needed? I hate taking sleep aids like ZzzQuil.

I frequently have trouble sleeping. After a few days of little to no quality sleep, I become unable to fall asleep.

The best way I’ve been able to describe it like a car battery. It helps start the car and when the car drives it keeps the battery charged. But if the battery gets too low it can’t start the car to recharge.

It’s like the part of my brain that tells my body to go into sleep mode hasn’t been charged by getting sleep. I’m so tired I can’t think and I feel absolutely awful, but the sleep doesn’t come.

I have to take a sleep aid when that happens.

This is just anecdotal, but if it works like that for the people who died, it makes sense to me.

Aliens in my favorite movie of all time too. (⌐■_■)
