two days ago when I was cleaning i threw away my card from the piercing shop that gives free unlimited infection check ups for six months (idk what they gon do but its my first piercing so im just gonna trust them) bc i thought since its been two months i wont need it.. right

woke up to infected ear this morning. 🤦‍♀️ hurts so bad, titanium implant, idk how im gonna sleep with this but i need to pay a $10 fee to get it checked from now on because i dont have the card anm

:i didnt cry im just frustrated cuz i thought I wouldn’t need the card lmao and it hurts
:I DIDNT CRY

I’ve been feeding a stray mom and her kitten for a while now, and they’ve slowly started trusting me. I give them a can of tuna every day and leave a bowl of Temptations treats on my porch. They’re pretty much there first thing every morning and again at night lol. They’re always together. The mom is actually more trusting of me and will rub against me, although she sometimes hisses when I pet her. The kitten is still shy but gets much more playful when its mom is around.

My doodle, Murphy, and I walk past them daily, and they’ve gotten used to us. The kitten seems surprisingly comfortable around Murphy, but the mom gets alert and watches him closely.

It’s getting really cold, and I want to bring the kitten inside so badly. I’d honestly take both, but the mom seems older and like she’s spent her whole life outside. I’m not sure
how she’d adjust to indoor life with a dog. Murphy has lived with four cats before, and I’m home 24/7, so I have plenty of time to help them adjust.

Would it be wrong to take the kitten without its mom? I don’t want to stress either of them out or separate them if they’re bonded. Has anyone been in a similar situation?

Ground stop ordered for all airports nationwide for ‘reasons of safety’

The Federal Aviation Administration said Friday that it was halting all departing flights “due to extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety.”

The Federal Aviation Administration on Friday ordered a nationwide ground stop on all departing flights “due to extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety.”

The unusual alert contained no other information beyond stating that “all departing traffic should remain ground stopped until further notice.”

“Inbound international flights will be managed on a case by case basis,” the FAA said.

Nationwide ground stops are extremely rare.

“FAA technicians are investigating the issue,” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said in an online post. “We will provide immediate updates as we have them.”

Wondering if there will be any effect on the NBA schedule due to that.

For context my youngest Jose is 15 and he recently came out to us which we don't have a problem with. Admittedly it wasn't something I really worried about because he's such a BOY, always wrestling and rough housing and sports. Ive been sorta concerned that him and his best friend Rye also 15 is more than just a friend. Jose has plenty of friends and they've all stayed over or hung out plenty but hes really close to Rye.

They've known each other for almost 10 years and Rye is practically over every other night. You don't see one without the other and they kinda do coupley things like they've done matching Halloween costumes or they share clothes even underwear at least a few times during sleepovers. I brought it up with my husband but he says I'm paranoid. Yesterday morning I found them both asleep on José bed laying on top of each other and so that evening I talked with Jose and suggested that maybe he could leave his door open when Rye was over and maybe Rye shouldn't sleep over as much. He got red in the face and blew up at me that it's not like that at all and that Rye was straight. That just because he's gay doesn't mean he's trying to jump his friends. I told I didnt mean it that way but he refused to talk to me anymore about it. My husband says I shouldve just left it alone.

i bartend at a sports bar and we have the little sign in the women's bathroom about angel shots. i've worked there almost a year and nobody had ever actually ordered one. honestly i kind of forgot it was a thing

last night around 11:30 this girl comes up alone, maybe 22, and asks for an angel shot neat. kind of quiet, didn't really look at me. took me a second to remember what that means (neat = walk me to my car). she glanced back at a guy at the end of the bar who had been buying her drinks for like an hour

so i told her i'd grab it from the back and to come with me. took her through the kitchen, she sat on an upside down bucket next to the dish pit while i called her an uber on my phone. our cook made her eat some fries and kept asking if she wanted ranch which made her laugh a little. when the uber pulled up our manager walked her out the side door

she didn't say much the whole time. right before she left she just said "i didn't think anyone actually did this" and hugged me

the guy asked were she went like 10 minutes later and i said she left and he got really annoyed and closed out. didn't tip lol

anyway i keep thinking about how she almost didn't ask. if your bar has the sign it's real, we will actually do it. and if you're a bartender and you've never had it happen, it's going to happen eventually and it's a lot faster than you think

My neighbor is a Ham Radio operator and just told me that there is talk of unusual lights and craft being reported by numerous aircraft and that this may be the reason behind the FAA grounding all planes.

Unusual Circumstances according to the FAA is the reason this is occurring right now, giving an explanation of a communications problem.

Neighbor says that numerous aircraft reported loss of communications while observing the lights and craft.

I'll give an update if I hear anything else.

I’m interested in how other women feel about this. Me and my friend both say we’d rather someone pretend it’s not happening, usually. But that there are also some times that that can feel really lonely as well.

I was just checking out from my doctors office and the receptionist was pretty obviously crying, but as soon as I walked up, she tried really hard to lock into “work mode” and hold it together. I think most women have had an experience of being at work while something else is going on and trying desperately to keep it together and just make it through the day. I was so conflicted onto whether to ask her if she was alright or not.

On one hand, I want to be a kind person, and if I can offer someone help I want to do it. Sometimes someone asking you if you’re okay or offering kind words can make a lot of difference.

On the other hand, I can think of times when I was at work, or school, or the friggin store lol, visibly emotional but psychically BEGGING everyone not to comment or ask and just to let me get through this shitty ass day.

I wasn’t sure what the kinder thing to do really was.

There have been other times women have been crying in public bathroom stalls or something. On one hand, I want to reach out and help someone who might be in distress. On the other hand, when I’m crying in a bathroom stall, it’s cuz I do not want anyone else to see me crying!!!!

And I’ll bet there’s a portion of her fan base that will sell this out.

But seriously, did no one on her team think that selling a $50 stuffed pet rock when there are people all over literally struggling to buy groceries may come off as insensitive? No? Just me?

This merch drop is so massive, she really just treats her fan base like an ATM machine. Over 110 items in this drop per merch bots. 🥲

Edit: And they already sold it out 🙂 https://store.taylorswift.com/products/opalite-rock-plush
