Gotta start somewhere.

I have to give credit where credit is due: kudos to the influencer for removing their post, and to Anik for taking a face-to-face call and have an honest discussion. Even more kudos for doing a complete about face. It takes extreme courage – especially in this day and age – to admit you’re wrong and/or change your mind.

It’s a Pandora’s box. You don’t put that shit back in the box. You just learn to live with it.

I’m genuinely surprised that corporations haven’t started sponsoring defendants through watermarking their company logos on legal briefings.

For me “it’s complicated”. I live with passive suicidal ideation on a daily basis. Some days are better than others, but generally speaking I don’t want to actually kill myself. However, the idea of being dead does not bother me as it ought other people.

That being said, I do stick around especially for my two sons. I could not bring myself to not be a part of their lives; especially right now as they are 12 and 10. I don’t want to rob them of their father, and I do want to see them through to when they have a life of their own and have their own family (whatever that may look like for them).

As for meaning in life: ultimately everything we do is only for the living. When I die, my life only matters to the people whom I was closest (my kids). Beyond that, who cares right? I have no delusions that I’ll be remembered by anyone else.

But I do have other things I’d like to achieve: find another love of my life, travel the world more, complete as much of my bucket list as possible (e.g. skydiving, bungee jumping, scuba diving, etc).

I’ve always been a “late bloomer”, and if there’s one thing I learned along the way is that there is no specific timetable for living life. It’s your life, and you do things how you want; fuck those Jones’.

Also, congrats! Being a dad has got to be the best thing ever (albeit frustrating at times 😂). You’re gonna love it!! Get yourself a copy of The Happiest Baby on the Block, and start practicing your swaddling. It’ll save both your sanity later.

and a thousand other exception

“ie” vs “ei” are my kryptonite. e.g. receive, sieve.

I haven’t always had this habit, but I brush my teeth twice a day and floss before bed.

Boil tea and using that to cook the noodles. Poach one or two eggs with the noodles. Salt and pepper to taste.

Meant to be or not, it’s still weaponized.

Isn’t this what the DMCA is for?

I’m sure there is a newer version available; probably an Amazon off-brand even.

I did try that last year, but it didn’t help. I even went so far as getting CBD dog treats, but after the first one it was fairly useless.

I’d go so far as to say she is very stubborn. 🤣

If someone was actively breaking into my house and you offered me a cookie, I’d probably refuse the cookie.

I have to admit that this caught me off caused and I LOL’d a lot. But you’re absolutely spot on.

Shelf stable treats are the challenge. She loves that Kraft knock-off cheese, but that won’t work long-term.

And for the rest of the advice, thank you!

PS. I love your username. 😁

Thank you! I’m guilty of attempting to console her when she’s upset. I will try your suggestions out. And yes, she is totally worth it. ❤️

Thanks! What kind of trust exercises would you recommend that have worked for you?

Got a non YouTube version?

Redundant much? _😉
