Do you ever feel a brief and random sense of panic over not having physical photo albums anymore?

My entire photographic life, dating back to 2011, is only on Google Photos and the millennial in me sometimes get spooked out by that choice. None of it's permanent. But the thought of choosing among thousands of photos worthy enough for physical existence is so overwhelming.

Growing up, everyone I knew used to have several albums, stacked under the TV set; bulky time machines that will last longer than any online server. Now we only go the photo place for passport pictures. My last physical photo is me from my 2013 highschool graduation. And when I realize this, suddenly I'm like "...I need a Polaroid camera NOW".

Hey you know you can click their profile and see a Canadian flag in bio, right?

First thing you see clicking onto their profile is "📍London, ON 🇨🇦"

OP must get this alot because I found an older reel where they address it and state that in Canada, the AODA (Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act) applies to them, not ADA (American Disabilities Act). The former has a different definition of service animal, focusing on an animals function rather than species.

OP has BPD and OCD causing them to aggressively shake in public and the video shows the cat alerting them by pawing at their pant.

I just wanna thank this sub for putting me onto FF Speed stick

I would never have even noticed this on the shelf if not for someone posting their FF collection and including this.

My armpits are so sensitive that I've tried dozens of deodorants that'd give me a bad reaction within days. But I've being been using this for a month now with no irritation, not sticky, dries clear and actually holds up in this miserably hot Caribbean summer.

I want a refund! BOTH Sims had fertility treatment and only had one baby.

I've been playing since 2020 and didn't even know one baby was possible unless you only had room for one more in your household.

I feel robbed! Look at me setting up a nursery for twins but willing to accept triplets. To make matters worse, the daddy is dead!

This is the opposite of the time I just wanted one kid to play an only child family and ended up with my first set of natural twins.

I was so confident they'd be multiples that I saved after he died. 😩 Anyways, let's hope the baby not ugly.

After returning from a break, my biggest shock was the 3 limit cap on free spells. When did this happen?

As a spell hoarder I am devastated! I turn my back for a little 2 years and you guys let Jenova cap the free spells? How could you?

How am I supposed to be a spell vet that dresses up moths now?

EDIT: You gotta believe me. Free event spells would reset weekly. In honour of "Adopt A Moth" August, I urge Vets to tell your moths about what sky was like in your own moth days. We're losing scriptures. I left spell boxes saying "Available in 6 days" and returned to "Available in [150+] days".

My holy grail deep conditioner only comes in this annoying packet. To those who also love it, what full sized alternatives have you tried that are just as good?

I've been using this every other week or every 2 weeks for the past ten months. When I tell you I got ZERO split ends and never had a trim in that time?

But a single package is overpriced in my country and barely has enough for my thick hair so I'm looking for something comparable that comes in a big bottle/tub.

I've been getting intruders (or becoming the intruder) all day!

This has actually been going on for the past couple days but it was really bad today. Every time I entered my nest, either some stranger would pop up from nowhere, or my nest would vanish and get replaced with someone else's.

This person in the second slide totally ignored me and started using my stuff while another spammed the shrug emote. It's kinda hilarious how invasive this genuinely felt. Especially when one slept in my bed and touched my plushies. Just get out of here! 😭

At one point my nest was totally empty, same thing happened to a friend, but for much longer.

Who else has been having nest invasions?

At first, I thought this was someone using a tiny spell 😂 I had no idea we had a figurine prop.

I missed Nesting and didn't care much since it wasn't my kinda season but they get their 10s for this one. So cute, it makes me wish I was there.

This was the player behind me. It's pretty neat that you can see someone's outfit without lighting them. And that complete strangers can instantly be your clones.

I didn't try it on though, how long does the outfit last?

How much more space is gained with every space upgrade?

I can't find anything that says how many extra items can be placed with each upgrade. I bought the 25 candle upgrade and it barely felt like anything was added, .That shouldn't even count as an expansion.

Are the other two upgrades just as meager? Please don't tell me I'd be paying 100 AC for 5 more props of space.

Who else jokingly refers to tents as a bus?

Like "it's almost reset, let's take the bus" or "the bus is taking forever to arrive" when you're waiting for them to appear. And typical spots for tents are bus stops.

Also, shout-out to Che's tents specifically. It really felt like taking public transportation when all these people hopped on with me.

Are there other outdoor friendly cat subs that focus on positive content?

I just want somewhere to be able to post my cats being outdoors and enjoying life, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth to have such posts sandwiched in between "my cat is lost/missing/ran over/eating the wildlife/got attacked" ones.

No shade to those people, but outdoor cat ownership gets enough attacks on the internet, and the one place it's celebrated has a bunch of posts pushing the scenarios that's always getting thrown in outdoor-owners faces to shame/guilt us. This sub is starting to look like an "I told you so" source for arguements.

But I'm not pushing for change, I just want an alternative.

I believe Aviary's shrinking is an attempt at converting Old Home users, once and for all.

And I'm not going anywhere! They wanna take Old Home, they gotta go through me! 😭😂

When Aviary came along and TGC wasted no time in neglecting and downgrading Home (after swearing they wouldn't), only to fix it due to backlash, I've been side-eyeing them ever since. And that kinda turned me into a Home loyalist. This appeasing of older players always felt temporary. Like they were just cooking up a plan to convince that last stubborn bunch. That way, they could finally bin Home with minimal protest. 

Them previously removing the spell boat, removing quests, leaving Home in winter, ignoring crazy glitches during events, removing home-events? These deliberate actions showed us that they truly don't want to keep supporting Home. They want it gone. Even now, they keep it very dead, and do the bare minimum. For example, there was no good reason to move Days of Fortune's wax Dragon from Home and put it in Valley's ice rink. I'd be shocked if the beach, sandcastles and wax seashells return this summer. 

The people arguing that Aviary shouldn't change because Home serves the smaller purpose, aren't seeing the bigger picture. Ask yourself, why does Aviary have a massive grand entrance in the middle of Home, but there's no reverse. Many new players don't even know Home exists! 

Why they want to stop supporting it so bad? I have no idea. What's the harm in equally maintaining both and genuinely updating Home as a smaller alternative, then keeping Aviary large and open? Instead they're trying to make Aviary be two different things at once.

Kitten's toe lost hair and its bean has been drying out

Poster Age: Adult

Country: Dominica/Caribbean

Vet info: The vet didn't seem too worried when I spoke on the phone but told me to come in Tuesday morning.

Main Issue: Progressive crusting of the toe bean

Cat Age: approx. 10-11weeks?

Cat Sex + neuter info: unspayed female, Financial situation: can afford vet care

I've had this kitten for about a week. Someone randomly dropped her off at the pet store and I offered to take her in. At first her toe was normal, except for some tiny patch of dryness at the very tip. Fast forward 4? days, the hair fell off the tip and the dryness has been slowly spreading over the toe bean each day. It's not litter or any substance, the actual skin is turning white and peeling off.

Fortunately, she's behaving and walking normally and doesn't seem to notice the toe or feel any pain when I handle it.

Tell me there's a way to cancel an activated spirit and I just haven't realized this whole time.

Otherwise, I can't believe this *still* isn't a thing yet. I can ignore alot but nothing fills my soul with more irritation than being dragged into someone's spirit chase, having my perspective forcefully changed and then having to stop my CR and go home in order to get rid of it.

Even worse is needing to get a *different* spirit for dailies and now I can't because some moth is taking 40 days and nights to finish a spirit that got in my way.
