My dog answers to "Homo" now.

My boyfriend and I have a bunch of pets. We're both fat, jolly, Slavic dudes so we call each other dumb shit. Some slurs that I don't need to name and we call the pets funny stuff too. Just for shits and giggles of course. We say those affectionately. We live in a cabin in the countryside so I walk the dog once or twice a day and we let him out into the yard a couple of times a day too. Before bed, my bf opens the door and says "come on, homo!" and the dog just immediately jumps and goes out. It's hilarious! His name is Haru and of course he answers to it , as well as to other things like "Fluffy", "my boy", "pupper" , "doggo" and many more. But "Homo" takes the cake. PS: Haru is a very smart dog. I've trained him very well, he knows dozens of commands and tricks and he also knows the names of all the cats, relatives and even some friends. So of course he knows all his own names too.

И какъв беше смисълът от новите рестрикции?

От днес не мога да виждам съдържание в Редит, което е предназначено за над 18, освен ако не си дам личната карта. (За контекст - на 35 съм, акаунтът ми е на бая години.) Сега, от една страна не ползвам сайта за свалки, не ми трябва да гледам порно тук. От друга обаче, доста неща са NSFW, дори да не са свързани със секс, а именно - медицински събове, ветеринарни събове (което е пряко свързано с работата ми) и др. Сега какво?! Не мога да участвам в тях? Защо?

На теория знам как се стигна до тук. Но на практика не виждам смисъла!! Окей, съгласен съм, че трябва да предпазим децата от мизериите в социалните мрежи. Но това трябва да стане по такъв начин, че да не се налага всеки да си дава личните данни. От друга страна децата изобщо не са защитени. Аз мога да съм на 9 и да вляза в RedTube и да си гледам каквото поискам. Защото там само кликвам "да - над 18 съм". Значи децата не може да виждат голи мадами тук, но другаде може? А аз междувременно не мога да виждам медицински и криминални събове? Проблемът не е решен. Смешно е.

EDIT! Още по-лошо става! До колкото виждам, без да си дам личната карта и достъп до простатата, редит не иска да ми показва профила изобщо. Което означава, че не могат хората да виждат котките, които давам за осиновяване. Е. Не ми трябва Редит вече.

Do you think my dog is suffering when he is alone?

I have a GSD mix. He's 9 now, definitely not a pup. I've trained him quite well, he works, he assists me with some stuff, he's overall great. But I don't think he knows he's a dog. Obviously I'm half serious when I say this. What I mean is he's not just a Velcro dog, he's very dependent on me. But, at the same time, distrustful of strangers.

We live in a cabin in the woods. He isn't left alone most days but when I have to go into town, he stays inside for a few hours. He doesn't cause any mischief so it's not a safety issue - I'm just curious if he's in emotional pain while I'm gone. When I come back he'll scream his head off for 5 minutes. He jumps and shrieks like he's being disemboweled, he's that happy to see me. Even if I've been gone for an hour it's the same. When I let him out into the yard, he pees and immediately wants to come back inside to be with me. Yes, he gets lots of walks and hikes so he doesn't really need the yard but most dogs enjoy just being out in the open and he just wants to shove himself back into a tiny cabin because I'm inside. idk... He's weird.

So I wonder... When I'm gone, is he just chilling and waiting for me to come back or is he actively suffering.

Which supplements can I take with each other?

I take several supplements and I know it's best to take them spaced apart, but it's just impossible to watch the clock all day in order to achieve that :( What can I combine with what?

In the morning I have an energy drink and it's probably best to not take anything with it. Then I have to take two doses of vit. D (not at the same time), omega 3, creatine, calcium and magnesium. If I have a coffee at noon, that further complicates things because as far as I know, tannins prevent the absorption of a lot of supplements. I need all of those unfortunately so I can't simplify my regimen.

Аз съм доброволец, който спасява бездомни животни. Тези 2 котета сега си търсят дом, след като бяха спасени от бавна смърт.

От повече от 10 години се занимавам с това. В началото на тази намерих цяла колония бедстващи котки. Всички малки бяха болни от панлевкопения и гиардия. Бяха в критично състояние. Хванах ги и, накратко, след няколко хоспитализации и хиляди левове, оцеляха само 2 бебета, но вече са в отлично здраве. Ваксинирани са, чипирани, кастрирани, обезпаразитени и т. н. Настаних ги в приемен дом, но вече не могат да останат там. Трябва да им намеря домове. Освен това се върнах на мястото и кастрирах всички възрастни котки, които успях да хвана.

Is this "furniture" common in your country?

I see this all around Bulgaria. I wonder if it's normal throughout the Balkans and the Eastern Bloc at large.

I'm very proud of my boy. We went spelunking and he wasn't afraid at all.

He was perfect in every way during our full-day adventure. Except when he started lapping up the cave river water but I quickly gave him some clean water lol

Have I mentioned my "French toast" recently?

I gotta say folks, in all seriousness, my life is complete. This is the most delicious thing I've eaten.

What is this phenomenon I'm experiencing? Does it have a name?

First I want to highlight that I'm not looking for medical advice. I'm just doing this out of curiosity, for fun, shits and giggles, let's say. I have SDAM but over the past couple of years I've started to experience something super weird that I've never heard about before. I can't tell if something has already happened or if it's about to happen.

Don't get me wrong. I'm fully aware that I can't foretell the future. I just mean that my brain thinks it knows what will happen. Like I'm watching a movie and I know what's about to happen.

I'm 35 now, quite healthy. I've been diagnosed with ADHD but I'm not taking any medication (thanks, Eastern Europe!). Chronologically, things developed as follows.

First I realized my serious memory problems. When it comes to facts, my memory is OK. But I don't remember life experiences. Almost zero over the past 10 years. In addition, I forget tasks that I've done. Not ones that I have to do, but ones I have completed. I design some things for my work and multiple times now, when I move I file to the folder when it's ready, I see there's already a file like that! And the information is 99% the same as the other file. I've probably wasted so much time doing the same things. So now before I decide to compile something, I check and most of the time I've already done it. So I've adapted and learned to avoid this issue.

Another funny or actually scary thing is when I need to buy something and I put it off... This year I finally went to town and to the center and to that high end store and bought a garlic press. I'd been putting it off for months. When I got back home and put it in the drawer....... I saw there were two more there. Exactly the same. It was like a scene from a horror movie. I was stunned. Literally in shock. Since then I've been meticulous about shopping and to-do lists so I largely avoid fiascos like that.

Fast forward - the latest problem that appeared is that I will sometimes get to a moment in my daily life where I'm sure I know what will happen next. And it does happen. Again - what I mean is it feels like I knew it would happen. I realize that this is some trick that my mind plays on me. For example, I'm talking to a friend. I think "next he'll tell me about those tickets he has bought" and he does tell me. Or "during this hike, the next thing that I'll see after that hill is a river and a bridge" and I do see that, even though I've never been to that trail before. My only explanation is that my brain rewires the experience as a past one while it is being written. I can't explain it exactly. And maybe I'm wrong anyway. Now I don't even know "this is that thing that happened... Or that hasn't happened yet?" I feel very confused. Some things look familiar even though I am 100% sure I've never seen them. Places especially. At the same time I struggle finding my way around places I should know like the back of my hand. Like my old hood, for example.

Does this thingie have a name? It doesn't affect my functioning too much, I've found ways around it, but it feels funny. Especially when I'm hiking or exploring.

How do I prevent wasps from building nests in the gate knob?

My partner has been stung multiple times. I haven't for some reason, and neither has the dog. But I still want them gone. I don't want to kill wasps there again and again. What do I do to persuade them to find another home?
