I live in a college town. Several of our dogs came from the shelter, one of them was found in an empty apartment. Her owner moved and just left her, probably assumed someone would take her to the shelter.
It’s apparently pretty common around here. Luckily someone found her, but some of these apartments don’t immediately have a new tenant and the dog dies.
I just can’t imagine doing this. Our dogs are part of the family.
I can’t comment since I didn’t find her, only got her from the shelter, but I sure hope so. She’s an amazingly sweet dog too so that just breaks my heart even more for her. At least she’s in good hands now.
Iirc Firefox and I think Safari are the only major non-chromium browsers. It makes me so sad because I remember Google’s “don’t be evil” days… man they left that behind
I have two Instagram accounts and I created a Threads account on one. Searched for the other and there’s nothing I can find for it. Definitely can’t follow the second account on Threads.
I’m not trying to be a Meta apologist here. I trust them about as far as I can throw a car (especially given the insane amount of data collection mentioned in the App/Play Stores) but in my limited test I don’t see a way to follow an account until you activate it on Threads
I had pretty much this same thought just the other day. It’s so disheartening how oil companies and other industries managed to delay any significant changes that might have prevented this.
Currently on Tom Hanks’ The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece and just finished The Glass Hotel by Emily St John Mandel. Not sure what’s next but I’ll start looking when I get closer to the end of this book
A couple of years ago I discovered my wife of 25 years was having an affair. I kicked her out and told her to go be with him (maybe that's another AITA question). She asked what I would tell the kids, who at the time were 20 and 17 years old. I said I was going to tell them the truth. She pleaded, "please don't tell the kids." I...
NTA I was 20 when my parents split up because my dad had been cheating. It’s an open secret but he’s never admitted to it outright and I wish he would. I’d respect him more for it.
If your kids were younger I’d be more inclined to your YTA, but as it is, I don’t see a problem here.
For example, I was told to search for !catsubs from Lemmy.world in order for Lemmy to fetch it, but searching that using Lemmy search doesn’t work. What am I doing wrong?
I am so sick of employee engagement surveys and the resulting exercise in futility around soliciting changes that never get made. It’s honestly one of the more evil and deceitful processes that capitalism and academia have ever teamed up to create.
I went HAM on my most recent one. They’re anonymous but I’m sure my direct manager can tell my writing style. But the place I work for has been in refusing to do any hiring including backfills so now I’m a team of 1 doing what 7 people used to do and I let them know I’m not pleased.
I figure they aren’t. I didn’t curse or name anyone by name, I just made it pretty clear that the understaffing is job performance at a pretty severe level and that the workload has everyone miserable

Anyone here watching Silo? The 8th episode just aired which means there are two episodes left. So far I've been enjoying this a lot despite some people claiming it was a little slow in the middle. It's only 10 episodes long so even the whole thing goes by pretty quick....
Like another commenter I keep forgetting to watch it because I don’t check Apple TV often. I loved the books when I read them years ago and was glad to see it got renewed. I think I found some weekend plans

What are some examples of your tastes changing as you got older?
I’ve started to really like just mustard and sauerkraut on my hotdogs and racing games over FPS because they’re a little slower paced.
