8 Summer Dangers for Cats →
shine.yahoo.com
please look this over, especially if you have a cat who spends any time outside.
as always please remember to NEVER leave your pet in a car on a hot day. it takes 15 minutes for the interior of a car to reach over 100 degrees, and cracking the windows provides only minimal relief. if you do choose to leave your pet in the car, don’t be shocked if you come back to find your window smashed in and your pet gone, because that’s probably what i’ll do.
Can we also add outdoor water butts/rain water barrels to this list in reference to outdoor cats?
Mainly the types with hinged lids, as theyre not made to support the weight of most cats and they can accidentally fall in. If the butt is full, it could lead to a possible disaster. As the insides of these containers are smooth, cats cant claw out and escape.
“According to the 2006 census, United States, has over 300 million people with 155 million being female. Recent studies also tells us more than 62% of american women today are a size 12 and above. Thats about 96 million plus size women. Wait, think for a second, it means for every 10 women that pass you in the mall at least 6 are considered “plus size”. All puns aside thats a very big number that you can’t help but notice. 96 million and all but only 5 actual plus size retail chains exist; Ashley Stewart, the Avenue, Lane Bryant, Torrid, and Catherine’s. Combined, those 5 brands have over 1200 retail stores to serve 96 million plus size women! If you do the math its about one store for every 80,000 women. I’m pretty sure that is the reason why I can never find anything in my size. Yes, we can now shop H &M (sometimes), Kmart, Macy’s, Target, and other stores but its just 5 solely dedicated to plus size with a selection mediocre at best. Here is the kicker: combined there are over 12,000 retail stores dedicated to the 59 million women under a size 12.”

album of the day….
now to even find a repress of this on vinyl would make me happy.
Cults - Go Outside
it annoys me that you only hear this song now during that terrible brothers cider ad.
the cults were really kinda cute, even if they were a tad dull live.
This is ridiculous
If you think you might have a mental disorder, do not take a dumb test on the Internet. That will tell you nothing, nor will posting the results on your blog make anything better. Quizzes like that are not accurate diagnostics and fetishize and trivialize mental illness. Get yourself to a professional who can provide coping skills and medication. Seriously.
Oh I am sick of people spouting this fucking bullshit see a doctor like it’s always that fucking easy or cheap or they’re always fucking competent or that it’s not fucking terrifying and difficult as shit when you’re suffering from a mental illness to give some right-wing voting rich fuck potential power over you’re fucking life.
YEAH
SO
FUCKING
EASY.
I am so sick of people spouting this fucking sufferer-blaming fucking bullshit.
FUCK. YOU.
Not all Drs are incompetent, brushing them all because of the acts of one or a few is wrong. Also, you dont have to go to a Dr, you can just see a therapist (they can be both, but not both be each other, if that makes sense…)
When I was at my lowest in the US, I was lucky to find somewhere that worked on a sliding scale basis (lucky I was able to afford a car, so could drive the 45 minutes to and fro to get help) and gave me my medicine for free. Those people SAVED my life.
I’m not saying that you shouldn’t necessarily see a doctor, but this fucking sufferer-blaming bullshit is not fucking right. I can sure as hell empathise with people who decide they won’t or can’t seek treatment because IT IS NOT FUCKING EASY. So yeah. This post is bullshit.
No, you should never ever feel shame over your disease. NEVER.
Depression is something that sticks with you and never, ever really goes away.
My post isnt bullshit, because asking for help isnt bullshit - its the first step to RECOVERY and beginning to function day to day.I never asked, someone reached out and helped me. I was dragged in and registered. I know not EVERYONE is that lucky to have people who care, but when you do reach out for help theres nothing wrong with seeking it.
Also, the place who helped me, understood it takes MANY attempts to actually get your feet in the door and going through it. Missed/cancelled appts? No charge. Just a phone call to make sure you were okay and if you wanted to reschedule.
Also theres nothing wrong in NOT seeking it either.
It hurts when I see people I care for deeply and suffering worse than I did, and being unable to get up and out and ask for help. All I can do, is be there when they reach out during the low points and listen. Sometimes that in itself is therapy.
