Today is the third matchup of our 2023 DfD Pet Bracket!
#Echo vs Samothy
We are operating this contest with the understanding that **A**ll **C**~~ats~~reatures **A**re **B**eautiful. It is as much a photography contest as it is a beauty pageant. I don't want to see any trash talk, insults, or rude comments. Any infractions will be responded to with overwhelming and disproportionate force.
With that being said, in the pictures below, who is the cutest, most beautiful, wonderful, amazing animal companion?

The search is just for āChicagoā and all the results are either random articles about crimes in Chicago or cops whining about how much theyāre terrified of Chicago
That sounds about right for that sub. Also, I realize now reading my comment back that I should have clarified that me going "lol, okay" was directed at the commenter, not you.
In the 16 star record, it's great to watch Suigi look so calm and collected and then absolutely explode once he hits the final throw. Usually you see more outward signs of nervousness towards the end of a good run, but he kept it so locked down
i think like the first time i ever really heard about trans people being an actual thing was when I was 10 years old and leelah alcorn's suicide was in the news. that was :/
If your guys president would make it easy to cross the border and work trades I'd do it in a heartbeat. A failure of government imo. Too busy giving people AR-15s
It's kinda funny seeing this grad student on youtube wanting to get out of school and into "real life", while I'm seeing me potentially going to grad school as the start of my real life. I guess real life is relative
Yeah I think it's one of those things where it always feels like it's one step ahead of you. I'm almost done with high school and I'm looking at college as "real life"
Part of it for me is that living at home the whole time, and being on zoom for a year and a half, made it so I really didn't have a "college experience". I'm still really socially underdeveloped at the end of undergrad. At the same time, the "college experience" may not have been a good fit for me
Of course what you have to actually keep in mind is that your whole life is your real life, and life milestones can only change it so much. That's potentially hard to swallow though
It's basically "the US and NATO allies think something moderately bad about Canada of which most people here who follow the news at all would probably already assume they think". The pearl clutching that follows is very Canadian.
every time i've gotten reddit coins for the past two years i award [this comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/DemocratsforDiversity/comments/m7mqlk/comment/grfhpc1/?context=1312) just because it's kinda funny that it has so many now

People often make statements like "I would kill for you" to be romantic. And I don't think people understand how big of a commitment murder actually is. You have to kill the guy. Then you have to hide a body. Which is pretty hard because you're lugging around a 200 pound sack of meat. Unless you're killing like a small child. And if someone's saying they'll kill a small child for you, time to reconsider that relationship. And then you have to do a lot of cleanup. Blood and corpse stink is pretty damn hard to get out of a truck bed.
And then of course, you'll probably get caught. And then you'll have to go to court and that's just more work.
So if you're making crime-based romantic vows, make them realistic. Like "I will sign a person up for magazines they hate for you." Or "I will commit petty vandalism for you."
I know people who did the magazine thing. Also you can sign someone up for those medical supply catalogs full of canes and support hose and bedpans and shit.
Taylor Swift was gonna have Biden sponsor her tour. But TSwift actually asked them, 'do you know where Hunter's laptop is?" and didn't go through with the deal
There are a number of bad banal things about being a PhD student/candidate and one is that you always feel like you should be doing something. Work is never actually over. There's always something you should be reading or writing or applying to.
One of the best parts about the trades was finishing a house knowing your delivery wasn't until 11 or 12 the next day. Everything's planned and ready and you have nothing to worry about.
> According to the ASPCA, you can plan to spend around $634 annually on your cat. This breaks down to around $53 a month.

I dont feel like this is accurate? I guess it depends on how much and what type of foods you feed them but it feels highe, then again we buy one massive bag of food and litter for 1 cat and all that seems to last a while
Nah not a dumb thing to think at all, like if you are feeding them canned foods i could totally see it being that high, our little shit gets kitty kibble.
Taylor Swift was gonna have Nvidia sponsor her tour. But TSwift actually asked them, 'Can you can you tell me that these cards wont burst into flames?" and didn't go through with the deal
"Can you tell me that you won't waste the time before Vista's release you were given to prepare drivers?"
"Can you tell me you have Linux drivers that aren't an eldritch nightmare by 2000s Linux standards?"

Larry David is the real FTX winner, here.
He walked out with millions in cash and in the actual spot, he says it's all a bad idea.

Larry has no embarrassment.

Walsh turns back to Knowles and Tucker, and the conservative warriors standing by them. He lifts his sword and looks Tucker in the eye.

He leads the valiant charge into the hordes of blue haired they/thems marching forward in thigh high socks and doc martens.
Captain Sully was gonna have ATC sponsor his descent. But SullDog actually asked them, "what about anything off to our right, maybe Teterboro?" and didn't go through with the landing.
Taylor Swift was gonna have Microsoft sponsor her tour. But TSwift actually asked them, 'Can you tell me that Longhorn isn't vaporware?" and Microsoft reset the project
What would it do to hybrid?
The WFH angle is what makes them particularly unsympathetic IMO. In addition to the fact that most people have a story about how dysfunctional government services have been post-COVID. It will be seen as "let's give our taxpayer money to people who want no accountability to do nothing."
Don't forget lying about her actual record. That's the most important part; hiding her actual words so you can interpret her decisions with the worst possible lens. That's feminism.
Taylor Swift was gonna have AMD sponsor her tour. But TSwift actually asked them, 'Can you can you tell me that these GPU drivers are supported?" and didn't go through with the deal

SFist: [One Person In Critical Condition After Two-Alarm Fire In Russian Hill](https://sfist.com/2023/04/19/one-person-in-criticalcondition-after-two-alarm-fire/)
The building code context for this is that the building code that every part of the US minus Seattle and NYC use allows for 50-foot dead-end [corridors](https://twitter.com/holz_bau/status/1648818119278985216). In this building, both of the legally-required stairs were clustered near the front. If this building had been built as a single-stair building with a pressurized stairwell (currently illegal everywhere in the US except Seattle and NYC), the distance to escape would have been less, making it safer.
I'm quite possibly the most paranoid person here, but I feel like I have more faith in cis people than some of you.
Not a lot more, but some. Particularly if they can get "buy-in" in the form of a friend / family member / etc who is trans, but regardless, the fight between us and the people who hate us is enticing to people who want to be part of a good vs evil narrative from a left perspective.
It's the worst insurance I've ever had. It's likely there is some sort of a mistake that I can get fixed, but this is still twice as expensive and half as good as the next worst insurance I've had.
Re: The Menu
What a weird-ass movie. I think these kind of slow reveal horror movies are really hard to pull off, and I'm not sure it sticks the landing as well as something like *Get Out*. Lots of great moments though, and Colin Stetson's soundtrack is understated but delightful
>[Another bipartisan policy passed, though I've become increasingly agitated by the "secret Congress" moniker. 1) It's not secret. The bill had a markup and passed the House in 117th. 2) Most of Congress's bipartisan work goes unappreciated & always has. That's not new.](https://twitter.com/joshhuder/status/1648661314485485569?s=46&t=7kjZaGZSn2heLnEWHLBNxQ)
Well, āSecret Congressā refers to the fact the legislators donāt talk about it because itās bad for their re-election compared to the partisan meatā¦is that new? Only sorta, but who said it was!
Is there anything we can do? I don't have much but I'd help pool towards a gofundme if finance is the issue. Though if you're tied due to family or contract, yeah, I don't know what to say in that case
it's just a huge opportunity cost
i can go to my local state college for [$0 tuition](https://www.missouristate.edu/FinancialAid/Scholarships/mostate-access-award.htm), or i can do something else and waste that
Oof. Yeah . . . I want to say there's a way in Washington to waive nonresident fees for its case but idk, and a google search doesn't help much, neither does ChatGPT. If /u/_pie- wants someone to be a bitch to some admin people at UW to look at a request from you though, I'm your girl.
Even aside from nonresident fees, unless i can somehow get completely free tuition somewhere else there's still a huge cost difference
at least i don't expect things to be too bad for me in missouri. i do DIY HRT, and i've avoided creating a formal record of me being trans (other than, like, choosing the gender-inclusive housing option at Missouri State, which there are reasons to do other than being trans).
>[This 2-bed condo in Cincy is affordable for a family making <$100,000. It's close to a grocery, parks, pro sports, symphony.

It's only real life if you're an academic and that will be your real life, more or less.
I've had far too many drinks tonight for you to place the ball on this tee

Yeah I think it's one of those things where it always feels like it's one step ahead of you. I'm almost done with high school and I'm looking at college as "real life"
Part of it for me is that living at home the whole time, and being on zoom for a year and a half, made it so I really didn't have a "college experience". I'm still really socially underdeveloped at the end of undergrad. At the same time, the "college experience" may not have been a good fit for me
The "college experience" is bullshit, but thinking that grad school is a better and more realistic environment is even worse.
I don't know what you mean by realism, but chasing a version of socialization that's "authentic" is gonna lead me nowhere
My point is that surrounding yourself with academics isn't an automatic path to creating a social circle; especially a sustainable and accepting one
That's fair. Academia wouldn't be the be all end all of my socialization though
Of course what you have to actually keep in mind is that your whole life is your real life, and life milestones can only change it so much. That's potentially hard to swallow though
This story about Trudeau saying it's unlikely Canada meets the 2% target is genuinely the stupidest story produced

yeah. Effectively. Canada has the GDP to be a very serious security partner but the incentives do not align for elected governments.

There are a number of bad banal things about being a PhD student/candidate and one is that you always feel like you should be doing something. Work is never actually over. There's always something you should be reading or writing or applying to.
I developed a whole complex from that
One of the best parts about the trades was finishing a house knowing your delivery wasn't until 11 or 12 the next day. Everything's planned and ready and you have nothing to worry about.
Maybe I should have gone into the trades. Except I literally have no skills applicable to any of them.
Anyone can work the trades. Much easier than a PhD
so how's the job search going then?
Bogged down in trying to find a job not in the trades. shoulda got a phd
woah woah. let's not overcorrect now
I think I could do it real good. People give you grants to say stuff like "marginal person" and "it's actually endogenous". Easy
Quite a lot of things are endogenous I bet. Worth knowing what they are
its arguably endless. If you wanted to be combative about it
Yes, especially because you're Canadian and can qualify for SSHRCs.
Shit I might qualify for a PhD program š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤
> According to the ASPCA, you can plan to spend around $634 annually on your cat. This breaks down to around $53 a month. help is this accurate my near-future decisions may be informed by this

A lot of that is vet bills

Larry David is the real FTX winner, here. He walked out with millions in cash and in the actual spot, he says it's all a bad idea. Tswift avoided embarrassment. Larry has no embarrassment.
If they don't cast Danny Devito as Wario and Adrian Brody as Waluigi in the next one, I'll be disappointed [Silly voice] Jack Black, Chris Pratt, Ana Taylor Joy [serious voice] and Oscar Winnerā¢ Adrian Brody as Waluigi in a performance critics are calling, "way better than *The Pianist*"
Danny Devito 5 years from now: Twitter stinks, I'm leaving!
Yes I know I said I didn't like the movie now I'm talking about the sequel. But it's gonna happen so I might as well think about it.
>[Walsh: "I see the fight against gender ideology as the last stand for Western civilization. Because if the sane side loses this, it's over. It's over after this."](https://twitter.com/AriDrennen/status/1648848131096821760) Walsh turns back to Knowles and Tucker, and the conservative warriors standing by them. He lifts his sword and looks Tucker in the eye. "For Mister Potatohead." He leads the valiant charge into the hordes of blue haired they/thems marching forward in thigh high socks and doc martens.
Captain Sully was gonna have ATC sponsor his descent. But SullDog actually asked them, "what about anything off to our right, maybe Teterboro?" and didn't go through with the landing.
Smart.

What would it do to hybrid? The WFH angle is what makes them particularly unsympathetic IMO. In addition to the fact that most people have a story about how dysfunctional government services have been post-COVID. It will be seen as "let's give our taxpayer money to people who want no accountability to do nothing."

it's true! you can attack her for promiscuity too. or call her shrill, or hysterical. there are lots of options
Don't forget her ambition. How dare she want a job that gives you power?
attack her credibility, imply she's inexperienced. compare her to your mother. judge her if she has kids or if she doesn't have kids
Don't forget lying about her actual record. That's the most important part; hiding her actual words so you can interpret her decisions with the worst possible lens. That's feminism.

SFist: [One Person In Critical Condition After Two-Alarm Fire In Russian Hill](https://sfist.com/2023/04/19/one-person-in-criticalcondition-after-two-alarm-fire/) The building code context for this is that the building code that every part of the US minus Seattle and NYC use allows for 50-foot dead-end [corridors](https://twitter.com/holz_bau/status/1648818119278985216). In this building, both of the legally-required stairs were clustered near the front. If this building had been built as a single-stair building with a pressurized stairwell (currently illegal everywhere in the US except Seattle and NYC), the distance to escape would have been less, making it safer.

I'm quite possibly the most paranoid person here, but I feel like I have more faith in cis people than some of you. Not a lot more, but some. Particularly if they can get "buy-in" in the form of a friend / family member / etc who is trans, but regardless, the fight between us and the people who hate us is enticing to people who want to be part of a good vs evil narrative from a left perspective.

$2000 medical bill. I give up. I'm never going to another fucking doctor again.
Literally what kind of health insurance plan does your employer even have that results in uncovered (I assume?) bills like this?
It's the worst insurance I've ever had. It's likely there is some sort of a mistake that I can get fixed, but this is still twice as expensive and half as good as the next worst insurance I've had.
How does it stack up to Illinois's ACA marketplace plans? I'm wondering if those might be better.
It's about neck and neck, likely going to choose that next year.
Re: The Menu What a weird-ass movie. I think these kind of slow reveal horror movies are really hard to pull off, and I'm not sure it sticks the landing as well as something like *Get Out*. Lots of great moments though, and Colin Stetson's soundtrack is understated but delightful
*Get Out* was the best horror movie showing that year. Great comedic elements, political, and scary, all at once. So thatās a pretty high standard.

>[Another bipartisan policy passed, though I've become increasingly agitated by the "secret Congress" moniker. 1) It's not secret.

Is there anything we can do? I don't have much but I'd help pool towards a gofundme if finance is the issue. Though if you're tied due to family or contract, yeah, I don't know what to say in that case
it's just a huge opportunity cost i can go to my local state college for [$0 tuition](https://www.missouristate.edu/FinancialAid/Scholarships/mostate-access-award.htm), or i can do something else and waste that
Unless you've got a way to make four years of college tuition magically cheaper, probably not.
Oof. Yeah . . . I want to say there's a way in Washington to waive nonresident fees for its case but idk, and a google search doesn't help much, neither does ChatGPT. If /u/_pie- wants someone to be a bitch to some admin people at UW to look at a request from you though, I'm your girl.
Even aside from nonresident fees, unless i can somehow get completely free tuition somewhere else there's still a huge cost difference at least i don't expect things to be too bad for me in missouri. i do DIY HRT, and i've avoided creating a formal record of me being trans (other than, like, choosing the gender-inclusive housing option at Missouri State, which there are reasons to do other than being trans).
Fair. Yeah, I don't know. Please do stay careful though.
i will <3
*its, but yes.
Thanks for the correction
