I’m not adding to any conversation really but this is pretty much my answer too

You’re very welcome, I’m glad I could help, if even a smidge!
She was a great dog, and thank you. I had someone come into my home and do it so she could be comfortable with her surroundings. She’s didn’t like the vet office much 😂. My first dog loved anyone and everything and going to the vet was a treat because of the people, so taking her in wasn’t a big thing for her. Just wanted to let you know about the in home option in case that seems like a good option for you.
I haven’t had the experience to see either of my MY dogs grow old to have to make this decision in the same way you are. Both at 8.5yrs and full of piss and vinegar ended up with cancers that were terminal. When I was looking into this for myself and struggling with the decision, I stumbled upon a vet’s blog that basically said she never once heard anyone say they did it too soon, and only ever heard regret about having waited too long. A family friend also gave me advice that it’s the last act of love and compassion we can give them. I am not judging you and say this with no intended shame at all, with only what you’ve said to go by, but I think it’s time, and maybe a little past time. At the end of the day it’s you and your well loved furry friend, not me and mine. It’s going to be hard no matter when, so if you can, try to have family with you and planned support for a few days. You’ll feel their presence for a very long time. My most recent was in April last year and that nugget is still around me in many ways, and getting blamed for my gas at both ends.
I went on a little unnecessarily. I’m sorry that this decision is upon you, but I’m glad you’ve been able to have and provide this companionship that has brought you here.
Actually could be the breathing asshole of a parasitic fly larvae. Put some petroleum jelly over it in a thick layer and see if whatever it is crawls out.
Looked like either a rupturing cyst or maybe a skin tag. I wouldn’t think it’s anything serious but I will always recommend having a vet check it. Imo it’s likely nothing but I’m also not a trained vet.
Interesting, I’ve been using jerboa since the great migration,and while it has had its moments, it’s overall been a smooth and enjoyable ride. Early on I had an issue like you’re describing with the sort types, but not in many versions. 0.0.55 is the latest play store version. Might be worth clearing data and cache and re-logging in if you are already on latest
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there an alternative to saying "so-called" which doesn't suggest potential falsehood?4·2 years ago“as it’s called” or “as they’re called”? It’s a bit wordier but I think conveys the meaning you’re going for without the negative connotation. I also think context should usually direct a reader/listener to or from any negative connotation for the “so called” usage. That said, it doesn’t hurt to be clearer.
I’m not a health expert, take this with a grain of salt. I’d be disappointed it was rusting, but also mostly shrug it off and keep using it unless it gets bad and flaky/scaley
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Can anyone tell what kind of fish this is from?5·2 years agoHow far northwest? If close enough to lake Superior, maybe a lake whitefish. If not very close to lake Superior or other deep lakes, possibly a white sucker or quillback, which I grew up calling a sheepshead.
Scroll through this and you can check out the whiter fish with larger scales.
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Walgreens pharmacy staff walk out, citing unsafe working conditions141·2 years agoYeah, specifying “base salary” seems pretty disingenuous. It’s all about the add-ons.
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Walgreens pharmacy staff walk out, citing unsafe working conditions5·2 years agoI had to double check that my boozed up vision didn’t loose a couple zeros. Fuck CEOs across the board, hell, “C-suite” in general, but 1.5m is about the lowest I’ve heard for a CEO.
That said, their decisions are generally the real reason to hate on the Cs. The gap in pay is the hate cherry on top.
Edit: I’m reminded that base salary is a pretty lame comparator after reading another comment. Total compensation package is worth taking about.
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto memes@lemmy.world•I'm sure there's a compelling story to it, but it sure looks like Wisconsin is getting buillied.15·2 years agoIt’s a difficult place, short summers, long hard winters.
UPers (you._purs) are an interesting lot. I’m not sure Wisconsin wants them, and they wouldn’t have it anyway if Wisconsin did.
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I've felt intense love and heartbreak before and I don't think I could ever handle it again. Am I wrong for thinking that it doesn't get any better?72·2 years agoIn the context of my comment, it’s pretty clear what I was referring to as love. I’m not sure what part of the expressing of my current experience was so threatening to a bunch of people, but that wasn’t my intent.
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I've felt intense love and heartbreak before and I don't think I could ever handle it again. Am I wrong for thinking that it doesn't get any better?104·2 years agoYeah, now I’m old and, when it comes to relationships, mostly dead inside. Starting to think I may be aromantic and now pretty much consider “love” to be a more positively connotated word for codependency.
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it possible to make my data worthless?41·2 years agoYou basically described the other half of me right here. I waffle back and forth between your view and trying to do something about it. I go back to feeling it’s futile and doesn’t matter anyway, before getting fed up with targeted ads again. Wash, rinse, repeat.
pezmaker @sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it possible to make my data worthless?132·2 years agoThis is just my opinion, but I don’t think so. I love the thought and wish there was, though. I think no matter what you do, it’s still information about a potential user/customer and still tells someone looking at it about you. “Oh, we have information on about 4% of the population that wants to actively subvert our data analytics.”. Obviously that’s made up, I didn’t bother trying to even guess what a potentially realistic number might be.
Again in my opinion, the only way to provide no value to data analytics is to not be a data point, and good luck with that. Best I’ve been trying to do is disable targeted ads anywhere I can, reset my identifier ids regularly on things like android tv where I can, and try to blast cookies anywhere possible. I don’t know if it even makes a difference or just makes me feel better

I think they’re upset that they’ll have to compete with ps5 “influencers” for content that was once exclusive to them, or something stupid and modern age like that
