2025.01.31 06:49 No_Instruction_5964 Lost interest

So a couple I started chatting with, things were going well for a while with us messaging. We even exchanged a few pics. The sexual attraction was there. I should have known something was wrong and to good to be true since I never received a full body pic. Then one day I get a full body snap from the wife and to my disappointment I became instantly unattracted after seeing how her stomach was so large it covered the top of her thighs and she's about 5'7. I feel bad because they're such very cool people but also upset and disappointed that I was misled. It's been about a month since I've been ignoring messages as I haven't found a nice way to tell them that's the reason why I'm not longer interested.

2025.01.31 06:49 HogarusDenn [Update] Uni and Kilim, a few weeks in

[Update] Uni and Kilim, a few weeks in So I have been living with Uni and Kilim for a few weeks now. Here is how things are going! (Sorry for the long post, rat tax is provided accordingly).
Any feedback, criticism and advice welcome! Also, any praise to both those two cuties will be duly forwarded!
Cage: One week after my precedent post, the Critter Nation cage arrived! Great!
Now I understand why everyone is recommanding it. It's well designed and well built, definitely worth paying extra for it. I've started decorating it and adding stuff to it but it's still a process.
Here is what they have:
  • 4 lava ledges for nail trimming. They are placed strategically under the water dispensers so that they have to use it at least a few times each day.
  • Water bottles. I wish I had known that water bottles are not created equal. Two of the ones I bought first are wholly useless. Why is it so hard to design decent water bottles? The ones I settled for now are much better thanksfully, but still. The large one I bought doesn't fit the bars and a smaller one was broken after a week.
  • Loads of cardboard: I built a few tunnels, ramps and homes with cardboard from the many boxes we received with all their stuff. Interestingly it's really what they seem to love and use most.
  • A dig box: also made of cardboard. I put wood chips in, covered with timothy hay, with a weight at the bottom to prevent it from tipping over. They don't seem to care much for the hay but they do rumage in it if I put food in it. They are not too excited by the concept it seems.
  • Rope: as a way to get from one place to the next in the cage. They don't seem to like the fact that it's not very steady and they mostly ignore it. I will have to think of something else.
  • Ledges and rigid rope perches: I have different size and materials for the ledges, from cardboard to different types of wood. They seemed more excited by it in the beginning but I rarely see them climb them now (they prefer climbing the cage bars to navigate vertically). I often hide some treats on the ledges as motivation for them to climb and they do get eaten everyday so I guess they still see some use.
  • Hideouts: on top of the three cardboard ones they use most for nesting, they also have a wooden one that is unfortunately a bit too small that they only chew at. There is also a larger wicker one that is maybe too large but they do use it as a food cache.
  • Toys: they have three foraging balls that I stick treats in each meal, but they often don't care. Also, I added stick chews that see irregular use, as well as hanging chew toys that seem to have more success. Uni really likes the sepia bone, Kilim not so much.
  • Hammocks: the Sputnik! Probably Uni's favorite place, especially since we added fleece towels to make it more cozy. She often sleeps there. There is also another fleece hammock but I've never seen them use it. Maybe it's poorly placed since it's on the lower tier?
  • fleece towels. A recent addition. Unfortunately the wooden chips adhere to it like crazy so they don't stay clean for long and are a pain to clean afterwards. They like moving them around but they prefer paper for bedding.
  • Litter boxes: one for each level, after seing that just one was not sufficient to prevent them from defecating everywhere and anywhere. Since the new litter box entered service it's slightly better.
  • Bedding: aspen wood chips. It gets EVERYWHERE. My only issue with critter nation is that the bottom of the trays is so shallow. The bedding just flies around and covers the floor around the cage. I want to try something else. I really would like to find some cellulose-based bedding like Biofresh or Alpha dry +, since after researching it it seems to be the absolute best, but I don't know if it can be bought by regular non scientist people. Any advice on that?
  • Litter: recycled paper ferret litter. It does a great job at keeping odors under control, so that's great! For some reason they love to use the litter as a food cache and usually like to eat there too... No idea why.
  • Fall breaking: to prevent dangerous falls I made sure that the risky areas had either crumple-able cardboard or the dig-box below. I witnessed one fall from the higher level, thanksfully nothing bad, and improved the safety since. Once we get more stuff to equip the cage it should get better.
Health:
Both are female.
Uni eats ANYTHING, Kilim on the other hand is quite picky. When they arrived Kilim was slightly larger than Uni but the balance has reversed totally since then.
Here is their weight curve, assuming they were 6 weeks old when they arrived.
Week 7: Kilim: 155 g Uni: 162 g
Week 8: Kilim: 162g Uni: 173g
Week 9: Kilim: 189g Uni: 202g
From the tables I found, Kilim is on the lower end of the range and Uni on the higher end. I suspect that Uni is taking a larger part of the food in the cage. I've started monitoring Uni more closely because I suspect that she is more likely to overeat. The biggest issue to discuss will be the diet.
Uni had a case of new home sniffles but it's gone now (at least I believe it is, she will sneeze from time to time but really rarely and she is otherwise really dynamic and energetic). I will also ask the vet to make sure.
Next vet checkup will be next week.
Main diet:
  • The breeder's mix: Uni eats mostly anything in it so that's good, but Kilim only eats corn and a few seeds and rejects pellets. Definitely not optimal.
  • Mazuri pellets: Uni stashes broken pellets but I don't think that she actively eats them. Maybe it's still too big relatively to her size? Kilim doesn't even aknowledge their existence.
    Still on the fence about what I should do for the main diet...
Treats:
  • Sunflower seeds. They would kill for the stuff. They have a one gram a day allowance (shell included) mostly used as training incentive or to "make them happy" when we interact with them.
  • Gerber puffs. Another treat they enjoy, only given during freeroaming. They eat both banana and peach flavored puffs and don't seem to have a clear preference. It is less motivating than sunflower seed however.
  • Dried chicken / dried deer: they receive up to one treat a day. They don't really like the chicken but they do like the deer, especially Uni.
  • Dried fish: another punctual treat, both like it but not to the level of sunflower seeds or puffs.
  • Yoghurt: total bust they don't show any interest in yoghurt at all.
Veggies and fruits: They get one fresh vegetable/fruit source each day. Here is what I found out.
  • Banana: depending on their mood they will either eat it readily or ignore it totally. They do love mashed banana delivered by feeding syringe.
  • Blueberries: rather successful especially when put in the water bowl to scoop. They don't eat a ton of it but they enjoy it when it's there.
  • Kumquat flesh: at first they shown no interest in it, but the second time around they were really into it. Go figure.
  • Carrot: a successful staple. They eat it readily and don't usually have leftovers.
  • Apple: another bust. They don't like it and usually just push it away from the veggie plate. A slight dip in honey and they will eat it though.
  • Broccoli: the messier the better. They love broccoli and they love that it just leaves crumbs everywhere.
  • Coriander: another very successful veggie. Usually we will use it as a training treat since it's a really strong motivator for them.
  • Mint: also succesful, less than coriander though.
  • Cucumber: a solid veggie that they will readily eat, unfortunately it's usually not a great motivator and will not really work as a treat. Usually there are no leftovers.
Behaviour:
After a few weeks there is already a lot to see, a lot to learn too!
Uni: - Very "puppy-like". Loves to play and fool around - Eats everything and eats a lot. - Risk-taker. A big change from the early days. Uni used to be the more cowardly of the two and avoid climbing or jumping. That changed totally and now it's the opposite. She will take jumps, climb hands and shoulders without hesitation, go into the"weighing box" for a treat and explore everywhere during freeroaming. - "Bully". She usually initiates wrestling bouts with Kilim, when they were smaller she would usually lose but now the weight advantage is starting to pay off. She will also steal food from Kilim's mouth. - Handling-shy. Uni doesn't like being lifted and will recoil from it more actively than Kilim. I'm working on it with treats and training in general but it's still a work in progress. - Likes toys and to play chase with chew sticks or human hands. - Hoppity. Uni jumps and scoots around everytime we start an interaction or initiate free roaming. She gets very excited. - Pro stasher: anything that's hard or large to eat will get stashed away. Usually in the litter box.
Kilim: - More "serious" or catlike. - Quite neophobic and scaredy - Usually calmer and more prudent - Will not climb hands, may climb sleeves with the proper motivation and with hesitation. - More comfortable being handled. She will not struggle or try to wiggle away from a handling though she would prefer being left on the ground, thank you very much. - No interest in play, will prefer doing her own exploring - Nest architect. Kilim has redesigned her cardboard box to her specs with lots of shredded paper, built a backdoor for easy access to the back of the cage and usually stashes a few crumbs inside. She is much more motivated by nesting material than Uni.
Training and freeroaming
Training is done mainly during freeroaming during short 5 minutes sessions and from time to time with an open cage. Since this week, freeroaming is done once a day in the evening when both are most awake and for around one hour.
  • Vet-training. Right now since they both still show discomfort being handled and lifted, I focus on weighing training (put them in the weighing box and treat). Unfortunately one time Kilim tipped the box over and got frightened so that's a setback with her. It's moving along quite well for Uni.
  • Name training: Saying their name and treat on reaction. No reliable response for now. Uni will react to voice to get a treat but without any concern to what is actually being said. I get the feeling that Kilim "gets it" a bit more but it's still very much a work in progress.
  • Litter training: a few breakthroughs recently during freeroaming, but accidents are still frequent. They have constant access to their original small cage and litter box during free roaming. Kilim is the most reliable of the two, Uni shall poo wherever and whenever she pleases. However after a "put in litter box immediately after accident", Uni looked like she had a eureka moment and finished her business in the litter box.
  • Trust building: when tired during free roam, Kilim will nest close to us and snuggle, clean herself and eventually fall asleep (with one eye open most of the time still). Uni usually doesn't rest easily during free roam but she will sleep anywhere in the cage, even in the open, unlike Kilim who will prefer sleeping in a tight nest. When Uni sleeps she really sleeps, eyes fully closed. Both do not show a dislike to being stroked or scratched softly, Kilim even seems to enjoy it when she is tired and resting.
  • Clicker training: click then treat. Still doing the "loading" of the clicker. They seem to understand that click means treat but it doesn't mean that they will reliably react when prompted.
Issues and questions:
  • How did you teach your rats their names? How long did it take? How reliable is a call to get a reaction from them?
  • Area control : during free roam there are areas that while safe could allow them to access unsafe areas if we are not vigilent enough, so we would like to keep them away from them. For now we remove them while saying "no" or handblock them when they try and go there, but it just seems to exacerbate their curiosity about said area. Any advice?
  • Vet handling/checkup. How long did it take you to teach your rats to tolerate handling enough to perform a visual and manual checkup? Any advice on how to proceed?
  • How do you deal with a picky eater?
  • Fleece hammock placement: where would be the best spot?
  • How to get some research-grade bedding? Do you know if Shepherd or Biofresh sell to non-professionnals?
  • Do you notice anything I'm doing wrong or poorly that I should change ASAP?
  • Panic sounds: I found out that some sounds acually scare the living hell out of them: the shaking of paint spray bottles with a bead in it. Of course I only use aerosols outside but wow I didn't expect them to run for their dear lives from that sound. So now I shake my paints outside too. They really dislike plastic bags too.
On the other hand the vacuum cleaner and coffee mill do not scare them and rather seem to intrigue them.
That's all! They are lovely, adorable, awesome and a lot to handle!

2025.01.31 06:49 Emotional-Ad-6494 What should you prioritize with $330k income? TFSA > RRSP > down payment

Have friends that are in early 30s and looking for help, what would be the order of priorities to ensure you’re doing things well?
Example— House prices seem to be dropping and they feel tempted to get on the “ladder” but also don’t have much in RRSP and nothing in TFSA yet.
They make good money (330k combined) so think the possibility of maxing out their investments could definitely happen but not sure what is best approach?

2025.01.31 06:49 Mon3297 My (27F) ex's mother criticised me for complaining about his misbehaviours

She wanted me never to bring our issues in front of other people. And the issues were not small, they were huge, like him verbally abusing and insulting me. Whenever I tried to complain about him so that she or any other of his family members can make him understand his behavior is wrong, they criticised me only. She wanted me to deal with him privately. According to her, problems arise in all relationships but no one involves a third person. I think it's due to these kind of mothers the son becomes narcissistic.

Including losses to 5 times currently in the bottom 3 of their respective divisions (Habs, Rangers, Predators, Blues, Blackhawks).
Definitely needing the upcoming break in the league for guys to rest up for the playoff push because we need off the struggle bus.

2025.01.31 06:49 MrBlueSly Creo que estoy perdiendo a mi mejor amigo

Bueno, conocí a mi mejor amigo en la secundaria (hace ya 11 años) y desde entonces hemos sido como hermanos, aunque nos gustan cosas diferentes hemos compartido muy buenos momentos, hace 2 años yo conseguí novia y la verdad es que estoy muy feliz con ella, sinceramente es una chica increíble y me ha apoyado en momentos difíciles, y bueno, desde que empecé a andar con mi novia si me "alejé" un poco de mi amigo, no cortamos contacto ni mucho menos, de hecho suelo pasar algunos días festivos con el y su familia, también salimos de vez en cuando a tomar algo o así, pero últimamente he sentido que nos estamos alejando un poco más, quizás simplemente sea el curso natural de la vida, ya no somos niños y cada quien tiene que tomar su camino, solo no quiero perder el vínculo que hemos tenido todos estos años.

Hey guys anyone have a New 52 reading order that covers all the main points. I’ve read a lot of New 52 but thought it would be really fun to find a reading order that has all the big moments from it and taste of the whole universe. However the only reading orders I’ve been finding that is anywhere close to this is a collection of every single new 52 comic which is just too much reading lol. Anyone know of or have anything like this?
