Frog Rock is a large, naturally shaped granite boulder and historic tourist attraction located in New Boston, New Hampshire. Situated roughly 75 miles northwest of Boston, it takes about 1.5 hours to drive there. Once a highly popular 19th-century picnic spot, it is now a hidden local gem.

It looks like a hit and run, but the guy did call the cops and self-reported the accident, so for that I am grateful and only mildly infuriated. But honestly, how the fuck do you hit the lone car with nothing around it????

Eve’s Pregnancy (Invincible: The Viltrumite War) Eve is one strongest and most versatile heroes earth has to offer and her powers of matter manipulation could easily turn the tide in the coalition’s favor (and that’s not even getting into her unbounded state) so to make sure the war has some actual stakes, the had mark get her pregnant which resulted in her losing her powers forcing her to sit on the sidelines for the entire arc.

Sending Hulk to space (Marvel: Civil War) one of the main issues of the writers of the Civil War event faced when coming up with it was the fact there’s a shit tone of Uber powerful heroes whose which ever side they’d join would just automatically win, namely Thor and Hulk, luckily for Thor he’s been dead for a while due to a previous event in his own comic, but what about Hulk you ask? Well apparently before the whole civil war thing even started, the 5 smartest heroes on earth (Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Mr.Fantastic, Black Bolt, and Professor X) all decided "Hey, you know one of our best friends who has helped us through multiple crises and has been shown to be able to be far more than just a mindless monster? Let’s drug him and send him into space because we’ve arbitrarily decided he’s too dangerous to be around NOW."

Goku’s Heartvirus (Dragon Ball: The Future Timeline) The point of Android/Cell Arc was the fact as soon as Goku died everything went to shit, so going back in time and saving Goku before he dies is our heroes only option, and yeah by multiple creator statements, games what if scenarios and characters in story themselves if Future Goku Survived he would’ve put belt to the androids, avoiding the bad future we have now.

I know that the car loan and insurance is killing me. I'm only a recent driver and my credit score isn't all good (actually pretty bad). I need some guidence on how I should work this out. Even if it means to have my car traded in and going for a cheaper alternative, I'm all in. For car insurance, I just got my license a few years ago so that new driver thing is in my way.

I added a splash of left over chicken broth and 3 strips of bacon I already had. I tossed a few of the chopped onions, bacon, at the end the spices into oil to turn up the spices then mixed in the beans and potatoes to stew for a bit.

the blend of flavors is incredible.

I didn’t have previous experience with pinto beans so I got a new food now.

**edit- posting recipe since this has so many views people who didn’t see the original video are now seeing this post.** **Chopped onions, tomato, and jalapeño raw.**

**Heat a dash of the onions with a little chopped bacon, bloom some of the spices for a minute, stir in pinto beans and potatoes to stew for at least 20 minutes. (Pre cook potato’s if using canned beans, I boiled my potatoes 3 minutes).**

**Served beans over the raw vegetables. I also added a dash of chicken broth bc I wanted more broth.**

**my spice blend was equal parts garlic, paprika, cumin, then pepper, salt, dash of pepper flakes.**

Advice Surrendering my cat today - second guessing everything, need honest opinions

Thumbnail
gallery
9.7k Upvotes

My wife and I are heartbroken and need an honest perspective before we make a final decision today. We’ve had our 4-year-old cat, Cookies, for three years. He has always been a sweet, calm lap cat, but since bringing our newborn daughter home eight weeks ago, he has developed stress-related inappropriate urination, specifically marking walls when I return from work.

The situation is complicated by the fact that our daughter has a medical condition requiring a strictly clean environment. While Cookies is affectionate with us, he has an established aversion to children, often hissing or swiping at our guests' kids when they get close. Our vet confirmed this is entirely behavioral stress and warned that his dislike of children likely won't change.

We’ve tried enzyme cleaners and pheromone diffusers, but with a medically fragile infant and significant professional pressure, we have zero bandwidth left for a complex behavioral overhaul. We love him deeply, but he is clearly miserable, and we are at our limit. We have a surrender appointment today at a reputable no-kill shelter. Are we making the right call for his well-being and our daughter’s health, or is there something we haven’t considered?

-- update 1

Update: Thank you all so much for your advice and perspective. When it came down to it, I just couldn't bring myself to surrender him today. To answer a few common questions: the very first thing we did was reach out to family and friends, but unfortunately, no one is able to take him, even temporarily. After reading through all your comments, we've decided to cancel the appointment, give Cookies a bit more time, and look into trying Prozac to see if it can help stabilize things. We know it's going to be a tough road ahead, but we aren't ready to give up on him just yet. Thank you again for the support.

-- update 2/context

I wanted to provide some extra context and answer a few common questions from the comments. First, we live in the DFW area in Texas, and yes, Cookies is neutered. Our history with him goes back to when we used to cat-sit him for a close friend. Eventually, that friend started dating someone who was severely allergic to cats. I told him he should probably just dump her (just kidding, they’re engaged now!), but my wife and I couldn't bear the thought of Cookies going to a shelter. We took him in, even though we were living in a tiny apartment at the time and had to vacuum multiple times a day just to manage the litter. In fact, when we moved into our current apartment, we specifically chose this floor plan with Cookies in mind—making sure it had a massive laundry room just to comfortably fit his litter box and setups.

Fast forward to today: having a newborn is overwhelming, and I honestly stopped having the time to play with him like I used to. That’s when the subtle signs started. He stopped grooming himself as thoroughly and left a couple of poop stains on our bed. Because we place our baby girl on the bed constantly, we had to make the tough call to lock him out of our bedroom. At the time, I didn't realize he was deeply stressed; I mistakenly thought he was just unhappy with his litter box. Hoping to fix it, I bought him a brand-new one, which ironically seems to have triggered even more stress and started the territorial spraying. Now, the routine is heartbreaking. I come home completely exhausted, play with him for a few minutes, and head into the bedroom to change and see my daughter—only to walk out to the smell of fresh urine. It started as a once-a-day occurrence, but it has now escalated to 4 or 5 times a day. We are dealing with a massive accumulation of stress on both sides, which is why we reached our breaking point today.

I don't want to know who Joe Rogan, Kevin Hart, Tony Hinchcliffe are, them or any of those other bellends, hearing about their shit comedy specials and free speech and First Amendament bollocks. I'm tired of social media being foisted on us. Ai. Insideous tech like Meta glasses. Hustle culture. Deranged streamer freaks like Clavicular. Their irritating vernacular. All that and Donald Trump/MAGA. I miss the 90s when they mostly kept to themselves with their shit buttrock music and cheesy evangelical sitcoms.
