This “lazy panda” doesn’t respond well to shaming coercion.

50 Feline Drama Queens Who Couldn't Keep Their Meows To Themselves (New Pics)

I call my boy “lil shıt” he’s the total cliche cat knocking stuff off flat surfaces. Eating as if there was no tomorrow. He gives no shits about living his fun, furry life. He’s obnoxious and horrible but I love every single hair on his body.

30 Tattoo Fails That Are So Bad, They Might Make You Cringe

Again - terrible idea, but the tattoo itself is really good.

“Wow, You Have Gotten So Fat”: Public Weight-Shaming Tirade Ends With Woman’s Clever Comeback

Since you are a relentless AH, I will explain what may be going on here. Often when people have tumours, especially when it involves the brain, they undergo a course of high dose cortico steroids eg dexamethasone which cause rapid weight gain due to fluid retention and disruptions to how the body metabolises glucose. So people often "balloon out" quite rapidly and their face has a rounded, puffy appearance. Even if a tumour is benign, it can cause problems for the person based on where it is. If it is causing her massive headaches or neurological symptoms etc, the docs are going to prescribe meds like steroids to try to reduce the size of it or surrounding inflammation so that they can operate more safely. 22kg weight gain from steroids? Yes absolutely, and not uncommon. The thyroid issues add another layer- an underactive thyroid is known to cause slow down the metabolic rate of the body while an overactive thyroid speeds it up. So someone with an underactive thyroid is usually overweight, has dry skin, brittle hair, and has difficulty concentrating versus someone with an overactive thyroid who is usuallyon the thin or underweight side, has a fast or irregular heart rate, more hair on their arms, feeling anxious and has trouble sleeping. Not everyone will want to be bothered to dumb it down for you or provide further explanation, and guess what? They're not entitled to.

Family’s Requirements For A Babysitter Are So Crazy, They Got Shamed For It Online

I worked part time jobs starting year one of uni and saved whatever I could. I was the cliché student who worked for McDonald’s during every break. I worked as a liquor store retail stooge during term time because the store was just downstairs from where I lived. I held a marketing research position that had me setting up interviews with CFO’s for three years. I worked my way through university just to be able to afford year 3 without a job in France. Year 4 I worked part time at a frozen food store. That’s it. It’s that simple. My parents couldn’t afford to give me money so I found jobs that paid and saved as much as I could.

“Doctor Was Surprised I Was Alive”: 30 Incredibly Lucky People That Survived Against All Odds

Your mother didn't give you life for you to waste it. I moved areas after messing up bad after going through trauma. It was a breath of fresh air to have no one know me and have a chance at starting again. Not saying it's the right way forward for you but I am saying, we can let negative trauma own us like cancer does and rule our lives or we can say 'I am gonna rule my future' everyday you stay in this fog and pain it is beating you all over again. Take the negative experiences and use them to succeed. But before anything else REACH OUT for help whether it be mental or physical or both. Healing, beating it and succeeding cannot start until you face it head on. Good luck

Clostridium difficile - a very nasty and highly contagious bacteria that cause gut issues ranging from diarrhoea to sepsis and can kill you. Not nice at all.

Hey Pandas, AITA For Demanding My Boyfriend Take Responsibility For His Actions?

It’s pretty easy to just tell you dodged a controlling, manipulative, train wreck of a relationship and expect it to help but I have a lot of experience dealing with the aftermath of exiting an abusive marriage. You’re probably questioning what you did to attract him in the first place. How your actions contributed to the way he treated you. If there’s any truth to his and his GF’s accusations. I’m here to tell you he was attracted to you because you’re attractive. That’s it! EVERYTHING else is on them. What I’d like you to do is block him and his GF on FB, spend some time locking down all your SM accounts so only your friends have access; it’s not too hard. Ask your group moderators to boot him out of your groups citing harassment. If they refuse, remove yourself. Any “friend” they use to get to you is not a friend, remove and block them if that happens. If you haven’t already, block his number on your phone. You can’t control what they write but you don’t have to see or internalize it. Try not to care what his friends think, after all, they are friends with him, which says a lot about who they are. You may lose some of your own friends but if they’re willing to take the words of someone mentally unstable over their knowledge of who you are, they aren’t friends. See, he and his GF are mentally ill; it isn’t ok to threaten homicide nor suicide as leverage to control a relationship. Be gentle with yourself. You made a mistake in trusting someone who turned out to be unworthy. We all make mistakes. You know this because you’re about a year sober. The woman who has fought and continues to fight addiction is incredibly strong; this is who you are and don’t let anyone tell you different.

Posting pictures of my children on social media. It disgusts me how normalised it has become for parents to post pictures of their new born babies literally minutes after they’ve entered the world. A child cannot consent to having their privacy obliterated like that. Urgh.
