Iâm a pretty lapse Protestant at this point in my life, but had I seen this woman, I would have immediately assumed she was struggling/in need of community or guidance. Instead of tweeting about her, I wonder if it ever crossed OPâs mind to show grace, compassion, and fellowship.
Woman at church yesterday showed up in a sweatshirt and literal pajama pants. Wore her hood the entire service. I was absolutely appalled. I hate this whole, âcame as you areâ narrative the Protestant church preaches. Other religions wouldnât let you in if you dressed so disrespectfully. Why is it only Christianâs that are held to this standard? That we must just accept everything?
I have a ton of questions for all the humans involved in this:
1. What was the family told about the pugâs condition?
2. Was euthanasia the option because it was what they could afford?
3. Why didnât they stay with their dog?
4. Did the vet not offer ethical surrender if priceâŚ
đ¨#BREAKING: A family in Georgia is outraged after they paid to have their 4-year-old pug named Cha Cha euthanized...
...and then MONTHS LATER later saw a photo on Facebook of their dog ALIVE AND WELL with a vet from the animal hospital
The story is wild.
According to the family, Cha Cha the dog got very sick, the vets told them it was organ failure and diabetic ketoacidosis... so the family decided euthanisia was the best course of action.
The family said goodbye in March, paid the bill, and went home grieving.
But according to the family, someone at that hospital was very attached to Cha Cha, because a worker took her home instead.
Months later, Rebecca (the owner of Cha Cha) was scrolling Facebook and saw a photo.
Her words: âI knew scrolling like thatâs my dog.â
Even more wild...the vet's husband confirmed it, his wife not only had Cha Cha, but he says the pug was in GOOD HEALTH.
The dog they were told was dying was actually ALIVE and DOING WELL.
But it gets worse.
When the family went to the hospital, managers DENIED IT, Rebecca says they got a LAWYER and wonât talk about it.
Then, the family believes, the hospital put Cha Cha down to hide what happened.
Rebeccaâs words:
âThe fact that they put a healthy dog down. Thatâs just sick.â
And this is NOT the first time.
Earlier this year, another family said their cat Annie was supposed to be euthanized at the SAME hospital, and a worker took her home too.
The hospital admitted it âfell shortâ that time.
And Annie? She was put down too.
So twice now, a dog or cat has been alive and cared for after the family said goodbye.
...this is beyond insane

it's funnier people can't understand the cruelty towards women is the issue not that he Đşills them, like terrifier is so fucking misogynistic it almost reads as a feminist deconstruction of slasher films similar to ash from evil dead & Johnny bravo being critiques of womanizers.
I deeply regret reading @AnnieJacobsen because being ignorant seems way easier than whatever this is (sorry, Annie. Your books are great!)

When your colleagues let you embrace your inner Mulder/Baltimore weirdo to help students practice dynamic note taking about your favorite subject(s), itâs a good start to Spooky Week.
Okay but as someone who dated and married number 5, sometimes they can be pretty great (aside from the fact his late mom wouldnât let him touch her washing machine đ)

I saw a little girl dressed up as a bee keeper at trunk or treat AND SHE HAD HER GUINEA PIG IN A TINY PORTABLE CAGE AND IT WAS WEARING A BEE COSTUME.
I know I am hormonal and am in no way trying to make this about me, but a childhood friendâs wife passed away, and it just broke me, man. Heâs such a good, kind, sweet soul. They have a four year old. This sucks.
The moms versus the single friends birthday discourse shows the fundamental flaw in both sides of the argument: relationships are not meant to be transactional nor are they meant to be dissected on social media with that lens.
The simplest solution to this issue would be the mom texting the friend, saying hey we canât swing that but Iâm sending you a gift card to a local bar or restaurant or event thatâs happening on her birthday weekend. Not coming to social media and trying to villainize her friend.
