I like “stab it, strangle it, pull out its guts, and toss it off a cliff” 🤣

Small suitcase or large cat? Cutie either way.

Yeah, saying migraine is “just a headache” is like saying a heart attack is “just a little chest pain”. It’s one of the most common chronic health problems, and yet it’s significantly mocked. So annoying.

Yep, my one grandma would do this, it was so irritating to go anywhere with her.

Yep. Like “You could achieve so much if only you put in a little effort”. 🗡️😵 Thanks for noticing how much effort I put in, I’ll be sure to try again in the future.

Yep, and it doesn’t help that so many people have a skewed idea of what the healthy weight for pets looks like. So many of my friends have been accused of starving their pets just because their pets aren’t fat. Like yes, you should be able to see a cat or dogs hips.

Exactly. Like I have to ignore a lot of pain constantly, but that’s cause I live with chronic pain 24/7/365. So if I want to do anything with my life I have to deal with it when it’s manageable. But when it passes my threshold I am out. Done, I need to rest, take a break, meds, nap, etc. And then I get shamed by people “for not being able to handle a little pain”, even though I’m in more pain every day than many people have ever been in.

I’ve done this about migraine. “Incurable neurological brain condition” gets lots of sympathy, migraine gets “oh boohoo, you have a “headache””.
