  • Here you can appeal it with the city codes department. Read through your codes 8 times and find anything that can help you. For me it was the word “cultivated”. The local codes stated the lawn could not have “non-cultivated” grass/weeds/flowers/whatever over 10" tall (it’s early, I can’t remember the exact verbiage). So in the process of converting my lawn to native grasses and flowers, I’ve just been documenting everything. Now when my neighbor that mows his lawn 3 times a week (no exaggeration) calls in on me this spring; I can show the codes department “no, this is all intentionally and purposely cultivated this way with native plants, and I have the receipts to prove it”.

    We’ll see how it goes.

    I’ve watched my best friend with this go from getting told “We can’t do a hysterectomy, you might want to have kids!” (despite protests to the contrary) to “well, we can’t be sure you have it without invasive surgery” to “you’re almost menopause age, it’ll go away then”.

    I’m furious for her, it’s been tough to watch at times.













  • My mom told me she believed Paxton had been locked in the house for 3 months. With a huge bag of cat food and a dripping faucet.

    I thought it was weird one of the only things I found in my house when I moved in (that wasn’t obviously trash) was a half eaten bag of cat food. Then I found this sweet(ish) girl in the attic when I was crawling around looking for leaks.

    I assume the previous tenant left her (and 2 others outside that I was able to re-home). She’s definitely a broken cat. She’ll take a couple pets and then shred your arm. But it’s been almost a year and she gets more comfortable every day.


  • They’re going to go back later and edit all their replies to make it look like you are being combative and they are just asking polite questions. It’s some weird gaslighting trend. Check back on the thread tomorrow, all watson’s replies will either be deleted or edited.
