Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Said goodbye to my dog tonight. I hope there are hot peppers to steal and potatoes to dig up wherever he is now. (lemmy.world)

I've had dogs as pets my entire 44 years on this earth. It never gets easier to say goodbye to them. Earlier this year we had to get our elderly pup Gertie put down peacefully and it was just as painful as when I was 6 and had to deal with our dog Sam having been hit by a car.

I hope you're doing ok and can move on after this. Solidarity.
