Casual Conversation
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 (updated 01/22/25)
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
- Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
- Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
- Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

This little asshole. He's way too smart for his own good!
Woof! Mine also figured out a 3 piece “patio” glass sliding door. Even with the middle pane blocking the others, he uses his nose to slide the others open. Little houdinis haha :)
I'm relieved to hear they're back home safely :)
For your own peace of mind even, try finding more ways to fully secure the doors
That's 100% my plan. I'm going to get a bar or something to put behind the sliding door so it can't be opened when I'm gone.
As long as the door can be opened/broken in case of fire (or other internal disaster, e.g. toxic fumes) or there's some other egress nearby. Please don't create a trap.
Whew! That was stressful to read. Awhile back I looked at my window and saw my dog lying my in yard, out of her fence, I panicked even though she was safe then just knowing that she had been out running around. Btw you can buy a patio door security bar or just cut a board to size.
Dogs can be such tricky little devils! I'm glad your dog just found a new spot to chill instead of running away.
And yeah, definitely going to buy one of those security bars or something tomorrow.
