Hello FB cat friends! My senior cat recently crossed the rainbow bridge and I miss having a kitty friend. I’m looking into possibly adopting a bonded pair this time around. I’ve only had experience with being a 1-cat parent but have lived with roommates who had another kitty in the house. Is having two easier/harder than just 1? How do you deal with feeding schedules, quality time, and them not tearing up your house?

There’s a memorial service for a friend’s parent in a church tomorrow. I feel really guilty, but I don’t feel comfortable being inside with a large group of people. There’s an outdoor burial after. What’s the play? Am I overthinking it?

My boyfriend’s breath stinks and I’m not sure how to say it. I know that most commenters will say I just need to rip the bandaid off and do it, but I’m really bad at approaching conversations that may spur conflict or awkwardness. I typically say nothing at all which is even worse. Can someone help me change my mindset as to handling situations like this? I know what to do and say, I just can’t bring myself to actually do it. I’m afraid of the awkwardness, afraid of making him self conscious,

I think leadership in my company is just gearing up to sell:
1. When I try to refactor, organize, or address tech debt in the code, I get heavy pushback with no real justification (they just say “keep it simple”) and no stated initiatives to fix said debt. Thanks, I guess I’m just an impetuous child.
2. Marketing wants “more logos” to attract a 2nd round of investment.
3. No long-term vision for our “product.”
4. Way more personnel,no innovation
I feel undervalued, yes, but this is pretty sus

Looking for advice. I’ve been struggling to focus through the whole WFH thing but my dad died unexpectedly a few weeks ago and since then my motivation is at rock bottom. I’ve always been an overachiever but now can’t find any real reason to care about my job at all. Now that I’m out of the allotted bereavement time I feel like there’s an expectation to be normal again, but I don’t know how to explain that my world stopped three weeks ago and I don’t know how to go back to who I was before?

F here. I’ve had trouble in relationships because idk how to fight healthily. I’ve been going to therapy for it but I’m struggling atm because my boyfriend who I love so much, I’ve brought to his breaking point with my anxiety fueled approach. I don’t blame him.

When did search engine optimization become so complicated? It used to be so easy—you just had to get your site on Google and Bing and people would find it. Now there are things called “social media marketing” and “tiktok marketing” that seem like they require a whole team of professionals and a budget in the hundreds of thousands of dollars! What happens when small businesses can’t afford those kinds of things?

Whenever I got promoted to digital ACD a few years ago, I noticed my pay was much lower than I expected for the market I’m in, hard to find skillsets, performance, and visibility I’ve brought to the agency. I’ve brought this up a few times and was told HR would do research into salary equity, but the convo always fades. I put my foot down with my GCD, and she supports me, but I would like to come to the table with my own research. Where should I be looking for accuracy?
