if you or someone you love has a problem, don't wait to reach out

One of the items under point 3, on page 3:

Amends the Military Selective Service Act to require the registration of women for Selective Service.

Or as a commenter elsewhere said: WNBA hopefuls won't be the only women registering for the draft any more.

42 year old white male shoots up waterpark in the same county as the HS shooting a few years ago where the parents got time.

Father murders the mother in front of a 7 y/o girl and then commits suicide. I'll be pretty easy on this one since the gravity of the situation. What was my immediate thoughts? No ‘thats fricked' doesn't count but was a thought.

i agree with the they should have just shot it

/r/likeus is a Subreddit for posting pictures and videos of animals behaving in human ways. As you can imagine, this can often lead to a level of anthropomorphizing. Occasionally people will disagree on whether a post truly belongs in the sub. Take this post, where a cat is given a kitten after losing hers, and seemingly begins to cry.

Objections raised largely centered around the scientific consensus that cats can't "cry" as an emotional response, and the cat in the video likely just has an eye infection or dry eyes from anesthetic. However, OP (a mod of the sub) is ready to argue with everyone who disagrees. It's unclear how many of the removed responses are from OP removing them.

"My goal is to make these rare and controversial cases of animals crying emotional tears better known."

An argument over the meaning of physical responses in animals

For added drama, it turns out that OP's post history is filled with videos of animals crying, and arguments for why it's real.

it's complicated

I think my dream home would have a couple cats living in it calling it home before me that were originally off the streets. Sound s like some Oliver & Company All Dogs Go to Heaven cartoon plot twist but thats kinda cool neat sounding to me.

Thanos freinds.

Hello :)

I'm not new to EDSF - for years, I have viewed the site, reading posts for advice and support - but I have never posted. To be honest, sharing my ED journey is embarrassing.

I live in England, in the countryside, with my mum and dad. Before I struggled with my mental health, I was a high-achiever and a perfectionist. I attended a selective all-girls school, played musical instruments, acted, participated in orchestras, volunteered and was in the top team for every sport. I worked 24/7; education was my life. I had ambitions and aspirations. I was determined and resilient to reach them. Typical story - a perfectionist struggles with mental health… My life began to fall apart in 2021. First, I developed anxiety, then, OCD and depression and lastly, my ED.

I have Binge Eating Disorder. I will not lie, writing that is humiliating and mortifying. I am so ashamed. Pre-ED, I was naturally underweight and had no interest in food - I ate healthily, skipped meals and hated junk food. In 2022, I had urges to eat food I did not want, then eating when I was anxious/stressed/depressed became a habit. The binges started small and grew. I gained a lot of weight and felt suicidal because of my body. I began therapy to recover from Binge Eating Disorder. I learnt to control myself around food 60% of the time, the other 40%, I binged. Thankfully, I over-exercised, so I managed to lose weight. I was proud of my body and the happiest I'd ever been in my life. I was confident, determined and 1000x better than the ‘normal' me. Then, my life began to fall apart again. Long-story-short, I was incorrectly diagnosed with Anorexia (I binged weekly on 10,000+ calories and had binge urges everyday) and forced into recovery. A lot happened. It was traumatic and the medical professionals and CAMHS were AWFUL. They made me gain weight without providing any therapy or even advice/support. CAMHS think eating disorders are weight disorders and do not care about what you are struggling with mentally. They encouraged me to binge (I had BED!) and told me to eat junk food. I lost my willpower and control over food that I had learnt in BED therapy, I lost my motivation and I began binging more. Now, I binge every single day, all day. I do nothing else. I have at least 5,000 calories each day, up to 25,000. I have gained 5st in less than 3 months. I can't exercise, I can barely walk up the stairs, my mum helps me to shower, I look disgusting and unrecognisable, I'm uncomfortable 24/7 and I pray each night that I won't wake up the next day. I attempted suicide because I hate this body. My body is ruined - my teeth, hair, skin etc, everything is ruined. I'm having private therapy to help my Binge Eating Disorder but it's not working. Anorexia recovery and all the people who forced me to gain weight have destroyed my willpower/determination and now, I have zero control over food.

I want my body back. I wish I had hidden my weight from everyone or faked weight gain and recovery. Now, I'm just waiting for my life to end.
