Ruby Tuesday! (sh.itjust.works)

Looking for feedback on what you all are wanting out of this community!

I really think this is what the solution can be boiled down to for a lot of people. The rat race just to survive (not even thrive) is killer on the mood, where you feel like you are headed towards existentially, and utterly depletes the energy.

Why even bother trying to pursue things we actually enjoy? Or find out what we do enjoy? Too tired from work. Don't want to leave the house again if I can help it. It costs so much to do anything. Honestly, if I didn't end up having some decent people to hang out with at work I wouldn't have anyone close by. It's ridiculous.

I've been noticing that posts I have attached photos to are no longer showing the pictures. Including the posts other people have made to the community I moderate.

Does this just happen over time? Are we supposed to use a third party site to link photos from so this doesn't happen?

Was it ever rude? Like, get going. Obviously need a wake up either way.

As others have mentioned the way you honk can be rude. And honking too quickly.

When I was quite a bit younger, The Mask freaked me right out. On top of the Goosebumps episode about a mask overtaking you, I straight up refused to put any on for the longest time. Still don't love them.

The start of the Goofy Movie, during Max's dream...those dark vibes hit me hard. Would wait in the bathroom until it was done.

The Ring was a big one because my "friend" called and did the whole "seven days..." thing. Before we had caller IDs. The same friend made me watch Darkness Falls, and I think I repressed it all because I remember nothing about it other than hating the whole experience.

Not much of a scary movie fan to this day. Go figure.

Hard Coat vs Soft Coat (sh.itjust.works)

What kind of coat does your schnauzer have?

Mine has the hard coat, which is the first time our schnauzer(s) have had a coat like that! I love the look and feel of it but because of the up-keep she actually sheds a decent amount if I'm not on top of hand-stripping, which I'm slowly learning.

My local groomer CAN hand strip but refuses to do it on my little one because, "she doesn't even bother on her terrier and it's only done on show dogs." Which annoyed me, so I'm doubling down on the technique myself and trying to avoid clipping it all and losing it.

I've read that the hard coat is the traditional coat of a schnauzer but a lot of the breed has been turned into soft coats due to the ease of clipping, shedding, etc. But the soft coat can get easily matted and curly without more brushing and maintenance.

Curious what everyone has and their thoughts!

Will be throwing out a random Ruby picture every Tuesday to try and get some more eyes on the community. If anyone wants to do something similar for a while, please do so! Bonus points if it's a silly name/weekday combo like Ruby Tuesday.

Was there a particular reason for getting a Schnauzer? Or was it just happenstance?

Welcome! (sh.itjust.works)

Welcome to the Mini Schnauzer community!

Figured I'd start by spamming my own Mini Schnauzer, our little Ruby!

I'm new to the moderator game, so bear with me. Lemmy seems like a pretty chill place compared to Reddit so I'll try it out with something straight-forward and dear to my heart.

I grew up with Miniature Schnauzers, among other types of dogs. In fact, our very first puppy was one! Jack. Followed by Jill, naturally. I'm sure you'll see them on here at some point! Even though they are no longer with me, they hold a special place in my heart.

As I got my own home established, my husband and I decided that another Mini Schnauzer would be a wonderful fit as our first together.

Ruby was the runt of the litter and is quite the timid, delicate flower; but we are of course smitten.

Excited to see all the photos and hear all the stories! Hopefully we can all also provide some insights to those thinking of getting one themselves and any issues people may be having with their stubborn little ones.

Yeah, I'm not sure I agree.

Definitely understand your point, but this is the internet after all. Will I be reprimanded if I use "fucking" or "shit" to really make a point I'm passionate about? Is it okay if the context is alright? Is it bad if I use 2 curse words but 1 is okay? Who's to say?

Context will be big. Straight up vulgar, hateful speech is already not allowed, so I don't think we need to add to it unnecessarily.
