@NYTino24 There is something very soothing about that gif.

keikilove

@meri-mac I was just thinking the exact same thing! Thanks @NYTino24!

I just spent 5 minutes watching that, @meri-mac and @keikilove.

**Lurking**

Putting this here, since it seems they removed the PP removal request thread. I emailed TB asking them to remove it, and got this response.  I can't see whether or not it was removed because I hid it a long time ago.  Is there anyone who hasn't hidden it who can confirm?

"Hi shamrocandroll,

Thanks for reaching out to us. We appreciate your feedback and understand the sensitive nature of this discussion thread. 

Our moderators moved the PP thread last week, and I'm seeing that it is no longer listed under the TTGP board. You may need to refresh your browser by clearing cache and deleting cookies (ctrl+F5) to ensure your browser is pulling in the most up to date details.

Also lurking- @shamrocandroll I don’t see it!

Great job ladies and I’m glad you don’t have to see that ish anymore ❤️

tyrion_

Yes yes! Here’s a toast to the removal of the pp thread! 

prpl11butterfly

Also lurking 😘

I'm so happy to see that there was success with that request! Minor for the current community but a victory none the less!

This might be my imagination, and I know next to nothing about technology, but my app usually takes annoyingly long to load, and today it seems way quicker. So I’m going to pretend the crushing weight of the PP thread was weighing it down and now it’s freeee

inthewoods23

Now if only they would give us back pages 2 and beyond!

tyrion_

@inthewoods23 I’m sorry about Pinecone. I was dirty lurking on my TTCAL ladies in the IF thread and saw he was sick. I’m glad you’re handling it well though 💗

blackgirlmagic

@ssbl mine, in the app, takes forever to load. I really hate this app! 

keikilove

I’ve had a sneaking suspicion that since we first asked Admin to remove the post-partum thread someone on their team did actually try, and they accidentally ended up deleting all but the first page of TTGP. No clue if I’m right, but the timing seems to line up...

mvt2003

@keikilove you may be right! I wonder if no one has permissions to move things off of the secret deleted section that @inthewoods23 found before. That would explain why they haven’t put the pages back! 

inthewoods23

@mvt2003 I'm not so sure about that. I had to search for the "you know you're TTGP when" thread and was able to post a new comment. It's like they just unpublished the pages or something.

@tyrion_ thank you! Things are back to normal for me but not so much DH.

For those that don't lurk the IF thread or know the whole story, DH found a mass on Pinecone's jaw 2 weeks ago and it's suspected that it's some type of oral cancer which are very aggressive for hedgehogs. We've been giving him an anti-inflammatory pain med which did seem to help the swelling. In the last week we could see he wasn't eaten as well as he normally could due to the tumor being in the way and shifting his whole jaw over (he looked cute, but derpy to me) so he was losing weight quickly. He was still a fun, spunky little guy leading up to the injection to put him to sleep yesterday.

It sucks but we have lots of fond memories of him. Like that time he ran for president in 2016.

blackgirlmagic

@inthewoods23 I’m so sorry! Please take the time that you need to heal from this in personal life. Pets are just like family and I took a day off from work when we put our cat down and just cried all day. All of the Internet hugs to you! 

gingermama29

@inthewoods23 oh I'm so sorry. That's such a difficult and heartbreaking decision to make. So many hugs.

bluetickgal

@inthewoods23 so sorry! Sending hugs your way! 💜 I’m glad he didn’t suffer and you have so many fond memories to look back on! 

inthewoods23

@blackgirlmagic I thought I might need to and had brought my work laptop home in case I was in no shape to show my face today, but I think with DH being such a mess I had to be the opposite so I'm doing fine. Now, when the time comes that my 7 year old cat needs to be put down, it'll be a different story. She's still a dasher and in good health so hopefully that's not for a long time!

ziggymama06

@inthewoods23 I'm so sorry.  It's never easy and I'm glad you have such fond memories with him... what a cutie.  Sending hugs and ice cream ❤

mindyb2019

@inthewoods23 aww. I’m so sorry. Sending Lots of hugs your way ❤️❤️ Poor Pinecone he was such a cute little fella. it’s definitely never easy as there part of the family. I’m glad you have lots of good memories of him to think about. May your heart heal soon. 

bows22

Oh @mindyb2019 I didn’t realize you were back here. I’m so sorry ❤️

inthewoods23

Something in me decided to lurk the July BMB this morning and I see there's a thread about a FB group that gave me a good chuckle.

mvt2003

@inthewoods23 The number of people on BMBs who post tons of photos/identifying information and immediately ask to start a facebook group makes me nervous for the state of humanity. 

meri-mac

@inthewoods23 Thank your letting us know! I immediately went to go look. Love the sass and the Schitt's Creek gif. People are so...people-like

tyrion_

@mvt2003 OMG the lady that posted her entire wedding album. What if someone tracks her down and makes her into a skin lamp?! Come on, people! 

gingermama29

@tyrion_ whaaaaaaat? When did someone post an entire wedding album on TB?

mvt2003

@tyrion_ DUDE! I KNOW!!!! All I'm going to say is that some scary things can be done with search engines these days. I blocked out my face in my own wedding dress GTKY, and even profile pictures make me nervous! Doxxing is real. 

capnjackharkness

@inthewoods23 Sorry for your loss.  We will miss all the stories and adventures of pinecone!!!  

tyrion_

@gingermama29 I was lurking BMBs against my better judgement. 

mindyb2019

@bows22 thanks. Yes sadly I am back here 😢 I posted In the TTCAL. 

gladmamma

@inthewoods23 so sorry!!! Lil Pinecone looks like such a cutie! That's so tough. Glad you're feeling okay

mvt2003

Is it another freaking full moon? Two peggys before 10am? I cannot. 

mindyb2019

@mvt2003 I was thinking the same thing.. Nope no full moon today just a random Friday 😆 🥴

inthewoods23

What the F is going on today lol.

emeraldduchess

It's going to be this kind of day again, isn't it?

mvt2003

@emeraldduchess Too good not to reuse this one. 

capnjackharkness

YES!!!!    Who is EXCITED for today then?


May need to get a FRIEND ready!!!  

inthewoods23

I might have a new favorite Peggy line

Peggy: why did my temp drop? It should be rising if I conceived.

Idk maybe you haven't conceived??

Sounds like she expects to be a unicorn

emeraldduchess

@capnjackharkness oh...I am in a MOOD today. One more Peg is going to release the kracken.
