Even if it does rust accidentally, can’t you just scrape or buff out the rust and then reseal/reseason it again and it’s fine?

Got it 🫡

I had the same thought. Us North Americans are not used to sacrificing ourselves for the betterment of the future generations.

I might be confused by your comment and not understanding it properly so excuse me if I’m just not understanding right.

Are you saying that all the school shooters in America did not actively plan to kill all of those children and/or teenagers?
School shooters took a gun to a school and started open firing on children who were no threat and never even had a chance to grow up and hurt anyone.

This guy planned it out, killing one adult who was responsible for the deaths of a lot of fellow Americans while he got richer and richer from their suffering and deaths.

My mother was a wonderful person, poor, and a boomer. She never had anything handed to her. We need to stop shitting on specific generations (it’s a distraction ) and target our hate towards the class divides between us instead.

You are very right. Looking back my comment was a bit ignorant. I remember learning now it can take a few exposures before someone has an allergic reaction to something, whether it’s an antibiotic or a cat or a fruit etc. It would be horrible to become attached to a pet and then have to give them back or rehome them because of allergies.

Most people are allergic to cat saliva, not the hair (some are allergic to the hair too though). If the cat was maintaining herself well, she was likely licking herself a lot, which could have contributed to your allergic reaction. There are sprays/washes you can buy to reduce the affect, and I think maybe even a specialized food (probably very expensive). But, I mean, that’s a lot for effort. If you had the cat for a few weeks and it was unbearable, it’s not worth you suffering. Allergies can be hell, they make you miserable. But in the future if you feel the pull to adopt or get a cat, the stuff I mentioned might help. Or even fostering, you might come upon a cat you get along with well allergy wise and can adopt it once living with it for a while and find a match. But there are other pets which are equally nice, rabbits, rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, chinchillas, dogs, ferrets. Or others alternatives like snakes iguanas tarantulas and so on.

It’s actually easy to tell whether you’ll have a reaction by going to the store or humane society and asking to hold them for 5 to 10 minutes.

And vomit!

I’m allergic to cats, but I developed an immunity to my own for the most part. When brush them I do it outside because that could trigger symptoms if it’s done indoors. but for the most part after I adopt a new cat it settles down after a while. It sucks though in the mean time, I don’t blame anyone for not being able to put up with the exposure period. Also some cats trigger worse symptoms and some don’t! I go to different friend’s homes and their cats don’t make me break out in hives but a a few other friend’s cats cause issues right always, I have to take an antihistamine when I go over.

Where I live, it’s currently $4Cdn for a loaf of basic white Wonder bread, it’s $8.50Cdn for a stick of salted butter, and $5.50Cdn for a pack of 22 slices of processed cheese (not the thick slice type). My country is currently going through a bit of a cost of living crisis because shelter, heating, food costs are becoming insane. How much are those things where you live? I think it’s interesting the differences based on where we all are. 1$ for an entire grilled cheese sandwich in Canada would be considered an incredible deal for takeout food pricing.
