Casual Conversation
Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

This meme is my favourite of 2026 so far. Makes me laugh every time.

Lunch mates some days ago.

She has grown up in the era of me lying down all the time and has grown into lounging much the same.
A couple of days ago we had to take our oldest dog to the emergency vet about an hour from home. She seemed to be in lots of pain from her arthritis and I was afraid of what they would tell us. They did a few tests and said basically that we should have been giving her some daily medicine to help with inflammation. We left with the pills in hand and now the old girl is walking around much better and is seeming more like her old self again. While we're upset at our regular vet for not doing this stuff sooner, we're happy that it's done now.
