First thing they teach first responders: don't become a second victim, it helps nobody. Look at your big-ass self, you think cat can save you? And if cat goes running for help, who's gonna listen? Maybe they'd give cat some salmon but you'll still drown.
Cat loves you and will sit with you while you finish drowning. Then when you get your next life you can go together for some salmon. You still have some lives left, right?
Although a few vowel sounds are off, your words are understandable and those clipped consonants of the RP accent are helping with that. But there's a singsong quality to your speaking (at least in this reading) that seems to not only cause you to sometimes accent the wrong part of a word, it also overrides the usual emphasis on the most important words. Talk to your coach about how to break up the rhythm, lean on the words that make your point, and whip past the rest, while also using higher and lower notes 🎶 for expression. In English, a word can be spoken with different tones depending on how it's being used in the sentence.
You can look at a cat and do the Slow Blink a few times to say "I'm not threatening you, nor threatened by you." Which is the closest cats get to "let's be friends."
I'm all for free travel across borders, and simpler ways to support legal emigration/change of citizenship. But I'm highly suspicious of any whole-world government. Because even if it's founded in decency and humanitarianism, there will come the inevitable day when it falls into the hands of the corrupt, who will exploit, undermine, and finally countermand all its wholesome measures. And there will be nowhere to run.
Article says the camp has been there for a century, and the water washed away the cabin while the girls were asleep... Sounds like climate change to me. Even though the building is surely newer, they'd know where the river had risen to in the past.
Always keep at least three days worth of drinking water in your home, a gallon per person per day. So many emergency situations, large or small, can make water unavailable or unsafe. Having filters is also helpful, but you need actual full bottles on hand. For less plastic, go with the big bottles, you can drink from cups. And OP could have washed pits and crotch at least using some of his drinking water, since it's not citywide so he could buy more on the way home from coffee.
Honestly, it's a huge unexpected step from "meet for coffee" to "come shower in my apartment." Or depending how you worded it, you could sound like you're just trying to bail on getting together. Just because you're not lying it's not necessarily believable, especially in a dating context. Maybe try again when you're done dealing with this and clean again.
Also some people are not wanting to draw any attention to themselves. And others realized wildfires can happen in regular neighborhoods, not just in the wild.
As with any pads you'd carry a spare or two, in case the first one gets soaked through, and that's also why a waterproof outer liner is important. Depending where you are, you could probably wash/rinse it and then roll it up in the carry pouch until you go home. Or even without washing it although that's not ideal.
Is working to end menstruation stigma with education (for men and boys as well as girls and women), end period poverty by distributing pads and liners and underwear and also teaching how to make replacements, and give girls/women back the days they lose from school/work due to their periods.
Edit: they have now also started to distribute menstrual cups, which can be used with a pad as backup, for heavier days.
