Grow your tooth into an eye while it’s implanted in your cheek. Totally normal

I’m currently in “do a week’s worth of work in 2 days” hyperfocus. Building up my nest egg for the next time my brain says I need to spend several days spending less than 15 minutes on actual work.

“The typical female pet owner spends more time actively engaged with her pet than she spends in face-to-face contact with friends of her own species.”

And?

Why is rice being stockpiled but not cycled out?

Actually not joking, six or seven years ago I stopped apologizing for "delayed replies. Maybe if it’s really heinous, but if it’s a week or less (or I was on vacation!), it’s “thank you for your patience!” I’m not going to apologize for not busting my ass above my pay grade. Also how many things at most jobs actually need an immediate reply?

I got a 5/5 on my annual review this year, I’m good at my job, but I’m not going to apologize for not replying to every email every day when I’m actually trying to get work done.

Look at those l o o o o o o o o o n g whiskers

Yep, which is why of you ever want to strip and re-season cast iron, you use a lye bath with some electrolysis magic. Do that once and you’ll see why back in the lye soap days, you want weren’t supposed to wash them.

It’s not really a blogging platform, it’s a content management system.

They leave them or worse, bury them. Then someone steps on one and gets an ER trip.

What if they had sex with 1000 people willingly and enjoyed it, but weren’t in love with all of those people?

Let us see them bean sprouts

Damn though like, we don’t need to denigrate people in food service. Some people do it because they didn’t have other options, some people actually like it and are good at it. And either way I bet that teacher wouldn’t like if there wasn’t anyone who’s worked in food service.

Yeah definitely, scruffing itself is fine! But like you said, you gotta get more skin in it, and you need to support the rest of their body. It’s a good way to get them to stop wiggling for whatever you need to do, but it’s not a way to carry them.

• A common misconception is that ferrets are nocturnal. They’re not, but they’re also not diurnal–they sleep 20 hours a day. They wake up throughout the day to eat, shit, and wreak havoc and then spend the rest of it passed the fuck out.
• ferret comes from the Latin “little thief” which makes a lot of sense if you’ve ever spent time with one. They love to steal things and hide them in a stash pile–mine tore a hole in the fabric on the bottom of the couch to put their treasures deep in the underbelly. They favorite things to hide are whatever you really need at that moment. Don’t leave your keys laying around.
• the noise a ferret makes when they’re excited is called dooking.
• Ferrets bite HARD. It’s not because they are mean, but because they themselves have extremely thick skin and biting is a part of play. If a ferret bites you, you have to yelp and stop playing with them–that’s what their peers do when they bite too hard. This is easier to train when they’re kits.
• A lot of ferrets are pretty easy to litter train because they naturally back up into a corner to poop. That said, sometimes they will tell you which corner the litter box needs to be moved to.

I have so many more good god.

This idiot is very cute.

That said, I’m going to be a killjoy and say for people who interact or want to interact with ferrets, please know:

1. They will eat anything they’re not supposed to, and many of them love styrofoam. It’s very bad for them and can cause intestinal blockages. Biodegradable packing peanuts are a safe way to watch them go nuts in foam.
2. It’s not safe to hold them up by their scruff like that. You can use it to immobilize them for things like nail clipping or meds and it’s really effective. But you should never use the scruff to support their body weight like that. Their moms do that when they’re kits, but it’s not safe for a full-sized one.

Some other ferret facts:

• If a female ferret goes into heat, unlike a lot of animals she will not come out of it until she gets pregnant. If she doesn’t, the stress of being in heat will eventually kill her. She’ll die from being too horny.
• a group of ferrets is called a business
• Rudy Giuliani had an infamous meltdown about ferrets back when he was mayor of New York.
• Ferrets are sometimes employed as electrician’s assistants to run wire through inaccessible spaces.

I like ferrets.

You beat me to it, just from a TV show.

But I bet Nancy in HR thinks it’s satanic and is reacting as such.

Beautiful cat with homophobia 😻😻😻

30 miles in distance, which doesn’t seem like much. But very different culturally. Where I grew up often didn’t feel like home even when I lived there. It definitely doesn’t now.
