one of the funniest things i've ever witnessed happened when me and my friends were driving back from a party with some random guy that we absorbed into our group over the course of the night. my friend, who was trans, was in the backseat talking to him, absolutely shitfaced. it was just like normal drunk person conversation until she asked him "do you like girls" and he said yes, and then she lowered her voice and said "do you like girls.. with secrets?"
“Oh coyotes aren’t so cute when they’re eating small dogs and cats.” You expect me to hate the coyote and not you if you let your venerable pets outside unsupervised? The coyote is doing what is in its nature, we encroached upon its space and it’s going for an available food source. Your cat or dog does not belong outside in an unfenced, unprotected, unsafe area without human supervision.
No, cats don't NEED to get out. But if you want your cat to have outside time, you can leash train them so that they can explore safely while supervised. There are more dangers to a cat outdoors than just coyotes. There are cars, toxic plants, parasites and disease, and awful humans that would love to hurt and kill your cat. Cats are also a destructive invasive species that have caused the decline and extinction of some native animals. Cats don't need to free roam any more than dogs do. That's misinformation perpetuated by the myth that cats are "easy" pets that "just take care of themselves." Proper cat ownership means keeping them inside and supervising outdoor time!
there r so many emojis i always stumble across something like 🗜 and i think who the HELL would ever use this emoji. and then i think abt some guy who probably works w those things all the time n hes so happy he can use this emoji. and im happy for him
My dad has started using them regularly in conversations to make the underrepresented emojis feel included, which is very cute in theory, but it means I get texts like:
Anyways this is the only correct way to use emojis have a very 🪔 day
reminds me of this interaction I had with my parents
they were in the same room and apparently when they got my explanation text my dad threw his phone down and said “how the FUCK does she expect me to know that”
it's genuinely bullshit that refusal is on a weekly basis (ppl should def submit support requests saying as much if you agree) but there's a toggle in the dashboard preferences menu (on the android app) for at least a temporary opt out
HOT TIP: if you need enrichment to stave off diseases of the mind but don't have any puzzles you can just eat a bunch of pistachios and then sort thru the shell pile to find matching halves and superglue them back together
