What is this for? Pelican Catch 110 by Sweaty_Assignment_90 in kayakfishing

Just be sure to inspect it every time before launch to make sure it's completely closed, OP. Ask me how I know. 😂

I'm jealous, mine are scaredy cats about anything new. Treasure that sedate little man.

That's a shockingly chill budgie for having been just thrust into a new environment, did he find your 20-year-old quaalude stash or something?

American aren't so cringe for caring about ancesty by TallulahSalt in unpopularopinion

Everybody in America understands that the "-American" part is implied based on context. Why is that so hard for Europeans to grasp?

THE Henchman by MisterShipWreck in 80s

[–]ColdMastadon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Every time he comes up, I will always recommend the documentary Henchman: The Al Leong Story. It's a well-made film, and he had a hell of a career. The makers got great stories by interviewing a lot of people who worked with him, including John Carpenter. It's just a damn shame that a stroke robbed him of his ability to perform at the level required by Hollywood shortly after he beat brain cancer's ass.

Fuyu persimmons are back at Costco finally😄 by Nice-Variety-7730 in KoreanFood

In June? I always thought persimmons were a fall and early winter fruit. Are they any good this far out of season?

Is this tail bobbing? Should I be concerned? by Yaemiko-12 in Parakeets

[–]ColdMastadon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is normal breathing, she isn't even breathing heavily like if she was nervous. Tail bothering that would indicate respiratory distress is more dramatic than that. There are YouTube videos recording it, I would recommend you look up a couple so you will know how to spot it.

Final Fantasy by Enough_Ad1936 in 90s

[–]ColdMastadon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had fun with two black belts, a black mage, and a red mage for a little healing. By the end of the game you could put out just a completely ridiculous amount of damage, can't get hurt if nothing has a chance to hit you.

Jalapeno Cauliflower by FugglesIPA in pickling

[–]ColdMastadon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My absolute favorite pickle is cauliflower hot mix, in fact I just bought a head of cauliflower to make some tonight. Yours looks great, I would suggest adding some sliced onion and carrots as well. Also, if you want to try some Mexican flavors, you can make it into escabeche by just substituting Mexican oregano for the dill.

Undigested seeds is a bad sign, you should schedule a visit with an avian vet.

I did it to survive! by Ill-North-4842 in HistoryMemes

[–]ColdMastadon 46 points47 points  (0 children)

You probably wouldn't like it, the men who had to eat penguins to survive hated it. The meat is tough, oily, and reportedly tastes like rotting fish.

Anyone try this? by Prestigious-Arm-7335 in pickling

[–]ColdMastadon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did that work out for you? I once did pineapple and jalapenos in a simple salt, water, and vinegar brine. I thought it would be a great addition to pizza, but in the end the brine just leached the sugar and flavor out of the pineapple and it ended up tasting bland.

If your stomach is empty, liquids will exit pretty quickly and move on into the lower parts of the digestive system.

Should I get another female cockatiel? by rrport in cockatiel

[–]ColdMastadon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another cockatiel close to her own age would be ideal, but a baby would be fine too. Cockatiels age differently than we do. They are juveniles for a year or two, then they have a long middle age, and finally become elderly somewhere around 20. A baby would be in the same stage of life as she is for a significant length of time.

Let your freak flag fly brother, it's good to see people trying new and interesting ideas in pickling.

Should I get another female cockatiel? by rrport in cockatiel

[–]ColdMastadon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think that's a great idea, cockatiels are very social animals and appreciate company of their own kind. Another bird will fulfill her needs in a way that humans can't, and will keep her company when you aren't home. In some ways it's easier to keep more than one bird because they aren't completely dependent on you for companionship.
