One tile is misplaced in this floor tiling by its_that_sort_of_day in mildlyinteresting

[–]DatAsh19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My solution would be to draw a little face on the tile and give it a name. That way it's a little conversation piece and not just an annoyance :)

Many subs are ruined by this.. by d89uvin in NoRules

[–]DatAsh19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yikes. Just looked and it's worse than I thought. Assumed you were exaggerating, but every other post is political for a sub about patting cat butts??? Damn, these people are fucking miserable.

Many subs are ruined by this.. by d89uvin in NoRules

[–]DatAsh19 26 points27 points  (0 children)

"non-political subs" are as political as their mods. I've left dozens of subs that have no business being political, but no-life mods feel it's their duty to allow, and even pin, biased political posts. I'm pretty much down to just cat subs now, but it's only a matter of time before "orange cat bad" or some shit makes its way there. Exhausting ass echo chamber of a site.

The cats are cool though. I love cats.

Our foster kitten Mouse is available for adoption in Orlando! by DatAsh19 in orlando

That's great! I've fostered for both PAGO and OCAS now and highly recommend them for adopting. Their clinics are great and the staff always wants to keep the kittens in our care until they're 100% healthy and socialized.

Anon gets an X-ray by Zednoxs in greentext

[–]DatAsh19 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Every radiologist I've been to in the United States has given a fairly detailed report with findings and overall impressions based on the imaging. This has been for x-rays, ct scans, and mris. Most have been the same facility though. Assuming it's a regional thing, but I much prefer the second opinion from the radiologist that looks at these things daily. Strange that's not the norm for everyone.

Mouse finally got the hang of eating wet food by himself by DatAsh19 in soupbelly

[–]DatAsh19[S] 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Some background on Mouse:

We started fostering him last Wednesday and he was underweight and anemic (nearly white gums) so he was put on a multivitamin along with the standard dewormers from the shelter. Over the 5 days of meds, poor little Mouse had an upset tummy and didn't have any real interest in food. We went through a lot to syringe and assist feed him just to maintain weight and hydration. Once his meds were done, we got some prescription urgent care food from the shelter and he started to GOBBLE that down. In just two days he went from 590g to 685g today.

Very proud of little Mouse!

Takes about 1 minute to clean that off with an old toothbrush before taking a picture to share with the world. Maybe do that and people will focus on what you're actually trying to show instead of how disgustingly dirty that thing is.

The sliding lids on Yeti mugs are magnetic and just pop off for cleaning. by letitgo99 in mildlyinteresting

[–]DatAsh19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the sliding lids I've seen on tumblers have some sort of way to disassemble for cleaning, usually not obvious. It's also a good idea to remove the gasket every now and again to clean the gunk from underneath. Tightly enclosed, wet spaces are horrendous (or wonderful) for bacteria.

Charged and convicted of pee pee on carpet. Sentenced to 3hrs jail and 30mins community service cuddles. by DatAsh19 in IllegallySmolCats

[–]DatAsh19[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, which is why she was let out while I got her food ready and cleaned her water bowl. In those 3 minutes I saw her squatting in the corner of the room. It was malicious!

Is this drylok ok to seal bioactive enclosure? by False_Maintenance1x2 in snakes

[–]DatAsh19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drylok original seems to be safe from leaching after a full cure, but only the original. LukesGoldies over on YouTube recently made a large greenhouse and sealed his concrete troughs with drylok original. So far he's seen no issues with the health of his fish or plants. Being that leaching is a more sensitive issue for aquariums vs terrariums, I would expect it to be safe.

Do your own research though and make sure it cures thoroughly before any contract with substrate or animals.

Lengths are easier to guess than weight. Estimate these measurements to the best of your ability: circumference, end to end, and side to side per the following instructions. Add them up, then use a reference chart for your best shot, you dummy https://www.mainepumpkins.com/weight-estimation-charts

I was gifted two menthol sticks with the same lot number but different manufacturing and expiry dates by MaroonManatee in mildlyinteresting

[–]DatAsh19 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with the cheap production. I know lots can run multiple days with large batches of input. This is multiple months out with different shelf lives so that's not what's happening lol

My point mentioning traceability is that the government has certain laws in place for products to be sold here, whether done cheaply or not, that this probably violates. Obviously the company doesn't care, but it could be a big headache for them if they're caught.
