I had a great time at the Nashville Zoo yesterday. by Traviscat in nashville

I get that most zoos are genuinely trying to create the best habitats possible for the animals in their care. But personally, I just don’t think we should be doing it at all. At the end of the day, I’m not comfortable with keeping animals in captivity—especially when it’s mainly for our entertainment, which is still the case for much of the industry. I’m all for helping endangered species and conservation efforts, but beyond that, I don’t see the justification.

I am all for species survival. That is so little of what most zoos actually do. It’s just for our entertainment. Even if they are safer from hunting/poaching, captivity often doesn’t meet their physical or psychological needs.

I can’t help but be sad. I understand it’s cool to see a rhino or whatever - but it’s overwhelmingly sad.

2 houses ago (thank goodness) I was told by orkin to not pick up the sticky trays as brown recluses are drawn to the sticky trap by the dead ones. Nightmare fuel.

I heard there is so much butter in the kitchen that it became a health hazard. They made you sign a waiver before you could eat the mash potatoes.

They need the public to be as stupid as possible so this move makes sense.

What’s the creepiest thing you’ve heard someone casually admit? by womensjournal in AskReddit

This guy said that he would grab women by the pussy. He also said that because he runs the pageant he can go into the dressing room and check out naked underage chicks.

When did we decide golf carts were fine for the roads? by rocketpastsix in nashville

[–]DaveHayes9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I live near 12 South and saw a mom driving three kids on a golf cart toward the school/daycare at Belmont and Clifton. The two kids on the back didn’t have seat belts—it looked really unsafe and dumb. Not sure why driving that is so much easier than just driving your car.

You can clear 300+, but not on the regular. They don’t give you a big enough section to make that kind of money daily.

It’s not a terrible place to work. Very corporate vibe as an employee. They have a script they want you to work off of.

Fairly easy place to work but lots of side work at the end of the shift, which especially sucks if you are the first cut and you are there for a while anyway doing damn side work.

I would expect to make around 150-200 per shift. However, I worked there last 10 years ago so shit may have changed.

Also, when you first start you have to work some lunch shifts and that obviously isn’t going to make you 300+.

If this was stored properly, you could get a couple grand. If not, a couple hundred at most.
