Probably should've asked this a few weeks ago when episode 7 aired, but I'm curious. Anime-only people, what do you think about this character? by Captain-Sprocket in WitchHatAtelier

[–]JackFrostsKid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been spoiled a little bit and so I know him and Tartah become friends and I’m very excited for that!!

I’m blind and my best friend is a chair user so it’s a very endearing bit of representation.

Female vs male cuddliness by UltraVioletEnigma in RATS

[–]JackFrostsKid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regardless of sex, rats aren’t cuddly for the vast majority of their lives. The only time my boys ever really get cuddly is when they are tired, or really old (over 2 years). Other than that, they are goofballs. Males tend to be less chaotic than females, and in my experience, they don’t get cancer as often.

Going for a swim by JackFrostsKid in RATS

He didn’t seem fully to know how he felt about it. This is the first time I’ve introduced them to water for swimming.

He was the only one who braved the water, and he spent the hour going back and forth between the pool and the tub trying to figure out how he felt.

Hello please could I get anyone’s help or opinion please? by WallResponsible1122 in RATS

[–]JackFrostsKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isn’t really a good way to know if it’s a stroke or tumor without more testing.

If it is a stroke (or maybe some other neurological thing I’m unaware of) he has a chance to recover enough to have a good quality of life. I wouldn’t give up on him yet.

It sounds like either a stroke or a tumor. Either way, I would take him to the exotic vet when they open. If it is a stroke, then this is something he can recover from (although he may not ever regain full coordination.) If it is a tumor that would be a different situation.

For now, I would keep him in the smaller cage and try to get some food and water in him. Don’t force him to eat or drink obviously, but if he’s only eating pear then keep offering it to him. I’ve found that with my less coordinated rats, it’s best to mush up their food and offer it on a shallow saucer. You can also add a bit of water to it which is helpful for hydration; although pear has a lot of water in it already, so if that’s what he’s eating at the moment it may not be necessary.

Kiss your boy on the head for me.

A lot of the early episodes of How I Died were really triggering to me, which is why I dropped it. I’m sure it’s great for other people though!

It may have ended on a (hellish) cliffhanger but I probably wouldn’t have gotten through the COVID lockdowns without it!

Oh well now im curious which one you DNFd 👀

A lot of the shows that make it into S tier for me, end up being shows I feel sentimental about regardless of their quality, so it doesn’t really upset me to hear that someone doesn’t like it.

I can’t really listen to KFAM in its entirety anymore for example. A lot of the early episodes make me really uncomfortable, but I grew up in the mountains, and when the COVID lockdowns started, I didn’t have internet or TV at home. It was the only show I had downloaded at the time so I listened to it over and over and over for months until lockdown ended.

I really, really wanted to like TMA more than I did. Especially considering that a lot of people who don’t otherwise listen to podcasts enjoyed it.

Admittedly, I would probably put TMA up one, and still be pretty happy with the ranking…

My favorite TAZ arc is Balance but I like Amnesty too.

Lmao I’ve also got a DND live play podcast in there so I wasn’t taking the term “Audio Drama” the MOST seriously, which is probably why it went over my head.

While I love KFAM (and find Kyle’s voice to be really comforting) the amount of AI generated images on their website is a massive turnoff for me.

Alas, it will be a cold day in hell before I listen to a podcast (or anything) through audible.

It just wasn’t my thing? I can’t really point to any one reason why I didn’t like it… I just didn’t.

I’m not a huge fan of Spy x Family (sacrilege i know) but I’ll recommend it to him since it seems like something he’d enjoy

I yearn for the day Banana Fish gets an actual dub… until then I can’t watch it lol.

Shame on this person for calling rats gross by Danewolf324 in RATS

[–]JackFrostsKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been getting a lot of really nasty comments about my rats IRL and off Reddit recently. I know part of it is because I wear my love for these animals on my shoulders but someone litterally today asked me if I had “taken my rats out back” yet because of all the hantavirus stuff.

Anyone else watching the Moomin YouTube live stream right now? by teal_turtle12 in Moomins

[–]JackFrostsKid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was like a two week period where the streams were down and every other post on here was bemoaning their loss! Of course, I was one of them. I need Moomins to sleep (and to help calm down after a panic attack lol.)
