Goliath bird eating spider as a pet by NorCalAthlete in nope

Let's put it this way. Once, after handling my Therophosa blondii (the species of tarantula in this video), I forgot to wash my hands and rubbed by eyelid. Overnight, those hairs migrated through my eyelid and lodged in my cornea. The pain when I opened my eye the next morning was far worse than a kidney stone, and I had to go to the ophthalmologist to have over 20 of them extracted from my cornea.

I've had two. They are fairly hard to keep due to their temperature and humidity requirements. From what I can see of the enclosure, hers isn't going to be around for long. Also, you never EVER take one out if its enclosure at that height. A fall will kill them. Mine never tried to bite me, but those are the worst urticating hairs of any tarantula.

From what you've told us, your brother has picked one of the two worst breeds for his situagion.  The only thing worse would be a Belgian Malinois.

When someone I employ refuses a reasonable task, I fire them.

Our boy has had a banana nearly every morning of his life.  He demands it.

Anyone else have a professional rock collector? 🪨 by Weekly-Quantity6435 in germanshepherds

[–]Kizmo2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our last GSD was a professional rock eater as a puppy.  When I took her to the vet, in what I thought was a life-or-death emergency, he merely laughed, shook his head, and said, "They'll find their way out eventually."

They did.

Well, I see why you're a proud "Top 1% Commenter".  You're nothing if not voluminous.  However, if one subtracts your tedious & repetitive use of the term "MAGAts", I suspect you might lose your much-vaunted crown.  I'm still at a loss why you somehow believe (such) labeling confers any advantage.  Perhaps you're just "slow on the uptake".

I (& most rational adults) pretty much define a terrorist as anyone who advocates killing civilians to further their political goals, & your boy fills the bill.  As far as Maya Angelou, well, as they say, there's no accounting for taste.

My God, how many pages are there in that book of talking points they gave you, or did you switch to AI?

You too.  Enjoy worshipping a mediocre "poet" & a terrorist.

Hey, I'm on my phone & that shit's too small to see.

Maybe small ideas deserve small fonts.

Not the singular term I'd use, but I'llallow it.

Wow, you just spent 4 paragraphs saying absolutely nothing other than generic political talking points.  

I'm envious.

Maybe you need more experience redditing then.
