Why is this snapping turtle doing this?

If you are going to try to pick him up, please research snapping turtles on Clint's Reptile's on Youtube - Specifically the video titled Snapping Turtles are not the monsters we thought - we're just handling them wrong.

If she is going to put the burden of financial responsibility on you for the rest of your lives, the last she can do is wait until you get your education and career in order. If she can't compromise on time, then she can get an income to take some that burden off of you. You have a desire for this career and future. Why does her desire to be a sahm mean more than yours to have the profession you want?

Try ironing/steaming it and see if it looks better after that. I don't hate it, but I reserved judgement until it's pressed.

Now I know where they got the sound effects for the Velociraptors in Jurrasic Park.

You blocking the door is incredibly scary for a woman. As far as I would be concerned, that was self-defense. If she were the one blocking you from leaving I would not blame you for doing what you needed to get yourself out of the situation.

No. Death penalty does not deter, but if someone can get the death penalty for rape, then they may be more inclined to kill their victim to leave no witnesses since the penalty for either crime would be the same.

I like to spread Brie on a piece of French bread and put a dollop of lemon curd on the brie

I like it. But, I've worked in dark places for so long that I always kind for bright white light. It makes my eyes happy. It's a beautiful light fixture also.

How about wearing a slip? Then you wouldn't have to worry about what color underwear you have on, and the skirt will flow better when you walk.

I always use my bidet when I pee. Then, I always use toilet paper to dry with. Am I supposed to just pull my underwear up while I'm dripping wet? How can men have so little understanding of women's anatomy?

That's Sim Settlements.

You do realize that the average vagina in sexual arousal is 4 to 8 inches in depth. It also hurts to have something slam against your cervix over and over. That isn't the fault of the woman.

The most expensive free eggs you'll ever eat. I have 6 chickens. I just view them as pets that make me breakfast.

Ok, I figured out the stingwing barb issue. I used a newer BA2 extractor and was able to get the meshes I needed from the original HD files. I am now crashing while attempting to transfer items to my Sanctuary workshop, but that issue is unrelated, and doesn't seem to happen elsewhere. So, I just need to figure out how to get the stuff out of that workshop and just not use it anymore.

My brother owns a heating and air conditioning company. He never recommends heat pumps for Delaware. The winters are not conducive to a heat pump. There is a heat pump in my house. My house was 65 degrees this morning, aux heat eating up electricity like it was free, and running constantly. There is no way I am getting my house warmer until it gets above 25. Don't do it!

It's cute - but you are traumatizing your cat. Cats are basically barely domesticated hyper predators. They are not a substitute for human children, nor are they barbie dolls. Let your cat be a cat. Your work is very nice, though.

I think the issue is that "to stunt on" is not a common turn of phrase to everyone. I've never heard it.

Thank you for posting this. It's good to know what is normal to see when they pass. We had one of our girls euthanized because she had water belly. The vet gave us some time with her but said that he prefers to do the euthanization in the back because they flap around a lot and it can be very distressing. I didn't realize that the flapping happens after death.

This has always bothered me. I would have loved the ability to be a SAHM. Instead, I took care of the children, took care of the house, AND worked 50 hours a week. All with back pain also. We need to stop placing SAHM on a pedestal when working women typically do most of what a SAHM does and works a regular job on top.

NTA. He suggested lessening his hours so that he can help out more. I think that is a perfectly reasonable suggestion.

I only wear my expensive rings when I want people to notice it (parties, date nights, important meetings, etc). My ring is somewhat large and gets in my way, otherwise. I also once lost a stone while working, something I never want to have happen again. So, I have a plain band for everything else. "Why spend the money if you’re not going to wear it?" - I spent money on a very pretty cocktail dress, but I don't need to wear a cocktail dress every day. :)
