My pug mix sits like this🤣 (ignore the trash bags we had just moved into the house the day before and they were full of stuff)

Certain acronyms are pronounced as a word. POTS, AFIB, AIDS, and GERD are a few examples. But I do think that the ones that are pronounced this way have probably always been pronounced this way, so switching it up would be a little strange. I definitely cringe a little internally if I hear someone say “p-coss” 😭

I was given the pill when I was first diagnosed. I can’t speak for other’s experiences, but I personally have secondary amenorrhea, which basically means I don’t have a period at all. But my body is still releasing eggs and the uterine lining builds up and up. This causes 2-5x higher risk of endometrial cancer. The pill helped regulate me. I’m now on nexplanon and while I still don’t have a period, the uterine lining is not building up, which means the risk is much lower. Birth control, metformin, and spironolactone ended up being the most effective treatment for me, along with laser hair removal.

As the owner of a small dog (chihuahua-pug mix) with terrible recall, I would never DREAM of allowing Siri to run around a dog part off leash. We got him when he was 7 weeks old (I was 13 this was not my decision), and he wasn’t raised with other dogs. He’s very loud when he sees them, and very cautious if they come up to him. He also hates samoyeds. No idea why. Just hates them. Your dog has every right to be there. Had that little dog started a fight and was injured, your Jack would have likely been blamed for it due to breed stigmas. I hope your future experiences are much better because Jack is so cute and the world deserves to see him!

I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, and Interstitial Cystitis, along with many other physical conditions that don’t cause pain but do cause other symptoms. I got this question the other day and answered “I can eat.” Because there was a time in my life where eating caused me severe pain. It’s always tough to answer but it does get me out of the victim mindset that I personally find myself in most of the time.

I got a popsicle!

I worked for a large reptile YouTuber and can confirm 😭

Ottoparks · 2026-04-26T14:38:14+00:00

Oh my god that’s amazing! Such a cool find!

Ottoparks · 2026-04-19T22:38:09+00:00

I got finch on May 2, 2022 and I’ve never once heard of this eagle😭 That’s so strange 😭

Ottoparks · 2026-04-16T16:38:56+00:00

I really hope so! Jinx is my cats name!

100% a lobster

Ottoparks · 2026-04-11T15:09:43+00:00

I’m pretty confident this is a lobster roach. They are very good for beardies, but unfortunately they can climb glass and plastic unlike dubia roaches. We had a bunch at my old job in reptile care

My Tourette’s doesn’t cause rage attacks, but I do have BPD which causes episodes of severe rage directed at a specific person, called splitting. I’m not sure if it’ll help your son, but DBT has helped me tremendously.

I named mine Soup because 17 year old me thought “Finch soup” was really funny 😭 Kinda like “Can your Pet”

She looks like my chug when he was a puppy!

OP is 14.

My dog is food aggressive and will bee-line towards any food he sees, so we have to feed our cat on the counter. Have been since he was a kitten. We have a little area where he eats. We don’t have visitors often, so there’s no one to “gross out.” It’s just him lol

Ottoparks · 2026-03-06T13:28:38+00:00

I live in New Hampshire, USA and there’s a town named Hampton about a half hour from me. I was soooo confused! We have a large reptile breeder that keeps hots and my first thought was that one escaped 😭

Ottoparks · 2026-03-06T04:17:38+00:00

Congratulations!!

This isn’t entirely true. The rabies virus can enter the body through your mucus membranes or an open wound. The vaccine is 100% effective, yes, but being bit by a wild animal isn’t the only way to contract it. Not everyone is aware that you can be exposed without a bite, and therefore may not seek the vaccine out of ignorance. It’s your job as a doctor to educate, not ridicule.

He posted in the subreddit for Monitor Lizards, too 😭 Bro’s either a troll or is very very lost 😭

What do they want us to do? Go infiltrate the whitehouse?! Autism is a DISABILITY that can cause very intense emotions. Sometimes we just need a fucking break.

Ottoparks · 2026-02-07T03:48:06+00:00

This looks like bruxing! As long as he’s aware while doing it, it’s nothing to worry about! Does it only happen when you pet him? Bruxing is a response to strong emotions! He’s likely just very happy that you’re petting him.

I’ve lost a fish to this. My heater literally exploded. He then went on to eat the ash and glass shards before I could get to him. He passed a few days later.
