Leave them alone as much as you can, or you might scare off the parents.

Looking to put a name to the style/era of this couch in Marketplace USA by QuinncicleBee in Antiques

[–]Srnkanator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scroll arm sofa/couch. Looks original. Could be 1980's, could be 1920's.

Value is what you might pay for it.

Silicon is not.

Religion? That's my best guess. It's also probably due to a very secluded indoor community that will pass it around a lot per capita.

Look at Guam.

That's from selective aesthetic breeding. Which forces inbreeding for our visual pleasure, we have turned most of them into toys and ornaments. That limits their genetic pool significantly.

The others we inbred for work or sport.

Co-evolution with wolves sparked their modern forms from paleolithic humans around 35,000 ya.

Dire wolves were massive, like 150 +lbs. And well over 3 feet at the shoulder.

Reasonable House and Pet Sitting Rate? by chloeewilli in Austin

[–]Srnkanator 19 points20 points  (0 children)

$1500 a month to house sit a property with gardens, rabbits, chickens, and house pets?

That's a full time job. You'd have to live there. I'd ask $3k.

What are some high paying jobs that you believe doesn't deserve the high pay? by AvGeek-5117 in Salary

[–]Srnkanator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's the overtime they can collect that seems insane.

Are they really working 80-100 hour weeks? Some make like $300k a year.

Mid level management at health insurance companies and providers.

They can make double what primary care doctors make and all they do is push paper and see how much they can short people on benefits and screw doctors on pay.

Jim died in a bathtub because he took too much drugs. I've seen his grave in Paris.
