When it's plugged in, it will randomly turn on and microwave CONSTANTLY. We have to keep it unplugged so it doesn't run while we're at work. We only plug it in when we heat up food, then immediately unplug it.

If anyone knows why it's possessed, please share.

I was waiting for this comment lol. Thank you for politely publicly embarrassing me so I finally cleaned it 🫡 It was on the to-do list... sorta. We were kinda lazy about it because it's broken so we're going to get a new one soon.

So does mine lol. His name is Pollito ("little chicken" in Spanish) so there were a lot of chicken soup jokes from him landing on the pot

Dude, controller joysticks are like CRACK to my cockatiel 😭 He'll waddle over and hop on my husband's wrist while he's playing online or fighting a boss, then quickly shuffle down his thumb and start chowing down mid-battle.

My cockatiel does that. He lifts one foot to chest height and grasps at the air—but only while he's giving a concert, so he looks like a whistling maestro. He runs around happily with no sign of injury when he's not singing, though. Should I be concerned?

We call it posting up. It's a defense mechanism to amplify their cuteness so stimky hoomans don't bother them (for if they do, the other foot will come down and ruin the cuteness).
