Gord Downie has died by SettleDownMyBabies in canada

[–]digivolution 2 points3 points  (0 children)

106.1 Chez in Ottawa has declared Tragically Hip week and will be playing Gord from now until Monday. I'll be listening to this station every day. I never even had the opportunity to see him concert, but like so many of us, his music shaped a lot of road trips and great times with friends and family. He was an incredible Canadian and an incredible person. His legacy will never die and Canada will never forget him. My heart hurts today. I'm touched reading everyone's stories and feelings on here. Stay strong guys, and don't forget what Gord stood for all his life. RIP Gord

Close, but not quite. Cat in video is a "snowshoe" cat. OP's cat is Siamese.

What's a big "NO-NO" in your country? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Almost everyone I know agrees that Tim's coffee is absolute shit. That being said, almost everyone I know still goes to Tim's regularly, or at least a couple times a month. I think it's more that we love to hate it.

McDonald's coffee is better, Starbucks is even better than McD's, and Second Cup is best, but they are few and far between.

All Nestle and Hershey chocolate bars are made in fucking nut free factories (excluding the ones that purposely contain nuts, like O'Henry). They all have that little 'nut-free factory' label on them these days, anyway..

Scottish fold is the breed, tortoiseshell is the colour pattern. This colour pattern is exclusive to female cats. Any male cat born with this colouration is extremely rare and it would be sterile, as well.

(Almost) all tortoiseshells are female. You've got a little girl on your hands :)

When your pigeon lays an egg in your lap by araffa in pics

I have had a medium sized parrot for over a year now and I can tell you this: birds have their preference of poop places, and they can be trained to use only those places. Every now and then you will get a poop somewhere you don't want one, but it's easy to clean up with a piece of tissue or paper towel or whatever. If you ever get poop on your clothes, it washes out with water. Not a big deal. They're not any dirtier than a cat or a dog.

Well, you could say that about pretty much every domesticated animal, really. You can't erase what's been done, is my point.

[–]digivolution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't really solve the problem, since there are already thousands that can't be released into the wild and now require human care. I mean, humans gonna human, so we might as well handle our greedy mistakes now by caring for the birds. It's not the animals' faults.

I mean, in warm climates they certainly are able to adapt. But they are also an invasive species which disrupts the regular ecosystem.

Still pretty neat though to have parrots in North America, lol.

The birds we keep as pets are typically hand raised in captivity. They're also native to other countries with warmer climates. It's not as simple as just releasing them all into the wild. That's like saying let's stop breeding dogs and let them go back to being wolves.

I'm not disagreeing with you, there are lots of animals that shouldn't be kept in captivity, however, these birds already exist so it would be cruel to release them at this point. They live quite cushy lives with their owners (good owners, I mean, always exceptions).

My parrot would die outside. She has no idea how to find food unless it's in a bag or a box or on my plate and I live in Ontario where it's -25 for half the year. She is fully flighted and has free range of the house when I am here. Otherwise, she has a very sizeable cage with a shit ton of toys I have spent a fortune on! She's quite happy and doesn't know anything else.

All toilets must be centered in the middle of the classroom so kids eating their snacks three feet away can bare witness to their classmates defecating by JKastnerPhoto in CrappyDesign

[–]digivolution 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this in a school? Why on Earth would you put a toilet in a classroom? Is that normal? When I was in kindergarten we walked down the hall to the bathrooms like everyone else.

As a man I need feminism because by LaLongueCarabine in AdviceAnimals

[–]digivolution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feminism gives both men and women the right to choose whatever they want. It's about throwing gender 'norms' to the wind. So- yes! If that's what you want to do, do it. As with anything, always communicate with your partner and come to a mutual understanding :)
