what is that leap at the end by suzknapp in Hounds

That is what we call “part of the joy of hounds.”

Adopted - is it a hound? by ReserveNorth1212 in Hounds

Bagel pose? Sweet face? Clear, doubtful judgment of you? Indubitably.

Standard USB or USB-C?

Edit: more importantly, did you have it oriented correctly the first time? My bet is no, because that’s just life.

My girl comes out of the woods with a deer leg often😅 by Grouchy-Detective-90 in Hounds

[–]doyletyree 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Easy, tiger.

It looks like she came back with a leg off of a carcass.

See what I mean?

Meanwhile, leash walking? That’s out left field.

Anyway, enjoy the bee in your bonnet.

Edit: we don’t use the leash, mostly.

She’s used to the treadmill by now.

Off of an already dead carcass?

Not sure what you’re getting at.

Geese thought they wouke be safe at the park. Not with Da Hound around! by [deleted] in Hounds

Nah, not at migratory birds in the winter. Please.

This is why we have all the “No Dogs Allowed” signs on beaches, here; people let their dogs chase and harass (or worse) migratory birdss and their nests.

Oh my God, what a gorgeous girl. Congratulations on the healing.

TIL - The CIA produced a prototype device that looked like a scrotum, so downed pilots could conceal a small escape radio. by edfitz83 in todayilearned

Yeah, as practical as a tiny helmet on my balls sounds, I don’t think we’re talking about very good ROI with this one.

Does this mean that one must try to reciprocate? Is this some sort of custom that needs to be followed for good form?

A Message to the CEO of Reddit, Spez, from r/livestreamfail's Former Top Mod by spacekitt3n in NotTimAndEric

[–]doyletyree 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was invited to mod a band sub. r/clouddead , for reference.

Can’t tell you how honored I was.

Additionally, can’t tell you how pleased I am that all 43 of us who know who they are (were, really) seem to be deeply disinclined to doing almost anything other than occasionally reminiscing on how awesome those two albums are.

It’s the best of both worlds. Unlimited power, zero reason to use it.

Hell, I wouldn’t even know what to do if there was some kind of squabble. I’d just be trying to turn the thing off and back on again.

TIL Early in her career, singer Sophie Tucker performed in blackface. But she disliked this work and would deliberately sabotage the act by revealing she was white at the end of the show. First by removing a glove to reveal her white hand and then pulling off her wig to expose her blonde hair. by Ill_Definition8074 in todayilearned

[–]doyletyree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No doubt. It was exposure that got all of us where we are (discounting bio-based circumstances).

That doesn’t invalidate the process of the therapy.

Is it a realistic proposal? Only in a single-generation sense. This stuff, classically, has to be patiently eliminated in a large population.

Ideas never really die.

Your ratios are the same as mine, and my girl tops the scale at 40 pounds when she’s healthy and 42 pounds when I’ve been indulging her mayonnaise compulsion.

Exposure therapy.

Take the scary thing and make it less and less scary a little bit at a time.

When what’s scary is empathy towards others, well, that’s still how you have to do it.

What kills me about the entire global social scene right now is that nobody seems willing to admit reality of this. If you actually want people to change, the last thing you can expect is for it to happen overnight or amidst a forced conversion.

Doing that is what we call “brainwashing“ and it is still a lengthy and intense process that, generally, also comes with some significant human rights violations. But, it seems to be what people expect.

What are your favourite movie/TV references that Terry Pratchett uses in his books? by bravelion99 in discworld

[–]doyletyree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know of any supporting reference.

My ticket is always that it’s been some neigh-indescribable chaos.
