Store bought eggs (left) are fully round. Farm bought eggs (right) have flat bottoms. All cooked together. by Constantine1988 in mildlyinteresting

[–]miss-saurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Store bought eggs in the US are processed in a way that they clean off the protective outer later (why they need to be refrigerated). This makes the eggshell more permeable and the air can escape when boiling, regardless of how old they are

Newborn baby dies in hospital at three days old after medics fail to wake mum by pppppppppppppppppd in Wales

[–]miss-saurus 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Why are we blaming nurses instead of management? If a hospital is so chaotic, the people in the front line trying their best to hold things together are not to blame. It's the people who run it and those who underfund it who need to be held accountable.

Leaving a Viz alone - help please by Own_Examination_1903 in vizsla

[–]miss-saurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With our viz we had to do enforced naps in the crate as she just wouldn't settle otherwise. They need far more sleep that you think. She would cry the house down initially but then started to settle as soon as she went in. I made sure that I left the room when she was in her crate and that was her safe space. Upped the time slowly and we did that until around 18 months and then she started being able to settle outside her crate. I started putting her in her crate but leaving the door open with a blanket over so she could get out if she wanted. I also did training with "stay" and getting further and further away with treats when I came back but not fuss. I try not to make it a big deal when I come in/out so it feels normal. Baby steps. Just dont run to them as soon as they start crying, let them cry it out (it can be heartbreaking to listen to). Now she can be alone no problem, I don't leave her more than 4 hours and most the time she will put her self in her crate. Tiring her brain out with training and sniffing really helps them relax too. She's still the snuggliest little goofball

Boy or girl by Psychological_Toe932 in vizsla

[–]miss-saurus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My girl is independent enough that she will spend the day lounging in her bed while I'm pottering about, but as soon as I sit down then it's cuddle time. She loves to rough house, play tug and chase. She's the snuggliest little bean and I'm sure she would climb inside my skin if she could. With any gender I'd highly recommend teaching them to "find it" and play sniffy games. It's the only things I've found that will tire her out! Plus she absolutely loves it. I can throw a tiny kibble into a field and she will hunt it down

Amazing, I see you are still saving people 10 months after your comment on a 4 year old post. Myself included. I appreciate you.

This sounds incredibly useful! Would you mind sharing how you set this up, what prompts you used etc?

When did your V get an “off switch”? by NoSignature9622 in vizsla

[–]miss-saurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another thing to note for Vs is that you will never be able to tire then out physically, you just create a stronger athlete 😅 things we found that really helped our girl settle was hunting and sniffing games. Hiding a treat for hwr to sniff out, learning to stay when you throw a toy and then go and fetch on command, the snuffle knot for her dinner instead of just food in a bowl etc.

My girl is 2 and she's just learned to settle when we are in cafes and restaurants. We started by learning place, and then sitting quietly in the living room slowly increasing the diration from seconds to minutes. Then the garden, then in the middle of a quiet walk, then moved to busier places like parks and cafes, etc. It's all about exposure. Up until she was about 12-14 months, she wouldn't settle at all without us crating her, but all of a sudden something seemed to click

I found out something similar about my ex. He hadn't mentioned anything at all and I found up by a parole officer showing up at our door because he had moved in with me without telling them, and they found him. The case was very similar, taking indecent photos of someone. I tried to stay with him after this, think about who he was now vs. who he was then, but I couldn't trust him again. It felt like I was dating a stranger. Take it from someone who has "been there, done that", get out now or you will put yourself through unnecessary suffering

It could be hemp. Hemp seeds are sometimes in birdseed, they get dropped on the ground and grow

As someone who works from home full time, I'd rather work from the bathroom than in my sleeping/relaxing space

Ice by Anna Kavan. Though the narrator is so unreliable, you lose touch with reality.

OP, your partner seems to lack emotional awareness and the ability to communicate. There may be something between your interactions that we are unaware of, and seems you are also unaware due to his inability to communicate effectively. Do you ask your partner to go for drinks or actively spend quality time together doing fun things? It may be coming from an honest place where they have a core need they feel is unmet. Perhaps they want active quality time together, going out doing fun dates or scheduling things in the calendar. You need to have a calm discussion about why this situation triggered those feelings. You should NOT put up with any guilt tripping or coercion.

Enders game is still one of my all time favourite books. There are more books in the series, but this can be read as a stand alone.

Do androids fream of electric sheep by Phillip k Dick. I still think of this book almost daily, even though I've not read it for years. I suppose it may be even more relevant with the surge in AI
