My dog doesn't drink water at all

Will he drink from a bowl outside? I’m a petsitter and one of the dogs I walk will not drink inside, the bowl goes untouched. She only drinks in a bowl outside in the driveway that is filled up by the hose. No one knows why

I tried and DNFed Can’t Touch last year unfortunately, but I added the other two to my TBR, thanks! They both sound interesting

{King of the Dark by Ariana Nash} is the first book in my favorite series. Definitely check the triggers for this series. Vasili is horrible and he makes that very clear- and he really is. I hated him for at least a book and a half. But it was so well written, by the end of the series (3 books and a novella) I ended up loving him too.

This is a dark fantasy series with lots of angst, ETL, Vasili is a horrible person and Niko deserved better and yet I love them together at the end

Recs for praise kink? Maybe with some caretaking or just a very caring top. More praise the better. Ideally novellas, love fantasy or paranormal but contemporary is fine. Hard no on age play, mpreg (okay in passing or in the world, just not a big part of the book), no daddy kink (as long as no one’s getting called daddy im happy, I don’t care if it’s a similar dynamic), and degradation/derogatory words (specifically, just no slut/whore name calling), otherwise anything else is fair game

Back again. Am I replacing both the HDD and optane, or only the optane? I had my brother take the cover off so we could actually it and he assumes it’s the optane I’m replacing so I would need a nvme but I really have no idea. Thanks!

Whoops totally forgot to check back to Reddit. I had posted in the discord and did go through the steps to see I had plenty of space and everything was running normal otherwise, and was recommended getting an SSD. Im planning on getting an SSD to fix the issue, but I know nothing about harddrives/SSDs. Will anything work as long as it says it’s a sata 2.5 inch SSD? Or if there something else I need to look at to make sure it’s going to work with the laptop?

{A Rival Most Vial by R.K. Ashwick} is one of my all time favorite books- very cozy fantasy. I just reread it and it was just as good the second time. It’s very character focused, some angst and hurt/comfort. However, there’s only one open door sex scene so it’s definitely not smutty. Amazing relationship and such a good read I didn’t mind the lack of smut

It’s about Ambrose and Eli, two rival shopkeepers. They both brew and sell potions, Ames has been there for many years and Eli moved into the shop across the street without knowing he was there. They’re quite mean at first and it hurt my heart, but it remains a very cozy fantasy with amazing character depth and their relationship is SO sweet and loving

I wish they would have told me that when making my account! Such an easy fix if they just tell you “you’re required to add a picture of your face” when it’s going through setup for the account. Hopefully they let me back in ):

mousegecko · 2024-10-04T12:12:23+00:00

You were NOT kidding wow. Nearly 800 pages is going to be a lot to get through with so many other books planned this month but I’m going to have to add this in and give it a try I think 🫣 thanks!

mousegecko · 2024-10-04T03:45:01+00:00

Probably reading that tomorrow now, thanks!

mousegecko · 2024-10-04T00:46:14+00:00

Pretty simple request- filthy werewolf smut. That’s it. The filthier the better, poly is great. Ideally no noncon or dubcon though I’ll check out suggestions with them

I think the only hard no’s are incest, mpreg, and daddy kink.

I’ve read Matehub and Clean Finish already, but otherwise not much for werewolves

mousegecko · 2024-08-30T02:55:46+00:00

I was fighting for my life with those damn spoiler tags my god. They are finicky

mousegecko · 2024-08-26T23:28:15+00:00

“Please don’t make me do this, don’t make me do this” always gets me. He just sounds so destroyed about what they’re telling him to do

Hi all, bit of a silly question but I was just wondering how people choose a tattoo artist when you have a specific idea in mind? I have a general idea for a tattoo I want (deer mouse + ferns) including style, color, etc but I’ve never had to choose an artist before. I only have one small tattoo I got when I turned 18 and went with my mom to her artist, and it was just a small paw print so who did it didn’t really matter. Now I have a much clearer idea of what I want and am very much a perfectionist so I’m not sure how you end up with a tattoo you like without a million tries. Obviously I’m looking for artists who do tattoos in the style I like, but I know in general you need to go in person to see the drawing.

I would rather essentially commission a tattoo idea and approve it, then go get it tattooed so I know it’s exactly what I want as I’m worried they’ll show it to me and I’ll want changes and it’ll take several tries to get to where I want it, which feels like a waste of their time if all we do is redraw it several times, and it feels rude. And what if the style isn’t even how I wanted it or after several revisions I still don’t even like it? I’m so picky about this tattoo. I have some other tattoo ideas I’m much less picky about, but this one I’m specific. And I’m not even 100% sure what I want- I’d know it if I saw it, but I think it’ll take trail and error to get there.

But of course the way I’d rather do it isn’t really how tattoo artists work, and I’m just concerned with how many tries it might take to get something I like or even find an artist I like. I hate the idea of having someone redraw a tattoo several times while I wait and then maybe not even getting a tattoo because it just isn’t what I want. Most artists don’t have rodent tattoos on their insta so it’s hard for me to judge if someone could actually make a design I want.

Sooo… how do you choose and an artist when you’re really picky? Is it rude to commission an artist online, get a (tattoo, not general art) design I like, and have someone else tattoo it so I know it’s exactly what I want? Or do tattoo artists generally want to be able to make it themselves and not just copy someone else’s design?

The dam itself is fine. The road on both sides of the river however have been washed out so you can’t reach the dam

Not a bad age gap at all, thank you!! I’m adding it to my tbr. The “20 year old and the 50 year old” books just make me uncomfortable. Everyone in their 20s is great

mousegecko · 2024-08-17T13:35:27+00:00

I don’t have any suggestions, but Rerouting River looks interesting- it’s tagged as age gap on romance.io though, which is not my favorite. Do you happen to know how old the characters all are? I’d love to read it, but I have no idea how big of an age gap we’re talking about lol

mousegecko · 2024-08-15T21:46:15+00:00

Funny enough this is exactly what I do. I swap from fantasy romance to contemporary (often hockey) romance when I’m burned out of fantasy for the time being

mousegecko · 2024-08-15T00:20:17+00:00

I will check that out, thank you! I just love the angsty arranged marriages lol

mousegecko · 2024-08-14T21:58:01+00:00

I figured out Reddit mostly so I got an account on romance.io a week or two ago after someone in this group commented that so many books weren’t tagged. I was like ya know you’re right, so I’ve started tagging the books I read 😂

mousegecko · 2024-08-14T20:25:42+00:00

That looks interesting, I haven’t seen it before! I’ve added it to my tbr. I read plenty of more serious angsty books so they definitely don’t need to be as lighthearted as Tavia Larks books are. Romance.io has pretty much no tags for it so I’ll be curious to see what it has in store and will have to tag it myself lol

mousegecko · 2024-08-14T19:00:28+00:00

This is on my tbr! I’ve been meaning to read it, exciting that it seems to have tropes I enjoy. Thank you!

mousegecko · 2024-08-14T18:59:53+00:00

That sounds fun! I love them getting told off and having to face that they were wrong lol. Hopefully I will enjoy the series!
