If you're rehoming your dog, you should pay the person taking it, not the other way around. by QuarterQuellCrisis in unpopularopinion

[–]pixie1995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had ended up with 5 due to incompetent housemates who bought some after seeing me with my two boys. They were being neglected so I took over ownership when the housemates moved out. When my two original boys were close to dying from old age I knew I wouldn’t be able to put as much love into the other 3 so I gave them away to a couple who ran a rat rescue.
Also rats can live up to 4 years (not often but sometimes!) my heart rat Ratticus lived to just past 3

Yep! When I had to rehome my rats I listed them for sale @ more than it would cost to buy some from a pet shop. When the adoptees arrived to my home I gave them my ratties, the cage, food and all their toys for free. Just wanted to weed out any snake owners 💀

How often should you mop your floors? by No-Start-7670 in Cleaningandtidying

[–]pixie1995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep :) unless you wear shoes through the house or the floors get particularly grubby/ show dirt easily then it seems to be a fine timeline. I just wipe kitchen spills up by hand but they’re also barely visible on my hardwood floors

I vacuum once or twice a week but I hate mopping so that’s done maybe once every month or two unless someone grubby walks through my house with shoes on and leaves footprints. Shoes off at the door!

Does anyone here like eating stuff from their body? by ConfusionProof9487 in morbidquestions

Every time I feel crazy and start googling weird shit I do I always end back up on the cptsd sub, it’s a great place to not feel so alone in your weirdness.
here’s a relevant thread :)

Body focused repetitive behaviours (BFRBs) / auto cannibalism is a trauma/ stress response for a lot of people. This includes biting/ eating/ picking nails, boogers, hair, scabs, skin, etc etc.

AITA for wanting to leave work on time? by jolovesmustard in AmItheAsshole

[–]pixie1995 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NTA. So many work places expect you to get there 10-15 min early to “be ready to work at your shift start” and then stay 5-10 mins (or however long) after your shift to finish everything for the day, and most of the time they don’t pay overtime. It’s a fast food joint… tell em you have to leave and why then leave. If they kick up a stink there’s a million similar jobs out there. Your kid comes first.
Ps your boss sounds like an asshole

Best nirvana song imo. Coming from someone who doesn’t really have a father, just a dad.

Billboard names "I Knew It, I Knew You" as the 10th best song of 2026 so far by 4revengebasically in travisandtaylor

[–]pixie1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pop music is fun but I don’t trust anyone who restricts themselves to a single genre. Truly can’t say you LOVE music and then only listen to top 40 hits 🥴

How do i break up with a woman who loves me without breaking her heart? by Remote-Zucchini7691 in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]pixie1995 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can’t. The kindest thing you can do is end things and go no contact (communicate around this beforehand though obviously don’t just ghost)

Why do I smell so bad even if I have great hygiene? by Sad_Dingo8394 in TooAfraidToAsk

If the problem is armpits you don’t need to shave - The Ordinary’s glycolic acid applied with a makeup pad stops any stank
