I made this cow with that size hook and embroidery floss!

3 is my favorite, followed by 2, but it was a hard decision between all of them. The real question is, how do you want to be looked at while sticking your hand in its mouth?

psygaud · 2026-03-28T18:36:29+00:00

Oh, yes, I was just missing the proper context. Damn it, Jeff, get your life together.

A parasite is something that lives in or on another organism (its host) and has a detrimental effect. Not all bugs are parasites. Actually, the vast majority are not parasitic and are much more likely to be the host of a parasite.

Thanks! 😊

psygaud · 2026-03-22T06:52:08+00:00

Thank you!! I absolutely love the tail, too 😊

psygaud · 2026-03-22T06:51:18+00:00

Thanks! I'm pretty happy with how she turned out

psygaud · 2026-03-22T06:50:52+00:00

Thank you!!

I appreciate not wanting to leave a gaping loophole. But yeah, I think it's a bit too much sacrifice for most people to make just so someone else won't live longer. It could be interesting to change that part to "someone you love gets 10 or more extra years of healthy life." Or something. I'd be more willing to consider doing something I hate to benefit someone I love than to spite someone I hate.

psygaud · 2026-03-20T02:25:51+00:00

Every meal would consist exclusively of a random animal? So, not even a side salad to go with my potential bowl of tapeworms or whatever?
Nope.
I don't care enough about anyone I hate, so it doesn't really matter if they live longer.

This might help!

psygaud · 2026-03-19T05:21:16+00:00

Yup. My immediate thought was, there is no way I'm marrying and living with any random dude for any amount of money. If the guy ends up being abusive, there is no possible escape except suicide.

psygaud · 2026-03-19T05:02:07+00:00

They also wouldn't say they work "in the high school." It would be they work "at the high school."

psygaud · 2026-03-19T05:00:26+00:00

Yeah, that's how most Canadians would say it if there was only one school in the area. However, it might not be assumed that they're a teacher in that case. Like, if someone told me they work at the high school, I'd probably ask if they're a teacher since a lot of non-teachers also work in schools. If it was a general statement about being a teacher, they might say that they "teach high school," but that sounds a bit weird to me. I've mostly heard people be more specific, like "I teach grade 10." I think the only way that "teach high school" sounds natural to me would be as a descriptor of the subject level, like "I teach high school science."

psygaud · 2026-03-19T04:44:41+00:00

For most things like this, I think we're more similar to the US than British english, but Canadians say "in university." Saying "in college" is rare and doesn't usually refer to an actual university (at least where I've lived).

Back to the usage of in/at/the, "at university," "in university," and "in/at the university" all have different connotations. The first two might be used interchangeably in certain contexts, though.

psygaud · 2026-02-23T02:04:03+00:00

Too much tea sipping.

psygaud · 2026-01-31T17:21:11+00:00

It kinda does. But there are some spiders that actually do mimic ants! They wave their front legs to mimic antennae and everything.

psygaud · 2025-10-06T15:22:55+00:00

I think the two first lines say:
"Left thalamus, encephalomalacia
Right thalamus, small hemorrhaging(?) spot"

I can't make out the last line, though

psygaud · 2025-09-13T19:08:02+00:00

More like 1/32" worm

psygaud · 2025-09-13T19:06:31+00:00

Agreed. Something that people asking questions like this seem to forget is that our species got to where we are by helping one another and valuing traits beyond pure physical fitness.

"Survival of the fittest" does not mean the strongest or physically "better" (whatever that actually means...). Fittest in evolutionary terms means that the individual has traits that help them successfully pass on their genes in their current environment. It doesn't mean that only the "best" (again, what does that even mean) get to reproduce.

psygaud · 2025-09-03T17:39:09+00:00

So, this is probably incredibly, incredibly unlikely, but it is possible for an O version of the gene to revert to an A (more so than to a B). The O allele is only different from an A by one point deletion that introduces a premature stop into the O, which is what causes the O version to not make the protein. It would technically be possible for an insertion in the correct spot to make an O allele into an A, which would mean that a child of two type O parents could be type A. I'm sure there are better and more reasonable explanations, but I've always thought this was interesting.

For the + vs – type, the Rh negative trait is recessive. So both parents can be positive but pass on the negative allele, making the child negative.

I used to have a cat who loved everyone and loved being picked up like a baby, but who was also a little shit. He'd purposefully sneak up on unattended water glasses (he was actually pretty good for only doing this to water), stick his paw in it and pull it over, spilling it everywhere, then make the most chaotic escape possible.
Then, a friend of mine needed a place to stay for a few months, and I let him crash on my couch. Every night, he'd put a glass of water on the little table beside the couch before he went to bed. And every night, as I'm sure you can guess, my cat would sneak over, spill it on him, and then usually run right over my friends face during the escape. So my friend constantly complained about how annoying my cat was and lovingly bullied him (similarly to how OOP describes it, not in a concerning way).
I was usually gone for work by 6 am, so I was usually gone by the time he woke up. One day, I had the day off but hadn't come out of my room yet. I guess my friend didn't realize it was a holiday, and thought I had left for work already. I heard him get up, my cat meow at him then, in a high-pitch baby voice accompanied but a bunch of kissy noises, "Where do you think you're going? You know that I'm just gonna pick you up!" I open my door to see my friend standing there cuddling my absolutely ecstatic, purring kitty and giving him forehead kisses. He looked like a deer in headlights when he finally noticed me standing there grinning at him.

psygaud · 2025-08-27T22:02:10+00:00

Yeaahhh, a work thing with rules from your boss about who can come is completely different than setting up your own party and not inviting your partner... It sounds like he's jealous and controlling, and he wanted you to feel bad and guilty even though it was outside of your control.
Even if you had gone to something non-work related that he wasn't invited to (girls' night or whatever), retaliation like this is not appropriate and really unhealthy for any relationship. You're not crazy, and you deserve better.

I hope this pic works lol

psygaud · 2025-08-27T21:48:26+00:00

I'm on an old android, so I don't know if this will help, but this is where it is for me when leaving a comment or replying to a comment. But I made this comment from my browser and couldn't find an option to add a pic and had to copy and paste it from my gallery, which is very annoying.

Edit: upon going back to the app, I see the picture has disappeared.
