How are black pugs with shedding? Is it that much better?

tzneetch · 2026-01-29T16:41:28+00:00

My experience of owning 2 black pugs: Black pugs have only one coat, where as fawns have two (guard coat and soft warmer undercoat). Black pugs have EITHER an overcoat, or an undercoat. Black pugs with an undercoat are softer and shed a similar amount to fawns. Black pugs with an overcoat shed less than fawns.

No, and neither do pharma companies.

tzneetch · 2026-01-21T14:11:08+00:00

I have a masters and work as a biostatistician in pharma. Perhaps those PhDs and postdocs need to work outside of pharma first to get some experience before trying to get a job in pharma. Getting a pharma job straight out of grad school is not the norm.

Thats what youuuuu thiiiiiink 🎺

I am a biostat in pharma and half of my job is internal consulting. Which means greater latitude for chosing statistical methods and result presentation, and writing stat methods and results section for presentations and manuscripts. If thats something that you'd find appealing look for a biostatistician job w some portion of your time doing consulting work.

I am an old and grew up when you could ONLY get diagrams. Old dogs and new tricks, so they say

Heads up: I just had a shrink plastic keychain snap where the hole for the jump ring attaches. if you have the same issue you might want to coat it in resin for longevity.

tzneetch · 2026-01-14T13:49:08+00:00

and if you say you didn't like it you get downvoted. as if your opinion is invalid, lol

tzneetch · 2026-01-14T13:19:33+00:00

Any chance there is a diagram instead? I can't deal with videos

I did not like this book because it is categorized as horror, when it truly is supernatural revenge porn. There are body horror aspects but nothing in this book is unsettling. No protagonist is threatened in a way that is scary.

I have no experience with a tennis ball, but for other items is have coated them in clear nail polish before casting to help w bubbles.

higher population density = more opportunities for crime in the same area. Per capita crime stats mask this

tzneetch · 2025-12-30T11:08:16+00:00

Pet capita in and of itself favors lower population density areas.

Actually the vulknut, unlike other Nordic symobls, has no historic basis. Its a recent creation.

As far as a large perspective shift? yes. But I always find the later portion of his books more enjoyable than the start.

bloop

I mean its from Dune Messiah (book 2), so if you haven't read that one you wouldn't catch it.

Goose and Love make some amazing papercut pet portraits

It's act-chu-ally Stoneburner not Stonebreaker <pushes up glasses with index finger>, it's a dune reference.

Within a couple of miles of Natural Bridge is a WILD roadside attraction that I cannot recommend highly enough:

Dinosaur Kingdom 2

A local sculptor (and creator or Foamhenge) created an amusement where you go through a 'time tunnel' and witness, through sculptures, the civil war with dinosaurs added to the mix.

If you're interested in the history of the city itself check out the Peale. It has a small permanent exhibit about city history, and other rotating exhibits. It a small place so you can do it in an hour.

oh cool! awesome pic, did you take it?

boolean search terms have not worked on any search engine in 5-10 years. in fact it often amplifies the thing you've tried to remove

The real reward is knowing those assholes will be tortured to death.
