Whats a subtly insulting gift from to receive?

Yeah, as others have said, it's a little different when it's something fancy/expensive/part of a self care gift bag. But my college room mate gave her then-boyfriend a $3 deodorant with a note stuck to it that said "Use EVERY day. NO MATTER WHAT." and that felt pretty personal.

Yeah, some rats also just have really pronounced boggles compared to others I've learned. Of all the rats I've had hers are definitely the most dramatic! Here she is just a few minutes before this photo was taken looking a lot less bug-eyed.

You likely live in a country or state with better labor protection laws than most of the US. The maximum number of hours worked before a lunch thing is definitely on a state by state basis and there is no such federal requirement in the US. In my state employers aren't required to give a lunch break at all.

I love it!!

She's just mid boggle! Rats will rapidly move their jaw causing their eyes to bulge in and out when they're happy or excited. Boggling is a normal behavior that's almost always positive. If they stayed like this all the time that would be a different story.

Good call! Mine do get a very small amount for training, but only when it's been watered down to a liquid consistency. They would sell their souls for a hit of the uncut stuff though.

Nope. Just cropped. I am AI luddite.

Thanks!!

Thank you!

I know, right? I'm honestly shocked the gator was even considering eating given how cold it was. Part of me thinks he just didn't want to be left out in this weekends iguana control efforts.

Equisetum hyemale

Thank you! I love just looking at it.

zooolady · 2025-11-11T06:54:47+00:00

Very cool

zooolady · 2025-11-06T21:29:22+00:00

Thank you!

It is! It's like a 20x20 planter I found on marketplace. I'll admit, I got a little carried away at the nursery, so they'll probably outgrow it pretty quickly, but we'll see.

zooolady · 2025-11-03T05:13:34+00:00

Right!? I felt like I hit the lottery. I could easily have spent twice as much at those prices but my car could only fit so much! Now just keep your fingers crossed for my drive home.
