reijean 😂

paternal joy is cool actually

Pickle was of course the bestest boy and they all commented on how friendly and easy to handle he was and I was like yes he is very brave and adventurous

agree with him. Going to update the vet in a week, and if he’s not better then we can do some blood tests and X-rays, but they think he’s gonna be ok 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

visit went well! No swelling anywhere, mouth looked good no fungus no infection, and the vet looked as far into pickles throat as he could and it doesn’t look like there’s an obstruction. got some anti nausea meds for him, chances are he either ate something he wasn’t supposed to or something didn’t

bravest man in the whole world

the worst part about going to the vet tomorrow is knowing they’re gonna look at me and go he’s dehydrated 🤨🤨🤨 and I’m gonna have to go I knowwwwww I knowwwwww I’ve been giving him super long soaks to try and help for months and just hoping that they believe me

a bear vacuuming a floor as a japanese salaryman looks on in terror

found out about the manga kuma gurashi which is like those ones where a manic pixie dream girl comes into a salaryman's life and starts doing all his domestic chores for him to heal his heart except in this one it's a realistically drawn bear and the salaryman is terrified on every single page

I spoke too soon, he did show some signs of being uncomfortable but no coughing up food and he’s back to chillin under his heat lamp. gonna leave it in for the night so he can stay nice and warm, high temps are best for sick torts

dried him off, got him a little piece of red leaf lettuce… and he vacuumed it down and started exploring like normal with none of the symptoms from earlier what the fuck man 😭😭😭 still bringing him in to the vet I’m not risking it but this tortoise man.. my little problem child

been combating an awful headache through all of this today of course.

he’s feeling well enough to take part in his favorite activity (bath jail break) but he was acting weird again earlier when I gave him a little food, there has got to be a blockage or gut issue or something ://
vet right away tomorrow morning at least

scheduled a vet visit for pickle somethings not right

I don't even know if chatgpt is an app or is it on the browser or what, I have never even felt the need to find out where AI is and how to use it, it's so little of interest to me. I love creating! So why would I let someone else come eat my steak and fuck my wife etc!?

failed to spend less than 1 hr… but this was a cute prompt, always thinking about their hugeness 💭 ty!!

a combination of insurance bullshit and the drs office not refilling my RX because I had to cancel my appointment and couldn’t reschedule for months because work has been so stupid busy

I’ve had the same editor since 1967. Many times he has said to me over the years or asked me, Why would you use a semicolon instead of a colon? And many times over the years I have said to him things like: I will never speak to you again. Forever. Goodbye. That is it. Thank you very much. And I leave. Then I read the piece and I think of his suggestions. I send him a telegram that says, OK, so you’re right. So what? Don’t ever mention this to me again. If you do, I will never speak to you again

Absolutely incredible.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.

Watch with sound on.

I think being on-off-on my meds is exacerbating the problem

thank you 😭💙

not much anyone can do tbh 😭 but I appreciate the offer

ngl guys my mental health is in the shitter

To be clear, the United States military is not just "war crime" evil, and "genocide support" evil - it is also lawless pirates.

Pickle himself is unsure about this change from the looks of it I’ll have to keep checking in

NEW HOUSE
I’m afraid moving now will stress him out (in case he is sick or there’s something wrong) but on the flip side if he’s sick he needs fresh bedding anyway so…
testing out reptile carpet instead of substrate. only 1 light right now but I have a 2nd set up in case he needs it

"I can write something better than this dumb book" I said and then opened my doc and struggled to string together 2 sentences and couldn't figure out how to describe the environment so maybe i cannot, actually

every time I start to get a little bit into it, there's something that just completely kicks me right back out, either an edgy one-liner or taking something the reader can very clearly see (like the classism and privileged in their society) and having to outright state it
