Part of the toxicity is refusing to listen to advice from “females”

Not sure about the second part

Looks nice! May you dodge the hex of having posted an unfinished project and successfully finish it in good time! (Waggles fingers of good magic at you)

When your kid begs for a pet and promises to do all the work caring for it, it’s time to seriously consider it. Don’t make the mistake of believing they will actually do all the work or insisting they do it all, because it’s unfair to the animal. But if they can do some, it’s good for their growth. And having each other for play and companionship makes them both just a little easier for you to take care of.

I shave facial hair and the back hairline of my short boy cut. I also shave pits because I don’t like the way hair interacts with antiperspirant. My forest is natural, mostly gray now, and my legs stopped growing hair in menopause.

In California the open primary allows everyone to vote for anyone. Last time that left us with 2 Democrats running for the final, but this year there are so many people splintering the Democratic voters, we could wind up with 2 Republicans.

She’s dry and has a blanket for body heat, prefers privacy, and now she has food (probably getting low on mousies after being trapped) and water and an exit if needed. You might crack that window rather than the door, put a box or board to hold it up and block extra air/rain. You’re refilling bowls and scooping the box so you’ll know if she’s gone.

Worse, those lemons aren’t fully ripe. Of course you’re adding sugar anyway but they’re going to be low on juice and possibly bitter, so be sure to taste before you ruin other ingredients. Storebought lemons are often dyed so you needn’t try for that look, but at least half of the skin should be a clear bright yellow. And they should twist off without a stem. Lemons ripen slowly, and they keep well on the tree, so you shouldn’t have a bunch like this unless a storm or something brings them down or a branch breaks.

Awww, I hope he’s not afraid of doors anymore, but at least he’s got Pepper to protect him.

Good dads pretend their children are expert hiders

A great thing about cats is that they are able to use the vertical space in your home to get enough exercise without having to go outdoors. And since they reliably land on their feet, it’s a lot safer than having your toddler roaming around the kitchen in the middle of the night, but in terms of curiosity and good judgement it’s about the same.

Wipe down your counters of course, but you shouldn’t be preparing food directly on the counter anyway. I stow my cutting boards vertically behind my canisters when not in use.

And give them better places to climb, like a tall cat tree in a sunny window, or a perch above your computer. High+interesting+warm+secure

Star tortoise lifespan is 35 to 80 years, better care longer life, and the fact it handled the cold and deprivation so well suggests it was an adult to begin with. So it probably lived awhile longer and then died a natural death, and some nuance shifted in the translation.

Kimchi is adorable and has a very nice home. Flowers could use a refill.

Did you, though?

Especially with less-reaching-than-T-Rex hands. Fortunately they’re allatime swishing with salt water

Given it also has a mouth-to-anus tube, is there a name for a double torus? Genus-2 torus I guess

Looking at your times, I had the one that took you the longest almost the moment I opened the puzzle, right after the obvious Kane. Which suggests that the fact I’m an old fart means certain phrases in this list are just more familiar to me. Whereas yesterday was a struggle, and required 3 bolts.

Looking another way, yesterday I got several bonus minutes of interesting brain exercise!

Apparently I’m older and slower. 5500, 0:51

Damn, I guess those pinnipeds were large and in charge

(If this is a no jokes place give me a bunch of down votes and I’ll delete it. But that is how my lazy brain read “seal impressions,” like fossilized tracks or toothmarks or bones)

Love the energy!

It looks like a fresh pineapple tastes
