:( please no take my eyes

This could totally be the cover of a book about time travel to the dinosaur times. Gorgeous picture, it totally makes me think prehistoric ancient untouched wilderness

Not true! I won’t be over 35 until next year!

Oh, definitely. Those 90s per stores were absolutely awful, and people thought they were trustworthy, because why would they lie? :(

I haven’t been on the hamster subreddit, but I absolutely loved the guinea pig subs. Such good info. Animal care subs in general were amazing.

I like Lemmy, and I genuinely hope it succeeds at dethroning reddit, but I believe the way forward is to bring back individual forums like we had back in the day. Way more organization options with a forum. Be could if we could use a Lemmy like front end to browse many forums at a time, while maintaining the individual actual forums, where each one can many sections and threads within those sections. That, I believe, could get us to unseat reddit and let us have our amazing communities back like the animal care subs.

That was way off topic, but I’m currently swollen and on meds and my brain has never thought in straight lines anyway. Lol

Of my childhood friend group, I am the second smartest, and the poorest at the moment (aside from the ones that are in prison), the smartest is the wealthiest among us, but only because she was smart enough to utilize her intelligence into a degree and a higher GS grade in a government job. None of us are wealthy, but she’s doing the best. Buying a home, and can pay her bills, and has about 200 bucks per paycheck to put into savings. We all came from very economically disadvantaged backgrounds, but she had the advantage of both of her parents being in the military, so while we lived in the same neighborhood, she lived in a much nicer home, whereas the rest of us lived on roads her parents told her never to walk down.

I am currently attempting to follow the path she did, just 15 years later.

Yeah, Clyde deserved better.

I wasn’t there for the per store interaction, but I assume it was a kid working retail following directions off a tag on a cage. That’s been most of my experience with pet stores prior to decent information becoming widespread on the Internet

My phone stays in do not disturb mode. I have several people as breakthrough exceptions, but my phone stays on vibrate so even they don’t get full ringers. Notifications for everything but calls and texts are turned off.

I am not hiding anything other than myself from having to deal with humans

We fed em, Bonnie was just evil. Clyde showed up one day on my mom’s porch, during a period in which I had been kidnapped (familial kidnapping) and brought a lot of comfort to my brother and mom during that time. The guy at the pet store (this was 90s, pre Internet for us) told them he needed a companion, and to keep them in separate cages and only let them interact supervised, so that’s what they did. They got Bonnie and set everything up, but Bonnie despised Clyde and everything about his good, sweet, and pure little hamster soul. Shortly after I got back, Bonnie committed her ultimate crime.

Let me get moved to Texas before we do that, please!

I had two hamsters. Bonnie and Clyde. Bonnie ate Clyde. Chewed through her cage, crossed a bedroom, chewed into Clyde’s cage, and ate him side first. Ate through her final cage, his ribcage.

You are not a ne’er-do-well with a hamster sidekick. You are a poor, manipulated human under the spell of an evil hamster.

I don’t have time to listen right now, but do you know if he talks about the religious Congress, or Vivekananda?

You let her rest in peace!

This is why I never use condoms, cause the teeth would just tear the condom anyway

Not with a 10 foot pole, handles and help.

Exactly what I came to the comments for!

Mmhmm

No.

If they take commissions, I have nowhere near enough money to afford one, but when I win the lottery…
