I have a special needs bearded dragon. Special needs because he was born without scales. Also, unfortunately, he is now mostly blind.

He has given me more grey hairs in his 5 years on earth than my previous 30. His care requires multiple skincare products, aloe, etc. His diet requires me to keep bins of cockroaches which also require their own food and water. He also requires heat & UVB bulbs with separate fixtures, and has a specialty “herpstat” that can automatically time the lights, control temperatures, report on humidity, etc.

He is a pain to care for!

I love him so much. I do it all happily and he’s a wonderful, friendly, sweet, amazing companion.

Woo woo! Auditory Processing Disorder!

“Pokémon the Trading Card Game” has such a genuinely good fucking soundtrack!

We thank the great, valiant protectors for shielding us from the loathsome, horrible, dangerous hempseed. 🙏🙏🙏

Gotta have that classic Konamix. Chicks dig it. 😎

jk don’t listen to me. I don’t anything about gettin’ anything. Lol But you’ll have fun, that I do know!

A few years ago, I invited a guy over and we ended up playing DDR on PS1. I had the window shades drawn because I live next to a road, have large windows, and I don’t want strangers seeing me flail around like an elephant seal having a seizure.

My mother dropped by unexpectedly and I opened the door, red, panting, and sweaty, with a strange man on my couch who was trying to look casual.

Tried to blurt out that it was a misunderstanding, but she side-eyed me and left quickly.

At least she always texts me before she drops by now? I’m ace, so, for me, it’s particularly mortifying.

Again, impressed! I can respect a collector who enjoys what they accrue. My collection(s) are more SFW, but I can appreciate the artistry and dedication to the craft, for sure!

I’m frightened yet impressed that y’all can tell these kind of things. Respect.

He has a chameleon??? Holy shit, anyone who can keep those goobers alive & healthy are fukkin rad!!

I absolutely LOVE the original Subnautica, but was frustrated with Below Zero. I’ve posted multiple rants about it on Lemmy before.

Already skeptical about this game because it looks like it has

.

A big appeal of the first game was the isolation you felt, and the struggle to find life and accomplish gargantuan tasks.

Cautiously optimistic for this installment.

Please don’t have any characters yap & quip throughout this one, god, please!

The reason for the common cold being so prevalent in cold weather is because of the cold.

My theory is that cold temperatures best suit the incubation of the germs. You are especially susceptible at night, when you can’t control your breath enough to keep your nose/nostrils warm. Warm face/nose at night = you won’t catch a cold.

I’m absolutely convinced of this theory. I’ve tested ways to keep my face/nose warm at night, and it seems to test very solidly (and I get sick very very easily). Once my room gets too chilly, I’ll inevitably wake up with a cold.

EDIT: let me have the smallest conspiracy theory in the world, thank you.

Hey. I understand that maybe you’re unaware of the nuance behind this. Almost all massive producers of chocolate rely of human exploitation and slavery to get their chocolate. Many “workers” are also young children. People need to know this.

I know that it seems like people might just be out to “spoil the fun”, but the more you know about a product and how it is produced, you can make decisions about your consumption.

I’ve made decisions like purchasing the majority of my clothing secondhand, avoiding N×stlè products, cutting much of my meat consumption, etc. because I’m faced with the reality that my choices affect the lives around me, even if I do not see the impact directly.

It’s upsetting to hear about the reality of things like this, but it’s very very important to be informed. I do not want to simply consume a product if I know that it is actively harming lives and/or contributing to human suffering. If that means avoiding certain chocolate bars, so be it. I hope that someone would do the same for me, too, if I were in such a position.

Rude.

ItemLabel Big Shirt.

Simple. Roomy. Big. Comfy. Has fantastic embroidered fish on the pocket.

10/10.

Also a reminder that Bandai Namco patented mini-games on loading screens! Now no one else can do that.

When you patent general ideas, you rob people of an experience.

Might as well start patenting art styles at this point.

Yeah, more of an auadhd.

OH GOOD LAWD FINALLY THANK YOU CHEEZUS 🙏🙏🙏

It has been an absolute struggle trying to avoid spoilers.

Fun fact: some tuxedo cats actually have prominent Siamese genetics! Siamese cats are known for being very very vocal.

Stalkers, no doubt.
