Literally just shouted what and scared the dog, what even is happening
I think we’re gonna need some proof that the doggy is ok, photographic proof will do
Picture a puppy with big eyes and floppy ears, except she's a full grown 100lb dog with a head larger than that of a 5'2" adult woman. A dog who takes advantage of the fact she's a spoiled and pampered pup, sleeping in every day on one of her three bolster/orthopedic beds (or the couch) just because she can.
She's currently behind me now, snoring so peacefully I'm starting to doze off at the keyboard.
explaining my chronic hypoglycemia is so fucking frustrating honestly
not only are people weirdly aggressive to the concept of sugar being vital to our health and me not having enough of it and having to treat that by eating sugary stuff, particularly 'unhealthy' stuff like lollies and chocolate since it's really good at getting a lot of sugar in my system really fast
but they also IMMEDIATELY assume i'm diabetic and start talking about that, trying to guess if i'm type one or two, blaming me for it, saying i don't 'look' diabetic if it's in person, ect
like i know hypoglycemia isn't particularly common outside of diabetes and alchoholism... but it would be nice for people not to immediately assume that's why i have it and start being really fucking weird about it?
it's also increased my sympathy for diabetics tenfold like holy fuck if this is just what it's like to be *percieved* as having it by random strangers i can only imagine what they go through in medical settings and other interactions where they're *confirmed* to have it, fuckin christ
#FYI im not properly diagnosed yet (to my knowledge at least)#since in order to do that iirc i need to identify the cause which involves a lot of blood draws and hormone screening#and since i can self-medicate my drops bc they aren't very severe that isn't my top priority in terms of medical screenings#(though we're all like 99% sure it's my insulin overproduction bc it's the ONLY possible explaination rn)#but i am hard confirmed to have it! it's just not on paper yet#kind of hard not to be when the average person gets no blood sugar drops ever#and i'm just out here getting them anywhere from a few times a month to multiple times a day or even sometimes several an hour#and have been for many many years

so funny that humans imagined a creature that is like a human but bigger and called it a “giant”. that’s such an uncreative name. that’s just an adjective. “it’s a giant!” “a giant what?!” “a giant… um. yeah. giant.”
oh my god,,,, the word was originally used for the creature and not as an adjective,,,,, that’s even funnier *guy seeing something huge* wow! that’s roughly the size of one of those big creatures wouldn’t you say?

mfs be like "I can handle your disorders" until your disorders disorder disorderly
#ik this is abt mental stuff and i very well get that too. i have those. people are weird about it. but also#chronic hypoglycemia#retrograde cricopharyngeus dysfunction#bitches be like “your disorders are funny i can handle it” until my blood sugar drops blood sugarly and i have to eat sugar to fix it#or i get too bloated and can't drink anything but water and have to go home to cough out the extra stomach gas or throw up#(people are surprisingly weird about R-CPD and especially about the 'not being able to drink soft drinks' part of it?)#(and people get REALLY weird about my chronic hypoglycemia both bc it proves sugar isnt inherently evil and bad and our bodies need it-#-and bc they immediately ask if im diabetic get weird about it and refuse to take no for an answer???-#-like no guys im not diabetic. im the opposite. too much insulin in me. but also even if i was why the fuck would you care???)
still always shocked at how empty my head gets when I take my meds. I keep confusing it for actual lightheadedness and thinking my blood sugar is about to drop, but no, it's just head EMPTY. no internal radio station no billion thoughts being beamed directly into my subconscious all the time. just silence.

Gene-edited 'Peter Pan' cane toad that never grows up created to eat its siblings, control invasive species
The removed gene controls the production of the hormone thyroxine, which fuels the metamorphosis that occurs when a tadpole transforms into a toad. Rick Shine, an evolutionary biologist and ecologist at Macquarie University, is one of the scientists behind the "Peter Pan toads". He said cane toad tadpoles were known to be voracious cannibals with a preference for snacking on their kin, both in egg and hatchling form. This is especially true in Australia where rates of cannibalism of hatchlings by tadpoles have been recorded as 2.4 times that of South America — where the cane toad originated...

We owe it to our commitment to the truth, to not interfere in the story. That is the choice. The moment we act, we are involved with creating the story, and as we become a part of it, it becomes partially about us, and the truth then may never be known. Actors cannot be unbiased. Actors become targets. RIP spaghetti belongings.

wild cats are awesome because they range from “that’s just a cat”
to “are you sure that’s a cat”
