  • Okay but like, there’s a right and wrong way to count time and they’re doing it wrong. This is 100% valid to report as a bug, and imo, incredibly helpful - especially compared to most of the bug reports I see! Idk what the context is here, but for the software I QA for work, this kind of mistake would break everything, and I’d report it as a bug. Their comment isn’t a reply in a professional situation, but still, that reaction is extremely over the top. What an asshole


  • Never see the hawks target them either, they fight back and mob predators.

    Ooh cool! So just the other day, my husband saw a hawk grab a grey squirrel. And a squirrel buddy came over and attacked the hawk and rescued the first squirrel!! We’ve never seen or heard of anything like that before. These were grey squirrels.

    Maybe squirrels are a lot more roughty toughty than I’ve been giving them credit for! 😁


  • Well I’m not sure about that, but that’s a good point…

    Polar bears have translucent hair that looks white, and black skin. Looks like black squirrels have black skin. So maybe it depends if this white squirrel still has black skin underneath 🤷‍♀️ I’m going to tell myself that the lil guy will be fine because that’s a happier ending 😅



  • American born to English ex-pats here. We also left out beer for Santa - and carrots for the reindeer.

    We left cookies out too, I’ll have to ask if the cookies (and maybe the carrots too) were just put back in the box/fridge, or what actually got eaten.

    Edit: my dad says the beer and cookies were definitely eaten but “neither of those pair well with carrots” so apparently they just went back in the fridge. I’m not sure why my brother and I bothered with the carrots then 😂



  • My best friend has struggled with depression for a long time and no SSRI really worked for her. She switched to an SMS medication and it has made a huge difference for her depression.

    Meanwhile I’m treated for anxiety moreso than depression, and also felt some emotional blunting on SSRI’s. I switched to an SNRI, which targets both serotonin and norepinephrine and that has gotten a lot better for me. It’s a lot easier for me to feel joy now.

    TLDR: if your meds aren’t working for you, shop around and see if something else works better. Yes it takes time, but it’s better than being stuck feeling nothing.
