This is so cute! Is he asking if you want a cup of tea too?
Can too.
I mean... It looks like OP got it down
Honest question: what do you do with an avocado tree grown from pit? I've got one but I don't know its sex and I don't think it would ever fruit even if it could be properly pollinated. -covering its ears- it's not even very pretty....

Thirty years ago, Switzerland felt like it was at the cutting edge of science and technology—innovative, precise, and ahead of the curve. But somewhere along the way, it got complacent. It rested on its past achievements and stopped pushing forward, especially when it came to environmental responsibility. The glaciers were already melting ffs.
In contrast, during 12 years in Oregon, I saw and felt real progress—conscious efforts to rethink energy, reduce waste, invest in green infrastructure, and build a more sustainable culture from the ground up. Things moved. People cared.
Coming back to Switzerland after that, it was striking how little had changed. The same habits, the same systems, the same quiet resistance to transformation. In many ways, it felt like the country had fallen behind—not in knowledge or resources, but in mindset. That cautious stability, once a strength, now feels like a barrier to meaningful action—especially in a world that’s already late in addressing climate change.
Now the glaciers are gone
That is a fun fact!
What Whisker likes today might not be appealing to him tomorrow, and he will ask for it in 2 months when you thought he didn't like it. Don't get me started on which brands he favors depending on which direction the wind blows. That being said, I got mine to eat his wet food by mixing pumpkin purée for human babies with it. It worked for almost an entire week.
Moooom, shut the door, I'm with my friends!!
In Switzerland, it is not allowed to vacuum after 10 PM and, how my not all neurotic crazy neighbor reminded me, not on Sunday either.
i also would like to thank my candy trio, which is one part dishwasher, one part oven. its only one machine big, so no space wasted, yet does both job great.
Whhhha? What is this witchcraftery? I'm gonna need to find me one of if those
That's awesome to hear! I was just lamenting the lack of cute animals here. The garden is buzzing from all sorts of insects, including cute ones like fireflies and ladybugs, bees, etc. but realized that there is no hedgehog here helping me wage war against a serious infestation of slugs.
Tried to order a croissant at a gas station in Oregon once — I lived there, but my French accent turns croissant into a whole performance.
The Mexican woman behind the counter couldn’t see what I meant (glass case + clutter) or understand, we both laughed a lot, and I ended up with the croissant and a breakfast burrito.
Could’ve been worse.
"Better off Ted" had a bit of the same issue 16 years ago: https://vimeo.com/188033313
Hey, logically, everyone involved were single, so logically, there is no betrayal. Tere were other circumstances in my situation that made me tick. I guess those are sensitive situationd that will be different depending on the sensibility of everyone involved.
Mine married my ex husband, and I was the one considering it a betrayal.
That innocent creature has another cat curled and sleeping on his tummy (I thought there were 2 cats at first quick glance)
Condolences to your poor butt btw.

Torn between needing the job and staying true to my values
Hey folks, I’m a freelance voice-over artist and QA reviewer working on training content, usually things like workplace harassment and diversity courses. Recently, I was asked to QA a course on workplace harassment—and noticed the client had removed all references to gender, replacing it with sex. Anywhere the word “gender” appeared, it was just… gone or replaced.
It seems like a subtle thing on the surface, but it’s not. It completely shifts the tone and scope of the training. It feels like a quiet rollback of DEI principles, and honestly, it made my stomach turn. The kicker? I need this job. Turning this down could burn a bridge I can’t afford to lose.
I have a good relationship with the lead on the project (who's just relaying instructions—they don’t have control over the content decisions), and I want to say something. At the same time, I’m scared that even a polite pushback could cost me.
Has anyone else been in this kind of situation? How do you draw the line when your ethics

Those mushrooms have come and gone in my spider plant :) I really really really want to lick them.
