2 days agoI think genetic biodiversity only matters if one reproduces, and that isn’t something that can still happen for me. I might try to teach my future niece or nephew how to do this though :)

It’s double vision, each eye still sends its own signal back to the brain. But I usually just try to focus on one eye’s image so I don’t get sick haha. I am able to read if I focus one eye, I’d say when I do focus on one, the other eye will still notice movement and color
It’s kind of an overwhelming sensory experience, possibly because I don’t do this very often
I can independently move my eyes.
It’s become more difficult and painful to do as I get older though
3·3 days agoOkay, but consider the memes we will feast on if Obama is Speaker while Trump is still president

My state has this policy, too. I wonder if it is something we can change
Excellent name choice 🖤
That’s such a valid fear! I didn’t let her walk outside. I’d put her in a pet backpack for hikes or her carrier for tent teardown and such. There was a couple times when she tried to catch things burrowing under the tent, but I keep her nails nice and short so there was no damage to the tent.
She was so much more chill about it than I expected. I had gotten some of those calming treats with melatonin, but never ended up needing them.
That black and green thing in the background is a portable litter box with a pop-up enclosure. I had her start using it about 3 weeks before the trip, just to minimize the amount of new things for her which I think also helped keep her calm
I took my 16yo cat on a summer-long camping trip this year. She had never been camping before, but she loved it so much!
11·15 days agoI am not for the death penalty in any capacity. However, this woman kept trying to murder people while in prison, although in far less horrific and dramatic ways than she murdered Colleen. I imagine the isolation she experienced on death row had an effect on the murder attempt? She needed to be in a psychiatric hospital
(I thought I had read elsewhere that she had two murder attempts on fellow inmates, one involving a romantic partner, but Wikipedia only has one attempt so I’ll leave it at that)
I’m reading more of your comments in your thread, and I really hope your doctor can help you out. Treatment for this can range from having a feeding port installed to therapy. My family member needed both a port and therapy, but is thriving now.
I also do really understand the texture thing, I have both AuDHD and a sensory processing disorder. If I’m severely stressed about anything, I end up living off safe soft food for a few weeks until my stressor has resolved. Because some textures feel less like food that will nourish me, and more like random objects that might cause me health issues if I try to digest them. That rubbery canned meat texture, especially if it’s accompanied by a layer of fat at the top of the can… 🤢 Yeah I totally understand that :/
Have you heard of ARFID? A close family member, as well as my close friend’s autistic child have this disorder. Low appetite and the visceral reactions to various food items are common with this disorder
Her eyes are gorgeous!
I just went through 4 years of university as an elder millenial, the youngins still feel this way and I honestly thought it was a Gen Z thing. I’d never encountered the punctuation issue before I decided to go to school again
This happens even in states that have enshrined abortion in their constitution, like Montana. Where I lived in Montana we had to drive 2.5 hours one way for the nearest maternity center. It may absolutely be the case that abortion bans are causing these maternity centers to close in many areas, but where I lived it was happening because the rising costs of Healthcare, and the costs to entice doctors to “the frontier”, were too high for keeping the local (and quite poor) population safe and healthy

This is the law that protected access to abortion
This is what I did too! I’m pretty happy with it
