I do the same with my ducks. I have to make sure their pool gets cleaned and filled in both the mornings and evenings on hot days and it’s killing me. My one duck is disabled and she has trouble cleaning herself all the way, so she gets sprayed off with the hose once a day. The birds are doing really well in the heat, which has been a relief. My dogs have been just as miserable as I have been. My cats seem fine.

Dealing with a heatwave in PA rn and I’ve been so sick from it. I’m very sensitive to heat. I’ve been doing all I can to cool off, but most days I just can’t regulate my body temperature naturally* . Almost passed out today when I was catching one of my ducks that escaped the pen. I’ve been getting my shirts wet and just wearing them like that and sleeping with ice packs in my bed. I have a chain of box fans that are my attempt to get the flow of air from the air conditioner around the house. My house holds heat in very well, but is hard AF to cool off and keep it cool.

My mom spent 6 months giving her mother around the clock care before my grandmother died. Afterwards, my mom told me to put her ass in a care facility if she ever needed care like that. I said okay, but didn’t tell her that I had already planned on doing that.

I do not take people who use corporate and “boss” jargon seriously at all. Like, ever. Just talk to me like a goddamn person please.

Can’t forget Squonk. The gross pig thing that is so ugly it cries constantly. It can dissolve itself with its tears at will.

Sad they didn’t put more water birds on there

Bro just has a breeding kink

Gotta give it to humanity, though. We’re damn good at ruining everything we touch.

Same, though my hand already look old because my joints are all fucked up lmao. Almost 27 and I have old lady hands

Tom Cardy is my fave musician.

Bro looks like he’s a decrepit dollar store ken doll

You just gotta have that M E N T A L I L L N E S S

You can take a break if you want lmao

@BonesoftheMoon@lemmy.world and @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world out here doing God’s work.

Before I worked IT, I was a job coach. I helped individuals with disabilities perform their jobs and teach them skills and all that. It was pretty cool because they sent me to all kinds of different places. I did work in a hydroponics non-profit, a senior center, a DMV, a bank, and some other places. It was pretty cool and most of the individuals I worked with were really nice and cool.

Had to have my ankle put back together in November after breaking it super bad. Almost all of the bills have gone to collections because there are too many separate bills for me to keep up with. I’d also just get them randomly and new ones keep popping up every so often. Sometimes I cry just thinking about it.

Taking the time to do it is part of why I stopped. I have better shit to do than worry about body hair that’s there for a reason lol.

Haven’t shaved my legs since 2019 and it’s the best. I only shave my pits at this point because my sweat smells worse with hair there. Everything else is free, as nature intended.

Lmao apparently she was hot when she was young. She isn’t blood related to me, so I didn’t inherit any cool plant powers from her. I’m actually terrible with plants, tbh. Great with ducks, though.

I take a med that’s $40/month after insurance which isn’t that bad for such a specific medication, but the discount card from the manufacturer cuts it down to $5/month.
