On a happy note our chickens have decided the other half of our yard is safe now and have made it all the way to the back fence!

Messy yard with wooden fence and a bunch of chickens scratching and pecking near it. There are mountains in the background.

I am with you on this one. I took fiction and media in high school and we read through the plays allowed and watched interpretations of them! It was great for understanding the poetry.

I've been living through this hellscape called military academia... The highlight of the semester was that after they furloughed our civilians and I was teaching ~120 cadets biology, a raccoon snuck into one of our large auditoriums on the 2nd floor and evaded capture for 3 days.

I accidentally got in a fight on a random reddit post and the person still doesn't believe you can get pulled over for not having a registration sticker because "most if not all" don't even have those anymore... I'm trying not to continue to feed my rage monster...

We were likely years away from making HIV a thing of the past. Humanity triumphing over one of its worst diseases

My pasty butt chick didn't make it... Now I have to either integrate her sister with my older ones or hope one of the stores have baby chicks still...

I've experienced this before. Lol

I got two new babies. One of them has a case of the pasty butt. Hopefully she pulls through but she's small and her poor butt keeps crusting over...

The previous are now essentially teenagers and will be moving outside soon.

I'm sorry John, I have those stupid irrational thoughts that I'm annoying people sometimes too. Especially with the sky literally falling around us and so many people just ignoring it happening...
