i don’t know how far my reach is but here in Aotearoa, we have a time honoured tradition. Crate Day. Where on the first saturday of december (first saturday of summer here in the southern hemisphere) you buy a crate of beer (12 bottles (750mls each (9 litres of beer))) and you start at midday and you have until midnight to finish them (1 bottle per hour) but beer is gross as hell so some people do two boxes (of rtds) (24 bottles/cans of a Ready To Drink)
but i am a little baby light weight
and so my flatmate and i decided to just split a bottle of prosecco and make mimosas. but then we realised that was only 3-4 standards each. so we got red bull and decided to vodka redbulls. and then we realised we had both opened a v (energy drink in nz) so i have currently drunk 2 vodka redbulls and half a bottle of wine and one vodka v.
i was having an excellent time listening and jamming to 2010’s tunes. i decided to make people food
then two other girls came over
they didn’t eat any of my food
and now it’s not 2010’s music it’s music i don’t like
and it flatmate who i was drinking with is talking to the other girls more and ignoring me and my additions to the conversation
and now i’m not having fun anymore :( i just want to jam out to white girl music as i down a bottle of wine
is that too much to ask :(

hi, hello, I wanted to politely ask if I could send anon hate because I heard that was a thing people do apparently (I was curious), but I remembered you have a tiny little one.
If I may, has the little guy found courage to Adventure? Is he ready to Explore The World (your couch)? Or does he prefer the comfort of his cozy blanket bed? (This is the correct answer)
(He is such a tiny baby I canNOT believe a cat creature can be pompom-sized but the little one can probably fit in one hand from the picture except I probably won’t be able to bring myself to even pick him up and gosh it must be so terrifying and stressful I can’t even imagine. 4 weEKS?? That’s not a kitty that’s a nugget, a chimken nunget, and he’s so young his fur is just chick-fuzz sticking out all over the place and oh my gosh h
I believe that love can save the world

So, I think we’ve all seen Cat’s post, but how is Pichael taking her role as older sister?
Pichael loved the baby when she was too sweet to body slam her (yesterday) but today is a different story and pichaels are a highly protected species <3

Hi! I came across your post answering an ask ahout your most ✨controversial takes✨ on the world of dogs from back in April.
I read that you thought the AKC should not allow "professional handlers", and saw that you also seemed to distinguish these from breeders and owners. I've never given it much thought, but I think I would've assumed a handler was just another word for "owner" on my own.
What's the difference between these things, and why do you take your stance against handlers?
(I can infer what a breeder is as opposed to the others lmao, so I guess I'm asking about owner vs handler vs "professional" handler)
In dog conformation the dogs are handled by a handler when they go into the ring. This handler does not have to be the owner and in many instances is not. Professional handlers are just what they seem: people that handle dogs at dog shows for a living. A good handler knows how to make the dog look good, not just from a grooming standpoint, but when moving around a ring. Hiring a pro handler outsources this knowledge, time needed, and skill to somebody else.
There are several problems with this for me:
1.) dog shows, especially at the upper levels, are highly politicized. Hiring the ~right~ handler could give your dog the upper hand from a dog of equal or better value handled by somebody “lesser”. It keeps you and your dogs in the in-crowd.
2.) A dog that shows or “campaigns” a lot becomes known to judges, has more opportunities etc. When dogs are shown by professional handlers the owner/breeder is not always going with them and dogs can be on the road with their handlers going to show after show for months and even years at a time. This is not something the average purebred dog owner can afford.
3.) professional handlers are NOT cheap and conformation dog shows aren’t either. Having the monetary means to hire a well respected pro handler is not feasible for most people. This sets the people who already have the means to compete in dog shows and campaign their dogs year round leagues above people who cannot afford this. This further pinches top dog shows into a 1% that is near impossible to break into for new people, people from marginalized backgrounds, young people, etc.
4.) because of the competitive nature of modern dog shows and it becoming a “sport” instead of an evaluation of the quality of breeding stock you get people willing to look the other way on corrective grooming, poor temperaments, non correct structure to have “their people” win, to have their friends win, to have the people they are connected to win. Dog shows are not an even playing ground and very much an unspoken club of who is “in” and “out”. The culture and ability of hiring pros to take your dog around the country, to groom your dog, to show your dog ensures it stays this way.
In my opinion dogs should be lightly bathed and put into the rings with their owners/breeders/co-owners. Nothing more. This would imo, better level the playing ground and provide more equity in the purebred dog world.

One thing I love about the doberman is the unique combination of very different breeds they come from.
You can see the terrier in her head. You can see the shepherd in her behavior (bite leg, bark-to-make-it-move, arrange friends into circle, patterns-patterns-patterns).

The only thing that worked for my collie with The Screams was to cover his crate. Same exact problem, not scared of the crate no separation anxiety just massive FOMO. The combination of being able to see the stuff he was missing angered him beyond belief.
unfortunately with the baby monitor I have set up I can personally attest to the fact that Kep will have The Screams even when the crate is totally covered 🥲
