I wish the mom was in the picture because the difference is really pronounced.

It's still a baby, so hopefully it makes it.

We've always had groundhogs around, but only the usual brown ones until now.

I need to go reapply the anti-critter stuff to the hedge of highbush cranberry plants I'm trying to grow because he has been chowing down on them, but other than that, yes.

It really depends on how you interacted with Reddit. A lot of my engagement was with smaller subreddits that sometimes had user bases that weren't necessarily the most tech savvy. I'm not sure how long it took some of the older people on r/quilting to find it, but I'm sure it will take them longer to find the Lemmy version.

I live in a part of the country that imports shelter dogs from other places because our municipal shelters have so few (and almost all of the few they do have are pitbulls). We are fortunate to live near a large nonprofit animal welfare organization though, and they run a huge network to move unwanted dogs primarily from the South to rescues in the Northeast. They do charge about $500 for puppies adopted from them. It's less for older dogs, and they frequently have discounted adoption days to make space for new animals. They do all the initial shots and the spay or neuter along with treating other major medical issues they know about. We once fostered a dog for them that they were treating for heartworm.

They just want their animals in good homes, so it's not a hassle at all to adopt there. The application is very simple, they don't do home visits, and you cannot apply in advance. We've gotten all our current pets there, and I've been glad to support them.

I'm going to say The Last Starfighter. It's quite old at this point, and it's derivative of a lot of other things, but it is a lot of fun.

That doesn't look like beginner work to me! Very well done!

I installed naildown prefinished hardwood in the majority of my house. It was the first major project we did, so therefore the one we would live with the longest, and I wanted to love it and really improve the character of the house. Installing it really wasn't that much worse than cheaper click lock floors.

If you don't feel that strongly about it, LVP has gotten much better.

Thank you! I was really happy with it once I solved my frosting issue.

They think they are too big to fail and enough users will stick around up voting repost bots that it will be profitable.

I wonder if she was attempting a free birth? If she was, I hope more details come out because it's a terrifying, dangerous trend and the Facebook groups that support it memory hole bad outcomes.
