What do you consider neurotic in a cat? Have you known many people who own outdoor cats? It's a rare story that doesn't end with "then an asshole in a truck ran him down", "I think a coyote got him", "I t

You say that like deserts are bad ecosystems that would be improved by ecological disruption and invasive species.

Ok, don't have outdoor cats because they live short lives with high risk of dying painfully. They definitely do stalk feeders and add to the stressors already in place for bird species. More than one thing can contribute to the reduct

Do you have a source for this?

Maybe they can take their own advice and proofread their writeup before posting it. I'm still not sure what step c is.

Not my Donald Rumsfeld. I feel like writing quote-on-quote takes away the ability of non-native speakers to search for and learn the basis of the idiom. I really don't see how it would be more understandable than just typing "quo

If that's what you'd call the sort of vertical, but mostly lateral launch they do when striking. My point was more that they can only extend themselves so far up a vertical object before they just fall over. A solid 4-foot fence

Why not? If you've got a hare to butcher, you'd likely want to split it. You could leave the carcass whole and roast it, but that's only one of the many ways to use the animal. If you want to argue over details that make li

I know the cost is going to be a couple thousand dollars. It's something that I'd be reasonably able to afford in the next few years if I made it a goal. It's value, however, is less to me than a lot of other things that wo

If we're splitting hares, I feel like it's more likely to confuse people whose first language isn't English. Why introduce an incorrect parsing that sounds similar? That's more likely to lead learners astray than help

>...no ambition to ever leave the continent. That's an interesting way to put it. I certainly wouldn't say I have much ambition to leave the continent either. If the time and money come up, there's places I'd like t

Cormorants as well. Very cool birds. I assume Anhingas are the same, but cormorants are less buoyant than most waterfowl because they need to dive deep from the water's surface. When they're just floating, you don't see muc

Anhingas. I was vaguely aware of the term devil bird for Anhingas, but I can't help but assume that they used it in the title to make people think it was some kind of dangerous invasive that was imported. There are standard common nam

>He installed a towering fence, which partially obstructs the view, to protect his golden retriever Elsa from rattlesnakes. How high is this fence? I feel like a 4-foot-high solid fence is more than plenty to keep rattlesnakes from jump

Oh, you asked why the sign was in the photo as though you thought it wasn't associated with the story in any way. It gives a little background context for the type of Catholic church whose pastor was interviewed. I don't know if

by msrenee 3y ago
That's presumably the sign outside the church of the pastor they interviewed. He puts up wooden crosses for each homicide. Makes sense if you've read the article.

Sorry, that was sarcasm. You were replying to someone that thought people worked crappy jobs because of some other reason besides they literally can't get anything better. Kind of mind-blowing that someone could delude themselves to

I didn't find out you could make a grilled cheese with mayo until a few years ago. My husband still won't even try it. In my region, I doubt that most people would be comfortable using mayo instead of butter.

You also have to consider the fact that many households' standard loaf on hand is white sandwich bread. There will always be a place in my heart for the squishy comfort of a slice of our locally-made white bread, but the fanciest butt

We're talking about the 50s. There was almost no fear of repercussions from being inappropriate towards women in the workplace. You might run into an angry husband or brother, and that was about it. It was the height of the housewife

Was she excluded from that world of informal exchanges due to pride, personality, or sexism? I can guess myself. That blurb doesn't necessarily mean that she was bad at networking.

Some of the lecturers at my local community college have regular jobs and do a course or two a year on the side. It's not their full-time job.

Those people affected must be so thankful to that reporter. I can't imagine what a relief it must have been for him to not only tell them what the problem was, but also get in contact with the company and get it rectified.

We're already looking at the human cost of some of the components needed for the batteries, like lithium and cobalt. That's what we'll be fighting wars over after we exhaust the supply of oil.

Oof. Glad she was alright. Both for her sake and your existence. There's so much danger on farms beyond the obvious machinery hazards. Grain silos terrify me. I've never dealt with them myself but have seen the aftermath of exp

Even if it doesn't explode, it molds if you pile it up before it's good and dry. That's the whole fun of baling hay. You've got to try to predict a two or three day window (or more depending on temp and humidity) where

In most cases, I do an initial sweep, then use my camera. If I'm backing from between two vehicles, I check the camera, then turn around and keep an eye for anyone coming from either side. The fisheye on the backup camera helps a lot
