Has she been eating and drinking normally? Is she about the same size as the other chicks? Does she have about the same amount of feathers? Basically, if she seems to be growing and feathering alright, the beak might not cause her any issues. She might be lethargic because of cold temperature, or just a lazy baby, chicks start showing little personalities sooner than you'd think!

    I recently watched a woman at work walk out of the stall, pick her lunchbox up off the counter next to the sink, and walk out without washing her hands. Double whammy of 🤢

    I read an article about aphantasia a couple days ago, just stumbled on it, and realized that I have complete aphantasia. I've been feeling a kind of vague depression about it ever since, like a new distinct feeling that something is missing, even though I've been like this my whole life. I started sobbing just reading the article, making these connections.

    I guess I'm just wondering if this is normal, did anyone else in this community grieve over the loss of... something we've never had anyway?

    I LOVE these, big big fan! They're at all the public-land hiking trails around me. Nice little trail map, often dry-erase notes over the glass marking flooded trails or temporarily protected areas. History lessons or something about what makes the area special. Single mittens and kit left like a makeshift lost and found. You know you're in for a really good hike when they have a sign in book! Such an underrated low-cost public service.

    Absolutely! I use the Libby app and a regular library card. They link up so you can read all the ebooks in your library system for free, just like checking a regular book out. Sometimes you have to wait for a popular book, which I usually try to appreciate as a rare exercise in patience but can be annoying of course. But it's actually free, no adds, simple to use.
