Welcome! When I quit, I wondered how long it would take before I went back. But I love it here so much that I never felt the need. Feel free to restart your subs as communities here on Lemmy!

If worm, why not worm shaped? If not butt, why butt shaped?

This reminds me lots of when Facebook started applying warnings/bans/etc retroactively to content without any context. I remember getting several wrist slaps in the same month for content I had shared a decade prior that really wasn't all that bad. But Facebook decided it was a problem and made me question what I was allowed to post in the future. It didn't take long after that for me to stop using Facebook completely.

I hadn't thought about it, but that would truly be the ideal situation. Imagine going to the store and all the eggs are from local's extra stock. I know it couldn't currently happen that way based on what regulations allow, but I can certainly imagine.

The fact that the upfront cost can be prohibitive and actual effort is involved but people are still doing it should tell you just how bad things have gotten. Plus, the more people that do it, the more they can teach others and help them out. I know people who got chickens after a neighbor got chickens and they saw how beneficial it was and if their neighbors can do it they certainly could as well.

They may actually be hurting themselves in the long run. The amount of people I know that have decided to get chickens since the pandemic has increased far more than I ever expected it would. And if you've ever had your own chickens before, you know that there's plenty to go around and you share with friends and neighbors. So not only are they permanently losing more customers to people getting chickens, they're also losing customers to friends of people that have chickens. Plus all these people are getting much higher quality eggs from happy chickens, so why would they ever go back? I know not everyone can, but, the more people that start raising chickens the better!

Don't forget to grab your Cheetos... In a cup!!!

Lol I just ate a bowl yesterday. It's one of those nostalgic foods for me that I just want sometimes. Especially good when you're sick or on a cold morning to warm you up.

I had a hedgehog similar to the one pictured many years ago. They only go criss-cross like that for 2 reasons: scared or angry. And you could definitely tell the difference between them. The one pictured looks quite angry and may very well be the embodiment of death. 10/10 for realism.
