Do you have the figure?

No but I can start working on it with this virus I could eat lots of chips and gain 200 lbs.

I'm actually losing weight because of this virus. I'm finding it very hard to find my vegan junk food So I've been eating extremely healthy besides the vegan nachos that I just made

You could always think if you needed to shoot someone to shoot too high or too low. May be enough to scare the creep.

I got to the point that I was taking the roos to a vet to euthanize. I just couldn't use an axe or anything violent. Now I put a tube down their throat and tube 45/60 ml of vodka. Eventually they fall asleep and die. A lot of times I hold them till it's over.

I got a boning knife and did it myself. I thought I'd be a ninny about it but I wasn't. It put food in my families bellies. If you knew me face to face you'd laugh that someone like me actually butchered a chicken.

I think a lot of people need to go outside and spend less time on their phones. I spend about an hour a day on mine because honestly I'm getting so tired of the attitudes and rude people in the world at this point.

Yesterday when we went to go get pizza, a woman held the door open for my husband and he said thank you and she gave him the most disgusted look...

I understand that people are cooped up and such, but people really need to start being nicer. I honestly can't stand the snippy attitudes and the holier than thou attitudes.

I have really noticed that people have disgusting frowns on their face when they are out in public. Is life really that bad?

People should start finding positives in their day instead of focusing on all the negative.

I need to work on this hahah today I’ve been better and haven’t been on my phone that much but even when I’m not on it, I still have a lot to work on

I’m not normally a very negative person and mostly pretty happy but anxiety causes me to fixate on stuff sometimes or replay it over and over and also, I am the worst to myself!! Horribly nasty and would never treat or talk to a friend the way I do myself

WOW what an amazing function!! I thank you very much!! Also, I agree. I do too... including right then. I tend to be a little too crazy about things that annoy me online . I apologize to everyone- I think I was overeacting anyways.
It’s probably my nerves now that all this corona stuff has been getting progressively more extreme. I don’t know about you guys, but my temper is a lot shorter and I almost burst into tears for the first time in a long time the other day. Oh, man, are my emotions messed up!

I think we can all sympathize.

At going on near 700 pages everything under the sun has been discussed on here (within the rules) and there have been a few testy exchanges before...bound to happen.
It's good to know that BYC has very talented moderators and staff behind the scenes to take care of things and there is a report function if you think something is off base. Moderators are fair people and they help keep things running smoothly for the good of the entire community.

Being outside means fresh air, sunshine and natural endorphins so it makes sense. Not to mention it usually involves movement which helps expand the lungs and helps circulation.

When I had pneumonia even just sitting outside felt good.

Just be outside away from people.....or infected tigers.....actually any tiger really....

Have you guys seen Tiger King yet? I hear it’s crazy haha

There's a women's sumo wrestling team in Japan. WHY???

Why not?

Onions don't need really deep soil.....save the 5 gallon buckets for deeper rooted things.....plant onions in shallower pots. I grow bunching onions (like the green onions at the store) in just 4" of dirt and close together.

Thank you!! Good to know!! For some reason I just assumed it would need to be deep because they grow underground haha

What else could I grow in 5 gallon buckets? And would they need drain holes? I have some pots but I feel like buckets would be a good idea.

There is a “Chicken Farmer Barbie”. View attachment 2079139

And sumo wrestler Barbie might be something someone might create to show.

I need this one!

That's good to hear! We all need GOOD MOJO right now.

Very true!! There’s enough bad mojo going around. My animals and the sun are helping with the good mojo.
I love chicken watching haha and watching my fish is very relaxing.
