help I'm obsessed with the warring mother robins who unhappily share a nest
facebook post with a collection of photos and video of a huge clutch of robin eggs and two adult robins squished together in the same nest:
"I’ve had robins on my porch every year. This year has been quite interesting! On Sunday I found two eggs in the nest and by Tuesday afternoon there were 8 eggs! I had never seen that many. So I did a little bit of research and found out that 8 eggs means they were likely laid by two different females. So I set up a camera to see what would happen. And much to my surprise there are two females caring for the eggs. They are NOT happy to be sharing the nest. But they are stubborn and neither mother is willing to leave her eggs. I read that usually the robins are so territorial that one mother will leave. During the day they kick each other out of the nest taking turns sitting on the eggs. Then at night they both have such a strong instinct to sit on the eggs all night that they BOTH sit on the nest. One bird sits on the other. They fight and peck at each other constantly! Although they seem to have come to some sort of understanding and tolerate each other much better now. Here are some pictures and videos of these very stubborn and devoted mother robins. I can tell them apart by their markings by their eyes. And I can tell they are both females by the way the mothers settle onto the eggs and cover them with their brood patch. 
Have you ever seen two females sit on the nest at the same time!?

Guy who sexually harassed me in high school just donated $20 to my dad’s gofundme. Definitely don’t have conflicting feelings about that.

There’s a real link between AI writing and Silicon Valley meal replacement drinks and the entire fuckin swath of maximizing the human experience and it’s that they view pleasure as being unhelpful to life. I don’t want a drink that replaces a meal, I don’t want a book summary, I want to savor things

When it’s your birthday and mom makes you wear a stupid hat and pose for pictures when you just wanna eat your special treat and play with your new toy
Grey and white tabby cat wearing a sparkly blue headband that says “happy birthday” with multi-colored candles topped with stars on it looking down with frustration. His ears are being pushed slightly forward by the headband making his face looked a bit squashed. He’s clearly displeased with the scenario.

It's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

Awhile back the teen boy some houses down asked if he could park on the cement pad behind my house since the alley doesn’t reach his place( I said sure because I haven’t been using it). Y’all, he cleaned the entire pad and today I saw him clearing fallen trees from mine and my neighbor’s back yards.
