Mike MacLeod @mmacleod.ca · 05/09/2026Because rabbits used to be omnivores, their digestive systems aren’t really well adapted to their current grass-heavy diet. To absorb all the nutrients they need, they have two kinds of poop: the dry pellets you might see in a rabbit pen, and the soft stuff that they poop directly into their mouths. 000
Mike MacLeod @mmacleod.ca · 03/09/2026Growing up an elder millennial, the way I understood it as a kid was Ms was short for Miss and both meant unmarried, Mrs meant married, and the name was the woman’s last name. Whether she took her husband’s last name was a separate matter, but you called her by whatever last name she wanted. 100

They mostly won't be as rude about it as Trump, but I think the idea that the tariffs end when Trump's presidency does is wishful thinking. 020
