Need to do homework but it's cold enough that Onion, who is already a huge cuddlebug, refuses to leave my side and I don't have the heart to make her readjust in the blanket nest when she looks so comfy.

I adjusted myself to sit up enough to balance the laptop on me, and she made a little "mrrp?" of confusion about why I was moving when obviously it's snuggle time.

I would die for this animal. Even if she woke me up this morning by slapping my face gently until I realized she wanted to be under the blankets instead of on top of them like normal.

For folks in the notes very upset that she only has two babies left: These baby possums are of dispersion size - they're big enough to leave mom and fend for themselves. These two are just the ones who haven't moved out yet.

Oh wow I had no idea they were so tiny when they left home! Our possums in Australia don't have as many babies so they're generally 1/3 to 1/2 the size of the mum when they get kicked out.

I would definitely assume a baby opossum was abandoned if I hadn't been told otherwise.

Every year wildlife rehabs are delivered many perfectly healthy baby possums for this exact reason and generally, it means they get a little boost of assured safety, food, and hydration before being released. Imagine, you're newly 18 and starting your adult life - you're just kind of walking around, maybe on your way to community college or something, and a Kindly Cosmic Horror picks you up, carries you to a fancy hotel where you are given several really excellent meals and maybe receive a series of vaccinations, then you are dropped into a resource-rich area approximately nearby where the first Kindly Cosmic Horror picked you up. This is how life is for young Virginia possums every spring.

why are you microwaving carbonated drinks that feels wrong.

IDK, most people hate it, but I'm also the person that purposely lets coke go flat because I like it better flat so me and carbonated drinks have a weird relationship.

microwaving aluminum specifically is known to cause arching, which can cause fires! (thick aluminum is fine, but thin aluminum like aluminum foil, and I assume the edge of an opened can is Not)

on top of that microwaving liquids can be dangerous as they get hot extremely quickly.

just search "microwave aluminum foil" on YouTube if ur curious lol

Ah. That would explain the popping sound. I assumed that was just my microwave being old. Good to note I shouldn't do that in the future.
