If you get the chance to, always thank cleaning/sanitation staff such as janitors, maids, and trash collectors. Make it known that you appreciate and value the job they do.

Cleaning/sanitation jobs are some of the most vital jobs in society, without them we'd be buried in our own trash and all public spaces would quickly become unsafely unhygienic. Despite how vital their role is to society they're often treated poorly and generally looked down on by the rest of society. Treating them with respect and kindness and letting them know you appreciate the job they do can go a long way in making their day and their job in general better, and you do want happy cleaning/sanitation workers because of how important they are.

Haven't been active here for a while, but this, this I just had to reblog.

Sorry for being away for so long without prior notice! One of my guinea pigs, Yasushi, got ill in winter and for a while there had to be hand-fed several times a day; then needed to be given medicine twice daily, which was no fun at all for anyone involved; and just before Easter, he died. Turns out he had cancer.

The other piggy, his BFF Wolke, was devastated and needed extensive cuddles every day. He never really liked cuddles before. Now he's a total cuddlebug!

Then, in late April, I got two new piggies from a local family whose sows (they have two) had given birth in March, within 2 days of one another. So, now I have a small family of three! But the little ones have just hit puberty, one markedly more strongly than his cousin, so, oof.

Oh well. I plan on returning to (active participation in) Tumblr at some point, but I'll have my hands full with ever-changing piggy stuff for the foreseeable future.

(The little ones are called Yossi (slightly bigger and heavier than Grunkle Wolke already) and Wesley (tiny and I think he'll stay that way). Yossi is the puberty-ey one. He's also a bit of an escape artist.)

Also, about that gym thing, gyms were closed during the lockdown, so even if she'd have wanted to go, she couldn't. If she, in the Before Times, went to the gym regularly (or even just every now and then), suddenly not being able to go, and for a prolonged period too, probably contributed to the weight gain.

... But only "borderline" sexist? How is this guy (Mr. "She's there to be pretty and sexy for me and to take care of all household stuff all by herself and also of me, a full grownup who can't be arsed to prepare his own meals or those of his children") not fully sexist?

I kinda think this dude needs to die. "I convinced my wife to starve herself so I would want to fuck her more, but now she's not enthusiastic about me fucking her because she's experiencing starvation. This is obviously her fault"
