so you think you can stone miette and spit in miette’s eye?? so you think you can love miette and leave miette to DIE?? oh mother!! can’t do this to me mother!!!

inthefallofasparrow

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
Kicked like the football, no escape from reality
Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see
Miette’s just a poor cat, with a poor body
Because she’s easy trip, easy fall, little sly, little slow
Anywhere Mother goes doesn’t really matter to miette, to miette…

Mama, just killed miette!
Put a foot against her side like the football, now miette died!
Mama, life had just begun,
But now you’ve gone and thrown it all away!
Mama, oooh! Jail for one thousand years!
… I sometimes wish I’d never been born at all!

Anonymous asked:

Is feeding ducks bread actually bad? I've heard some people say it is, others that it's a myth. Some say it's bad because their digestive system can't handle it, others say it's bad because male ducks will start harassing female ducks bc of their free time (that they'd normally spend looking for food). Thank you😊

is-the-owl-vid-cute answered:

It’s genuinely unhealthy for them. They cannot process it correctly, and it lacks the nutrition they need (I don’t know that any animal can live off bread alone, especially white bread, but people over feed ducks so they stop going to get real food since they aren’t hungry).

One consequence of an all-bread diet is Angel wing, which sounds more pleasant than it is.

Angel wing is caused by poor nutrition leading to damages to bone development and structural issues with the joints. The wing grows twisted and malformed when feathers come in and put stress on the weakened ligaments, the tips of the wings generally face backwards and the wing can neither close nor extend past the elbow in severe cases. This can happen to one or both wings and develops due to ducklings and other young waterfowl having poor nutrition growing up.

It isn’t any better for adults. It can cause poor feather development, lethargy, crop stasis, joint problems, fertility issues, and ultimately death. Further, uneaten bread promotes algae to bloom out of control as it feeds on the yeast.

Please do not feed ducks bread.

@is-the-owl-vid-cute what can we feed ducks then? Is there something healthier to give them? Or should people just not feed them?

is-the-owl-vid-cute

Peas, cracked corn, grapes, duck feed, etc.

Look up what treats and meals are good for pet ducks, it’s generally safe for feral and wild ducks too.

TIL “Yankee Doodle” was written by the British to mock americans. “Doodle” is thought to come from the German “dödel”, meaning “fool” or “simpleton” and “macaroni,” a flamboyantly stylish type of dress, painting the Yankees as morons who thought placing a feather in one’s cap made them a “dandy.”

so you’re telling me that “stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni” would be like saying “wrote a G on his belt and called it gucci”

beggars-opera

It’s ironic because they don’t look at US as real people.

remember that members of congress have the blood of innocent people on their hands

remember that humans are never monsters. The worst of evils are always done by people who laugh and joke at the dinner table, and do not think much of the people they’ve killed
