@DennisWormald If I'm sitting on the couch, my dog will come and lick my neck/jaw if she needs something. Once I'm up, she shows me whether it's food or the door she wants. If I'm not on the couch, she "summons" me with her bell and then shows me. It works well!

@DaweGemma @DGlaucomflecken Maybe he still doesn't, since he never saw a presentation about it.

@thanh_neville So I'm not starting a 2-hour cleanup process at 10 PM. Having time to run the dishwasher twice before heading to bed at a decent hour takes most of the stress out of hosting for me.

@DennisWormald Curiosity question: do tripaws have unique medical needs? Joint support meds so their altered gait doesn't harm them, maybe?

@SeeJaneMarie Pay more attention (whatever that means to you) to people who are older than you, and less to people who are younger?

[Katherine Struthers @werdnord]

@DennisWormald When people are asking their two dogs "who did the thing" and one "admits it" by crouching, could it be because he remembers doing something he's been punished for in the past, i.e. it was him? Or is he just the one who got nervous?

@JeanniePrinsen @sewistwrites I get annoyed with the people who would respond with "you can buy one". I didn't need to be informed of that. If someone said "if you don't find one to borrow, they're cheap at X store", that wouldn't bug me, but I know that buying exists.

@lurioosi @MrsLeahsMom @emilykmay I didn't take it either of the ways you interpreted it. I understood it to be an example of a man taking on mental load, offered as an example for people who don't always understand mental load when women describe what it looks like for them.

@AmolAgarwal95 @doctorORbust Are those all benign?

The inaction & apathy shown by Manitoba Premier & City of Winnipeg is a serious message to other killers targeting Native women. Interpret it how you like.
We know what it infers.

@MaintenancePod Gen X female here whose musical taste is extremely peccable. One outta three ain't bad. :)

@confettinoodles @fatfabfeminist But that would also mean they are probably looking for a tasty sugar-free or low-sugar alternative to carbonated drinks, and offering suggestions to other people in the same position. Isn't that good?

@DrJenGunter Is "roughly 40 years after menarche" correct?

@kittyshawwrites @DrSamiSchalk I like a Lemon Blueberry Gin and Tonic for similar reasons. (served InA glass, with 2 ice Qbs)

@j_ptrsn @RottenInDenmark Genuine question: if your boss said "would you do x if you have time" would you interpret that as "I'd like you to do x; if you won't have time to do it soon, let's talk"?

@IfBooksPod I wonder how John Gray thinks same-sex relationships work. Do two men just text occasionally from adjoining caves? Maybe you broke up last week and you don't even know yet.

@christinepeirce Dry mouth spray: a possible alternative to mints when needed.

@erinmhk Bucolic is the one that's always bugged me. Ugly sounding word for a pretty concept.
