And yet, Sows eating piglets common.
And piglets chew on each others tails, which is why they chop them. But still, as an advert tech?
IIRC both of those are a stress-reaction to intensive farming.
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Psst. Don't talk about pigs eating meat while Perkins is around.

Yes, my uncle farms pigs. Piglets and sow in a 20x20 pen.
I just mopped my bathroom ceiling. Hazard of lots of rust in my upstairs water means rust on the ceiling due to condensation.

Best porkchops I've ever had were at his farm.

I have a ridiculous amount of grading to do. I wouldn't if I never assigned work, but that seems unlikely. Oh man. Noah is asleep in bed with K and there is nothing I want to do more than join them. But if I do my grading now, it won't hang over me.

Honeymoon is over for friend's stepson a week out of inpatient treatment. Now more work begins. A few months until he hits 18 and they have no control, at which point, I predict tsuris for her husband. I've told them to stick with counseling. Me giving relationship advice is kinda comical, given I've never had one. But I watch people? Crossing fingers.

On Tuesday, K and I had dinner at Bacaro, a place that does the Italian version of tapas down by USC. The food was terrifyingly good -- scallops in a garlic butter sauce with fresh corn, pizza with bechamel sauce, one of the most amazing caprese salads with pesto.
But the best? Dessert: Grilled Nutella Panino. Holy mother of good. It had sliced strawberries and nutella inside with a sprinkling of powdered sugar on top. So delicious. Anyway, info on Bacaro here: [link] So good

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My dad had pigs for a while. But then he got tired of feeding them in winter, so he sold them. A week later the pigpen was destroyed by fire after being hit by lightening.
