Oh, and yeah, we have rats. Smart urban rats. I don't want to encourage rats. And call me weird, but I don't want worms in the house. Which is funny coming from me because I'm pretty pro-slimy things. But, no.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
We had grain moths a few months ago, which I was too skeeved by to deal with...until I remembered the worm population down the hall. If anyone is considering it, I would note that yes, worms are kind of gross but since they don't like light they generally don't go anywhere and dive down into their bedding when you open the container.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't have anything growing that I'd fertilise, and I don't have anywhere to put a colony, really. If there was apartment building-level composting I'd cheerfully sort and dispose appropriately, because I am more grossed out by the idea of stuff rotting in my garbage bin than of worms eating it. The moth infestation that squicked the living shit out of me--THEY WERE IN MY FOOD. As long as I'm not competing for resources, I'm a lot less delicate.
I wonder if braids would feel too heavy and cornrows to distracting
I don't think cornrows would be distracting. I mean, any more than having hair is.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Here it is! Taxidermied bullfrog playing bass.
Awww....

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Awesome!
Why do I think it might not make it to your brother?

I really want to keep it, but I'm going to give it to him. And I'll casually mention, based on his reaction, that I will be happy to give it a home if he thinks it's horrifying.
But he won't. I mean, this is him: [link] If you put overalls on the bullfrog, they'd be indistinguishable.

Interesting re the recent badminton scandal in the Olympics. During the rings competition in gymnastics tonight, they were just idly talking about one of the competitors ( the gold medal winner ) having done a downgraded routine in the semis because the top ranked finisher goes first in the finals which is considered a disadvantage. It's not that different, though at least he didn't ham it up the way the badminton teams apparently did.
