I used to have 2 sugar gliders. Very high maintenance pets. They are very social and will get depressed without enough attention. They are also group animals and when you get them you adapt them to your scent as the “home tree”. This means you being gone for let’s say a vacation or something will stress them out to the extreme.
Since they are basically wild animals they have a very strict diet you also need to maintain, on top of them being picky eaters, can’t really give them the same food more than 2 days in a row or they won’t eat it. They often take a bite or two of food before throwing it and going for a new piece.
All that being said they can be very fun and loving animals. They live a long time and are quite smart. Their little hands look like people’s thumbs and all and they LOVE untying knots and anything plastic that crinkles. Had them through college and had a tapestry on every wall so it was fun letting them run around the apartment free and climbing where ever. Always a good laugh when someone was over and didn’t know they were out. They would lead across the room to get back to me or the cage and seeing someone freak out as they saw something dive bombing them out of their peripheral never got old. My favorite thing about them was this demonic noise called crabbing that they make when they are scared or upset.

30·2 years agoI don’t understand why we see Ben Shapiro posts all the time. Why do we care what he thinks. He’s irrelevant and here to make people rage. Stop engaging in his content and or sharing it with others. Let him scream into the void.

11·2 years agoMix of both. Some probably got paid to go there and lobby for said company or product. Others are probably thinking of potential jobs for after. We all know private sectors always pay more than government jobs.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I've felt intense love and heartbreak before and I don't think I could ever handle it again. Am I wrong for thinking that it doesn't get any better?
3·2 years agoNot sure where you got that people were threatened by your comment. If it has to do with your score, it’s because it’s a very narrow view, context had nothing to do with it. You shared your opinion I shared mine. Saying people feel threatened or that we didn’t understand the context because we didnt agree is exactly the point I’m making when it feels like you are a young person trying to pass for an older one.

152·2 years agoWith an opinion like that you sound like a teen trying to pass for someone old and wise. Love takes many forms and does not exclusively apply to romantic relationships, or people.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If Jesus is the son of God and Satan is the oposite of God, a literal antichrist would be Satan's father, which would be God since God gave life to Satan
10·2 years agoThat’s why God had to release part 2 of the bible, cuz he’s such a dick in the first book. Also why Satan rebranded as Santa.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Any recommendations for a privacy friendly smart watch?
6·3 years agoWhat kind of phone do you have/ what do you use to keep your phone private. I’m asking genuinely. I’ve always been a strong advocate of privacy but felt like i was alone and fighting an uphill battle until recently finding this sub. So I’m still very noobish with a lot of it.
Battery in/under the lid?
