I'm sorry but I do not see how this is linked to the question of white genocide. Please remember that this is a serious and complex topic, it is really no laughing matter. I choose to treat it with the gravity it deserves, while questioning both narratives on the issue.

I don't think anything can smell as bad as Asmongold

owls: clean themselves daily by preening, bathe in shallow bodies of water

I’ve worked with all kinds of owls. Screech owls, Great Horned Owl, Burrowing owls…none of them are stinky when they’re not covered in shit.

Asmongold by a fucking nautical mile

Screech owls are also cute as heck

[–] Lussy@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Screech and burrowing owls are the absolute cutest. Took care of two old ladies and they were mind numbingly adorable

It's a tough competition

Have you ever used a dead rat as an alarm clock because when the light hit it long enough it stank enough to wake you from your slumber. Or did you wipe your rotten bleeding gums blood on the walls.

Ass man goul.

Do you hoard dead rats? If not, then I think you are good.

Have you heard of owl pellets?

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I've dissected them before and they were odorless. I dunno if that was some kind of special cleaning done beforehand, but they didn't smell when you opened them. It was like someone tangled up a bunch of bones in a cotton ball and dipped it in tar.

[–] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

It's because they're pretty much down to bones and keratin. Anything that could putrify has already been scoured off by the bird's stomach acids and enzymes.

dirt owl > asmon > shitbird

where does bmf fit in?

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago

Here's the difference: A rodent will only last a few seconds/minutes in an owl's nest.

The only time I think about Asmongold is whenever other people see fit to bring him up for some inexplicable reason. And even then it's for about 3 seconds, in which my brain says "who cares" and then I go back to eating corn soup chips.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

and then I go back to eating corn soup chips.

What is that? Is it like corn chips you dip in soup?
