What a good boy 🥺 I hope he gets treats for protecting you from the thunder so well

It's the same with calico cats as well from what I understand, almost all are female.

Yep, to get calico coloring, cats must have two X chromosomes, so they will be female. If a male calico is born, it will be XXY. So that's a rare mutation to encounter, and those cats are always sterile too, so they're not passing along their mutation to any kittens either.

Ooooh yeah it is a dog. I thought they weren't including the cat who is on the bed but not cuddling 😂

Okay but like, there's a right and wrong way to count time and they're doing it wrong. This is 100% valid to report as a bug, and imo, incredibly helpful - especially compared to most of the bug reports I see! Idk what the context is here, but for the software I QA for work, this kind of mistake would break everything, and I'd report it as a bug. Their comment isn't a reply in a professional situation, but still, that reaction is extremely over the top. What an asshole

For my in-office keyboard I have Gazzew Boba U4 silent tactile switches. I'm very happy with them. I saw some advice that said not to lube them, which I gladly took to save myself the effort lol. I've been using them at work for 2.5 years now. And my coworker who (politely) complained about my keyboard being too loud before has not complained about this one 🙂

I use them on a Keychron K-series keyboard that originally came with brown switches. I did also upgrade the stabilizers on this one, my space bar was too loud.

I will say that I prefer my Keychron Q5 that I have at home. It was more expensive than the K-series, but it has better build quality. I haven't had to do any mods (the stabilizers it shipped with haven't bothered me) and I prefer the metal body of the keyboard.

Never see the hawks target them either, they fight back and mob predators.

Ooh cool! So just the other day, my husband saw a hawk grab a grey squirrel. And a squirrel buddy came over and attacked the hawk and rescued the first squirrel!! We've never seen or heard of anything like that before. These were grey squirrels.

Maybe squirrels are a lot more roughty toughty than I've been giving them credit for! 😁

Well I'm not sure about that, but that's a good point...

Polar bears have translucent hair that looks white, and black skin. Looks like black squirrels have black skin. So maybe it depends if this white squirrel still has black skin underneath 🤷‍♀️ I'm going to tell myself that the lil guy will be fine because that's a happier ending 😅

Hey, you/your sister should submit a report of this squirrel spotting!

There's an effort to map where white squirrels are showing up in North America. We did some research after seeing one in our neighborhood a few years back - like this one, ours wasn't albino, which you can differentiate because squirrels with albinism have red eyes.

Edit: this lil guy is probably better off in the snow than otherwise, better camouflage! 😍

American born to English ex-pats here. We also left out beer for Santa - and carrots for the reindeer.

We left cookies out too, I'll have to ask if the cookies (and maybe the carrots too) were just put back in the box/fridge, or what actually got eaten.

Edit: my dad says the beer and cookies were definitely eaten but "neither of those pair well with carrots" so apparently they just went back in the fridge. I'm not sure why my brother and I bothered with the carrots then 😂

Came here to say much the same thing!

• What is this "oneworkforce.org" source? I've never heard of this website before in my life.
• What is the study that came to these conclusions? This article makes zero reference to any university/research institute that funded the study, any peer-reviewed journal where the results are published, or even the title of a paper.
• This garbage statement at the end lol: "This article is based on verified sources and supported by editorial technologies." - Okay, TELL ME THE SOURCES!

Everyone's credibility warning sirens should be going off after looking at this "article."
