I know it's perfectly fine to eat but I have a mental block because I have OCD and mould of any kind makes me want to remove my eyes and throw them into the sun.

The trick is to always have a smaller second sock on underneath the first one like those Russian nesting dolls smh

Meanwhile my socks keep mysteriously vanishing in the dryer. I think the dryer monster keeps stealing them and taking them to the sock dimension to be with their kind.

Unfortunately that leaves their partners lonely and only one half of each pair seems to ever go missing. It’s quite sad.

If you have a lot of voters, you can control said electors using gerrymandering. So, depending on how many snakes you have, gerrymander to always have snake majorities. They always win.

this is because in the US, most states are winner take all. If you win a state, no matter the margin, you get all the votes for that state.

I was taught how the electoral college works in 8th grade.

The American electoral system is wacky, and according to the The Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929, each state is supposed to have a ratio of 30,000:1 in the house of reps.

So... California would be op with

1317 votes. We probably need to redo our government, because that seems like alot of reps. probably need a bigger building to house those peeps.

I barely even understand it and I’ve lived here all my life. It’s still weird how the electoral college trumps the popular vote and electors can also just decide to not vote for who the people of that state voted for if they want? It’s rare but in some places it’s perfectly legal and their votes are still counted.

Look, I'm not going to, because I have no snakes in Waywards Edge of whom to give citizenship too. So there would be no reason, as our climate is mid 50's to low 40's in summer and -20's to low -40's in winter.

Well I don't want snakes. Also, it won't help them. Snakes are adapted to the environment of deserts, land that doesn't have snow, and Florida. We are a colder region with alot of snow, and we aren't florida. Forcing an adaptation to an animal wouldn't help them.

I think the only venomous snakes around here are rattlesnakes, which are obviously the politest of snakes since they usually at least try to warn you before biting. Just don’t step on them while they’re asleep. Otherwise I’ve handled plenty of nonvenomous snakes and I’ve never been scared of them. I think they’re pretty neat.

Spiders on the other hand are freaky even if they’re pretty small and I hate pretty much everything about them even though they can’t do anything other than wave their legs around or angrily vibrate their web, maybe jump on me if it’s a jumping spider. I know what it’s like to be unreasonably scared of a thing that can’t hurt you.

So yeah snakes are welcome here and can have rights as long as they don’t bite anyone. If they have human rights they can be charged with assault and battery too.

Does anyone want my spiders?
