This. I worked at a petstore and constantly had to warn people that the bowls were trash and it WOULD outgrow the bowl. Nobody listened and they either ended up having to buy a bigger tank later or it died.

I also had an old customer who had one single goldfish in a large tank. He told me he had it 20 years after winning it at a carnival and he was a full foot long and loved bloodworms. I love people who treat fish like living things and not expendable.

Apparently Utah’s government was a super popular account on tiktok. It feels like all they’re doing is isolating themselves from the youth vote, but now that I’ve looked into the “bipartisan” support, it’s just one democrat. Tiktok was largely quoted as the reason many zoomers were motivated to vote in the midterms, so a lot of this feels like an attempt to hinder the democratic vote.

I did NOT expect this show to be as cozy as it was. I love EVERY character, even the bad ones. And having the actors just use their normal accents adds to that. It just feels like actors acting out a story, like the old days of traveling stage plays. It’s sweet, and it’s funny and the set design and costumes, rather than being accurate, are exaggerated to mimic our modern view of who these people are. Like the king being very flamboyant and over the top and gaudy and colorful.

Though I appreciated the little details like the face patches on the French aristocrats. We almost NEVER see those in period films/shows centered around the baroque(?) period.
