That’s damn cute and today is a bad day so I needed to see something like this.
Hate to anthropomorphise things but it looks like it’s smiling, like a big shit eating grin.
I hope your day gets better.
Thank you. I’m sure it will, if not I’ll go to bed lol
I hope you one day find something better that will bring a smile to your face other than eating shit.
Sending you good vibes, internet friend!
Thanks friend.
Don’t call animals “things” but I see what you mean
Why?
I could have used it I guess as I don’t know the gender of it, but what’s wrong with things? I love animals and I didn’t mean to use it in a derogatory way.
Why didn’t you say:

Or stuff still feels more neutral. But I’m not a native speaker of English so maybe “thing” isn’t as derogative as it sounds to me
in this case, thing isn’t derogative to a native speaker, in my opinion. I can see where your confusion is, though.
my tip would be to look at the other words in the sentence to try and grasp the tone of the entire statement. I know it’s difficult, but you’ll get there… good luck!
Thing is a synonim of stuff and they don’t really have any kind of different connotation. Stuff might be more coloquial, which doesn’t mean thing is formal, I wouldn’t use stuff in a form setting, that’s all.
As the other person said, I just don’t believe it’s an issue for native English speakers to use “thing” in that context.
I just today watch an episode where someone said “you are the thing I love most” to a person as if it was a sign or something but it’s just selective memory.
I’m sorry for being stupid I guess. We are all here to learn.
BABY BIRDS DO NOT WORK LIKE THIS, GOOD NIGHT
This cutie is 45% beak 😂
It’s adorable but it’s bigger than just the white fluff of feathers that we can see in this picture. It does fool the eye a bit but you can see the outline of the rest of it’s body going down behind the branch.
I wasn’t sure when i first saw this but had to image search myself to check.
Yeah, the framing is cutting off/hiding most of the bird.
Don’t lie We all know that’s a beanie baby someone propped up in a tree.
Yeah this just further solidifies my belief that birds aren’t real
Can… can we snuggle it?
It would be rude not to.
