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.
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.
That’s a onecan.
Now I wonder what a threecan would look like. Must be fearsome
Biblically accurate borb.

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.
I am fully convinced that’s a sock puppet. There is no bird in this picture.
Well of course there’s no bird in this picture. Birds aren’t real!
Can… can we snuggle it?
It would be rude not to.
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
