    Still be careful around that stuff. A lot of flea medication can cause siezures. Oral flea meds are carcinogenic, so handle with care (dogs and cats usually die of old age first though). “Safe” for animals usually means “safe enough not to cause short term harm with assumptions that the animal has 10 years of life left.”

    I had two chickens that got mauled by the neighbors dogs. One died, but I tried everything I could in a frenzy to administer aid. I went to Tractor Supply and bought all the shit. One medication, Blue Coat, comes out in a shiny blue mist. The living chicken is still blue months later. I also later found out it had alcohol which burns on the wound. Felt bad about that, but I’m not a vet, and that fucker still lives (has a bald spot at it’s neck, but meh, still covered with feathers. Hoping she’s got enough to cover her for winter.) So yeah, blue coat may work, but I sprayed them with like 3 ointments and rubbed neosporin and gave them antibiotics, so who knows what helped more, and the animal will look like Wonka’s Violet probably forever.




  • US population outnumbers the military 342 to 1 (maybe 200 to 1 if not counting elderly and children), and the current administration keeps proving time and time again the military means fuck all to them. This is where Trump and his fucksticks are failing spectacularly. Previous dictators have bribed the shit out of their militaries to generate favor and compliance. Trump insults them, places them in dumbass situations, finds ways to screw them from pay, etc. The ICE funding was a way to create a private army of devotees. But a large portion of them are gravy seals, chucklefucks who think top score on COD will help them in actual battles. They got ran out of towns by bag toting grannies for fucks sake. At least, I tell myself this at night to sleep without living in constant fear of full out slavery and dogmatic oppression. And yes, I do realize that the civilian population has a large amount of support for him, but many of them will hipefully change their minds if it finally affects them.
