I'd 100% ruin a kid's life and my own if I had to take care of one full time. They're not for me I've always known that. I'm much better suited for being the cool aunt
I was thinking of moving to Germany but I just can't now. Sweet popcorn? In a theater? Half the reason I even go to theaters is so I can eat enough buttery topping with some popcorn mixed in to feel sick. The absolute madness of putting sugar on popcorn, I'd sooner eat a bowl of unpopped kernels
But for real all you salty/savory popcorn lovers out there: If you haven't tried it yet put some powdered brewers yeast on your popcorn. That stuff is magical. Goes weirdly well on pizza too
Axolotls are nearly if not already extinct in the wild. Hobbyists and researchers are the only thing keeping them in existence. Everyone adores seeing my axolotls and get emotionally invested in them almost immediately, which provides a very tangible in person thing for them to think about. It's a good jumping off point for talking about what's happening with lakes and rivers.
There are some things we shouldn't take from the wild. Like I believe sourcing completely natural live rock is unethical as corals have it hard enough and it's super easy to farm our own live rock. Some things it's fine and can even help preserve them or teach people about conservation. I learned so much back when I took care of a marine tank. I have a much stronger understanding of how intricate and fragile our ecosystem can be and people should be allowed to learn and see that for themselves
