Devi, to asklemmy in What's your automatic vacuum's name?

Mine is Rosie, the maid in the jetsons, cause it's the future and I have a cleaning robot.

Devi, to asklemmy in What is the most unusual spirit you have in your home bar?

Pisang Ambon, banana liqueur, I tried it in a bar in Spain, really liked it, and bought it. But what do you do with Banana Liqueur in your house? Nothing mixes well with that. Occasionally I sip it, but I've had it a decade and drunk maybe a third.

Devi, to asklemmy in Do grown-ass lions and other big cats enjoy standard cat-treats?

Raindance? He's a bobcat.

There's videos online of captive tigers doing all those things.

This is my favourite video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J11uu8L8FTY

Devi, to asklemmy in How to pull rocks out of pipe in the ground?

Blue tack and a stick? Like stick the rocks to it then pull out?

Devi, to asklemmy in Lemmings without bidet: how do you deal with your period?

I'm wondering if there's a medical condition here. What is happening to need showers between tampons?

Devi, to asklemmy in What makes a (good) monarch?

I think it's pretty similar to what makes a good person, empathy, kindness, that sort of stuff.

A lot of the monarchs better thought of are the ones who made social reforms, bettering the lives of others much lower down the totem pole.

Like all people, it's kind of impossible to be all good, so even with the good ones there's awful stuff there, but it's all relative.

Devi, (edited ) to asklemmy in You have to spend the rest of your life in a micronation. Which do you choose?

Does the vatican count? I'd get into the archives and make it my lifes work to find all the secrets.

Plus it's pretty cool there, there's people who do spend their lives there, and always visitors from round the world to hang out with.

Devi, to asklemmy in Hot tub owners: any tips? any regrets?

You need the chlorine, you need to always put the cover on, and you need the net to get the bugs out.

It feels much less luxury when you come out in the morning to a green tub full of flies and spiders.

Devi, to archaeology in Many prehistoric handprints show a finger missing. What if this was not accidental?

I used to work at a zoo and a lot of the older keepers had a finger or part missing to some animal or another back when health and safety was less, used to be common in factories too, Tony Iommi lost bits in a factory and has spoken about how it wasn't that unusual.

Devi, to asklemmy in What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?

Lot's of comments about dominance. This is an old erronous theory about dog behaviour based on a botched study. Dogs hump for many reasons, sexual is the obvious one, but also being nervous or poorly socialised.

What you should do is stop the behaviour, move your dog or theirs away and tell the owner to come get their dog.

If it happens in certain scenarios you can also stop it before the behaviour, so a common scenario is two dogs are playing, one dog gets overstimulated and then jumps on to hump, in that scenario you'd want to watch for earlier signs of overstimulation, wanting to stop, panting heavily, whale eyes, and stopping the play at that point.

Devi, to asklemmy in What is the most unusual spirit you have in your home bar?

I'm sure there's one you could but the one I have curdles the milk. That was one of the first things I tried.

Devi, to asklemmy in Which items/products were you once able to get from local shops on a whim that you now more or less have to order online?

All the little doohickeys that you don't need all the time, like plug converters, extension leads, puncture repair kits, a good range of screws.

Local shops might have something, but never the one you want because it's just not economical to keep a good range in stock.

Devi, to comicstrips in Ornithologists are assholes.

I'm with the ornithologists. Herpetology is weird.
