That's not true. Chickens are fantastic at getting rid of bugs.

Got a tick problem? Not anymore.

However you will now have rodent problems and require something to take care of that: Terriers are great at that. So are cats.

...she swallowed the horse to catch the cow, she swallowed the cow to catch the goat, she swallowed the goat to catch the dog, she swallowed the dog to catch the cat, she swallowed the cat to catch the bird, she swallowed the bird to catch the spider (that wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her), she swallowed the spider to catch the fly. I don't know why she swallowed the fly. Perhaps she'll die. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Will they eat the rodents? Yes. They will eat anything. edible or not.

Will you still have a rodent problem? Yes you will.

AI is going to replace my sheets, that should be changed once a week to maintain a high level of hygiene.

I know that this isn't the point but I absolutely can't stand the word "juice" to describe meat drippings.

Juice is from a fruit! When I see juice to describe meat drippings, all I can think of is someone squeezing a big steak and squeezing all the "juice" out.

Anyway, commit message is on point. Add a small pinch of flour to thicken the "juice" and you'll have gravy.

From Middle English jus, juis, from Old French jus, jous, from Latin jūs (“broth, soup, sauce”), from Proto-Indo-European *yúHs, from *yewH- (“to mix (of meal preparation)”).

Sounds like the right word to me.

You sound like one of those people who take issue with non-dairy milks being called milks too.

Is that bad? I love almond milk but I feel like it deserves its own word. :P

Yes, it’s the rallying call of the dairy industry lobbyists trying to force ownership of a word and to hurt the sales of non-dairy milks.

Milk has referred to all manner of white thick drinking liquids for at least 800 years now, it is not solely the domain of animals.

I agree, we need more words. We lose words all the time, too, due to assumptive abuse.

What would you prefer it be called? It’s not blood, despite common misconceptions.
