[@guardiansanimalrescuestate7289]

I was opening my box of IV medical supplies, and I let the box on the floor while I was organizing it. Well, my kitty Phoenix jumped in and was sharpening her claws and then just lay down in it. So I put it under the window for her. And she loves this box more then any cat condo and sharpening nail things I’ve gotten her. So my home health nurse and I (she’s a cat lover too), so we took some photos and then emailed it to the advanced infusion supply company. Guess what?? They put it in their newsletter and told me that it’s encouraging everyone to recycle their medical supply boxes. I get 8 every week. It’s crazy.

The big problem with those "Scary animal" videos is, if you go and actually watch them, most of them are cruel to both the human and the animal involved. Even if they're fake, their saying "It's okay to laugh at people who have massive, debilitating phobias!" and they're also saying things like...say..."It's okay to hold a rat by their tail! Degloving isn't a thing that happens! What do you mean it's their spine?" The bad part isn't that they're scaring someone, the bad part is that it's actual abuse.

[@kamilaharceneaux4610]

Exactly

[@debayeuxchats5607]

@EccentricSage I hope it was talking about fake animals, but I heard the sentence as being about fake reactions, which doesn't change the fact that the ANIMALS are real. :/ There's an awful one where a guy "pranks" his girlfriend while she's on a trampoline with a single rat that he bought from the store, and the whole thing is depressing. While it might not be the biggest threat to animal welfare, it's still sad that people give these channels views. :C

About your school question: I'm from Germany, and currently we're all back in school. We have to wear a mask during breaks but can take it off during classes. If you have any symptoms like coughing or fever you have to stay home and get tested (or, if the symptoms are only mild, you just wait till they are gone and then two more days, but I think you're still supposed to talk to your doctor). If someone is tested positive it really differs how they react, like sometimes they have to close a whole school, sometimes they just quarantine a class/year, it really depends on the situation in that region. Hope that gave you a little insight on the situation :D

[@tf7602]

I'm in university in Germany. All classes above 25ppl are online. Last semester everything was online, no exception. For some reason they also shut off printing even though the campus shop was open? For exams everyone had to wear masks while going into the room (in lines with 1,5-2m distance), you could take them off once you're seated and after they came around to check your ID, because seats had enough distance and it was very high rooms, like auditoriums and sports arenas. Honestly the distance wasn't that much more than what they usually do for exams to prevent cheating.

Where in Germany? I know someone in Tubingen whose school is like that.
