Happy world hamster day, conrads! Today may we all celebrate the tiny rodents! Have some hamster facts!

  • Biggs is currently inside your walls currently taking notes of your liberalism

  • Hamsters have an extremely high alcohol tolerance and can drink Everclear 190 while only getting a little buzzed

  • The domestic hamster can run over 5 miles in a single night, keeping you up all night with frantic wheel squeaking noises

  • Hamsters have extremely flexible spines that allow them to turn around in any tunnel they can fit in

  • Hamsters' cheek pouches extend all the way to their hips and can carry up to a quarter of their body weight in them

  • It is believed that almost, if not all domesticated Syrian hamsters, the most common species of pet hamster, can trace their lineage back to a single pregnant female caught in the wild in 1930

    Pre-covid, I tried very hard to break my video game addiction. Now I just feel like: I game, I enjoyed the whole day, spent nearly zero money, have no risk of covid, and I'm not stressing impending world issues for a change. Am I doing it wrong?

      I only feel guilty in that I could usually be doing something more productive. It's fine as a hobby and a good excuse to do something with friends I can't meet in person.
