Rib breaks are really common injury in chameleons. They result from being picked up wrong. 

Here’s an interesting specimen with lots of rib breaks in various stages of healing.

The proper way to pick up a chameleon is to let them step onto your hand.

Just to add to this, I see more and more people wanting chameleons, but I’d strongly advise against it for anyone who isn’t a very experienced reptile keeper. They are extremely difficult to keep happy and healthy, they’re very time consuming and vets know so little about them that they often die young with no real explanation. I’ve had dozens of different species of reptile in my care and I’d say that chameleons are the most difficult. If you’re experienced enough and are going to take one on, make sure they are a rescue and that you’re not supporting the breeding of exotic animals.

If you ever get anon hate for posting something, just delete the ask and block the anon and then post like a whole shit ton of the stuff they complained about, because then not only are they refreshing your blog waiting for a response that will never be posted, they’re also having to sit through even more of the stuff they hate.

Interviewer: where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Me: I used escapist fantasies as a coping mechanism to get through years of trauma and therefore never learned how to plan for a real life future

Alternatively: I went through periods of depression so frequent and intense that I never considered that I’d actually make it to my 20s so now I’m kinda just making it up as I go

Does anyone genuinely call their siblings sis, sister, little/big sis, bro, brother, little/big brother etc. as constantly as this appears to be portrayed in media? I’m extremely sceptical. Now, affectionally addressing them by something like “slug”, “toad”, “fool”, and “bitch”, or even dare I say it, their gotdamn name, is, from my experience, so much more natural. 

ok guys, reblog and put in the tag how you name your siblings
