On Ben Shapiro’s show today he referenced this this as a “so called debunked video”. Because, you know, he has no integrity.

We are binging Chopped! right now. These just showed up in an episode with a toxic foods theme. I recognized the picture because I looked them up during the episode.
Handyman: Charisma. Being personable means not going bankrupt by competing on a race to the bottom on price.
We all pay. That’s how it works. Gas taxes and registration fees. The driver paid for a license. The truck had sales tax. It’s a distributed payment method. Not a pay as needed system. Unless they go on a toll road. But that’s a separate rant.
They worked within the margins of error. He didn’t say Hillary would win. He said there was a about a 7 in 8 chance she would win. And when you look at the numbers by state and figure out how many votes made a difference in the electorial college numbers he was remarkably accurate. Don’t blame him for most of the country not knowing how statistics work. Blame people for not voting because they don’t understand statistics.
I feel like the summary missed the actual story here. Which is understandable because the article spent a lot of time not being clear on it too.
The next episode of This Week in Parasitism is going to be lit.
Heathcliff without Heathcliff wasn’t inspired by Garfield but I know it seems that way. A friend was posting its Heathcliff each day and I was confounded by the impenetrableness for months. But after I started figuring it out I noticed that Heathcliff was almost completely irrelevant to most of the strips and started removing him to see how often they still worked as designed.
But since G-G already existed there is no way to remove the idea that one caused the other in most minds. I didn’t really care for G-G because I really never cared for Garfield in the first place.
It’s nice looking and will work for putting solids into. But I’d be afraid that if any liquid was put in a red oak bowl that it would eventually become a sieve.
It’s really a lot more boring than it sounds. Or maybe it’s just something that has happened too often to me for me to think it’s not a regular thing.
She was dating my ex girlfriend. When the split my ex suggested that she should go out with me.
I think you meant “Bob”.
I haven’t been back to Reddit since The Exodus. I uninstalled the app. I suffered waiting for Boost to become available for Lemmy.
By the way. That’s Harper. She moved in a year before my girlfriend. I made sure to ask “if I have to do I have medical permission to have that eye removed.” We eventually did remove that eye. It almost killed her. But when she did finally recover she was a 14 year old kitten with lots of bounce because that cranial pressure was no longer there. The other eye was mostly bad too. Never saw anything other than a laser pointer. She was this way from birth.
When offering up advice in public places I sometimes include options that won’t work in a specific situation but might apply to the few dozen or thousand that might read it. That’s why I specifically mentioned that that probably won’t work in this case. And I stress “probably” because I had a “blind” cat that could see a laser. The first time I lured her into the bedroom with a laser my then girlfriend, now wife, started crying because this cat had previously only detected sun vs shadow and she wasn’t even entirely sure that was not at sensing heat thing.
I’d avoid coddling too much. One tool I found that helps cats get along is the laser pointer. They both get so focused on that that they kind of forget that they’re in each other’s space trying to get it at the same time. Once they realize that they can be in the same space at the same time, without that hostility they tend to get along a lot better.†
It may not work in this situation because of the older cats health issues. But generally the closer you can keep them without any risk of attack, the faster they adopt each other or at least tolerate each other.
† sometimes I wonder if cats are soothed by hunting and exude some kind of smell that disarms other cats.
This is a tough one. When I find out someone has a 13 year old cat or dog I gently tell them that they need a second pet and they need it now. Because statistically in one to 6 years they will come home to an empty house and their soul is going to break when their buddy of more than a decade isn’t there.
You have a cat in declining health. It isn’t 100% possible to tell if their new issues are because of the kitten or if these were things that were going to happen anyway and the kitten’s arrival is just coincidence.
All joining of a new cat to an established cat house is going to be rocky for a bit. I foster ferals for the local county shelter and SPCA and tame them up so they can be adopted. I have mean nasty cats show up and piss off the locals every month. But after a few days everything settles out and they all get used to each other because there is plenty of food they don’t need to fight over and another room they can go to.
Except Junko. She is our 8 year old and still wants to be angry around cats that have been here one year less than her. Because she is mean. If I had the money I’d get her Prozac to see if it helps.
And that’s where your next step is. Your senior cat needs a vet visit. Let’s check their weight and everything else to see if they are getting enough nutrition. Is some medication to chill them out an option for them?
Do they have a spot in the house that is just theirs? Is the kitten making an effort to stay way or are they up in their face trying to make friends?
Unless extra words are added to show they are disagreeing with the practice instead of my comment then “also” is the best choice.
I didn’t see it as an attack. I saw it as very poor communication. “Also” would have worked way better as it would have been a “yes, and” instead of a literal “but.” I’m all about charitable readings. That’s why I didn’t attack them but pointed out their choice in wording. It was, as pointed out, snarky, not defensive.
I made the 33 mile trek to Agri Supply today for new pants now that I can’t take the 5 mile trek to Tractor Supply. I can get most of my farm supplies from other places* but chicks and medications will be harder to source.
