  • Keep working on it until you can coax her into either stepping inside or into an easily enclosable space, then to vet for a chip scan.

    Best case scenario is that she belongs to someone who misses their baby girl.

    Second best case is no chip or previous owner super-sucks and therefore - you get a new buddy.

    We invited an abandoned gray girl in for wet food one day and she never left. Starting on her first night, she’d wake me up in the wee hours giving me tiny kisses on my eyelids, cheeks, forehead, or tip of my nose. We still have her 12 years later and she is the sweetest cat ever. Don’t fuck with her though - she will cut you 🤣

  • This seemingly simple thing enrages me on a daily basis.

    How difficult can it fucking be to write some damn code to omit “the” from sorting if it is the first word of a title? JFC

    If “the” appears first, then “ignore” must surely be a thing, right??

  • I used to be a huge Stephen King junkie, read every novel within a few weeks of each release (started young by reading Salem’s Lot way too young). Then he started getting really repetitive in the mid-90s.

    So I was reluctant to bother with 11/22/63 but I picked it up because the premise was totally different for King. And I was blown away - I consider it his best, by far.

  • In the case of many GenX folks: “our turn” will never arrive. The Boomers refused to fucking retire and make room for us, and younger generations conflate us with Boomers because “old is old”.

    Meanwhile we are working our asses off helping our elderly parents navigate an increasingly hostile health system (yay, capitalism) while giving our adult children a place to live or money to survive an increasingly impossibly expensive society. Can’t afford to save for retirement either.

    “Hooray”

    (fyi - I also think that term limits are the way to go here - finish your terms, then gtfo. None of this waiting around for 20 years for “my turn” and certainly none of that “just wheel the old corpse in and tell her how to vote” bullshit either)

  • This is probably because you are stating your subjective opinion in a rude & condescending way, instead of providing any peer-reviewed data to back up your claims.

    tl;dr/succinct version - you are full of shit

  • I lived through it - in Florida - and it was every bit as shady and disgusting as you would think, and then some.

    Especially that Brooks Brothers Riot of “concerned citizens” who were actually GOP operatives demanding a recount. That fucking sickens me to this day.

    (I showed my spouse an article about that a few years ago and he was horrified. He’d had no idea, although I don’t fault him for that since he was on float at the time)
