Oh, one more thing: don’t put your cat’s water next to their food. Separate the two by at least 4 meters. Across the room, or preferably in another room. Get a water bowl that’ll hold a few liters and auto fills. Cats don’t like their water by their food, and you should make sure your cat always has plenty available. Also they like water that’s moving. A fountain is good, but my cat took to the self filling water bowl just fine and it seems to work a lot better for her. Once I switched to it from water just in a bowl the amount she drank tripled.

The solution to this is to start your own instance and federate the other instances that you want to make sure you can always reach. This is a solved problem, really.

My cat has these little plastic mice covered in rabbit fur will a little rattle ball inside them. She goes nuts for them. Her favorite game is fetch.

You can find them all over Amazon super cheap.

And yes, you’ll want cat trees, they like to be high. Also if you can get your cat a tree in front of a window, put it a bird feeder out there.

You might check out recipes for Indian lemon pickle. It’s a way of salt fermenting them that results in a spicy delicious condiment that can last for ages.

Can you summon a song in your head? A melody?

It’s that… But it’s your voice. And you employ it to think. It’s how I argue with myself and reason my way through a thing. I’m not sure how I’d get along without it, except every once in a while I get stuck on a problem, so I do something different. Often, the right solution to the thing I wanted to do will pop into my head. Then I need to work backwards how I got there. Both are useful, I prefer the information up front though.

I use it for reasoning. It’s a way to talk to myself without having to do so out loud, which I do a lot.

There is a segment of the population who, apparently, don’t have one. Even deaf people apparently have an inner monologue of hand signs visualized. But this segment just lacks one entirely. I don’t understand how they think, how they come to a conclusion. Things just pop into my mind, when I take my mind away from other matters and let my subconscious bake on an item… is this the way they think about everything? I don’t know.

It’s absolutely authoritarian. You’re an idiot if you think otherwise. I’m not even going to offer an argument, you’re just stupid.

Speaking as a “muh gunz” person that person is fucking stupid

It is, though

🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️ oh boy here I go again

I’ve cut off all but Disney+ and that’s only because my nieces and nephews use it. Everything else just gets put into my 80TB raid now. Could probably do to start purging some of it, but also I wanna keep the writes to a minimum to extend drive life and I’m not anywhere near full.
