  Oooh, I have a good #Caturday photo! My babies like to sleep on the dogs' bed when the dogs are not on there. In fact, they'll also sleep on the bed when the dogs are on the bed!

  Tempted to change my pronouns to "them/thar" to see if anyone notices. I only just remembered that it is the day! Yarrrrr! #TalkLikeAPirateDay

  I just got done with work and am wiped OUT so I am not going to be participating in #Monsterdon ... for the umpteenth time. I have, however, seen this movie, and I honestly don't want to see it again. I hope y'all have a great time! I do hope to join again some Sunday soon, but it won't be next week either (it's a holiday).

  I need to crowd source a #chicken name! The three new chicks arrived today, and I think I've settled on naming them Dolly, Gloria, and... I don't have a third name that goes along with this naming scheme. I love the name Edith, but that doesn't really go with the "awesome famous ladies who died recently" naming theme. 😩 I could name her Tim, after Tim Curry. But my upright bass is already named Tim. There can be only one! And I don't really want to name her Frank (...

  Hey everybody, my brain has been doing really terrible things to me the past two days in spite of my best efforts to take care of myself. I would really appreciate some pet photos, some cute animal photos, any fun anecdotes that you might have -- anything to cheer me up. My brain is just being an asshole. I simply need to wait it out. But I'd like to wait it out with some cute distraction. TIA I'll start with an absolutely adorable picture of my mom's cat. #CatsOfMastodon #Joi...

  Day 2 of the new drug. I read up on it yesterday. I like gathering information, but now I'm really discouraged! I read so many articles about how this delivery method was untested, and why it wasn't going to work (mostly having to do with peptide size, absorption issues, and saliva and stomach degradation of the drug), and how it wasn't metabolized well at all this way and all this stupid shit that made me really depressed that I can't do the injectable (which is 95% more effe...

  For the love of the Almighty, can somebody tell me why fucking PICKLE RELISH, every single goddamn brand I look up, now has fucking xanthan gum in it? What kind of fresh fucking hell are we living in these days? Why the fuck would fucking pickle relish need fucking xanthan gum in it? Who the fuck is even behind the xanthan gum cabal? It is in fucking everything now! (For the record, I'm one of the .001% of people who can't tolerate it AT ALL). I want off this planet. I hate this fuc...

  I dictated this to my phone early this morning before I learned that my cousin had passed. I'm really having one of these deep thought days today, and now these thoughts are compounded by grief. I'm considering turning this into a video. Let me know your thoughts on that. Thanks! ******* Let's talk about Neurotypical authority and entitlement. Have you ever noticed how neurotypical people just assume mastery in a subject even if they don't have it? Because they have be...

  I do not remember which one of you lovelies said that they were reading "The Traveler" by Joseph Eckert but I bought the e-book yesterday and could not freaking put it down! I don't usually wish for books to be made into series or movies, because they change so much, but this thing was written and absolutely aches to be a movie at the very least. I've never seen such an inventive approach to time travel and... I'm gonna stop talking about it right there. I've alrea...

  So does anybody else also know not to take a shower during a thunderstorm? Is that just urban myth? It's raining today and it's thundering, and I'd like to take a shower, because I normally take my shower at midday, but... I think I'll wait. Not really gonna see any other humans today, so it's OK. Dogs don't care!

  Aw geez. #Kansas sucks so much. 😆 It could not have been a more perfect day. The weather barely topped 70°F, the birds were numerous, and mosquitoes were oddly not present. I saw an indigo bunting!!!! This is one of my favorite parks in the county and it's free to go there! I love going on weekdays because hardly anybody is there, and very few people come all the way to this end of the lake. I did not get out on the water to board because this part of the the lake was really low. I migh...

  OK Fedi hive mind, I'm making a list of creature comforts for my friend who has to be in the hospital for at least FIVE days next week after major surgery. 😳 (At the top of the list are a few things that I'm already providing to them: a portable HEPA filter for their room, and 3M Aura N95 masks.) Suggestions of what gets you through long stays in horrible settings like this are welcome! I'm working to make the list #neurodivergent friendly and sensory-friendly, too.

  @Lkdc Okay, check me if I am wrong, please: for Americans who don't really know what it is, I would roughly equate it to our ability to go back-and-forth between states without having to go through a border check. Not quite the same, because states aren't countries, but a similar freedom of movement and commerce -- even though there are things that are legal in certain states that are not legal in neighboring states, so that is always a consideration. (How did I do?)

  Ahhh this is so good! It is heartening to me that there are still people in the world trying to get the word out that this is not just a cold. I really wish more folks understood what is still going on with this virus in the world and the dangers that it poses for absolutely everyone. The dead can't tell you how awful it is, and the people suffering from the long form of Covid don't have the energy to either, so the job falls on those of us who can still communicate about it....

  I thought you all might enjoy seeing Molly in her trailer. She doesn't necessarily enjoy it, but it really is working well for us. I'll run her brother for about half a mile first and then let her out to walk the rest of the way. I'm increasing his distance every time we go out as well, so we are all getting back up to conditioned. Molly is up to .8 of a mile of walking now and doing great! She's a month out from her surgery. We have our follow up x-ray in...
