update on the Leonardo cat food. I just tried them on the Trout & Catnip flavor and the eldest just hissed at me when I tried to get her to stop licking the empty bowl.

what could your Bluesky-con be about that could draw 200 people? ParkCon, where Dutch BlueSky people meet on a sunny day and performatively touch grass while eyeing each other and wondering if we are all left enough. Followed by beer.

Post dog. In 2019 Junebug was rescued from an abusive would-be breeder in Hong Kong. He needed multiple surgeries to even come home with me. The vets gave him months to live because he was so weak. I’ve now lived with the Little King in three countries and he’s still going strong.

Good morning to everyone except my younger cat, who at 3:30am bazooka puked all over everything, including the bathroom floor and my laundry which was folded but not yet put away.

"I guess it really is a Big Tent" I yell over the sounds of breaking glass caused by David Brooks throwing a metal trash can through the window of a Starbucks to distract the police while Bill Kristol spray paints NO SYSTEM BUT THE ECOSYSTEM on a cop car

Nightmare last night I was on a night bus going far away. A threatening man w/a vicious dog sat beside me and threatened me. I tried to shout for help to alert others on the bus. Woke myself up pleading, and realised the vicious dog was a Chihuahua who had decided to sit on my head. 🤷‍♀️

This is petty, but the last weeks I’ve seen a lot more of the ‘follow/unfollow a few days later to build your ratio’ behaviour. Instablock if I notice. Just as obnoxious as the follow farmers. Who needs a ratio on Bluesky and why?

You know what’s better than one sick elderly chihuahua? Two. Two sick elderly chihuahuas.
