Being an adult means realizing that while you love cat-sitting, having an actual cat will not work for you, because OMG, a week and there is so much cat hair! Everywhere!

@vicgrinberg You can cut down somewhat on the hair by thoroughly brushing them every other day or so, and most cats love it and treat it as bonding. You’d be surprised how much you can get from a shorthair! I toss the clumps outside so the birds can use them in their nests.

Climate change is going to bankrupt the U.S. and make large parts of the world unlivable including places in the U.S. if our progress isn’t at the very least upheld.

Trump is the biggest threat in the U.S. to the health of the planet and life on it. Anyone who doubts it now won’t in 2025.

For dealing with climate change it’ll be game over. We are already out of second chances

@enoch_exe_inc @TonyStark There’s no algorithm here: you can say “kill”.

@WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online avatar

@TonyStark @enoch_exe_inc People know what unalivement means, and it’s people’s reports that result in bans. If you wouldn’t say kill then you wouldn’t say unalivement.

I don't understand the trend where every thing/thought has to have unique name. The "Is there a word for?" thing.

@billyjoebowers I have so few thoughts I can just name each of them Stu, Steven, Stella, Stacey, Stan, and Hamish.

Left ankle: hugely swollen, yet only somwhat painful.
Right knee: slightly swollen and puffy, yet incredibly tender, unstable, and difficult to use.

Is the difference due to the AGE of the injury? The left ankle was horribly twisted 50 years ago and has continued to hurt periodically over the past 5 decades.

Right knee eroded due to arthritis, only painful for the past decade, tho increasingly.

FWIW, I get the usual advice from every MD: RICE. Take painkillers.

WhiteCatTamer,
@WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online avatar

@thepoliticalcat Just ice? I was under the impression that rotating heat and ice was best nowadays because inflammation being painful can be harmful in and if itself, but constricting the blood vessels also hampers their ability to transport material to the injured site.

WhiteCatTamer,
@WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online avatar

@thepoliticalcat To be fair, it’s not necessarily a better feeling to go from a toasty hot pad to an ice pack. XD

But yeah, in my experience it’s a matter of managing pain and inflammation while encouraging gentle but normal movement quickly.

@Gorfram @thepoliticalcat Have you tried rolling a wooden dowel under your foot from heel to toes while pressing down?

Hurts like a bitch in the moment but it cuts down on the pain for me afterward.

I don’t know why people justify owning guns by saying they bought the gun to protect themself and/or their family when it's only adding to the problem and especially when there are better solutions, such as my plan which is to fend off any attackers with the Judo skills I learned by watching my brother take lessons at the YMCA when we were in elementary school.

The great irony:

, in his venom to make a loyal lapdog vassal to , has succeeded in making Russia a loyal lapdog vassal to

China, still bitter over 百年国耻, its century of humiliation, has not forgotten that the imperialist power that took the most land from it was Russia

And now, with a few desperate, obsequious hugs from the downtrodden mafia ghoul Putin, takes it all back, and heck of a lot more

25 feet tall! Agave appears to be preparing to bloom. I wonder if I could turn this into a radio antenna.

@ai6yr The problem with a radio antenna attached to a giant asparagus is that while you may want to pick up music, all you’ll get is good beets.

I wanted to bake something today because the weather was cool, but I couldn't remember the recipe, so I had to look it up, but the recipe book was packed, so I had to move a bunch of boxes to get to it, but while they were out of the way I decided to put the kitchen rug down, then as long as I was at it I unpacked some dishes, then I unpacked my cookbooks then decided to put them on the tea cart, then put every else back nicely & now the kitchen looks better but I'm too tired to bake.
