    Catsby is being kept company and well-bathed by Miss Biscuits, though. I get bathed occasionally too. She really just likes to bathe everyone. #cats

    Weirdly, Catsby also felt like hot garbage this weekend too. Got him to the vet, now he's on a few meds for stomach and nausea over the next few days. He laid next to me on the couch on a heating pad all weekend, so we were a pair of couch lumps.

    Kinda felt like hot garbage all weekend. But, luckily my brain decided that BALL x PIT was the absolute best thing in the world, so I just hyperfocused on that while being a couch lump.

    You know what's pretty cool? When one of your cats shows up and demands attention after being somewhere else in the house for hours. Like, that critter woke up or was in the middle of something and suddenly decided "hey, I wonder what that big human guy is up to? I need a pet."

    Content warning:Gross foot picture? Maybe American dudes who buy random dev boards and metric bolts are highly correlated with problematic toes?

    Content warning:Gross foot picture? The funny thing is that I *do* have a big toe with a nail that's permanently wrecked and gone weird, thanks to having dropped an entire bookshelf on it years ago. So, something like this toe capsule might help with nail maintenance? But, also... (looks around) how did they know? I've never bought anything like that from them before. The suggested items are like gadget, gadget, gadget, TOES, gadget, gadget

    Content warning:Gross foot picture? Aliexpress is suggesting this item to me and I'm like... is this a fetish thing? But also, this might be... useful?

    You know, it's almost like they've made this library e-book system so complicated that you'll just give up and buy a copy in a store somewhere

    Aw, balls: I just got my turn on a library e-book loan, but I picked the wrong DRM format and can't get it into my Kindle. Now I have to return it and get back in line behind a few dozen other folks. Ugh.
