Over the pond here in PA, here’s our little void cat, Sweetie, AKA Sweets Petites from the Streets. She is a rescue from street life and shitty neighbors.

I’m getting strong Mega Man X vibes from this.

What Aiden did was a heinous and horrible outcome, but I can’t get over the deadnaming and pronoun misuse, regardless their actions and motivations. Not defending their actions, killing is bad m’kay? They had a lot of built up hatred, and combined with poor mental health, not surprising if it was instigated by the Convenant School whilst they attended. Overall, however, it looks like they were confused and broken.

4 cats. We feed them all wet food (Friskies/Tastefuls) morning and night, and have an auto-feeder for 3 of them. The 4th has a kibble addiction so the auto-feeder has a RFID tag which locks upon him getting close, and we feed him ~1/4 cup dry food early afternoon.

Anytime, thanks! Yeah I’m over in Chester County, Coatesville/Downingtown. I need to chime in more in both those subs.

I drive past this school ever so often, and while I know this can happen at any school, it always hits harder knowing there are asshole kids everywhere. Regardless of true intent, this shit destroys teachers’ livelihoods. While Malvern is a richer area by far (edge of the PA Main Line old money), that doesn’t excuse the behavior, even though there will be money thrown around to silence mouths.

The BS at the end of the article about these kids making the videos private so teachers can’t find them just enrages me more. Like, you little shits haven’t learned you lesson?

This is something that would be great for our 26lb mix. We don’t know yet what he’s a mix of, but we think it may be Bengal or Chausie. I need to flex my handy skills, and this feels like the purrfect way. Thanks for sharing!

I saw them for the first time back in October after a friend got me hooked on their style. Synthwave is definitely a genre I need more of. I keep rewatching a video someone made at the concert, and it’s nothing short of fantastic.

Sorrynotsorry, I’ve just got into watching it and it fit so… haha.

He was already on leave following an incident in December, 2023 when he was arrested after crashing his car while possessing 20 unprescribed Xanax pills.

Sounds like he was outright delusional, and it very much feels like these two events are joined at the hip.

Ah, not a worry. I’m sure I’ll find “the one” soon enough. Thanks!

What tree is that? We have a rather chonky boi that we think is a Bengal mix, and there are days we think he’ll topple over the regular sized trees we have (we have 3 other “normal” sized kittehs). I know they make large cat trees specifically for this, but any recs are welcome!

Also, of course he’s an awesome kitteh.

Just threw Zorin on my secondhand x220, but been using the Thinkpad as a low end test bench so that may change. Runs surprisingly well, although I do need a new battery soon (“dies” at ~40%).

To add onto CitizenKong’s comment, the scientific name is hypnagogic jerk, shorthand hypnic jerk, and it’s exactly what they said, the body shutting down the external neural responses that control your body.
