Please tell me there was a mass resignation after that email was sent.

My cat. With cats you get a better bang-for-your-buck in terms of maintenance costs vs years of utility.

(please don't be offended, this is meant as a joke. I love dogs. However I do refuse to get one because I personally am too emotionally delicate to fall in love with someone who I know might not be around for more than 12 years. I know it's better to have loved and lost, etc, but I don't know if I could handle it. Everyone who adopts an older dog, you are my hero)

Casa de Papel. The first season is its own contained story and it was fantastic and ended perfectly. The subsequent seasons were okay, but you could really tell that the writers hadn't expected the show to continue after season 1, and everything kind of felt made up on the spot and not nearly as well constructed. I watched it because I love some of the actors/characters, but when I recommend it to people, I tell them to only watch the first season.

I know a couple of Yoshi's (Japanese) and the first time I met a German Joshi (pronounced "Yoshi"), I thought he had a Japanese name for some reason until I realised it's short for Joshua. Also, I thought Naomi was an exclusively Japanese name, today I learned, thanks!

Subscribing for more weird art history facts

Yours is my favourite. I've witnessed several grease fires, but never one that geysered out of the sinkhole. Nice job, lol.

You're not wrong, but now that I've read this article I'm pretty sure I can feel the microplastics inflaming my brain.

Well that's absolutely horrifying.

What's a potato?

Holy shit. That one lady was just walking around the New York subway and her eye implant went dark. That's wild. Imagine if that happened to a wheelchair user, or someone with a prosthetic leg. Or an artificial internal organ! The company just shuts down and so do your body parts? Truly terrifying.

“In August, high-end tourism continues to grow, unlike normal tourism,” Antonio Coviello, a researcher with Italy’s National Research Center wrote in a report on luxury travel issued this week, adding that the risk of over-tourism in the luxury sector is a concern because it could drive up prices in the mid-range travel sector to accommodate the bigger spenders.

Appropriate username.

Latest pics of jupiter from nasa! More fodder for my desktop slideshow folder.

Honest question, how do you keep a cat indoors at night? We used to call them, but sometimes they wouldn't show up. That meant you might see them the next day, or never again. One little poofy grey cat we had disappeared for a week before turning up soaking wet and meowing frantically. Cats are quick and can make pretty good distance from your house, so when you're calling them in for the night, they could be literally anywhere. They also like to hunt at sunset, so might just ignore you on purpose.
That's my experience anyways. I think some of the other comments here are right, that a limited outdoor space that they could enjoy but not escape from would be ideal. I don't have a yard so my cats are indoor only. I did try to leash-train the smarter one but she was not having it.
edit: we would clang their food dishes and shake the food bags. Calling them in for the night was also feeding time. My experience was that despite this they wouldn't show up sometimes.

This was my family when I was a kid. We never had a cat for more than 2-5 years because there were coyotes and pumas out there. Except for one cat who lived to old age. I think we had a dozen cats during my childhood. I remember thinking they were happier with their freedom, even though it meant their lives were short.
I know better now. I still think cats are happier when they can go outside, but it's not worth the risk to their lives and also the lives of the local smaller wildlife.

My partner is one of these. I have photos of him sleeping on planes, trains, boats and cars. He can be worried about something, or stressed about tomorrow, and still fall asleep within 5 minutes of laying down. I am so jealous.

I definitely did this as a child. I would pretend I was a beaver.

He survived the mine collapse!

I had already clicked out of this thread when I spied your comment and came back in! Your experience is a lifetime dream of mine. Poo-tee-weet?
