    Dear white cat women on Facebook,

    I dislike being called heartless for not taking in 5 stray cats. Yes, I’m aware they need to be spayed.

    This is not cheap.

    Yes I’m aware they need to go to a shelter. That’s what I’ve been trying to organise for 18 fucking months you fucking harpies.

    So unless you have something useful to add, like maybe, if there’s a vet that may consider lowering their fee, or you know of a rescue that will take them,

    Go fuck yourself.

    Regards Apparently the only man in these fucking cat groups.

      Sorry, but 2 go elseware already?

      There’s always the peanut gallery… They don’t realise that all of the fosters and shelters are pretty much at capacity right now. You’re doing a good thing doing as much as you are right now.

      Happy to try and rustle up some resources for you if you’d like that?

      Ask them if they would take a cat.

      I could send some money if that would help?

        That’s really kind of you. Leave it with me for the moment and I’ll see how I go :)

    I thought maybe I’d need to invest in some warmer socks. Then I thought I don’t really want to buy more when I have a drawer full. Where would I put them? What about if I put 2 pairs on? and guess what it worked.

    Sometimes you gotta spend 5 minutes to workout what you want and what you don’t want and then a really simple solution pops up.

      Thin sock first, then thicker sock on top.

      Tried and true method.

      I was really happy I could fit into my slippers with my bamboo work socks on. It’s a tight fit initially but my feet feel great once in

      This is a very useful piece of advice. Will use. 🙂👍

    Have you ever been to see a tribute band? I went with friends to see “Van Halen” once. They were alright. I’ll never forget “David Lee Roths” zebra leggings.

      My first concert was to see the SpiceD Girls. I was 12 and cried like I was seeing the real thing.

      I once saw You Am I doing a cover show of Spinal Tap. It was unhinged and glorious

      I went to see The Darkness, who were sorta tribute. Had a great time. They came on stage each member wearing a different Jimi Hendrix outfit. I laughed so hard.

      I saw a Johnny Cash act once, he was pretty good but the room was just a concrete box and it was too loud.

      I watched a Metallica cover band when I first moved here. There was a guy in the crowd that looked more like Kirk Hammett than the guitarist in the band and it was so loud my ears rang for two days after. I think that’s when I decided to start wearing earplugs to shows

      Kjsstroyer played at a pub I worked at, The John Curtain.

      Yes. Some are very very good, and some are quite frankly horrible. Usually the ‘cuter’ the name, the worse they are. Imo the best are the ones that re-interpret the songs to suit themselves, more covers than an attempt to re-create the original songs. The level of musicianship varies a lot but can be impressive. Worth a low end of range ticket price at least just to find out which.

      There was a Black Sabbath tribute band back in Toronto. They were awesome (wish i remembered their name). I think Ozzy watched them play a few times and had kind words.

      Unfortunately I dreamt I had to speak at an event about trains hosted by Robin Williams and I lost my notes and forgot my words and everyone got up and left and Robin Williams and my boss from 20years ago were very disappointed in me. I know my brain is just washing away stress in its own litttle way but geez I do NOT know where it got all that from

    I’ve been using mynoise.net a lot lately when I need to concentrate or when I am in an open plan office. I usually just put on some instrumental music but lately I’ve been needing something totally ambient and this has lots of options and seems to be legit non-ai. Just sharing

      One of my go to’s for the various noise colours - white, brown, pink etc. They also have an app which is pretty good, does drain you battery a little though at least on my 5 yr old phone. My other background music go to is DroneZone on SomaFM.

      Maybe Max Richter’s discography. The full version of Sleep goes for 8 hours

      If you have an iPhone that has background sounds built in.

    Bought the world’s most boring gameboy as another keyboard option at trivia.

    This will get the job done but I’ll need to see how the ergonomics are. The mouse click and volume buttons are on the opposite sides, and I’d ideally like to operate it with one hand since I need to hold the mic as well
