  Hey I don’t have cats so it might be a bit different, but I’ve had a few dogs over the years and I figure it would be similar. Your cats probably associate the carriers with going to the vet which it sounds like they’re not a fan of. Their thought process is probably carrier = vet = no thank you.

  Have you tried to put them into the carrier without actually taking them to the vet? Drop some treats in there, let them explore it at their own pace, close it for a minute or two, and then either reward or praise them after release? Keep progressing to the point that treats are no longer required to lure them and they enter on their own, but still reward them on release. Rinse and repeat (and repeat and repeat and repeat). Over time they may change their attitude towards the carrier their mindset may turn into carrier = treats and praise.

  If they’re not food motivated you may have to use alternate bait such as toys or nip.

  I would pay a premium ticket price to get a lay down seat at the back of the plane and have no food service in that zone. That gets rid of the food sales loss, for which I have never paid for anyway, as I’d be paying a higher ticket price. I guess at that point there is still a concern regarding a mess, since I can bring my own snacks, but it’s not like I would be getting some memory foam mattress with Egyptian cotton sheets with the way airlines would implement this anyway. I’d get a long pleather cushion with maybe a standard pillow.

  It would be worse than what I got in the Navy, slightly, but still better than any shit airplane seat I’ve sat in.

  How is it allowed? That’s the American way, baby!

  How is it possible? People buying Apple products. Their walled garden seems to be a point of pride amongst many users. Not many people actually need Apple products, it’s a choice.

  And the fact that he’s sitting down could be taken as poking fun at people with mobility issues

  Is eyeliner a specifically queer thing now?

  Most people would see it that way, yes.

  You can see the AI’s process though. It split the query into two parts: [a red ball balancing on] a [white ball with a blue ball on top]. So it threw a blue ball onto a white ball, then balanced a red on top. I’m guessing sentence formatting would help.

  Orange PVC pipes are used plenty in my neck of the woods. I see them regularly used for fire suppression system piping.
