I work for a cat shelter and sanctuary, and we have a partnership with a lot of vet clinics in our county-- if someone comes in and wants to euthanize their cat for no good reason, they have the owner surrender the cat to the clinic, and then transfer the cat to us. We haven't seen a surrender rate go up with regards to "covid-kitties", but I know the municipal shelter has seen more dogs surrendered.

There was a wave of people surrendering pets they couldn't or wouldn't care for when things started opening back up again. At least I think i remember seeing that in the news or something.
I was shocked at how easily the vet was like, "yeah, totally," when I took my cat in to be euthanized because her cancer had become too bad. It's wild.

Speaking of parrots 🦜 check out the YouTube channel for an African Grey named "Gizmo." He is the funniest bird on earth and he's smarter than a lot of people on this planet.

Your ex mother-in-law is a piece of shit. I cannot fathom the level of pure fucking evil required to do something that fucked.

I really enjoy your show. I hate to tell you, if you think you're body is betraying you now, wait 'til you're 70! Took me six weeks to recover from an injury I got in my sleep!

Parrots are LOUD and talk A LOT. They are very social animals and talk to each other, and should never be kept alone. Lovebirds are the same, but smaller and a bit less loud.

That guy who outsourced his job got in trouble because to do so he gave them access to the company secure network. Secretly giving an unknown third party access to secure information is a great way to get promoted to customer.

Also I feel that getting older shit. A couple years back I fell cause I stepped half on the sidewalk half into a yard. I bruised my hip and that shit took like a month to even approach not hurting. Meanwhile when I was in my teens I dislocated my knee cap, I slapped it back into place, popped up, and walked home. Still hurt but I could in fact walk on it. I’d be in disability for six months if I did that today.

I’ve used an AI to write simple programs a few times cause I know fuck all about programming an Arduino, but the god damn thing left out all the 0’s from the program, I’d correct it and it would go, “oh sorry, I’ll fix that” and just rewrite it still with no 0’s.

Getting old sucks. Last week I was walking through my apartment and my foot slid out from under me, cartoon style. My arms do that wheel thing, I yell, I catch myself on the wall. I didn’t actually fall down. Still hurt for two days.
