The upshot is every time this guy starts freaking out I find a cool new event to attend.

I LOVE that idea! One of our resident cats is a pain to give meds to so I'll give it a try!
And yes, Bo is half (or so) Bengal. He came to us completely feral but needed those meds so he didn't go the TNR route. He's turned into a super friendly guy who craves getting pets - just took a bit to get there. He's also basically vocal chords on four legs - sings all day long.
If anyone is interested in adopting, he's listed with MEOW in Calgary, Canada!
66% of our resident cats are on prescription diets. Total non-issue. I think people just worry about other unanticipated costs.
My partner and I foster a lot of cats. Some of the sweetest cats take forever to get adopted just because they aren't kittens anymore. One of our fosters has been with us for almost three years now - just because he isn't a kitten and needs some inexpensive meds sprinkled on his food once a day.
Oof... Not a good look for Canadian soccer. An analyst specifically stating that they were unwilling to spy because they were being pressured to do so...
May also be an imperfectly aligned brake pad rubbing the tire.
How did I not think of that?
She's discovered that she can get 'mom time' by jumping up on the desk we have in the room because oh man, do they never let her rest otherwise.
Fines clearly don't work. We need criminal penalties.
Yep - I identify as male, but I put he/they in my email signature because I a) want to signal active support for the trans community and b) don't really think about my own gender much and kind of like de-gendering my language wherever possible.
The willingness to try and legislate away strikes is really problematic...
Fantastic comment. Only item I might disagree on is bearings IF the bike has cartridge bearings as those are easy to work with. If it's cup and cone/loose ball then yea, I'd recommend just letting the shop do it only because cone wrenches are a pretty specific tool.
Lots of bike shops (especially community bike shops) offer inexpensive courses on bike maintenance which are a great option for learning.
