Don’t even need that. My parents used to have a kid seat on the front and the back of the bike so they could take us both. When you’re getting too big to fit on the seat, you learn how to ride a bike yourself.

That’s an urban planning problem. My dad’s detour to drop me off at daycare when I was little was a 10 minute bike ride. When I was old enough to go to school, there was no detour because it was on the way to his work. Shops are also on the way or at most a 5 minute detour.

Tomato went on vacation, never came back

I guess it heavily depends on where you live. Where I live there are zero stray cats just wandering the streets. The shelter I got one of my cats from actually did have a ton of former strays, which really surprised me, but that shelter is smack dab in the middle of a pretty rural area and there you’ll have some. But definitely not in the cities.

Same here. It’s simply not as active as Reddit, obviously. But I found that I was wasting way too much time on Reddit anyway. Infinity was still working for free this whole time, which was the 3pa I used for years, but I still deleted it about a week ago. My sub feed was way less active and the all page was even worse than usual with 80% just aita kind of text posts. I’m on lemmy maybe 30 minutes a day, but that’s a good thing for me.

I tried out ubuntu about as long ago as you did, and for some reason I couldn’t get the internet to work. But because this was before smartphones, I had to boot back into windows, look up a possible solution, write it down, boot back into ubuntu, try it, didn’t work, rinse and repeat. After 2 hours I just gave up and went back to windows. It’s probably way easier now, but I’m still hesitant to give it another try.

Is she food obsessed the whole day or just in the morning? One of my cats was like that, the whole day, and it turned out she actually had worms (my fault, I didn’t think it was necessary to deworm an indoor cat), and now that it’s treated she is very chill with food.

Why doesn’t you mom take that poor cat to the vet? Compulsive grooming is a symptom, not a thing onto itself. She probably would also be a lot sweeter if she wasn’t constantly in pain or itchy or stressed or whatever is wrong with her.

Haha so true. A friend of mine used to have two big tomcats and a little puffball void girl. Guess who was the boss in that household lol. She had those boys under her paw

She walks upright with them but only backwards. Very strange cat. Still love her!

Haha, if it’s up to my white and red girl she always has the highest priority for petting! She can definitely be a bit possessive of me lol

The black one is perfect but my white and red girl needs to work on her loaf form!

It isn’t? I’m on it right now, works totally fine

That’s a very elegant solution. Would love this

I just spend like 10 minutes copying over all the color codes from my carefully tweaked Infinity theme, lol. Love it

I don’t own anything made of silk but I believe you

Yeah, the only thing you gotta be careful with is wool, because that seriously shrinks like crazy with anything over 20°C. Everything else just goes on 30-40°C, good luck.

That assumes you have bought you own house which you can alter. Where I live it’s 60% owns and 40% rents, but the cities, where it’s much warmer and which heat up faster and thus need ac the most, have more renters than buyers. So you’re dependent on whoever you’re renting from to do anything like that.

So cute omg. I’d love a sibling pair of cats in the future. My cats get along fine, but they would never do this.

Lmao. We do need ac though, the problem is Europe has a ton of older houses which were build when it was much more beneficial to try and keep warmth in rather than out. And it’s a pain in the ass to retrofit all these houses with ac. I live in a flat which was build about 15 years ago and the difference compared to my previous apartments is enormous. Still no ac, but it’s not needed here because of proper isolation and smaller windows.
