  • My cat is the very definition of a cat, totally aloof, fiercely independent, kind of an asshole. She only acknowledges my presence when she wants to eat. She loved to bait the dogs and get them in trouble for chasing her. No guests in our house have ever seen her. The only times she even allows me to pet her is when she has a mat she wants me to get out.

    The only exception is with my daughter. She absolutely loves her. As long as no one else is around she will love all over her. This picture was from about 2 years ago when my daughter got a nasty cold, and she watched over her the entire time. She even turned around and yelled at me shortly after taking this picture because my daughter started having a small coughing fit.







  • Red Dragon too for the same reason. The way he writes really gets you into the characters mind. I still get chills thinking about the part with the reporter in wheelchair. He describes the victim thought process as he’s dropped off outside his office building. Even after all the killer did to him, he starts thinking he’ll be set free, and you start to think that too, ::: spoiler spoiler just moments before he is set on fire and rolled down the hill. :::

    Another one that really distributed me was when he describes the killer just watching a family in their house. They are completely unaware that he has been watching them and that they’ll be his next victims.

    I read that book 25 years ago and I still remember vivid details of it.

    This is the thing I love the most about the younger generations now.

    • Boomers: If you don’t like it do something about it
    • Gen-X: nah we’re too nihilistic
    • Millennials: sorry we’re too busy trying to survive on the scraps you left us
    • Boomers: that’s what I thought

    Now:

    • Boomers: If you don’t like it do something about it
    • Gen-Z/Alpha: okay!
    • Boomers: no, not like that!
