  • I mean it depends on the cat

    I have a feral who acts like it’s some great coincidence that she lives in the ultimate lap of developed world luxury and humans just happen to be there and no they can’t touch her

    I have two kitten brothers who only love because they are fed. If one of us starts being more regular about feeding them then that’s their new best friend

    I have an old lady cat who couldn’t care less about food she just wants her belly rubbed and a friend to be with

    My husband has his geriatric boy who I’m fairly certain is a small man in a cat suit. He keeps us all on a tight schedule of demands.










  • I find it shapes how I choose games. I like to be a completionist. I choose not to play games that have tons of dlc that is part of the core game.

    Examples: I skipped out on the new soul calibur. Unlocks are a huge part of the appeal of mastering tourney games.

    I skipped out on Stellaris and don’t really play cities and skylines. It feels incomplete when you play it.

    I do play some games and buy dlc because the xpacs feel like it’s renewing and changing the game: Xenoblade 2, sims 4 (actual xpacs), crusader kings, grim dawn

    And some games I’m just lucky enough that the devs just keep giving me thousands of hours of work for free: terraria, Stardew, Starbound, Subnautica, monster sanctuary, anything by larian studios, etc

    I love it when a game is well thought out and complete but I wholeheartedly understand the need for patches and dlc to extend sales of an IP for the stability of small gaming companies.




  • I have been a daily reddit user since 2008. I had never seen a single Apollo ad or any discussion of Apollo.

    Your search results are biased towards what you have browsed on Google.

    Also you shouldn’t be seeing ads with proper internet hygiene. Ublock origin, no script, vpn if you can. Res will strip out every reddit ad. And I’d highly recommend duck duck go or something more private than Google these days

    I wanted to take 2 classes at a cc to qualify for a program at work. I have multiple degrees. It’s a 200 dollar and 100 hour commitment for six months to give me a 15k raise.

    I tried to apply through this new and improved portal and it would not let me. I had three separate it people help me. No browser or device or cookie setting would allow me to apply.

    After a week someone very competent called me to solve the issue. Apparently my name is so common that on the initial account creation check to see if I’ve already registered an account didn’t have enough unique information to differentiate me from other students.
