Yes, I knew that. That and Republicans kissing Trump's ass.

Supposedly, it's going to happen February 26. https://www.geeky-gadgets.com/amazon-kindle-download-policy-change/

I fell down a rabbit hole on Youtube indulging in a bit of Schadenfreude. #fafo if you want to laugh a bit. And keep yelling at the screen: I told you so!!!

He doesn't seem to be out of work in any way. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001475/ The last high-profile job was Oscar showered Killers of the Flower Moon from 2023. And he's one of the leads in an FX show with Jeff Bridges up until at least 2024. So, I don't think it's money. Although I could imagine at his age, he might not know anything about J.K. Rowling beyond her work. Even my sister (a younger Gen X) didn't know until I told her about it. She just doesn't really follow entertainment news in any form.

Constipation can happen with less fillers/fiber. Kibble usually has lots of that. The more dangerous thing is kidney disease or urinary blockages. Slowly move on from dry food. You could also try freeze dried raw and slowly add water to that. Get a water fountain to hopefully make him drink more. Or add tuna water to his water bowl to entice him to drink more. Hopefully, you can stop feeding dry food altogether. If that's not an option at all, make sure there is as much attractive water to drink as possible. In nature, cats get most of their hydration from their food. Dry food is the antithesis of that. I don't want to alarm you and obviously, it doesn't happen with every cat, but male cats are more prone to urinary blockages or kidney disease when they get older. 6 years ago today, I adopted my two girls and my life was better.

I lived in Toronto for 13 years. I always heard dinner for evening meal, so that's what I adopted. However, here in Saskatchewan, at least people from her prefer supper. I haven't adopted that yet. 11 years now. In case someone would like to brush up on their Canadianisms: I got 10/20 with simply guessing about 5: https://magazine.utoronto.ca/research-ideas/culture-society/canadian-words-quiz/

I'm looking at a week of highs around -23C with wind chills in the -30s to -40s. It's been a while since February has been this cold.

I've been bullied and abused at school and date-raped in high school. Funny how women don't tend to take the same thing out on others after they grow up while that supposedly counts as an excuse for using prostitutes for men?

All of these things and the people in these clips, I'm grateful for. And for people like Sam who help me not despair about humanity.

That's my parents. Not fun.

How about having him make the plan? Just thinking about your mental load. Since I work long hours, especially in the winter, I "cook ahead" meaning I have some kind of stew thing sitting in the slow cooker on Sundays, that will be portioned and eaten Sunday evening and during the week. Usually for three meals. So, I only need to cook twice during the week. Maybe that would be an option? Plan for two or three days and be spontaneous for the rest of the week?

Windchill -44C. I think it's the coldest morning this winter, ignoring night time lows. The weird thing, tomorrow morning, it will be -7C with -16C wind chill. I better get my migraine pills ready.

-35C this morning. I'm working from home today.

It sounds extreme, of course, but I do think there is a kernel of truth. I wonder if you asked any man what their role models are and see if there are any women in there.

A better life in Canada is not a given anymore. Hasn't been for a long time. Immigrants today, many are well-educated people who can't work because of some red tape or other. Never even mind, that education and work experience got them their permanent residency in the first place. I can't tell you how many people I know who have that problem. My former family doctor took years to retake all kinds of exams until he could work.
