Sliced or chunks for me. Biting into fruit I picture teeth cracking, breaking, or losing my crowns.

I asked ChatGPT to compare the size of Chesapeake Bay to the Great Lakes, and to overlay a map of it onto the Great Lakes region. This is the result. Yikes!

Our last cat nearly strangled himself on his collar (got it stuck on one of those springy doorstops), so we've gone collar-free ever since. Violet is microchipped and of course we're pretty diligent in making sure she never gets out.

I just drove through Woodsboro yesterday, such a classic main street with nice architecture.

"Green Line trains running every 16 minutes". UGGG. I hope at least that every single one of these are 8 car trains, because they're going to be crowded!

Sounds more like a UTI. My old cat had similar symptoms once. We always used to go to Friendship, $$$, but good care. Good luck!

One of the insanity-inducing, flying parasites from the original Star Trek (Season 1, Ep. 29) episode "Operation – Annihilate!"?

Shingles? How about TDAP? My last one was in 2017 and think they’re every ten years, so I went ahead and got another.

No catio, but @jerdlngr.bsky.social has been researching outside cat enclosures and might have some tips. Our neighbor has a tent like thing she uses.
