Cat Immune Support Purée | Beta Glucan + Colostrum Cat immune support purée with beta glucan and bovine colostrum. Made with real chicken. Easy daily topper or lickable treat.

Worth spreading the word, the people (and products) at Kitty-up are fantastic! The Vitality sticks are one of the few things Vance gets excited about. We have a subscription for them, they help us get him extra calories, fight off viral infections, and bring him joy.

Yeah, “miracle”

They cheap out on all the ingredients, make everything smaller, and charge us ever more…

Admittedly, I generally don't look at them, I just eat them. Fast food has changed so much. Hell, when I worked at Taco Bell we used 100% ground beef and a spice blend, now they have prebagged, soupy "meat" that is mostly fillers.

You really want to get Sickle & Torch. I know, the idea of extending 0-level play sounds crazy but, in this case? It really works! Plus, there area great rules for setting up encounters and other great ideas. You cannot afford to miss out.

Sickle & Torch A zero level hero roleplaying supplement for 5e, Dungeon Crawl Classics and Shadowdark

Mihailo over at @loreplaypress.bsky.social just launched crowdfunding for Sickle & Torch. I've read through the core book and it is filled with great ideas on how to expand on 0-level play, extending it past a single funnel while making it fun and survivable! Of course I pledges. I rate it an A+

Scientists crack the case of "screeching" Scotch tape Micro-cracks travel along the peeling tape at supersonic speeds, producing shock waves and sound pulses.

In other news, you know that popping-screeching that scotch tape makes? Essentially, it is a string of tiny little sonic "booms". That certainly was not on my science bingo card, nor was the fact that pulling the tape in a vacuum can generate x-rays.

Oh, and this is both funny and harsh!

Good morning Blue Sky. Despite everything, I am indeed feeling pretty good this morning. Vance is snoring away, I got a decent night's sleep for the 1st time since I don't know when, and I enjoyed my last Aussie Lemonade (a gift from friends in the UK). Life might not be great, but I'll take good.

I’m going to keep talking about the Trump- Epstein files.

Vance is snug in his new spot in my office (a spare chair near my desk) and I think, for the first time in a while, my mind is calmed enough that I can sit and write for a while. This is a good thing. Of course, there are many things to write - so I need to get to it.

<turns to dust>

Wait, the first Scream movie was THIRTY YEARS SGO?!?!?!

Okay, so long as you haven’t found some new method for continuing creative work while asleep that you aren’t sharing…

Yeah, Vance’s cancer diagnosis has really pummeled my spirit. The fact that he now rarely wants to leave my side when Jen is away leaves me wanting to hold him forever, forsaking all things. I just want him to feel safe and loved.

Wait, you are sleep writing?!

I never thought about it but… I think you could be right!

It is confirmed, Vance has been diagnosed with Nasopharyngeal lymphoma. Waiting to hear from the compounding pharmacy so that we can start a round of oral chemotherapy.

Poor little guy just wants to enjoy sunbeams and be loved…

Please don’t bombard Jen with questions.

Results seem to be in. Waiting for the call and snuggling Vance.

Hey Blue Sky, not having a great day. Still waiting for Vance's biopsy results and I'm fairly certain that they will be positive. That will give a sense of finality to the countdown of how long we have left with him and, damn, I'm just not ready.

It has come to my attention that my recent posts may have been taken as a reflection of my (or Jen's) current health. This is not the case.

Just trying to keep my shit together today, it isn’t easy.

Just trying to keep my shit together today, it isn’t easy.

Testing for fungal infection, specific bacterial infections… and biopsy for possible cancer.

Not a great day, more testing needed

Yeah, my office has become his sick room. He's just sleeping on my desk and moping. Big vet visit on Tuesday...

Good morning Blue Sky. Spending today focused on our boy Vance, who is still under the weather….

Huzzah!!!!!

Unless his grandfather is lying to cover for his grandson. That isn't beyond the realm of possibility.
