I can’t get past the headline. The spouse’s perspective might make for a funny Substack but nyt should do better, see also: women ruining the workplace.

Thank you for making me feel momentarily better about it. Wow I even feel less bad about all the time I’ve wasted making absolutely sure my own sentences don’t make that kind of mistake…

This is a rhetorical question right? The point is the same as in any other class action suit…. billable hours

Gee how surprising a bunch of conspiracy theorists conspiracy theorizing about each other. Put them in charge and what do you expect?

In all the despair, I do find it funny that republicans are at risk of being “primaried” no matter which way they vote. Musk has more money than trump, no?

My guy is diabetic so his eyes deteriorated on the fast side, and we were able to keep him comfy with eyedrops for ~a year. Hopefully your cat will fare better! Meanwhile it’s inspiring to watch them adjust to loss of vision—humans could learn a lot from pets’ resilience.

We had my dog’s eyes removed in November—he’s so much happier now that he’s no longer in pain. It wasn’t an easy decision but I’m glad we did it. Hope your kitty has many good days ahead!
