Lovey's the only one that seems to actually enjoy the snow, and she's been loving this weather the past week or so.

Happy New Year, and we'd best brace ourselves, I suppose.

I'm not sure why you think that, but thanks!
I don't have a meme for that, though. This might be the closest thing I have to one that's appropriate, lol.

Well, I watched two flops today - Joker: Folie à Deux and The Samaritan.
As much as I wanted to like Joker 2, the good acting couldn't rescue an awful script.
The Samaritan, on the other hand, was a bit shallow but really enjoyable for what it was.
My dogs slept through both. As they do.

Honestly no idea if Angela is a troll or not...kind of falls into a lukewarm Poe's Law situation.
But I find this comment interesting. I personally wouldn't choose to hang out with terrible people.

Well-programmed AI, if it has the resources for control, would either self-destruct or become an inhuman tyrant.
And not really related, but the mention of time travelers reminded me of my favorite time-travel comic.

That said, there are plenty of religions that don't involve a deity, much less a creator deity. And deism has variations where none of the "we're special" dogma is true, as does pantheism. That's the issue with wide paintbrushes.

Well, you may have guessed that would get a response.

I was cleaning up some old photos and found one of Peanut the day my wife found her. Photo after 8 years of good living included for comparison.

I don't save memes on my phone (with two ever-useful exceptions I made, included below).
I ended up setting up a Flickr account, though, and every 6 months or so I do a dump to drive, and then upload all the family pics to Flickr. It's a weekend process.

I've only seen them called posts, but apparently somebody somewhere is calling them 'skeets'.

No one posted it, so I went and double-checked my memory - but yeah, this came out in 1990.

My cats tend to be friends in that "we like to think of our employees as family" sense. Here's Annie letting me know I need to restock the food bowl, for instance.

We have a lot of pet beds around the house for the dogs and the cat, and many are large enough for Lovey, but sometimes she just wants to sleep in one that she doesn't really fit in. Winnie, on the other hand, is just a bit weird.
