I took my cat up to the cabin this past week. As you can see, it’s going well.

This is Apricot. @dougwig.bsky.social is her human. Her personality is best described as purr purr murder. She loves attention and the other cats but can’t help herself and eventually pounces on anything near her. Lilly has never forgiven Apricot for existing but Apricot still adores her.

TIL, the AT protocol discussed here is the open protocol for Bluesky, not the modem protocol.
I had wondered why everyone was excited to discuss modems again.
