The only reason wild/feral cats don't cook their food is that they have no way to do so.

Given the choice between raw and cooked food, most animals will choose the cooked food. It's easier to digest, easier to chew, and tastes better. They don't know it, but it's also safer.
"There is ZERO reason pets should be fed raw diets. Stop endangering pets because of wellness influencer disinformation."
H5N1 is a concern for many reasons—it is also the reason domestic cats are dying after being fed raw pet food and raw dairy.

This “idea” is an atrocity.

For ACTUAL information on H5N1, read some of my articles on the topic:

If you don't know what Roko's Basilisk is, it's basically Pascal's Wager for people who fall for online phishing scams
well, i finally cracked and looked up wtf roko’s basilisk is and somehow, unbelievably, a lot of very wealthy men are about a thousand times more pathetic than i previously assessed.

Three years ago, three other reporters and I ID'd and called any school accused of having litter boxes for furries.

We found one (1) in the entire country: Columbine's school district.

Cat litter was for a "go bucket," in case kids were locked in during a shooting.

Shouting into the void

I am exhausted by illness 24/7. I can’t come and find every person who comes to my house. Because it’s hard for me to leave the house, more people come to me.
I will give you clear directions. You just need a tiny, tiny bit of initiative. 😭

Apple TV is shit. I can’t chromecast it to my TV, I can watch Cowboy Bebop for £2.50 per episode, I can watch cool films as long as I pay extra for all of them, I can’t search for anime… I’ve basically just paid £7.99 to watch Severence on my laptop 🫤

what AI boosterism reminds me of is Uri Geller's "psychic" spoon-bending. even if it works, we have better, quicker, more reliable ways to bend spoons. but more to the point: we don't need bent spoons

My first response to this was surprise, then optimism, then to start singing “Bendy, nervy people” to the tune of REM
This is extremely interesting stuff. Great to see researchers looking seriously at these links between mind and body, with a focus on supporting interventions to improve mental health.

Now with AI features!

- AI can help you shit in a pond
- AI can send your boss an email full of duck emojis 🦆
- AI can tell you it’s done the washing up, without actually doing it
- AI can tell the difference between a banana and a strawberry

AI features are always useful!

3 years ago, before I got sick, I took apart a whole shed.
Today I tried to put a cupboard door back on and my back went into horrible spasms

I hate how weak this has left me
