Almost one full week of fostering two very tiny kittens. The shelter originally thought 4ish weeks only to later realize they were barely 3 weeks old

They’re still bottle fed every 4 hours (and will let us know like clockwork when they’re hungry). I’ve also learned they need to burp afterwards 🥹
A very small tabby kitten is reclining while being bottle fed. He has very sad looking eyes but it’s just his facial markings - he’s actually purring while eating. In the background is a gray blanket and various cat toys on the floor An incredibly tiny black kitten is being held while bottle fed. She is roughly the size of an adult human’s hand. In the background is the person holding her, wearing a bright green shirt. A light blue and white blanket is snuggled around the kitten, and she has one of her paws resting on the hand holding the bottle.

Peak orange cat behavior
A light orange cat is attempting to bite a small potted cactus while standing on a windowsill. Next to the cactus, which the cat is leaning over to get to the cactus, is a container of pet grass labeled “PetGreens” with an image of a cat eating wheatgrass. The window behind the cat shows a dark blue evening sky.

9yo’s answers to a school assignment for “3 simple and 3 complex questions” really capture how I never have a moment of peace 💀
A screenshot for a school app, with a visual of a book titled “the thing about spring,” which includes a bear and bunny in a field of flowers. Under the book image is the text Station 6 - The Thing About Spring Listen to the book and then write 3 examples of simple questions and 3 examples of complex questions.

Stumbled across a clothing store category called “CorpCore”
A woman with long hair in a ponytail and glasses sits on a copier. She’s wearing a light blue button down and black sweater vest, navy mini skirt, sheer tights, and black sling back heels. The text on the image reads: THE STYLE HIRE Stuff for the style hire. Win your 9-to-5 (and everything after hours) in tailored suits, structured shirts, and trousers sharp enough to cut through small talk.

If you look very closely, there’s actually 2 cats hiding in this picture - the OG orange boy that used to climb walls, OJ, and our chatty creamsicle, Biscuit
Two orange tabby cats are lounging on a patterned rug, one is a brighter orange while the other is a cream color. The bright orange cat is lying sprawled out on a leopard-print pet mat, with its eyes half-closed and a relaxed posture. The other cream-orange cat is lying on the rug just above the mat, also appearing content and sleepy. They are lying at nearly the exact same angle and position, just a short distance apart.

A surprise to no one, my absolute angel of a cat, JJ, immediately took to the latest super tiny foster kittens - just gave them a little nose boop and started grooming them
A large tabby cat sits next to an extremely small orange kitten, their backs facing the camera. They sit on a small cat perch in front of a window. The tabby cat is bending down to groom the orange kitten’s head.

All of this is extremely serious and awful but can we just acknowledge it’s at least a little bit funny (in the most insane way possible) that a Twitter rumor could manipulate the markets this much

Was telling 16yo about a new song that I was listening to and he called it COWORKER MUSIC

I am going to pass away
A side-by-side comparison of the same image. On the left, a woman with blonde hair tied back in a ponytail, wearing a lavender cardigan over a white shirt, smiles while looking down against a red background. On the right, a highly zoomed-in version of her face reveals extreme pixelation, making her smile appear unnervingly exaggerated and slightly unsettling. Up close, she’s exasperated and barely holding it together.

9yo was telling my dad how crazy it was that Trump said boycotting Tesla was illegal because “you can’t MAKE people buy stuff! It’s illegal to say it’s illegal!” and my dad was like “no, he’s not doing that, you must have misheard it…”

Later sent him the receipts (even used Twitter links!)
Screenshot of a text exchange. Outgoing message shows a Twitter link captioned “White House into a temporary Tesla showroom to showcase…” Outgoing messages shows an image, zoomed in on the note held by Trump at the White House promotional video for Tesla. The note reads: “Testa Pricing; Full Self Driving: Model X - 5112, 498 (Sive CT - $114,000 (Gray) Model S - $108, 940 (Bue) Model 4 - $59,940 (Red)” Outgoing message reads: “Complete with sales pitch notes, like any car salesman likes to have handy” Incoming text message reads: “Wow! That's really cool. I bet Kamala or Joe don't have a Tesla. Lead by example! Maybe someday we'll all own Teslas!!!!”

lol the devil works hard but Wikipedia editors work harder
Screenshot from the Wikipedia article “the king is dead, long live the king!” The screenshot from a section of the article reads: In monarchies which permit female succession to the throne, "king" can be replaced by "queen" where appropriate. On February 19th, 2025, Donald Trump used the term referring to himself in a truth social post, raising alarm bells among the public and officials alike. • Last edited 4 hours ago by 68.192....

Having never lived in a monarchy before, I kinda forgot about that first part and the context of the saying being used when a new monarch is crowned

And uhhh, this doesn’t seem great chat?
Wikipedia article titled “the king is dead, long live the king!” Screenshot from the article reads: WIKIPEDIA The king is dead, long live the king! "The king is dead, long live the king!" [a] is a traditional proclamation made following the accession of a new monarch in various countries. The seemingly contradictory phrase simultaneously announces the death of the previous monarch and asserts continuity by saluting the new monarch.

Async e-learning day due to extreme cold weather again 🫠

Pour one out for the WFH parents tomorrow
A screenshot of an outgoing text message. There’s an image followed by a block of text. The image is Matt Damon standing on the stoop outside a dark blue door, cigarette in hand and dangling by his side. His other hand is in his pocket. His eyes are closed and he has an exasperated look on his face while exhaled smoke wafts into the air. He wears a blue crewneck sweater with sleeves push up his forearms, dark denim jeans, and blue sneakers with white laces. The text reads, “ASYNCHRONOUS E-LEARNING DAY: TUES, FEBRUARY 18 No in-person school for students. Students should check Schoology for work in each class. Txt STOP to cancel”

Anyways, I guess they mean EOD?
