Yesterday was one of the hardest days of my life. After six months of struggling and fighting, we lost both Kaylee and River to cancer.
Kaylee had been living on opiates for weeks, and honestly, I think she would have just kept on that way just to make me happy, until everything failed.

Ok, we need to talk about how both #Doc and #BrilliantMinds are both doing these gas-lighting, driving someone crazy for revenge and/or profit...
Just. Fucking. No.
Who on earth thought this was a good narrative choice to explore for either of these shows?
Spare me with the torture-porn.

Interesting take, though I'm not sure I'd call @matthewmercer.bsky.social s Blood Hunter a "clear Witcher homage" as much as I would a clear Grey Warden homage.

D&D icon Matt Mercer's original Blood Hunter class fights its way into Daggerheart
The Witcher-coded blood manipulating warrior always felt undercooked in Dungeons and Dragons - how will it fare in narrative-first Daggerheart?

I'll never really stop being disappointed with #BrendanBrazier for selling #Vega to a soulless corp, who seem to have sold it further to some more soulless hedge fund? What was a staple for years is not essentially unbearable chocolate sand to me.
Okay, that's not entirely fair.

Well, its been almost 2 weeks since John Oliver said some cats deserve cancer.
River has had her third chemo session, & our oncologist tells us she's showing signs of improvement.
Kaylee had her stitches out & she starts radiation treatment next week.

So Kaylee's stitches are out, but the vet can't be sure that her cancer isn't already growing back, she's joining her sister at the oncologist for cancer treatment.

Hey folks,
If you've been following my threads for even a couple of months, you'll have seen that we lost two cats so far this year from health issues -- now our youngest two are both struggling with two different types of cancer.

First cat made it thru surgery; had to have a chin reconstruction after they removed the (hopefully not cancerous) growth.
She's absolutely tripping balls though.
