If the bass drops in the forest, and no one is there to hear it, is it still off the chain?

I didn't come once. Not even close. I wasn't treated like a princess, a duchess, a baroness, NOTHING. I wasn't even treated like a citizen. I might as well have been a Roomba he kept bumping into. I feel like I did volunteer work. Community service hours. Court mandated vibes.

We're doing our hair now... brush mine then his then mine...
Tablo, a fluffy black cat, sits on the edge of the sink, luxuriating in the soft pets from mama. His eyes are closed as I stroke his little head, blissed out with rickety purrs He gazes at me with adoration as I pet his little head When I take my hand away, the lingering bliss is enough to keep his eyes closed...

adore (verb): the action of suddenly throwing your head back to catch a glimpse of the person you love

(Apologies for the squeaky voice, but that was ADORABLE) (and boy I say "like" a lot, why hasn't anyone ever told me that LMAOOO)

Sherbet-less and slow-blinking at mama. We're good now ❤️
Tablo, a fluffy black cat, lays on my pa-jamed leg, one peet tucked and one peet free, looking up at me with adoration And I thought I could see a toe bean but it's the AirTag I had to put on him because he escaped recently

Timeline cleanse: Aoife edition.

Some kittenhood pics of my Meep/Eefs/Grey-妹
Four photos of a fluffy grey kitten looking attentively at whatever cheese I was holding, one of them a fuzzy grey blur of swipes as she tries to steal it out of my hand. She has huge Disney eyes, looks like a cartoon of an adorable baby A tiny grey kitten sits on the edge of an ottoman, watching her siblings play Teeny grey kitten with big baby eyes and floofy ears Teeny grey fluffy monster trying to bite the corner of my laptop, ears back in airplane mode, too cute to stop her

r/TwoXChromosomes u/broken-imperfect • 13h I did something incredibly inappropriate at work but it proved my point Today, my male coworker and male manager were talking about the male loneliness epidemic and I heard them say something about how hard men have it on dating apps. And I jumped in and said "you think women have an easy time on dating apps?" And they both said they thought men were unequivocally oppressed on dating apps. So, I pulled up my tinder. And I handed it to them and said, you have 10 minutes to scroll through these oppressed men and find me ONE that you think would make a suitable partner. Some of my favorite quotes included: "Why is he holding a gun to his head?" "Why is he naked?" "Is... he being intimate with another woman in this picture?" (The answer was yes) "Do you think he showers?" (Answer was probably not) "There is a moldy Starbucks drink behind him." "There is a moldy Starbucks drink behind him." Finally, they did find a man who looked like a nice guy, he looked clean and there were no guns or dick picks, and his bio wasn't great but it was general and acceptable. I match with him. His first (and only) message came up about 10 minutes later, and he says "u gon let me fuck?" | also showed them this message. Anyways, they no longer believe woman are just violently bullying average looking men on dating apps. They accept that men are their biggest enemies when it comes to online dating. Should I let my manager swipe on tinder for me? No, I absolutely shouldn't, especially not in the office. Do I think it was worth it? Yes.

"I try not to make fun of people for admitting they don't know things..."
XKCD Cartoon I try not to make fun of people for admitting they don't know things. Because for each thing "Everyone knows" by the time they're adults, every day there are, on average, 10,000 people in the US hearing about it for the first time. Fraction who have heard of it at birth = 0% Fraction who have heard of it by 30 = 100% US birth rate = 4,000,000/year Number hearing about it for the first time = 10,000 / day If I make fun of people, I train them not to tell me when they have those moments. And I miss out on the fun. Two stick figures talking: "Diet coke and mentos thing"? What's that? Oh man! Come on, were going to the grocery store. Why? You're one of today's lucky 10,000.

Describe your cat's personality with one photo
A fluffy black cat sits in the middle of my work area sniffing various ceramic pieces. Beneath his butt is a piece he’s breaking with his back feet. He's gotta be deeply involved in EVERYTHING.

Hilo stalks his siblings when they're by the feeders/water bowl, seeing what's on their plates.

He LOOOOOMS like a goofy 22lb cloud with crossed eyes. This confuses the sensors; he was prob just sniffing the bowl to make sure it's really water.

Greedy doofus
Notification from Sure Petcare Tablo 타블로 and Hilo 힐로 drank together and have collectively drunk 7 ml of water from 水

Over the last year he’s become more and more tolerant of me moving around under him, no longer leaving me because the "vibes were bad" (I twitched under the blankie). Just now I lifted him up, one hand on his body, almost 30°, to move my leg and did he move? Hell nah, this is prime cuddle territory.

Tweet: ky peterson @KyPeterson5 NOT EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT FOOD STAMPS & RAMEN NOODLES. AND SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT WALKING TO THE LAUNDROMAT WITH BIG BAGS OF CLOTHES, BOILING WATER ON THE STOVE FOR BATHS, AND LIGHTING CANDLES IN THE HOUSE BECAUSE THE POWER WENT OFF & NOT BECAUSE IT WAS STORMING. SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT HAND-ME-DOWNS, SECOND-HAND CLOTHES, OR SLEEPING ON THE COUCH OR THE FLOOR. SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT GETTING GROCERIES AT A FOOD PANTRY OR WAITING IN A LUNCH LINE FOR A MEAL, OR TURNING THE OVEN ON TO HEAT THE HOUSE. SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT HAND WASHING CLOTHES IN THE TUB OR IN THE SINK AND DRYING THEM ON A CLOTHESLINE. SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT SHOWERING AT SOMEONE ELSE'S

Y'all there's a whole nother fleece blanket over there on the bed 🤣

it's the first "chilly" day this fall, so they're camping out on blankies now.
Two black cats claiming a few inches of a fleece blankie with their spines touching, both pretending not to notice the other is there.

Never been to one of their outlets but I’m probably grateful for that bc I REALLY don’t need a hundred $$ bags. I'm not that girl...usually
The handbag in question is an architectural glossy medium warm brown leather tote with straps that curve into the sides of the bag gracefully, almost like leaves. It's hard to describe but it looks exquisite.

My sister torturing my niece, a very anxious Berner, with an inflatable T-Rex costume. THAT FACE 🤣😂
My sister in the costumes standing over the frozen dog. The pupper has a whale-eye showing her anxiety, her tail tucked tight against her as she sits on the edge of the couch, like a person but not. Closeup of the dog's face, she’s clearly not having a great time The doggo has laid down on her side, head upside down, showing submission to the "monster" with big doglike teeth. The t-Rex has the head of the doggo in its mouth 🤣 my sister was inside the costume, talked sweet to soothe the very relieved but still confused dog, so pupper got in the t-Rex mouth to lick her face

The recipe I found is baffling, and I’m trying to make it make sense. It sounds terrible?
INGREDIENTS • 4 slices bacon • ½ cup chopped onion or can use green onions • ½ cup chopped green pepper • ½ cup chopped celery • 2 cups cooked rice of any kind • 2 teaspoons soy sauce INSTRUCTIONS 1. Cook bacon in a skillet, remove and drain on paper towels. Leave bacon drippings in skillet and add onion, green pepper and celery cooking until browned. 2. Add cooked rice and soy sauce and cook on medium low for about 10 minutes to combine flavors. NOTES You could add pimentos or mushrooms to this dish. I also...

Timeline cleanse! Post a beautiful or adorable thing, please.
Tablo sits with his butt on my desk and his front feet on my chest, blissfully napping half on the desk, fluffy belly suspended over the gap between me and the desk. He’s like an Obsidian Gate Bridge of warm needy fluff Tablo looking at an Epik High sweatshirt he wants to cuddle up on. Yes I bought it 🤣 In a photo r/petthedamncat would appreciate: A dust bunny cat rests between the keyboard and the edge of the desk, eyes mostly closed, in a tight loaf, front feet together, daintily supporting him. I took the picture then scooped him up and kissed his belly.
