He/him. Reader and part time cat furniture. Trying to recall how this social media stuff is supposed to work.
Here are some photos of Pixie's ascites, if it helps. I'd noticed she was a bit plumper, but this was the day I really figured out something wasn't right...

Vet took a sample and drained, sample came back negative, so he started treating for left-side heart failure

And buried away in the app is also an "Appliance Statistics" menu, which shows that we're actually under loading it!

Although I think this is only taking the washing load I to account, not the drying load...

Colour me surprised, but Evri just surpassed my expectations by delivering something at nearly 9pm.

Shame I've got to send it back, but a cracked whetstone is no use to anyone.

Shit, just realised my #ProofOfCat had expired.

That's a nasty fine if you don't renew, luckily Daisy was happy to help me out with a coy little glance...

Oh good grief. Even by the standards of half arsed auto-generated slop, this is an egregious image.

Strongly reminiscent of the old "see how many errors you can spot!" Puzzles from my childhood...

@alepresser.com So it's been a moment since I caught up with SideQuested... life, y'know....

But can I just say I *love* Charlie's body language here? That's just so... "uh-huh. you were saying?"
November 13, 2025 at 7:26 PM
Did you see the "Green Cats" as well?

The Shrine of St Amphibalus in St Albans cathedral was restored during the height of the pandemic.

As a result, one of the replacement grotesques features a face mask.
November 12, 2025 at 4:44 PM
Well, at least we're in good company...

The misgendering here, if they were referring to me, is quite frankly the rudest part of this conversation so far...
November 9, 2025 at 10:49 PM
Could someone kindly point out what was rude and gatekeepery about my reply here?

I'm baffled.

Outright telling them that Overgrowth features flash eating spaceships would have been a spoiler and rude, yes.

Suggesting that they read it if they haven't already, in a thread discussing the topic?!
November 9, 2025 at 9:13 PM
Lol. In what way was that gatekeepery and rude?

If @mjaum.bsky.social didn't know that Overgrowth featured flesh eating spacecraft, then actually saying that would be a spoiler (and hence rude) so suggesting that they read it if they hadn't, was a kindness.

Reply&block sure is fun tho, huh?
November 9, 2025 at 9:03 PM
Huh, I don't think I've noticed a visible sign off my pulse like this before. I was sitting as still as possible, but checked my throat pulse after, and, yep, that was the cadence...

NOM!

Mum got discharged from hospital and has been talking about trying to get a premade butternut squash risotto, and failing to get it…

So I cooked it instead. And by George, that was tasty. I'll be marking that for Tal and myself

Also, first time using my shiny new knife, and oh, that's nice!
November 4, 2025 at 7:13 PM
Ummm...
November 4, 2025 at 8:45 AM
Oh, some shots with it closed as well:

So the app installed without any fuss. It's b&w eink, so browsing is a pita, but that's no different from any reader I reckon.

Lots of nice customisation options for layout and spacing: the Kobo app could learn a trick or two here.

Day three and done!

One shiny new chefs knife, with an Indian rosewood handle! It feels absolutely lovely in the hand!
October 31, 2025 at 6:57 PM
Here's where I left the knife yesterday: sanded with 130 grit and with an initial etch to see the Damascus come out...

A couple were also in to do a one day knife course. "Something choppy" was his idea and "an elven dagger" was hers.

The enknifening continues...

Today I have been making damascus steel...

@cemurphy.bsky.social so you were doing The Dress Controversy a whole three years before it went viral then?

Raven Calls published in 2012, whilst the blue-black Vs white-gold dress went viral in 2015
October 25, 2025 at 8:33 AM
I think I've been to St Martins maybe a dozen times?
October 24, 2025 at 3:59 PM
I don't think I've done bad there for a first crochet project... Even if I did do most of it back to front, and therefore inside out.
