Same on both counts

I feed my cats their wet food on large plates the size of dinner plates. The assholes still prefer to paw it onto the floor and eat it off there, and then leave a mess everywhere. They get their kibble in a wide shallow bowl, and that stays in place.

I just got an autofeeder for my cats. Wonderful thing. My cats still come to me and sit and scream for food for the hour before each mealtime, and we argue about whether or not they currently need my participation in mealtime, right up until the thing kicks on, then they're off like a shot. It's hilarious.

(Clearly I don't know anything about aerodynamically engineering)

I've never been motivated to create a time machine, but you've suddenly made it extremely appealing...

You think zip ties will hold together at those speeds? Not to mention cause drag due to the tiny bumps? Do you know anything about aerodynamical engineering?

You have to zip tie it together, then duct tape over top nice and smooth for extra holding strength and to reduce wind resistance. Boeing, hire me instead!

1 is when I have had to pee for the past 2 hours but have had a warm happy kitty on my lap that I didn't want to disturb but now the situation is dire.

2 is every other time.

I'm down 40ish in a year. I mean, it's weight I've been trying desperately without success to lose for years, but eventually I'm going to run out. And then when it's 3am on a Tuesday and I'm lying awake mentally working through my budget for the 11th time that week I go "I've been stressed and skipped meals before and never lost weight, do I have cancer? Because I really can't afford that."

Alcohol turns me into a very morose, mellow philosopher who thinks the world is even darker and more fucked than I think when I'm sober. It also gives me the munchies.

I thought that was supposed to be weed that did that. But I've never smoked weed, so idk. I've pretty much stopped drinking.

I worked at [generic big-name eyeglass store/optometrist] for a few months and we weren't allowed to adjust any eyeglasses that weren't purchased at our store because if they broke while we were trying to bend them we couldn't just get another frame and replace them, but also it was 2022 and they only paid me $12/hr so if someone came in and seemed chill I'd always be like hey, I'm obviously going to try really hard to not break your glasses, but sometimes shit happens and if it does you are on your own because you didn't get them here and I'm not allowed to do this, and would just adjust them.

I have mullvad and also browse certain Reddit communities without an account. Some of the servers still get through. If you're using US servers I know there are a few of the NY, Atlanta, and Virginia servers I've been able to get through on. I've also gotten through on some of the West Coast ones but I can't remember which ones, I only remember the last 3 because they were the last ones I trial and error throughed while actually paying attention to which servers I was connecting to instead of picking at random.
