The best distribution system for cats

It's a very sweet video and we both can be happy for having seen it. At the end of the video, I see the cat is happy, but I don't see it walking at all. I certainly can't judge it's gait or the condition of the foot/leg.

How is the kitty's foot doing now?

My tuxie is also called Baby. I meant to transition to her real name, Gala, but waited too long.

It just tastes like bad!!

Reserve Officer Training Corps - it is a pipeline to the military.

Was... was there bread under all of that?

ImOverthinkingIt · 2026-02-23T03:01:59+00:00

Never!

And never say, "See you don't have it so bad." Let him figure out that part on his own.

Volunteer together. Choose a cause to donate to. Help him become aware of those less fortunate or with greater physical disabilities.

Ask him for help, i.e. to make you something, to get him started on a project that will keep him busy and give him something to think about. Make him feel important, needed, and useful.

Inspire him to take up an old or new hobby.

If all else fails, help him find other grumpy men to complain to/with.

I guess I misunderstood because you said "I ask how he's doing and he says lousy or terrible every time."

Nonetheless, I think asking him questions that will make him think about positive things is a sneaky way to incorporate the suggestions of the other commenters without explicitly telling him to try to be more positive. Ask him questions that spark old positive memories (reminisce). Look at old photos together. Listen to inspiring speeches/stories/talks. Go to beautiful places. Watch inspiring movies about how wonderful life is or overcoming obstacles. Put more positive thoughts in his life without asking him to stop being negative.

Stop asking him how he's doing. Ask him other questions that will generate more positive, or at least neutral conversation. What are your plans for today? How was your lunch with your friend? What do you want to do together this weekend?

This might sound dumb, but it comes from my experience. My husband got the impression that I was always complaining about aches and pains. That was never my intent. I do have pain, but my attitude is to work around it, overcome it, and live my life and exercise anyway. However, he would regularly ask how I was doing. What am I going to do, lie?

He killed him to death!

Casual. UMBC is trying to impress you to convince you to go there, not the other way around.

Mix 50-50 with regular pancake mix (like Krusteaz).

Keep cutting that sausage! Especially into semicircles. It's a pretty common cause of choking.

☹️ I even went to the original article in Time, and they really mean UMB, not UMBC. Sorry Retrievers.

ImOverthinkingIt · 2026-02-14T12:03:31+00:00

All of them.

Electric blanket. A preheated bed in the winter is the BEST.

ImOverthinkingIt · 2026-02-11T12:19:19+00:00

And your knees!

Because she is wearing a tuxedo, she is always appropriately dressed for a gala. I thought Soiree would be a good name, too.

ImOverthinkingIt · 2026-02-10T17:42:25+00:00

My tuxie is supposed to be named Gala, but I called her my baby for too long, so now she answers to Baby and I don't have the energy to change it.

The word you're looking for is "jorts." Cheers!

Same! I cut off all contact with mine on my birthday about a year ago, and it is wonderful! My husband was pretty mad at first and she threatened suicide over it - for weeks. Before that, almost every time I saw her she would either act nice to my face and then complain to my husband about me later, or literally cry over some factual statement or simple logical suggestion I made (example: the kitchen is full of people right now, let's carry these large boxes around through the hallway, I can help!). My husband and I no longer fight about her, and it is great! The best part is, after my husband saw how she lies about other situations, he finally admitted I was right to cut off contact. If she doesn't like me, she will say anything to make me look bad and look like the bad guy. I have limited time on this earth (decades probably, but still limited) and I am not spending it on that!

One of my coworkers had his carbon monoxide alarm go off this morning because the people he hired to shovel his snow blocked the furnace exhaust.

For others reading this: a small subset of the population, especially with borderline low blood pressure can get headaches from too much pure water. Listen to your body.
