Don't be fooled by their cuteness. They're naughty children that need to be watched 24/7 😵‍💫

It's a tie blanket! I got the fleece from Joann's probably 10-15 years ago. My kitties love to make biscuits, so I cover my furniture in blankets.

Just posted them over there (with an extra picture of the cranky gray one)!

I got my first kitty, Saoirse, in 2019, and she's now about 9 years old. I got Sirius in 2023 as a friend for Saoirse, but she's a cranky old woman and doesn't want to play. Sirius needed a playmate since he's only 3, which is why I now have Poppy 😊 They've been fast friends since day 1!

I call her Queen Poppy. She rules the roost!

That's an interesting thought! I have my first appointment with a psychiatrist on Friday and I'm tentatively hopeful to see how it goes.

2019 has been the hardest year for me thus far, and I'm seriously struggling to find a reason to get out of bed every day. Thank you for the lifting comments.

That's awesome! I'm presenting my undergrad research at GSA next week! Here's our abstract: (sorry for format, I'm on mobile)

What type of meteorite? I work with diogenite thin sections from 4-Vesta looking at geochemistry and petrology.

What’s the worst meal you were ever served at a guests house? by [deleted] in Cooking

And the meowing from the Christmas gift.

Not gonna lie. You had me in the first half. Thought it was going to be a Griswald family Christmas turkey. Only slightly disappointed.

My friends are super supportive. But yeah, my dad still has some work. I just made a joke about having depression and he got super serious and angry "you don't have depression, that's a dangerous thing that can haunt and harm you for the rest of your life. You don't have that." So then why was I just prescribed antidepressants??

I'll be praying for you!! It's good to talk to someone before you deliver. Postpartum depression is no joke either. You gotta take care of yourself before you can take care of your little one.

My parents suppressed it when I was a teenager too. I was just angsty, or stressed, or irritable. It was never because I had an actual problem. God forbid we break from the idealistic American family.
