Are there too many cute animals and cats on the internet?

What kind of privileged BS school is this? That is bullshit. When I was a kid, well I never was a kid, I came out as an adult. I never got a childhood.





Just kidding I actually got to bring a goat to show and tell and one day I even got to bring baby chicks to show and tell and I rode the bus with them and got to keep them with me all day. Now that is some fucked up BS too because it was definitely the sweetest thing ever. My mom had to bring the goat in the car tho-I couldn't keep the goat with me all day.

You mean like an asshole, waking its owners up, demanding clean floors at 2 AM. Jerk face! Privileged Rooomba people!

I literally laughed at this until I was in pain:

This one gave me so much joy. Thank you.

Woke up to this lot bundled up together this morning on the sofa in the living room.

Yeah, cats are so cute. They are so funny, especially when they wake you up at 4 am for nothing. Yeah, that is so fun, I really really love it. Thank you cute Coco for giving me the day that I deserve.

Today I had to do bookkeeping. In the best of situations, bookkeeping is miserable, but today's bookkeeping was on 14 year old laptop that is falling apart with software from the 1990s using data from a PDF generated 2 months ago by someone else so no, not looking forward to it. Just as I'm gritting my teeth and steeling myself to tackle it, The Dog goes nuts in the back room. I grudgingly stop what I've just started to go see who is trying to murder us. It's the neighbor. The neighbor is putting some extra trash in his trash can that is out at the street for pickup.

Other cherished experiences of owning a dog include digging through trash because she smelled food in it and has sat down and refuses to move until I get her the food, and standing around while she smells random poops. And dead cats. The dead cats are great. Ordinary roadkill is bad enough but cats are especially unpleasant. Now, say you walk for exercise. Even if you just walk around your neighborhood instead of driving to some fancy hiking trail, you can probably go...I dunno, years and years without seeing a dead cat. Or if you do you go "oh, ick, a dead cat" and move on and forget about it fairly quickly. But when you have a *dog*... A dog will risk your life, crossing a busy street because she smelled a dead cat on the other side of it. Then, once you've got there, you have to stand there for 30-40 seconds and contemplate the dead cat. And the next time you're on a walk in the vicinity you must make a special side trip to go contemplate the roadkill cat.

It's just super.
