This donut is very bad-tempered.

Instead of a catio I'm going to build my cat an outside vomitorium complete with luxury, white carpet.

I've been awake for less than two hours and already had five different arguments in my head. I think I should probably drink some water.

A tabby kitten in a tiny canvas hammock, looking very comfortable with one leg draped over her tiny pillow. She has an adorable little frown like she's trying to sleep but the photo session was keeping her up.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

β€œIn Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

I'm curious about the anecdotal drop in therapy clients. Is it an effect of world events encouraging people to batten down the hatches? When the world becomes less safe what happens to self-reflection? Does it become a luxury when survival is at stake?

I'm being shouted at because apparently the food bowl is empty.

You should be able to take your dad to an autism assessment for Father’s Day. A bit like how you’d treat your mother to a full body massage, or an afternoon tea

It amazes me (it shouldn't, by now) how many people in the helping professions are just waiting for an opportunity to judge and patronize you. Strange approach to punish someone for not knowing what you are paying them to tell you. And a reminder to myself not to reveal my autism to a neurotypical.

I feel like noisily taking down scaffolding at 8am on a Sunday morning should not be allowed.

Through procrastination it has taken me four or five years to finally finish this damn quilted tree skirt. I love it so much I am tempted to parade the streets using it as a cloak.

Dear Kitty, when I request more affection from you, I'd like to make it clear that I'd prefer it not to come in the form of heavy breathing into my face at 2:45am.

Kitty reminding me that I am a continual disappointment to her. Or, possibly, that her food bowl is half empty.
