I go with Rayne Nutrition’s kangaroo maint. It’s like a nasty stew that both cats LOVE. Rayne also has another roo in a can that’s more solid.

I hate thinking about Woody Allen, Mia Farrow, or Soon-Yi, but this exchange is worth drawing attention to.

Wild Hunny On The Shrouds, Hunny, Grok, Ani, and Elon Musk

Today I read @violetlucca.bsky.social’s piece on THE SHROUDS, Hunny the “extreme obsequiousness” of AI chatbots and how Cronenberg’s films are “extensions of what currently exists”. Have had this essay bookmarked for a while,& today of all days, I really needed it.

Yeah I could watch a screener of a new movie. Or I could watch a bad VHS rip of something that aired on British television and make my soul sing.

So much online “journalism” now relies on twisting what happened into the most hysterical outcome for the headline and having people only reading that and not the story itself (which does have proper qualifiers)
