Oh! I've never met a cat who didn't love that kind of spring toy (www.jacksongalaxy.com/products/spr...) but they ALWAYS get stuck under the refrigerator and you never see them again until you move.
Writer Internet is full of pics of writers partying together at conventions, making it easy to feel like that's what you need to do to succeed, but it's actually totally unnecessary. (Fun! But unnecessary.)
The only thing you *need* to do to write professionally is write and submit your work.
Oh, also, a rug rolled up with the underside outermost is going to turn into a scratching post whether you want it to or not.
Cat trees covered in carpet are, ime, shredded very quickly and leave fluff all over your house. That said, cats do like to scratch. I feel like they prefer the underside of carpet to the top, actually.
Personally I'd go scratching post, & non-carpeted tree that gives a nice high-up seat.

Oh no! There's no cure for that! I really hope he doesn't also get a diagnosis of being silly or a goofball. But I fear being a silly goof is so widespread among dogs and often comorbid with terminal cuteness that there's no hope here.
the thing about being part of a diaspora is that your culture is formed around diaspora and people who didn't leave may not share it, even if diaspora culture is a lot about the place from which you left.
At this time, I am speaking of Irish and Irish-American.
Odysseus had his crew lash him to the mast to keep him from doing an interview with Chotiner.
"Handing out editing awards when you can't edit" is classic.
That aside, this summarises my view. BAFTA and the BBC should have all the heat from this incident.
I tell people that if the government is covering up the existence of aliens, NASA is absolutely not involved, because astrobiologists can't keep a secret to save their lives
i keep seeing writers who want both:
* to be bold iconoclasts going against the pretenses and trends of the day and
* to have a perfect 5.0 review score on goodreads
and like, I'm sorry. those things don't go together.
I am doing an online event with the legend that is @tkingfisher.com! We'll be talking about the new book Wolf Worm, the joys of paladins, what is her deal with terrifying horses anyway, and much more. Tickets here, and UK people can get a signed hardback too!

Carl Sagan noted that about von Daniken - he found the astronomy bonkers but the archaeology made sense. Then he talked to an archaeologist friend who'd had the exact opposite impression. The student was enlightened.
"I asked Chat GPT and -" ok, I asked the exhumed corpse of Pope Formosus during the Cadaver Synod and he went "... ... ..." and then his jaw fell off and it was still a better answer
Big "It's one banana, Michael" energy.
Thread. Also, it would be helpful if more people would stop and THINK THINGS THROUGH for like FIVE MINUTES before vexing the rest of us with their thoughtless reactions. You cannot talk about food and restaurant culture without also talking about immigration. They are deeply connected

Found a new vocal stem and coping mechanism today!
Gawain the green knight opening a letter sealed with wax
Little Alex Horne in his studio chair with the caption "so a simple task: land a fair blow anywhere on the green knight. One year later meet him at the green chapel, receive the same blow yourself."
A cut to a wider shot showing Greg Davies in his throne turning to Little Alex Horne subtitled "Well surely no one just ran up and whanged his head clean off."
Cut back to Little Alex Horne subtitled "Let's see Gawain first."
Looks like the original has been swept away by the sands of time.
Um...well, I mean, I don't want to pass judgement on what anyone might consider erotica, you know? But that was...not my intention.
RIGHT???????!!!
