Healthcare workers need to unionize

The keno addicts at the bar i work at are wild. They just keep silently putting in money and watching the drawings. I prefer that to the ones who try to explain their strategies to me or complain that some number appears in every drawing. Or the guy who came in Wednesday night and kept betting $10 that the first pitch of every at bat of the Mets/Brewers game was gonna be a strike. It's bleak.

Now you just hook your debit card to the machine and you don't even have to put a coin in!

Been wilding out baking pumpkin bread, pumpkin brittle, pumpkin cheesecake, and buckeye cookies, but that's only been 12 eggs, including my meals

Peope cleared out the local grocery store of eggs on Tuesday despite our eggs being overwhelming laid domestically. The idiotic cherry on top was that the giant packs of 60 eggs were untouched. So everyone was buying a bunch of one dozen egg packs, and just leaving the bulk stuff. So that's how I, a single guy who lives alone, ended up with 60 eggs

His company, his newsletter, his name on it. Often tomes racist shot was directly attributes to him. So either he believed in that, condoned it, or felt that racism was a great vehicle to sell his ideology. I'm not sure whoch of those makes him a good person, or makes his ideology not about racism.

The point is that Ron Paul was a true, modern, libertarian in that his "freedom" and "liberty" shtick was always about freedom to do segregation via "freedom of association" and other such nonsense. Ron Paul created the libertarian to fascist pipeline because libertarianism has mever been anything but veiled racism

Ron Paul wass popular becausue of his racist newsletter back in the 80's. Everything else was just whitewash.

Someone brings it up once and others like the idea. It's no different than how March Madness took over offices 20 years ago.

I do. That code is: get fat, fuck, destroy all opposition

Strange, because the idea of shelling New Jersey seems very natural to the rest of us

 
 

Finally got everyone to the vet today. Both girls were perfect and everyone there loved them. Absolutely no fussing, even when they got theor FVRCP vaccines. Now everyone is sleeping off the excitement. This is the first time i think i have ever seen them sleep in the condo at the same time

 

I do weekly baking challenges and decided to do Cincinnati chili since it's not a true regional delicacy unkess people argue about it anytime it is brought up. My friends have lived here in NW Ohio for 3 years and mever tried Skyline, so i brought it over to them. I forgot the oyster crackers, and they were hesitant to put the full mountain of cheese, but over all they enjoyed it.

That's her absolute favorite toy, so it stays inside the cat condo on my dresser. Both kitties like to nap up there, but only Nini ever goes in to grab her mouse. And yes, the mouse is named Merlin lol.

 
 

Someone just walked into the restaurant i work at, dumped this soaking wet kitten in the lobby, and left without saying a word. I just got a kitten this month, so i took her home with me since i have kitten supplies and everyone else at work has too many pets.

She cried the whole ride home, and my kitten (13 weeks old), Niniane was not happy about the new cat. I took the stray into the bathroom and fed her. Afterwards i weighed her and she wasn't even 2lbs. She was absolutely filthy, so i gave her a quick bath without much struggle.

I dried her off and groomed her with the slicker brush and then let Niniane into the bathroom so they could socialize a bit. Nini was curious, but very standoffish and mostly just hissed while the stray just wanted to climb into my lap. I put a cat hammock, scratching post, and some toys in the bathroom (none of which Nini uses) and have locked the stray in there until i know she is litter trained. Currently she is jist sleeping in the hammock, so i think I'll leave her there for the night and try to socialize the kittens some more tomorrow.

Edit: i think i am gonna call her Boudica. It's much better than "the stray". She just peed in the litter box and even buried it, so that's a massive step. Unfortunately I'm still gonna keep her in in the bathroom for the next few days, but I'm so glad she used the litter box.

 
 
 

Absolutely devastating story. Gaudreau was supposed to be in his sister's wedding today. Instead, he and his brother were stuck by a drunk driver while cycling last night.

Never had a kitten before, but i got her from a friend of a friend for free. She is a couple weeks shy of 3 months old and is an absolute sweetheart. No accidents outside the litter box after a week, and she has even let me trim her paws!

She was 2lbs 5ozs when i got her and she is growing well. She's way less shy than when i got her and has become super curious and playful the past week.

 

I am axtive in communities that requite uploading images, but i haven't been able to properly upload any images using Sync in months. The communities are across multiple instances, so I believe it is a Sync issue.
