@zebratron2084 oooh--thank you, this gives me a good idea about something I actually need help with that I think Dawn would be able to give good advice.
@zebratron2084 pretty much any time Chloe (momma orange and white cat) is in there with the kittens, there's at least a couple of kittens nursing. I suspect she's really looking forward to weaning them. XD
@Leucrotta did you know about the albino redwoods?? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albino_redwood the research that's being done on them is so interesting! and just the fact that they exist is amazing, they're so pretty...
@Leucrotta redwood forests are cathedrals.... vertical lines, dappled light, the quiet and stillness, threaded with green and running water... yeah, I get kinda... intense about them. XD
@zebratron2084 XD well, y'know... kittens! 15% PLAYPLAYPLAYPLAY, 85% SLEEEEEEP. they have the max buffer, I think four hours? so you should be able to go back a bit and see the kittan mayhem. :D
I keep that channel open in one of my tabs all the time nowdays, just so I can constantly check over and see what the furballs are up to.
I'm watching the TinyKittens Kitten Cam https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PowGFq6X3Co and right now it is a KITTEN RIOT. they're bouncing all over everywhere and wrassling with each other and making adorable little trilling sounds. eeeee

@Kistaro yessssss.
@Leucrotta gawd, that's the one thing I really miss about being up here... we've got pines, but they aren't redwoods, and they *feel* distinctly different, and I miss the redwoods *so much*.
2-question mini-survey: pain & fear thereof
a) hmmmm.... on a raw average, I'd say maybe a 1.5. most days I have no pain at all, but when I get abdominal pains or headaches they can be pretty bad. I'd say I have pain on about... 1 day out of 4.
b) 3--I'm a pain weenie. XD
@guerrillarain I feel so called out right now (also, ~accurate~)

@anthracite nice! if I get hit with that scam I'll try to remember that workaround. ;)

@literorrery @Phorm @Thaminga I *immediately* thought of "The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas" when I read that story, and I'm still full of helpless, sick rage, because yeah--if I walk away from Omelas, I will *die*. I *need* some of the Omelas stuff to survive, I don't want to die, and I don't believe just wandering off and dying quietly will make a difference anyway. hnrrgh.
@noelle "honestly curious"... but not very--observant.
@kobold oh yeah, definitely. but it hit *aaaaallll* my personal buttons, so I can't fault it. :D
