Oh what a cutie!!! Such a lion I once read a book about how to look after cats, and chapter 1 honestly had a sentence that said, ”so, how do you get used to miniature lions sharing your home!”.Thor's cute at the moment, he looks like a mini lion. He's all saggy, bless him.

sideboard cat is the perfect mascot for our threads. she's clearly very intelligent because she chose you, sidey t. and also, she's so gorgeousApols to the sheepos, how could I forget sheepos! Lovely to see a goato and otteros too. Just going save time and climb into a coffin now as spite bedding has nearly finished me.
Here's a pretzel cat. Good luck working out what's going on here. I'm not fully convinced she has all the bones she ought to have.

I LOVE this! Cornell University have Red Tailed Hawks on a live cam who coincidentally also have four eggs this year. It’s so therapeutic to watch. Here’s more infoK, so I've not got a fact I'm afraid, but I feel the need to share this twitter account with you all. it's a webcam that's trained on a peregrine nest on top of a church next door to the university in sheffield city centre.
the parents have just laid 4 eggs and there's a big following who keep their eyes on it. it's lovely
They look fab!Last night me and some pals had a Japanese inspired night. Me and Mr Kebab were on side dishes, one of the things we made was temari sushi:

For the trial run I used tutorials from this guy: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHA2IcIaFU7BwlLksNr9UQQ
I find him really relaxing to listen to - he lives in Germany but went back to his parents house and did a tour of a traditional Japanese home which was fascinating.
TBH the yellow radish (takuan) is a bit blerghhh but I think if you love a pickle you'd like it. We also made inari which are my fave but they were not photogenic soz
Sorry to the frauen who have haywire things going on in the hystero department. I've had a mare the past couple of years with various issues and am just thankful my GP has been an uber-babe with helping me so sending positive GP-vibes. If I could post her to you I would.
I was wearing gorgeous, light coloured pants yesterday and randomly started bleeding. I'm 100% blaming the Covid I had the other week, but I will also keep an eye on it. I'm prone to spotting due to only having had my copper IUD for a few months but this was like a full blown period

I call WoohCat1 bear, and WoohCat2 lion. "You're like a LION", I say to 2, as if in great wonder and awe. He looks so proud when I say it.Lmao, mine remind me of bears. Big bums and feet.
It certainly sounds terrifying. Please can you point me to any article re the "why" of this energy bill issue you're all facing? I've googled but the algorithms are sending me in the wrong directionWoohcat1 is

OMG I love “this is not my cat” listicles you could totally do one with fake BowieCatI've just discovered my idiot (solid black, newton's cradle-for-a brain) rag doll cross has a doppelganger. I saw it in the street near my other two so tried to call it in, and it just stared at me which is very on brand for my raggie so I kept trying until my ACTUAL cat came out the house looking confused. I was utterly baffled for a second and then he wandered off with his doppelganger.
I then caught the fake cat trying to get in my bedroom window and I've since been wondering if I've spent the past however many months feeding two identical cats.
Forbidden tummy fur on display there.The energy prices are a perfect storm of events. The government fixed the top price to help consumers, but it was always going to end. The effects of Brexit and covid coincide with Russia invading Ukraine (where a lot of gas comes from or passes through). Prices were artificially low for a long while. The number of energy companies meant smaller ones went bust when wholesale prices started to climb. The infrastructure needs constant maintenance which seems to have spiralling costs too.
It's been building for 3 years to where we are now. I have no idea how the country gets out of it. That said, I am not an accountant or economist - just about bright enough to realize I'm too thick to know how it could be resolved.
I'm guessing Rishi will step in, but it will be at the expense of something else. It's a weird situation, but then all current affairs feels like that to me at the moment. What won't fix the problem is cooking in pineapple juice or putting water in the oven.
No interesting food to report. Have a cat picture instead. She has just woken up and seemed surprised to see me.

There’s a thread on here with this theme called the winter of discontent that I lurk/occasionally post on, I’m not sure how legit some of the commenters are but some people post esssaaaaays on this stuff. Stuff about food shortages and cost of farm stuff and energy supply issues, it’s but sounds up your street?The energy prices are a perfect storm of events.

Oh, I'm way too scared of the rest of Tattle! I looked at that thread when it started and initially seemed interesting but it seems hard to post without getting snotty replies. It took me nearly 6 months to post on the JM thread, even though everyone is very kind & considered in their posts.There’s a thread on here with this theme called the winter of discontent that I lurk/occasionally post on, I’m not sure how legit some of the commenters are but some people post esssaaaaays on this stuff.

It is a perfect storm. Not at all saying 🥹think of the over leveraged middle classes🥹 but yikes at this all being so close to the stamp duty holiday where you had people massively over stretching themselves at a time interest rates were microscopic (0.1%? Iirc?) now we’ve had two rises since and this. I anticipate a ton of Telegraph money “the squeezed middle” articles going viral on Twitter
