    Hey thanks a lot for the kind words, it means a lot to me. She was very vocal and would respond when I talked to her. It's only been a few hours but I miss her talking back already

    Towards the end she would not eat her normal cat food at all. I could only get her to eat human food like tuna, cheeses smoked kippers, and fresh catnip, so at least she went out high with a full belly

    Yeah theres kwik trip around here but I 100% dont shop there since the owners donate to gop candidates and are pro life and dont even sell condoms at their stores. Besides that though I've been making my own bread on and off for about a decade now, flour and yeast is much cheaper and tastier than a manufactured loaf anyway.

    One trick I've learned to make a good loaf is the windowpane test which you cant really do with a bread machine. You grab a little chunk of kneaded dough roll it in a circle wait a few mins for it to rise then grab 4 corners and pull it apart. If its translucent and you can see light through it without it tearing it's ready to rise then bake

    Thanks I really appreciate the support. I took her to the emergency vet 2 months ago and been giving her blood pressure pills and hyperthyroidism pills to keep her going. But i had to have her euthanized a few hours ago since she could hardly move or see since she had atrophied iris'. I buried her in the strawberry garden in my parents yard and have been drinking since

    A union job or working in a coop is really the way to go even if you struggle along the way. Also I'd kill for 3$ a loaf cheap bread. I live in bumfucksville WI and a cheap loaf is at least 5$ a loaf while the average income is around 40k a year in my county

    Probably oil and railroad monopolies and lax regulation of Ford motor company. Also creation of federal reserve in 1913 plenty of special interests vying for control of the money spigot

    I hate this whole fuckin debacle. Biden saying theres a red line if israel attacks Rafah. Israel attacks Rafah and biden backpedals and equivocates with israel. ICC and ICJ say theres a genocide happening and puts out warrants for crimes against humanity on netanyahu and Hamas leaders. Yet Biden says there's no genocide happening despite his hard stance on rules based order which hes mentioned quite a few times

    I get that Israel is the US's only ally in the middle east but ffs how can you still supply them with weapons after watching these atrocities take place. Also it's certainly unpopular and is losing him votes in swing states, if the uncommitted votes during the primaries is any indicator not even to mention the polling. I guess I'm just flabbergasted how poorly this is being handled and am worried this is a Trump presidency speed run

    Oh wait I got this, how about the bit about the oldest child taking care of the younger ones. They get to grow up fast and spend their precious time being an unpaid babysitter instead of actually being a kid pretty much ruining their childhood.

    Or how about the bit where the parents deliberately have so many kids gambling one will get rich and take care of them when their old. These natalists are delusional and I actually know a few irl that have said or done these and frankly its fuckin disgusting to me

  • The softwood kind of fuzzed out but otherwise everything turned out pretty good after a solid sanding. I used oak for the wood tiles, birch for the sheep and wheat, and ash for the ore with various stains for each
