Moggy can be used for cats the way mutt is for dogs, but I think it might be more common in the UK? I don’t really hear it in the US, maybe cat breeders use it.

But yeah, for vets and rescues it’s just domestic short hair/long hair (sometimes medium hair).

A manga with 18 naked cowboys? You’ve got my attention, go on

¡Felicitaciones!

I can confirm I’ve seen their ads in person in multiple places in Los Angeles. North Hollywood had a billboard near the Noho gateway sign, and I think the red line? had a bunch of ads on the inside and outside of some of the trains a year or two ago.

The user received a temporary ban.

Every time I reread this sentence I crack up again. What gets you a permanent ban??

Is there a cure, doctor??

That’s what I’ve got in my cooking notes dump for the internal ‘cooked’ temperature for cookies, but that might be a texture rather than a safety thing.

In that case I think the real issue would be how long it’s safe to store at room temperature, since edible cookie doughs do still require refrigeration as far as I know. If you popped an edible cookie dough in for 30 minutes you’d probably be fine, the more hours you tack on the sketchier it gets.

Reminder that cookie dough kept above 40 F/4.4 C but below 190 F/88 C is in the bacterial danger zone that allows bad bacteria to multiply and give you food poisoning.

There’s also some amount of risk from raw dough, but I’m not gonna pretend I don’t ignore that when it comes to cookie dough.

I actually had a coworker that worked in one of the twin towers prior to 9/11 (fortunately he wasn’t working the day it happened), and he thought the ‘ground zero mosque’ hysteria was the stupidest shit. Everyone I talked to in NYC about it at the time did, but the media never gave a shit about that or that the majority of the protestors weren’t from or living in NYC.

Weird coincidence with current politics, that’s also the election that Cuomo became governor.

Hey, it’s better than voluntarily getting rid of something during a downsize and regretting it later (something I’ve done!).

Remember that the importance of those photos was in your love and memories of the people in them, not the actual pixels. That love and those memories are still there, even if the exact images are gone.

And ask yourself, are there any pictures on there that were so important my family members would have been angry at me about this? Because as painful as it is to lose something like that, they would almost certainly tell you they were just pictures and to not beat yourself up about it.

Be nice to yourself, especially if nobody else is.

I don’t have an answer, but that lil gay robot is all I think about now when I hear September by Earth, Wind & Fire.

The white area at the very bottom of the photo is the windowsill I think, it’s taken from inside looking out at the bird strike.

Jesus, it must have been a severe hit if the bird shit itself. This being on the side of a building and not a window is really curious, though! Usually you only see this on reflective surfaces that the bird thinks is open sky. I wonder if a predator was chasing it, for it to collide so strongly with the wall.

Edit: fuck, I’m dumb, there is a window there, it’s just facing a wall. Reminder that bird window stickers exist!

If there’s supposed to be an article link it’s not showing up for me, so here’s a link: https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/pressreleases/update-on-developments-in-iran-4

Absolutely me irl

Psst: the deranged focus on deporting every single undocumented immigrant actually makes it easier for employers to exploit undocumented immigrants. You can’t threaten to deport someone for organizing labor if the government is only deporting criminals.

Good on The Guardian for showing the Confederate flag as a symbol of white supremacy, and next to the word ‘neo-Nazi.’ US media often shies away from acknowledging it, because so many people in the south get extremely offended if you point this out.

This is terrifying looking, just activates every part of my hind brain.

Is this Richard Scarry? Reminds me a lot of that style.
