What you gotta do is get a medium-sized cat toy. Something with a bit of heft to it.
Then, when the item gets delivered, discard the toy because the cat would rather sit in the box it shipped in.
It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.

@Organichu I'm reading James Patterson's book The Paris Detective and it's actually hilarious. It's like if we teamed up to write a gratuitous crime novel starring a rakish French cop in NYC that namedrops every posh Manhattan boutique and calls every woman très belle. It's fucking absurd and I'm laughing at every page, although I don't think I'm supposed to be

it depends on a couple of things out of my control but hopefully i can steer it in the right direction.

Y'all, I gotta take a minute to single out Hahns for a ridiculously good game last night of Star Trek: Adventures
We had a full crew minus our captain, so we had our Ferengi Science Officer Garpax, our Ship's holographic counselor Ellen, our Tactical officer Jim (a Jem'Hadar), and me, Path, our Bajoran pilot and security chief.
Well Ellen, who is a holonovel writer on the side, gets invited to a grand convention for famous holonovelists, and we're off to DEEP SPACE FUCKING NINE!
We get there, hang out at Quark's for a bit, and find out the keynote speaker at the convention has passed, and set up an elaborate series of games for us to play instead, with her favorite holosuite novels.
Our crew then goes through Lawrence of Arabia, Sherlock Holmes vs Jack The Ripper (ft. Frankenstein's Monster), Bullets over Broadway, and Fast and the Furious 14: Tokyo Drift 2.
Lawrence:
- Garpax was immediately not having this shit, as a scientist, and opened a comm port on the holosuite, to find out what the holonovel was about, and get the clues early
- We bet on the three fastest camels likely to win the camel race, and the least likely to win, just in case (we had four bets)
- midway through the race, we're attacked by Assassin's creed enemies, Jim manages to take down three of them, I take down one
- Garpax uses his determination and TAKES OVER ONE OF THE CAMELS, TO RIDE IT TO THE FINISH LINE and WIN!
- He comes back with the camel and some spares, and we ride off, they're transformed into horses and we're in Victorian England
Sherlock:
- so I have counter surveillance, which made it somewhat easy to track Jack from the path of his latest victim.
- We quickly run into the sewers after finding a body of a prostitute that had her liver removed
- Garpax is like "nope, not going in a sewer", I'll keep lookout. He then gets to meet Sherlock and Watson
- We find Jack the ripper. I had a pistol from our last holodeck, Ripper charges us, and I just shoot him in the head Indiana Jones style.
- Jim then ONE PUNCH MANS frankensteins monster, with three fucking critical hits, I shit you not. Boom.
Bullets over Broadway
- Garpax dons a Leftshark costume because he doesn't understand Sharks and Jets from West side story, gets hooked offstage like a vaudville act
- from there, he produces a giant telescope from the previous holonovel, sees a sniper in the stands, and shoots him with the rifle from a previous holonovel (Jim had a rifle from Lawrence, I had a pistol)
- Would be mob assassin dies, but the crowd is unruly and we need to calm them
- I use MY POINT OF DETERMINATION, and my acting focus, to belt a few bars of "How do you solve a problem like Maria?" because I'm an idiot and forgot the musicals irl, the crowd laughs, and I vaudville drag the corpse of the assassin off stage.
- We then get into a big car chase with the mob, and save Sondheim.
F&F14:TD2
- Control plus Conn check, small craft piloting, and extra momentum.
- Ellen hit the NOS button, we won
So we win, we're the victors, we end up in this room with fucking Countess Regina Bartholomew herself! Significant other of AI Moriarty himself! Apparently this was all a ruse for him to escape on a shuttle.
Elen gives the Countess her holographic projector belt, then Garpax finds another holosuite data port, and we send Ellen to the shuttle, where MORIARTY is waiting!
Little did he know, Ellen actually has a counter espionage program she created for work on our station, and Moriarty got got! Back in the box for him.
Moriarty is (presumably) in Federation storage, but he and the Countess will attend regular counseling sessions with our AI counselor to try and bring them back into the fold.
Also Hahns gave us the DS9 opening music for the game this time.
Seriously I cannot tell you how much fun that was man. Hands down in the top three adventures you've run, up there with isolinear bombs and Romulan agents.
are YOU on the beer list?

I think my cat would love a very durable, possibly fabric, battery powered object than can quickly and randomly roll around the floor with enough force to bounce around a bit. It should be tennis ball sized.
No idea if they make such a thing.

apparently the reason people do this on Twitter is to avoid having their posts searched and brigaded, which i can grudgingly accept as a valid reason
except for the fact they all use the same very clever totally not who i'm talking about names, which seems to defeat the purpose
chat gpt write me an essay about how the use of nicknames for real world villains creates an additional layer of abstraction between a villain and their acts of evil -- thus further perpetuating the villain's agency and broad effect on the world

It's also making fun of someone for their ethnic sounding name which, I get the similar current concern trolling over Tate's tiny dick, but the name thing hits me in a place the dick thing doesn't (many people are saying)

I don't think it's quite so much a critique as that the type of people it's usually aimed at (e.g. trump, musk) attract it because they're so ostentatiously thin skinned that there's a tiny visceral thrill in knowing that the act annoys them
It's like making a point of mentioning the time he fucked a pig's head when talking about David Cameron, or that people were in Epstein's black book, even though these things are generally already widely known

But then fingerboards became popular and I could totally do a few tricks with those.
What's a good cat toy that can be played with both with and without my assistance?
I found a good toy in balls covered in yarn but the yarn would unravel and that made a big mess quick.
since then i got Sprite some smaller, bouncier felt balls and she had no interest in them.
She fucking loves the fishing rod but that isn't something i can play with her while i'm working.
She also looooooves to play with wrappers that she fishes out of the trash.
She used to love playing fetch also.. Maybe some sort of like hacky sack type toy? easy to grab for her and retrieve?
Check out my site, the Bismuth Heart | My Twitter
Then, when the item gets delivered, discard the toy because the cat would rather sit in the box it shipped in.

There are fishing rods designed to be hung over doors, so they're always dangling
Although Talisker just jumped onto the top of the door and bit the cord off at the source, so it depends whether Sprite likes to chew string or not
