My nearly 20lb Turkish Van, Coco, trying to blend into the clover and mint.

I probably should mow my lawn.

{edit]: ~~that's not a bun. My life has been a lie.~~ Is it? IDEK anymore.

Says HI!!

Seriously, that's his "Hi" face. It weirds the other cats out.

OK technically only one bun in the photo.

This reproduction piece of minitruckin history could be yours. New in box. Free! Just pay shipping (probably 60ish in the conus) or send me a shipping label so I don't have to throw this away.

Sorry for the blurry photo. I had a leash in both hands.

No buns were harmed. Or even startled too bad.

Anyone interested should definitely contact Stitt to let him know we support HB1425 so that our children will have the choice to attend the Hellion Academy of Independent Learning and receive proper school credits.

The Satanic Temple is once again announcing plans for the Sooner State after a bill was sent to the governor’s desk which could allow students to receive class credits for religious and moral instruction off school campuses.

House Bill 1425 would force school districts to adopt a policy which allows students to go off-campus to attend a religious or moral instruction course taught by an independent entity. The student would be allowed to miss up to three class periods per week to attend such a course.

Instructors of these courses would not need to be licensed or certified teachers.

...

In response to the bill being one step away from becoming the state’s newest law, The Satanic Temple is highlighting their own learning academy that Oklahoma students could use to possibly earn school credit.

In a post on social media, the religious group stated their Hellion Academy of Independent Learning (HAIL) could soon be available for Oklahoma students.

“The Satanic Temple believes that public schools should be free from religious influence,” the post said. “We are, however, prepared to ensure our members’ children receive the same opportunities as those participating in other religion’s programs. By not vetoing HB 1425, Governor Stitt will allow the state to grant elective credit for religious and morality classes taught by The Satanic Temple, making it possible for parents to invite TST’s HAIL program to their local public schools as soon as this fall.”

"Mowin' the yard." Get it? Ba dum tss

We're about a month post FHO hip surgery. Finally getting to leave the cat jail and stretch the legs a bit. Also day 2 of harness training so there's a lot of laying down in protest. Poor guy's had some rough luck but he's getting back to his normal self.

I tried to warn him, the US Postal Inspection Service does not mess around!

Week 3 of confinement after FHO hip surgery and we're already at the "throwing feces through the cell bars" stage. I'm afraid he may be institutionalized. All in all tho he's been a very good sport for someone that was a street cat 6 months ago. One more week to go and we'll be able to get out and take some less depressing photos.

Side note: He loves the freeze dried chicken hearts from Chewy. But I was not prepared for the morbidness (if you need to break them in half; just, don't look).

My mouse won't stop constantly scrolling and a replacement is a couple days away. How can I temporarily disable the scroll wheel? All the instructions I can find deal with xorg or xinput which I do not have. I can't find any scroll wheel setting in either settings or piper.

Optionally just being able to disable it in firefox would save my sanity.

Thanks for any help.
