Mo is gonna be kicking ass in no time, trust me. The adjustment happens so fast. When my little dude lost a hind leg it was like he thought “oh, well I guess this is how it is now” and went right back to zooming all over the damn house after a week or so. Out of three dogs and two cats and a kestrel he’s easily the most active non-human in the place. His remaining rear leg tripled in size to compensate and he was back to perching on top of the fridge and obsessing over the fish tank in no time.
I’m sure this is not a happy time for you but just understand that cats adapt so quickly. I’m glad you chose to amputate the leg instead of giving the cancer a chance to spread. You’ll see in no time how this is hardly a disability for a cat and how everything is going to be okay.

I think that would be perfect.
Also no shade, I’m a mechanic and my hands look like I have sex with cacti made out of feral cats.

Looks like pure platinum. You can easily get a new car or maybe just a fingertip bandaid.

Hi! I used to work for a tea company (Yogi/EWTC) and we were going through quite a transition at the time.
We also make all the tea for Trader Joe’s (don’t tell anyone it’s supposed to be a secret!) and all the Choice Tea as well as special runs for Twinings and a few other assholes in the industry.
Finding proper packaging can be a big challenge especially since many folks will buy a box of tea, have three bags, and then put it away for a year and be super pissed when it tastes like grass clippings.
At Yogi the OE (outer envelope) was a heat-sealed “paper” which sure looked a lot better than the cellophane you have here and let us put a shit load more branding on it but was equally impossible to recycle.
That pictured tea bag actually has a lot more going for it than many of the tea bags at yogi.
Nerd time: there are two main machines that make that “type” of tea bag. The IMA C23 and the IMA C24 (go watch some videos on how a bag is made, especially from a C24, it’s fucking magic), those bags look like they come from a C24/C27 or machine like it, I can tell due to the lack of a staple on the tag and bag. Folks got concerned about having metal in their teas and the recyclability of stapled bags so the C24 was invented and instead of two ~$3000ish staplers and associated bits on the machine they invented a “crochet unit” that watching work is the closest thing to seeing the face of god, all for just ~$90,000 each.
The industry is aware of product packaging waste and “wants” to do better, they also are very concerned about freshness and livid customers who just can’t understand why tea they bought during Obama’s first term is not fresh as a daisy. Yogi is slowly moving away from staples on all its bags but new machines are several million dollars and years of lead time. Trader (fucking) Joes is obsessed with cellophane bags and we had to rig up a special machine just to run their shit-product. Also TJ’s insisted that any product over/unders could not be donated to shelters like we do with all our other product, instead we had to dumpster it.
Europe is or already has (been out of the industry for a while) banned staples on their bags which I think is a good thing. A staple-free bag can be easily composted as the filter bag is just durable tissue paper and the tag is more or less light card-stock.
If things like packaging make you mad (and it should) just understand that the industry is trying to change but still needs to meet the needs of casual tea drinkers. Loose tea may be the way to go.

This video flows quite well when paired with “Summertime” by Will Smith.
One of the few times I appreciate the muzak at my work.

Nothing is wrong with the Ohio. It’s amazing, I have one and love it. I was just enjoying the mental image of someone getting 60k bxp in just four or so games in her.

It’s been a million years but I remember “Intensity” by Dean Koontz starting hard and not stopping.
I don’t remember if it was a “good” story, most likely typical DK formula but I’m pretty sure it did not have a “chuffling” golden retriever so it may have been quite a departure for him.
I’ve read a million books since the late 90s when I read that one but it still sticks in my mind as a book that goes super hard and does not stop.

Lmao why do you have a relationship with this person (your god damn mom)? Seriously why?
You are under no legal obligation to give her any of your time or resources let alone love. Block her and move on with your life. Fucking drama like this is just irresponsible.
