resident dipshit @collinvandyck.bsky.social · 01/02/2026this was the most surprising part of it. the worst part of a litterbox was having to declare bankruptcy and change out the whole thing. so far, after a few weeks, i've not had to do it. you just have to replace the small bag at the base that collects the used litter clumps. 100
resident dipshit @collinvandyck.bsky.social · 01/02/2026it's not just the lack of scooping, but also that there's no need to "change out" the litter as far as i can tell. because it automatically cycles after each use, the litter remains pretty clean at all times. you of course need to occasionally add a little bit of litter to keep it at levels. 100
resident dipshit @collinvandyck.bsky.social · 01/02/2026if you're on the fence about getting a robot litterbox, do it. it's lifechanging. there's close to zero maintenance compared to what i was doing to keep my apartment clean and smelling nice. 200

resident dipshit @collinvandyck.bsky.social · 03/12/2025listening to chicago leads to some difficult thoughts. chicago is allright. everything is tight, and it's good in the way that a bunch of studio musicians might jam together after having met an hour beforehand. peter cetera though is s-tier shit and takes the band as high as it can realistically go. 101
