When my cats cuddle me I start to groom them by detangling their fur, especially when i have had enough cuddling and kinda want to get up. I realized this is the same thing my cats do to each other. I have assimilated into cat culture 😭

PG&E is preemptively shutting off power for 4 days to some communities. I really don’t know how that’s sustainable for people. We have a gas generator and are currently unaffected, but burning gas to keep food from spoiling isn’t a long term fix either.

I need to know what they put in Churu and other lickable treats that makes it so addictive to cats. I have a sick kitty who is struggling to eat bc she can't smell, but she still inhales a lickable treat. I tried putting her food in the tube, but she knows it's not the same and only eats a little.

While there are no data sources on Long COVID in prison, experts suspect rates of the disease may be higher there than in the general population. They face high reinfection risks and poor access to medical care. Read more from @octoberk.bsky.social: thesicktimes.org/2026/09/29/i...

A graphic shows two images side by side. One are mobility devices, including many walkers, outside of prison cells. Another shows a red SARS-CoV-2 virus contrasted with a black background. The text reads, “The Sick Times. I interviewed five people with Long COVID in prison. They are invisible in the system. By October Krausch.

Meanwhile, her cellmate, Wayland Scott, says he has frequently had problems breathing after COVID-19, and gets winded going up the stairs he must take to get to his cell. Even so, he has not been able to receive an inhaler, despite having one before Long COVID when he first came to prison. “There was a year that they had a big shortage of the albuterol. And when that happened, I got taken off of my inhaler and I’ve never been able to get it back,” he said.

My cat's meds are $15/mo more due to tariffs, and they would be even higher if his pharmacy hadn't absorbed the majority of the increase. The medication he uses is also lifesaving for humans. There is no justification for arbitrarily increasing medication prices over and over again like this.

Starbucks Workers United has officially called for consumers to boycott Starbucks. They have 3 primary demands: Finalize a union contract, improved pay/stability, and for Starbucks to stop violating federal labor law. www.boycottstarbucks.net

• Starbucks must finalize a fair union contract with 12,000 local baristas and growing.
• Workers must be able to survive on a Starbucks paycheck.
That starts with a union contract that locks in better pay, better staffing, and enough hours to live on.
• Starbucks has to stop breaking the law.
They remain the biggest violator of U.S. labor law in modern history.
