new research reports that cats vocalize more when greeting male owners. researchers suggest that this is because cats have apparently learned that men require additional explanation when provided with basic communication. I don't like the idea that cats are judging me this accurately.

The trouble with book tour is that I can't properly promote and shout about upcoming events when I'm on airplanes and running from one location to the next. Fun fun fun. But! Come see me tomorrow night in Redmond, WA for fun, and the kind of exhaustion that comes only from too much travel.

President Chancleta receives word that the war is going exactly according to his plan. he finds this extremely concerning, because he did not have a plan. he has been briefed on the situation and would like to know why nobody prevented the things he personally ordered.

Despite the fact that Pennsylvania has reported four deaths from measles, the CDC has decided to only include one in its tally, which is further proof that those in power have learned that it is difficult to end an outbreak, but is is quite easy to change what counts.

a company has created a cat feeder that uses AI to recognize individual cats and supposedly can refuse to let them steal food from their cat colleagues. needless to say, cat unions are outraged. a full boycott and energetic protests are already underway.

Two fluffy cats nap in separate woven baskets beside a glass door. A large orange-and-white cat sleeps in the foreground on a blanket, while a gray cat is curled up tightly in a smaller basket just behind him.
