  • Cat owners should learn the Feline Grimace Scale. It’s a way for vets to get a rough measure of how much pain a cat is in:

    I mention this because the kitten on the right would probably score a 3 or a 4, which is right on the threshold for when a vet would consider administering painkillers and/or looking into the causes more closely. Certain shampoos can be extremely harmful to cats. Since cats lick themselves clean, they’ll ingest anything you put on their fur. Including shampoos or hair products. And there are countless examples of cats going into organ failure, seizing, vomiting/shitting all over the house, etc after being bathed with harmful “pet safe” products… Just because the product is safe for their skin doesn’t mean it’s safe for them to ingest.

    Also, oddly enough, this obviously AI article was one of the top results when I searched for shampoo toxicity in cats. I’m only linking it because the article is a fucking wild read, which only gets wilder as the AI hallucinates more and more.




  • You don’t typically shoot up meth or cocaine. Coke is usually snorted, meth is usually snorted or smoked, crack is usually smoked. Heroin is the only one that is typically shot up.

    You can shoot up meth and coke, but it’s not the go-to method since it’s harder (and needles can be difficult to source). It’s usually only used by the hardest users, because they’ve become too tolerant for other methods to get them high.


  • We actually know that documents were photocopied, because many of the documents he had were obviously photocopied. Classified documents have a colored border that goes all the way to the edge of the paper:

    But the vast majority of photocopiers can’t print to the edge of the paper, (it requires specialized printers which aren’t commercially viable except in specialized print shops), which means photocopies of classified documents don’t have that solid colored edge. Photocopies have a thin white edge where the non-printable area is. And many of his documents had that white edge, which meant they were photocopies and the originals were missing.


  • iOS automatically detects certain key words/phrases, and does animations. Or you can just hold down the Send button to trigger it (and a variety of other effects) manually. This person went out of their way to intentionally trigger the confetti with the “I think we should see other people” message, by holding Send and then selecting the confetti option.











  • Yeah, the game is designed in a way where your first encounter with a Reaper is probably going to be when you’re in a Seamoth. And you probably won’t have the electric shock module to shake the reaper off. It’s the best combo of “let the player potentially escape the attack” and “make the player feel completely powerless to fight back.” It’s also a great reminder that there is always a bigger fish, because the player usually feels pretty confident with cruising around after they build their first Seamoth.


  • ”It had to be me, someone else might have gotten it wrong”

    This is even worse if you take the Renegade action, which tries to stop him from going up the tower to launch the cure. Shepard whips out a heavy pistol and shoots him as he’s getting into the elevator. He dies before ever being able to trigger the launch. But Shepard doesn’t just whip out any pistol. Shepard doesn’t even whip out the pistol you currently have equipped. No, that wouldn’t have enough symbolism…

    Shepard specifically uses the M-6 Carnifex Hand Cannon. If you think back to when you first met him on Omega, he was the one who originally gave Shepard that gun.




  • Easier said than done, if your end users run Chrome. Because Chrome will automatically block your site if you’re on double secret probation.

    The phishing flag usually happens because you have the Username, Password, Log In, and SSO button all on the same screen. Google wants you to have the Username field, the Log In button, and any SSO stuff on one page. Then if you input a username and go to start a password login, Google expects the SSO to disappear and be replaced by the vanilla Log In button. If you simply have all of the fields and buttons on one page, Google flags it as a phishing attempt. Like I guess they expect you to try and steal users’ Google passwords if you have a password field on the same page as a “Sign in with Google” button.
