If they’re spraying for insects I wouldn’t leave the cats anywhere in the apartment, closet or otherwise. The “smoke” should get everywhere.

Idk if/where you work but maybe explain the situation and see if you can bring the cat with you in a carrying case and then take them with you wherever you planned on going while you wait the rest of the day

And because almost 400 million other people didn’t even try.

I’m pretty torn on this to be honest.

On the one hand, propaganda is a hell of a drug especially if you’re already sympathetic to the ideas of one party or another. You want to be able to agree with them or you’re left realizing you have no options at all. It’s a similar thing to those on the left being “forced” to support Democrats even if they basically loath the current party. If not for them then they have absolutely nothing, no hope of any representation at all.

On the other hand, how many times can you be confronted with outrageous situations and such a large, essentially global, consensus that “your team” is just straight up wrong before you realize you’re supporting actual bad people? You’re making a choice to support people doing actual bad things, but again, based on the propaganda you might never believe bad things are actually bad, or are even really happening.

I’ve had many many arguments with my father and I’ve come to realize he absolutely will not accept information that is not what he already wanted to hear. Fox is good when it says “Trump good”, fox is bad when they say “Trump did something wrong.” I pleaded with him to at the very least stop watching the fox primetime peanut gallery where they lie with impunity, that he would be better served watching Fox journalists like (at the time) Shepard Smith. His response was “Smith is too opinionated, I prefer Hannity.” … Sean Fucking Hannity, the guy who’s show is literally an opinion show. He just wants confirmation bias. When a Republican committee release a document it’s gospel, when a Democrat lead committee release something it’s fake news lies.

I blame them collectively for supporting fascists, but I can’t really blame an individual human for being a stubborn ignorant human. It’s our nature to be thick headed. Some way more than others.

“No one is the villain of their own story.” My stubborness is that I choose to believe this quote is true. 99% of people believe they’re doing the right thing, it’s why we even have the cliche of “the road to hell is paved with good intentions.”

Extendo-day!

It’s not real. It’s just a day I take off after every holiday that makes a 3 day weekend so it becomes a 4 day weekend! Lol

“Oh, well, if you prefer, I can recognize handwriting, Yep, that’s handwriting, sure enough. Curly bits, spiky bits, all joined together. Yep. Handwriting. I’d recognize it anywhere.”

“Justice”

So if it’s possible then it’s possible for the government to have that done by people that are capable.

That would tell me then that it’s more than likely not a national security concern, it’s a profit concern. Apparently Zuckerberg was a major actor pushing for this ban as it is, he supposedly kept harping on the security aspect. :/

Anyone know if it’s possible to take a program and “decompile” it? Like reverse engineering or something so it could be verified to be “clean?”

I imagine with all the resources the government has they could achieve such a thing if they were really concerned about national security and not really just worried about metas profits.

I mean what would Elon buying it have really changed about the actual code of the apps? It would just change who gets the profits, no?
