I’m scared of the day Amazon realises they actually do have more power than the government.

You don’t think we should blame the one person who made up the lie and sparked racist riots across the country?

What was the strategy?

This guy (Tim) did it from kittenhood, so he doesn’t mind at all. Our last cat (Dharma) took a bit of convincing, and trying different styles of harness.

Cat, cup of coffee. Sometimes phone if I remember.

In the real world, it’s just going to suck until the market figures something out. Maybe it’ll be like cable, when you buy a car you also have to pay for a guy to come install it.

I was gonna say buying a house too. Mortgage payments are 1/3 what my rent was, and rents have doubled since then.

Oreo cookie? That’s a shit sandwich!
