I think you need to try and figure out why they're eating the plants.

Are they indoor cats? If so try growing some cat grass for them (any pet supplier should have some), I would imagine they would choose that over a cactus any day!
If they don't though - it might be worth asking your vet since that really isn't healthy behaviour.

If they do go outdoors, I would suspect it isn't that they're missing anything but that something is stressing them out, are the plants all in the same area or by windows? There might be something outside making them act strange (I think it's more likely they would spray if it was this, but it's worth considering).

Good luck!

I would unironically have "what what in the butt" as my doorbell and lmao if anyone ever rang it (I don't get a lot of visitors, and if I do they don't ring the bell, so it would, at the very least, reduce some anxiety of a stranger ringing the bell as I hide and wait for them to leave 😂)

Joe’s Apartment

being niche makes me feel old..
I'll occasionally catch myself singing "welcome to Joe's toilet, plop plop plop, ahh ahh ahhh.."😂
looks like the full movie is on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49Z7fSRrn2Q

Woo hoo, it wasn't just me! 😂
(for years I wondered if I'd imagined it because no one else ever knew what I was talking about..)

Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

Lead singer fucked raped babies.

Same. Guy gives me the creeps. As do far too many others from Jack Nicholson to James Franco (not sure why those came to mind first, and I was going to continue listing, but honestly there are just too many, some, like Russel Brand it was obvious way before any public allegations were made, so there are those as well, where we're just waiting for the other shoe to drop. There are also those who I can't stand seeing/hearing because they're bigots, so I really could be here all day).

I'm not claiming any purity by the way, there are far too many to flat out avoid them all, but some simply make my skin crawl more than others, and I just don't need to consume something that makes me feel that way. ¯*(ツ)*/¯

You mean the distinction between engaging in consensual intercourse (aka "fucking") vs committing a heinous crime?

If you think pointing out that babies can only be raped, is the problem, not saying he "fucked" them, this is a you problem...

DessertStorms, (edited )
@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

I'm making the point that babies cannot be fucked, only raped, which obviously isn't "inherent" to the person who said "he fucked babies" which minimises the reality of the "scenario" as you call it (more minimisation, why do you do that? To preserve your own comfort of course!). Words matter, and if you think pointing that out is "splitting hairs" (when you're literally the only one making a load of fuss over this valid distinction), then again, you're the one with the problem here (and taking issue with someone pointed out that babies can only be raped, not "fucked" is definitely a problem that needs addressing, like seriously - imagine being the person dying on the hill to defend the use of "fucked" to describe baby rape.. 🤦‍♀️).

So.. You're still judging her harshly, despite finding out you were wrong (and decades behind everyone else, which takes some intentional avoidance of the topic, and clearly without taking in to consideration the impact people, well, like you, had on her mental health).

First mention of Christmas on the 22nd of December, can't even imagine that happening today..

Or....

We could kill the people who are not only directly responsible for, but who are actively refusing to stop the climate collapse because they want to keep making money and lording over us all from their super yachts (after giving them the opportunity to surrender their wealth for redistribution and stop their exploitation of course, which they will refuse), and actually have a realistic chance of stopping it.

Lmmfao, yeah good luck with that.. (hint: the people who own those companies also own the government who makes the laws, there is no reforming capitalism, it's designed that way)

The cat is grooming their "chest".

DessertStorms, (edited )
@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

I mean, if the people doing them are also licking their chest hair they might.. 😂 (seriously - I have no idea, maybe? Who knows.. And yeah, it is another cat at the end, looks like they might have lost a bit of their tail)

I get where you're coming from, but you're not making the point you think you're making - even on the NHS you'd probably have to go private for that, unless you're on benefits in which case the NHS dentist has to see you, but will make you wait months and months for an appointment with their one burnt out NHS dentist who will do their best within their limits because they're only allowed to do the bare minimum on NHS patients (edit just to clarify: this isn't how it always was, and not "intentional" that people can't see an NHS dentist, there just aren't any, a result of dire underfunding and basically privatisation).

Yes, social healthcare is amazing and worth fighting for, but social healthcare under capitalism will still always favour profit over people, and the results are clear to see, which is why the only viable long term solution is to abolish capitalism, not fight for the stale crumbs it's willing to give.

Good, might stop the creepy fuckers watching it in parliament..
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/neil-parish-banged-up-tractor-porn-b2439583.html (I also remember and was going to link an earlier and unrelated report that was done about MPs watching porn in parliament, but that one story has drowned out all other results and it's too early for me to dig deeper)

In all seriousness, this is obviously a terrible idea for many reasons.

I really wish the ableist community names thing would stop..

Many lists of alternatives exist online, here's one, and another, finding another word shouldn't be hard.

(Oh, and edit to add: it isn't about offense )

I'm starting to feel like there's not much choice

wait until you hear about renting (for those of us who really don't have a choice) - you get to be a wage slave and at the mercy of a greedy landlord..

This has made me realise that probably the only thing that costs me the same now as it did last year, is my weed. 💚
