My cat loves that FortiFlora! We are giving it to her because she has an e coli infection and we need to treat her with ABs for like 6 weeks.
It is the ONE thing my cat Oz won't eat. And he will eat rotten food from the compost. He wouldn't touch any kind of food that it was mixed with. When I have had to give it to him I had to empty out a supplement capsule and stuff the powder in it and pill him.
Have you all seen the fake nerd fight between Joss [link] and Ira Glass & Mike Birbiglia. [link] Adorable.
Almost as funny as the Cumberbatch vs Downton Abbey fan fight breaking out on tumblr.
I love the slow loris in goodstuff.
Can I just note that this week is the first time since I posted the bikers that I can see other reblogs and stuff on the dash. Literally, it's been full of Bikers Against Child Abuse every day until now.
I love that story and my heart might be a shriveled raisin...the funny part to me is that it was in my home newspaper but I didn't know till the internet found it.
It has over 45K notes now!
Oh, I have one for Good Stuff.
Denied an Olympic bronze medal through a surreal disqualification process, Canada’s men’s relay team is getting a replacement that may be more valuable.
After watching the devastating way the sprinters’ dreams were crushed in London, Elijah Porter felt compelled to lift their spirits.
So the 10-year-old wrote a letter that he hoped would “touch their hearts.” He then added the only medal he has ever won as a token of his unwavering support.
Aw!!
So my visitors are only in Maine, which means they'll likely camp somewhere in New Brunswick. Phew. That gives me more time to get ready. (Though all I have to do really is vacuum and clean the fridge.) Cleaning the fridge is kind of a monster job. It's why it still needs doing.
I wonder if anyone sent the South Korean fencer a medal. She was actually fucked over by The Man (she did refuse their offer of a consolation medal--they copped to it).
And I never really worked out how those teams were dicking with the system by throwing badminton matches. Were they just manipulating where they went in the draw? Because they didn't get eliminated just for losing? Am curious.
Randomly: I've been listening to David Rakoff interviews all week, and got the best tip from one of them! Put the leftover bits of coffee into the ice cube tray! I mean, I've known that coffee ice cubes are the way to go for iced coffee, but had never gotten it together to make them. But I always have a little bit of extra coffee in the pot, and THAT I can put in the freezer! Hooray, and thanks, David Rakoff, for one more thing that makes my life better.
