You do not have to be Jewish to apply.

I just recently had some awful DM harassment from a transphobic idiot who told me that I was pretending to be trans. It was dealt with but I'm still left wondering. Why do some people believe that we would pretend to be trans? What do they think someone would gain by "pretending" to be trans. It just seems so stupid because I've dealt with so much oppression and people invalidating me my whole life, and yet they still think I'm pretending to be trans for some some reason...? Why? What the fuck does someone gain from pretending to be trans? This makes no fucking sense whatsoever.

Sorry for this rant, I really needed to get this off my chest.

Our cat Wally tolerates being swaddled in a blanket

Construction crews have been replacing the lead pipes to every home the past month, so they spent all day watching the crew work outside

Just went through some work stress, gender dysphoria crisis (transitioning is soo scary with a right-wing family x.x) and autism struggles today... currently listening to this smooth jazz song and having a beer to calm down

On a positive note: I installed Fedora on my little Optiplex today and I'm currently backing up my photo memories from the past twelve years from iCloud to leave yet another tech conglomerate :)

How has your day been?

I have no idea what the "got funny?" thingy in the corner btw

Hey Lemmy! Pick your brains?

Have got three cats that need feeding - from LR, Madeline, Stephanie and Tuxie. I've always tried to buy cat food which isn't owned by companies who are complete bastards, which is tricky since Nestle own so many of them. They've been on the Royal Canin for many years, but I see that's owned by Mars and I'm trying to cut back on "buying American" at the moment. Was wondering if any of you have reasonable suggestions for alternatives?

• available in the UK

• not manufactured in companies descending into fascism

• certainly not manufactured by bloody Nestle, cut all of their shit out of my life a long time ago

• ideally, low carbon and ethically made? I realise that's a really tough ask for cat food.

They're adult cats with no special needs, and also extremely unfussy eaters.
