Up until today, the cat ignored most indications that he should get off the kitchen counter but would sprint out of the room as soon as he saw me pick up the spray bottle.
Today he laid down and looked directly at me while I repeatedly sprayed him to no effect. He is winning the battle of wills.

I love living with cats. You walk into a room and there's a funny little guy standing there.
He's not actually supposed to be up on the countertop, but still... pretty cute.

💭 wait, does thumbs up mean "yeah, go ahead" or "don't kill that guy, he's cool"?
Everybody's looking at me I can't think right now
I've hesitated too long and now it's awkward
Maybe if I raise my sword like I'm about to swing, I can figure it out from their reaction. I can play it off like a joke

I should should make my own Terrence Malick's Avatar by editing out the action and all of Jake Sully's dialogue, then adding a voiceover.

"Hey chuds, why aren't you using all those guns you stockpiled while the left unilaterally disarmed? Aren't those for fighting this government that's totally controlled by your ideological allies? Weren't you afraid you'd be violently oppressed if you couldn't fight back? God, you look so stupid rn"

If public opinion polling is thoroughly broken, special interest groups become a little more powerful because a legible voting block making demands is the only way to really know how many voters you're pandering to.

It really undermines my authority when I'm telling the cat he can't do something and then he does it too fast for me to stop him

That game everyone keeps recommending to you is free today. Alternately funny and sad, it's the best world building I've ever experienced. No fast reflexes required, just an elaborate branching storyline with great dialogue.

In this sci-fi book Neal Stephenson has twice described the rotating habitats on this space ship as passing by "at about the speed of a second hand on a clock" which is such a funny description because it FEELS like you understand even though the characters are on the perimeter of the structure.

It's unsafe to use my radiators because boxes of stuff I've packed for the move are pushed up against them. But it's cold in my apartment so I turn on the oven. Now the appliance I use as a clock says 400
I'm hungry what time is it?
400
There's no sun, what time is it?
400
It is always 400 here now

Sometimes the pharmacy texts to say they auto-filled my prescription. Other times they send me a reminder that I need to log in and trigger a refill. This is the second time I've failed to read carefully before driving to the pharmacy.
