Spat, or play? We are introducing 3 y/o female Bella (the calico) and 2 y/o female resident Suzie. They are able to eat around each other, they will sniff noses to greet, eachother, but often when
  • To start, I am not an expert, just a single 30 year old woman who has had cats for a long time (wait, does that make me an expert??), so this is just my two cents.

    I wouldn't call that a full on spat, tho it may have escalated if you hadn't intervened so it's hard to say, but overall I wouldn't worry too much about that specific interaction. My two occasionally get in worse disagreements, often because Hashi is a gremlin (who I love, but fr he has a lot of vinegar) and has a strong inclination to intrude on Ripley's space. Despite Ripley having to occasionally tell Hashi to fuck off, they still get along great like, 97% of the time.

    Just reading body language, neither seemed to be too stressed out or upset. I feel like the feeding set up is a great way to give them positive associations with each other while ensuring they both have the ability to retreat if they want to. You could also take one of your resident cat's beds or favorite blankets and place it in the foster's space, ane vice versa, so that they can smell/investigate and get used to the other cat without actually being near each other. This plus time is the way I have introduced new cats to resident cats. The time will depend on how social- or not- either cat is, but more often than not they will acclimate eventually.

    They are both adorable, btw 😍

  • ID help? Some kind of polypore? eastern WA, USA
  • I noticed, very cool website, will def bookmark it for future use!

    For this one, I am thinking it might not be T.versi, but maybe something in Trametes? Some of my answers to the questions on the site don't quite match up;

    1. It has a true pore surface (match)

    2. Pores are pretty easily visible and large, also at places quite angular (not match)

    3. Fuzzy/velvety cap (match)

    4. Fresh caps are quite bright creamy white (not match)

    5. Cap does have pretty distinct color zones (match)

    6. This one is a little hard for me to determine since idk what is considered rigid vs flexible, I am not a very experienced forager and don't have a super vast depth of experience to compare to. I can pretty easily wiggle on the caps and they didn't snap off the stump, so to me they seem pretty thin and flexible? But maybe it's because the cap is still young and supple? (Unsure)

  • I was thinking it looked turkey-tail-esque! Interesting!

    It's growing at the base of a viburnum, though I don't know what specific species in that genus.

  • TBH I think I prefer the Fediverse chick, she's nicer lol
  • Saw UniversalMonk being an ass one day, made this, and alllllllmost posted it, but for some reason didn't. I figure this is a good place for it C:

  • I feel like I am the only person who CAN'T see the counter clockwise spin. Have tried all the tricks people suggest to make the spin reverse, still only clockwise. I feel robbed by my own brain. I WANNA SEE THE COOL SHIT, BRAIN, JUST LET ME SEE HER SPIN THE OTHER WAY (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

  • Jfc that thumbnail of Huffman's face triggered me. How did he manage to make his face look MORE punchable??

  • I brushed my dog tonight, also meet my new dog
  • Fr, haha, thankfully he is a very patient boy! Only part he hates is his back legs (I call those his pants), I swear that hair is specially designed to dread together

  • I brushed my dog tonight, also meet my new dog
  • No kidding, they must be related.

  • I brushed my dog tonight, also meet my new dog
  • Hahaha, I was wondering if it might trick him when he got back in (I let him outside when we were done), but he walked right through it to lay down on his bed 😆

  • I can see your point of view. Idk if you would consider this the same, but in this vein I really appreciated that Chappel Roan used her Grammy win as an opportunity to talk about the exploitative nature of the music industry, especially in the cases of smaller indie musicians.

    But even tho Kendrick didn't use his platform in a similar way, I still really enjoyed him roasting Drake again. Idk man, everything in the US sucks rn and it was nice to genuinely laugh yesterday

  • Also not a sports fan, but a family member told me I had to watch the halftime performance and I'm glad they told me, lol

    Drake didn't really do anything (besides his base level of being a pedo creep), Kendrick just used the platform to roast him again. It was beautiful.
