The cat is staring at the wall. Specifically little drops of water on the wall. Why are there drops of water on the wall? She doesn't like her new water bowl and swatted the water hard enough to splatter it.

Why does she have new bowls? Because the cute stainless bowl in a cheetah print base got removed and stowed under the bed today.

@steter Thanks for answering. I think the non-cone wearing one earned a little payback.

I ordered a spare cone because trying to clean it just wasn't working well. So I do have two of them and intend to use them if things don't improve. I was hoping to keep them off but had forgotten how much they tussle.

The cone wearing one has been so depressed. I am actually so happy to see her playing. And finally I am not coming at them to hunt down spots to treat. I think generally I am relieved too. Vacuuming, bleaching, washing everything everyday is starting to get exhausting.

I am down to only hard plastic toys for them that can easily be cleaned. She is really having a ball. Like literally. I took out the carpet cat tower and took a metal plant stand and covered the shelves as a temporary tower.

Cat peeps.
One cat has been in a cone post ringworm diagnosis. The PCR test came back positive and he moved to the oral antifungal that starts with the letter I. Waited to try the oral hoping to take care of it topically.

But yesterday the other cat had fungus present. There was a larger patch that didn't glow because the broken hairs had not fallen out.

A different vet said treat both with oral. Stop trying the topical because it is likely in other spots and hidden. She only said I needed a cone if they were scratching. I did tell her I would have to keep them together.

Well. Technically they are not scratching their areas.

But these two are crazy wrestling each other. It's funny how 2 weeks in a cone let me forget how crazy they are. I don't see this as different than scratching.

Should I put a cone on anyways? They are both getting oral antifungal but just started. Or does it really matter since it kept having spots show up in different spots with the cone on.

I thought the whales were a nod to McAfee.

Disclaimer, not a Dr and not giving medical advice. Just looking at your situation as if it were me experiencing it.

I saw someone do this on a flight and I don't know if it is safe so search first, but they held a tissue in a cup with a bit of hot water sealed to the ear so steam went in and it popped.

Actually let me look. So I see it is a thing on tik Tok. I saw it on a flight and I see some articles about it but I don't know if it would help you or not. I did find this article which has some ideas of things that might help.

@3goodthings

1. Got my solar back online and saved several thousand dollars doing so.

2. My husband decided this was going to be a special weekend for me so he has been doing whatever I ask without complaints or arguments.

3. I chose going to massage together and we had a nice and long massage.

I made a comment here about a stupid GE created ad in their app which I assume was done with AI and I posted a screenshot.

I also notified the company they had a stupid ad and maybe humans were still valuable. They asked me to point it out for them but I don't work for free so I didn't respond.

Now it is fixed.

@ChrisHolladay
Question if you don't mind. Today I stepped on a little metal piece that looks like a rivet that was on the wire or perhaps the part. Before I open it again, is it possible this loss of the river is causing the non start? I am attaching a picture because I am not clear on the vocabulary.

How do I separate wiring from thermostat without screws? In order to replace so hooking back up is needed.

@4d3fect
I just got it. Had to screw it back in to get enough resistance to pull it off. Ty so much.

@4d3fect
Well. I was able to get the parts replaced but multimeter testing suggested the parts I pulled were in fact working.

I have an LG with smart diagnosis. When it first failed two weeks ago the code was for a thermistor. I order and replaced that and it still didn't work. Updated diagnosis said thermostat. So since I was tearing it down again I replaced several components and did a thorough cleaning.

My husband found on Reddit that my problem is probably the controller but that replacement of the parts I already did is the correct step. The primary controller non OEM cheapest price I could find before tax and shipping is $211. LG is offering me a flat rate repair that includes parts for about $350.

I really don't know what to do now. New machine or what.

@skinnylatte
That's so cool. The craziest image I have seen from a whale photographer was directly into its eye.

@NanoRaptor
Don't quit a job without a new one lined up.

@hellomiakoda
Thanks. Now I understand.

I can't believe you made this nice post on the day I was looking up a vpn and took time to explain it to me.

@hellomiakoda

So if I subscribe to duck duck go vpn my device is directly connected to duck duck go servers. If I browse from there does it go back to duck duck go or am I still exposed? I don't do anything I need to worry about unless speaking out against government officials ever turns into a crime.

My daughter and my daughter in law both got their dream job in the last 30 minutes.

And my fur baby is getting her stitches out so not sure if she gets to stop the cone.

I said this about Elon but perhaps Trump should consider.

He has everything he needs.

He could tax all the wealthy guys and give every American healthcare, home, a basic income, and fund everything. He loves to spend other people's money. If he said it the Republicans would have to agree as would the Democrats. Instead of private prisons they could open apartments and provide basics. Bring back the immigrants and give them a path. He doesn't really care about drugs and the other crap. Being a criminal has a limit too on what crimes are left to commit?

I want the world promised to us in "The Jetson's" not Dr Strange love.

I have weighed this question with my 50 year old sibling. I am unable to see any benefit in telling him. If he were to express an emotion or curiosity such as why he doesn't have friends then I think I would. I am assuming in that situation he would be seeking answers. At this point he is blissfully unaware so there doesn't seem to be a point. But I am his older sibling. If there was value to me in telling him because as a sibling I like to poke once in a while I might. (Not mean, just normal sibling teasing situation.)
