I've recently encountered a cat rescue that rehomes their feral cats without giving them their rabies vaccines and NOT disclosing this. Ask me how I know and am 11 needles deep....they asked me to lie to public health and maintain that rabies isn't actually necessary and I wasn't really put at risk (?!)

It's fucking ludicrous and public health barely responded.

I am all for saving and rehoming ferals but holy hell VACCINATE AGAINST RABIES. The reason it's not as prevalent is BECAUSE OF THE VACCINES.

I just finished Tatouine by Jean-Christophe Réhel.

I LOVED this book. It was written from the first person POV and tons of pop culture references but I was really sucked in and enjoyed the read.

I had an insulin resistant horse. That was a huge management challenge. I was fortunate enough to have her at home, I don't know how I would have managed it if she was boarded out and I had to rely on another to ensure she got her meds/no access to sugar, etc.

It's pretty niche and it's not "a little more"..more like double...but as an equestrian I will always go big name for a saddle. Spent too many years compromising and there is SUCH a significant difference that I will never go sub $2000 for a new saddle.

I showed it to my fiance and while I ADORED the rewatch he was very meh and I was questioning him as a person. Then one day he asked me to watch it again so he could watch Andre the Giant again. And then, I'm convinced, it spoke to him and showed him the magic. He loved it. Quoted it. And will watch it with me when I have it on.

I really think mindset and willingness to dive into it is a necessity.

God, what a beautiful movie.

Listening to the Mothman episodes of Last Podcast on the Left made me pretty scared of West Virginia.

I have joined a few similar ones and try to be active but there's very little to work with. But fair suggestion. I'm just a consumer more than a creator 🤷‍♀️ my activity on Lemmy FAR surpasses my activity on Reddit, however. Trying to do my bit.

 
 

Who's going? How's it been?

 

Really loving this show.

 

Long time King reader and trying to check all his works off the list eventually, but I have been veering away lately for some lighter reads. I always seem to get called back, though.

Picked up Rose Madder and I had no idea what it was about. I'm about halfway through, and while it's SO different than what I expected, I am equally horrified and have such a sense of dread.

There is no other author I've read that elicits such a visceral reaction from me and leaves me feeling so uncomfy in a good way.

I recently read 1408 and it was my favorite story in a long time. Rose Madder definitely gives me similar vibes.
