🐾 Stray Kitten Report 10
The terrace is now the cat family's headquarters. They sleep there, play there, eat there, and so on. One night I caught the black cat dad playing with the two kittens, and it melted my heart (video attached). Good news too: Charlotte slept indoors for the first time! She's still afraid of our hands, but it's another small, noticeable step in the right direction. Also, our first vet appointment is at the end of the month.

Since it became obvious that Democrats were going to do very well in the November elections, U.S. gas prices began plummeting. The trend has only continued since they did.
They were around $3.00 when Trump came into office.

I wonder what people are going to do when the strategic reserves fail and we suddenly feel the 30% reduction in crude supply the still-closed Hormuz represents.

✨ A Little (About) Joy ✨
In 2024, my local art council invited me to have a solo gallery show! I displayed my cat and capybara work and had a lovely opening. It felt so surreal seeing my art on the walls!
Have you ever seen your hard work out in the world?

this is me tbh, but the attraction isnt that strong and i really like women so its very easy to just never even try dating men. as for why… idk i guess ive just never really been comfortable around them. its not like i had a specific personal experience, just being around them and seeing how they treat women and trying to fit in with them (against my will) kinda soured my opinion of them over time. i used to think i was one of them, which let me give them the benefit of the doubt since i thought they might be a little bit like me, but now i know theyre really not like me at all so thats way harder. theyre even more of a risk since i started transitioning so idk if ill ever really feel comfortable acting on my attraction.

Planning my illustrations for #FolktaleWeek26 and looking to my portfolio for inspiration I find many illustrated fairytales and myths which fit the 6th prompt: shapeshifter!
In Celtic, Norse, Faroese and Icelandic mythology, selkies (also spelled silkies, sylkies, selchies) or selkie folk meaning ‘seal folk’ can change from seal to human form by shedding their skin.
Mélusine is the legendary half-fairy ancestor of the House of Lusignan and royals including the Plantagenets, whose lower 🧵1/

One Vestas 4.5 MW wind turbine can produce 7.5 kWh in a single rotation of its blades (6 seconds).
That same amount of electricity would cost more than 1 m³ of gas to generate it in an efficient power plant.

Just a head's up, it looks like LearnWorlds may have been hacked, and their mail server is currently being used to phish YouTube accounts (LearnWorlds is a major white-label online course platform, so you may not realize you're a user of their platform).
This morning I received an email from LearnWorld's official mail server, claiming something I posted on my YouTube channel violated the company's copyright, and that I need to respond immediately.
The email felt off. It cited no specific copyright violations, didn't reference my channel by name or link to any videos, was sent on a Saturday morning, and YouTube has a built-in copyright system to handle exactly this.
On the second pass I realized the link it asks recipients to visit to handle the "copyright claim" is a YouTube redirect link. It uses the official YouTube url, but has an embedded redirect which takes you to a third-party website.
The site is designed to look like an official YouTube webpage that enables users to review copyright claims against their channel. It contains both the YouTube and Google branding, as well as a very similar theme to the official YouTube one.
The site asks users to look up their channel name to check for copyright claims, presents them with a fake copyright violation, then asks them to "verify" their channel.
The channel verification button takes the user to what looks like a official Google OAuth sign in page, which if they log into, will give the hackers control over the Google account they sign in with, enabling them to steal both the Google account and associated YouTube channel.
