    A medical appointment gave me the chance to be taken back to the op shop because there was a Led Zeppelin shirt I didn’t grab. You snooze you lose, probably snapped up 30 seconds after I left by a reseller.

    But I did get some Buffy dvds and some art books. I went a little ham because things are getting scrubbed from the internet and I’m rediscovering the importance of physical media.

    Life is a little bit easier now the demanding meds schedule is over, instead of stressing Melbcat out all the time we can focus on cuddling and chilling together.

        It happens periodically. Streaming services don’t hold on to things forever, and even sites like the Internet Archive (which shares free access to books) periodically has to negotiate a changing landscape of access to materials.

        We do not own things we get off Netflix, or even off Steam and such. Access can be revoked

        It’s so good. I think she’s got a slightly tender little tummy still but has started the fortiflora.

        She’s now willing to eat her wet food with the regular meds mixed in which is so much less traumatic for both of us.
