@narfcake@werehatrack Which is why we keep our bedroom door closed at night. Otherwise, we get awakened at 4AM by an 18-lb cat on the chest, kneading and purring.
@Kyeh oh. Yeah… I guess that’s a little offensive… I was just trying to /image “cat to the chest meme.” Did not even occur to me… Um @werehatrack /@narfcake maybe delete that?
@Kyeh@narfcake@unksol I edited the trigger and got a nicer cat, albeit minus the chest explicitly being a feature. If you folks want all of the debris from that splat scraped off, I can do that instead.
@Kyeh@narfcake@werehatrack thanks. That’s basically Alex. Big chonky boy. That can hit like a brick. People can imagine. Not sure how I missed that/didn’t really want that linked to meh wherever it came from. My bad
Was thinking a full body slam like
/youtube cat saves kid
Force = mass x acceleration.
Cat fast. Cat thick. Cat hit
@narfcake@werehatrack I don’t think it should be deleted cause it happened and was a thing. So no one who saw it thinks it’s just gone/they imagined it.
I do think if a post was moderated/changed the likes from it should be removed. At least in this case. People stared one image probably thinking like I did… Then we swapped it out. Granted just for A big kitty but a totally different image. So nothing related.
The image people liked, which was the whole entire post. literally changed to something they didn’t actually star. I’d rather wipe it clean. If the post you liked was entirely changed… That’s not what you signed up for. They can reread the fix if they see it and decide
@Kyeh@narfcake@robson@werehatrack it’s always a good one… If you watch it’s a full on sprint then the last instant a pivot and a hip check… That cat learned some physics somewhere.
@narfcake@werehatrack also maybe you should not be able to star a post during the edit window? I think lots of people use it like me to both fix things and retry YouTube image other stuff… Not this issue but eh.
@chienfou@ircon96@Kidsandliz@Kyeh@narfcake@robson@unksol One of our youngest habitually waits until we’re both almost asleep, and then jumps on the bed, meows for attention, and starts head-butting my hand. She’s the most recent momcat, and we figure that she’s just shy of two years old. One of the older cats will occasionally position herself next to me on the bed and deign to accept scritches as well. (She’s the heaviest cat in the house by a small margin, so it’s good that she tries not to land on either of us.)
@brainmist@narfcake@werehatrack should just be a timer but also probably not a real issue. Anyone refreshing meh that often probably knows who they are staring and isnt about to get a rugpull with Nazis lol.
@OnionSoup My S.O. needed one for mental health reasons until moving in with me relieved the continual stress. Shortly after that, it was in a box and getting donated.
@OnionSoup my aunt gave me weird looks when I explained how I turned the heat down to like 45 at night during the winter and had to have my feet out…
The whole weighted blanket thing is just a… Gentle pressure that some people find soothing/helps them sleep. It’s not much/distributed. Cats are not distributed… Well. Ok if you have enough they are but still local pressure points and much much heavier. I have experience in this sort of thing. Trust me bro
@OnionSoup@unskol Same. I run hot, my wife runs cold. I sleep with just the sheet over me for all but the coldest nights, she bundles up in the blankets even in the summer. I actually like it when she puts her cold hands or feet against me to warm them up.
Plus, I’m a little bit claustrophobic, so a weighted blanket sounds like a nightmare to me.
@macromeh@OnionSoup I’ve been told I’m very warm while being snuggled into. So. Just need to find the appropriate heatsink to spoon. Lol
The cats are heat generators too so. That’s not desirable.
The blanket part… Im pretty sure you can get ones that are just two sheets with the weight. Not really a “blanket” since it’s the pressure that seems to help.
But yeah when I think of a blanket I think pulling out the comforter and that’s a deep winter dive into a freezing bed situation. And still too hot
@OnionSoup@werehatrack I will say that I bought into the “it feels like a hug” line. While I appreciate the idea of being a little spoon from time to time, a weighted blanket didn’t have that affect on me. It did keep from falling to the floor from my night kicking, so that’s a plus.
I was surprised to get a weighted blanket as gift. I was disappointed thinking … another useless, unused gift. But no … turns out I sleep better with the gentle pressure. I never expected it & I love it now.
@Kidsandliz@MaxieBabie I feel like I sleep better when it’s cold. Which is kind of documented thing. And if I have something over me.
Probably better in winter when it’s very cold. And drag out the heavy comforter. So. If that works for you and you don’t sleep well maybe worth a try. With the detachable blanket layer.
I honestly just have slept on the couch for a few years with YouTube on which is very bad. When the cats own my bed/has to be defurred and when I try and use it there’s at least 5. Not the cats fault I just. Work. Insomnia. When I make myself adjust it’s better too so.
Coco jus goes for the chest. Jack, tealc and Alex are around. Alex may just be close. Cause he’s good boy. Someone or four at on my feet/legs. With the occasional toe swat.
@806D2701 eh. I thought it was funny. Appropriately attributed although statistically the jokes probably been made before. I enjoyed it/would have never seen anything on the Twitter.
A small minority of the population has ever been on Twitter, before it became a porn site. That percentage has to be going down cause pornhub has a lock on that. Not sure how X plans to compete there since they never did in the socialmedia market
@806D2701@unksol I had wondered just how net-illiterate XBoy had to be, in not realizing that he’d just reassigned his toy to a box that had a whole bunch of questionable baggage in it.
@806D2701@unksol@werehatrack Um, there is a Tesla model X.
There is the S, 3, X and Y. (Get it?) The 3 was supposed to be the E, but apparently Ford has a lock on the letter E and wouldn’t let him use it.
Oof. I had not spotted that. Yeesh. I will note that they weren’t released in that order. It was S, X, 3, Y. Still, the chance that this was not intentional seems small, given the visible proclivities of the CEO.
@macromeh@unksol Huh. Looks like the only hit is a typo on a used car pimp’s site for a Model S in South Florida. And given that the post has headlines calling it a Model 6 but the body text calls it a Model 5, I think I can confidently assess their clue level as being sub-zero.
Does that also means that the hooman is sleeping in the cat’s bed?
@narfcake To Cat, hoomin iz bed.
@narfcake @werehatrack Which is why we keep our bedroom door closed at night. Otherwise, we get awakened at 4AM by an 18-lb cat on the chest, kneading and purring.
@macromeh you monster lol (Image changed at OP’s request. -mod)
/image cat chest
@macromeh mmm… Not the meme I was looking for. But. In line with the felt effect so… Gonna leave it
@macromeh @unksol EUWWW!
@Kyeh lol you can unstar. You got me before I finished editing for the meme. There are some good ones but. It is quite a punch in the chest some days.
I have no idea why Chinese is in there though.
@unksol It’s a nasty joke on Chinese food being made from cats.
@Kyeh oh. Yeah… I guess that’s a little offensive… I was just trying to /image “cat to the chest meme.” Did not even occur to me… Um @werehatrack /@narfcake maybe delete that?
/image cat to the chest pounce
That took forever
@narfcake @unksol @werehatrack
THAT one’s adorable!

@Kyeh @narfcake @unksol @werehatrack I love that video! I’ve seen it before; whoever says cats aren’t loyal or loving has never had a cat…
@Kyeh @narfcake @robson @werehatrack it’s always a good one… If you watch it’s a full on sprint then the last instant a pivot and a hip check… That cat learned some physics somewhere.
@narfcake @robson @unksol @werehatrack
Yes, it should be required viewing for everyone who says that about cats!
@narfcake @werehatrack also maybe you should not be able to star a post during the edit window? I think lots of people use it like me to both fix things and retry YouTube image other stuff… Not this issue but eh.
@narfcake @robson @unksol @werehatrack
@Kyeh As should the gif you posted with the John Oliver impersonator getting love-bombed by that adorably enthusiastic cutie patootie!
@ircon96 @Kyeh @narfcake @robson @unksol @werehatrack All of my cats do what that cat in the video does although one is especially determined to do the rub her head on my face action. And of course @chienfou has posted about his.
@chienfou @ircon96 @Kidsandliz @Kyeh @narfcake @robson @unksol One of our youngest habitually waits until we’re both almost asleep, and then jumps on the bed, meows for attention, and starts head-butting my hand.

Ii don’t like blankets or any kind unless it’s really cold. Weighted blankets sound terrible to me.
@OnionSoup My S.O. needed one for mental health reasons until moving in with me relieved the continual stress. Shortly after that, it was in a box and getting donated.
@OnionSoup my aunt gave me weird looks when I explained how I turned the heat down to like 45 at night during the winter and had to have my feet out…

Plus, I’m a little bit claustrophobic, so a weighted blanket sounds like a nightmare to me.
@macromeh that pretty much describes me. Even the sheets I leave off usually and, maybe TMI, but have to sleep naked.
On a cold night I’ll use a sheet. On a really cold night I’ll use. Blanket, but I won’t sleep well.
I used to have insomnia when I was younger and I swear now it had to be because I slept under sheets.
@macromeh @OnionSoup I’ve been told I’m very warm while being snuggled into. So. Just need to find the appropriate heatsink to spoon. Lol
The cats are heat generators too so. That’s not desirable.
The blanket part… Im pretty sure you can get ones that are just two sheets with the weight. Not really a “blanket” since it’s the pressure that seems to help.
But yeah when I think of a blanket I think pulling out the comforter and that’s a deep winter dive into a freezing bed situation. And still too hot
@macromeh @OnionSoup @unksol The one that was here had a weight layer and a blanket layer. They could be used separately or together.
@OnionSoup @werehatrack I will say that I bought into the “it feels like a hug” line. While I appreciate the idea of being a little spoon from time to time, a weighted blanket didn’t have that affect on me. It did keep from falling to the floor from my night kicking, so that’s a plus.
I was surprised to get a weighted blanket as gift. I was disappointed thinking … another useless, unused gift. But no … turns out I sleep better with the gentle pressure. I never expected it & I love it now.
@MaxieBabie Some time back I got one in an irk. My best friend talked me into giving it to her for her son so I had no chance to try it.
@Kidsandliz @MaxieBabie I feel like I sleep better when it’s cold. Which is kind of documented thing. And if I have something over me.
Probably better in winter when it’s very cold. And drag out the heavy comforter. So. If that works for you and you don’t sleep well maybe worth a try. With the detachable blanket layer.

@MaxieBabie I’d still rather have a cat, plus they keep you warm
@robson
WHAT? Is there a cat as big as a blanket? Otherwise it seems it could only spot warm. Spot warmth does not seem helpful when it’s cold.
@MaxieBabie @robson You clearly do not have enough cats then.
@MaxieBabie @robson you just need to add more.
@MaxieBabie @robson also… Spot heating does help because your circulatory system absorbs and moves tempature differentials pretty efficiently.
A cat is both generating heat and a large insulator.
No different than any other body heat sharing senario. If the surface area covered is insufficient add more
@MaxieBabie @robson @unksol Or you could have this cat:
@Kyeh That is either a very large cat, or a kindergarten classroom counter. Possibly both.
@werehatrack
An enormous Russian cat:
https://www.instagram.com/tv/CZC7mE_PftD/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
@Kyeh @MaxieBabie @unksol That’s not a cat!
It’s actually a very large Maine Coon, almost certainly a male.
@MaxieBabie @robson @unksol
Yeah, they seem to really love Maine Coons in Russia.
@MaxieBabie @robson
Yes but those are the ones that eat you before climbing into a cardboard box.

@806D2701 @werehatrack just needs to release the teslaX and he can buy out XXX.com.
Kind of weird they went to Tesla Y considering… Wonder how that happened lol
@806D2701 @unksol @werehatrack Um, there is a Tesla model X.
There is the S, 3, X and Y. (Get it?) The 3 was supposed to be the E, but apparently Ford has a lock on the letter E and wouldn’t let him use it.

@werehatrack Or just Tech Bros in general.
@806D2701 @macromeh @werehatrack oh… Right. The redicoulous look at me door model. I had forgotten about that… Makes sense
@macromeh @werehatrack I bet next we get the Tesla 6 and 9
@macromeh @unksol The Model 6 already exists.
@macromeh @werehatrack Tesla model 6 returns no results?
@macromeh @unksol Huh. Looks like the only hit is a typo on a used car pimp’s site for a Model S in South Florida. And given that the post has headlines calling it a Model 6 but the body text calls it a Model 5, I think I can confidently assess their clue level as being sub-zero.
@macromeh @unksol @werehatrack
I certainly hope so! It’s my favorite number combination
@macromeh @robson @werehatrack he doesn’t have a pattern to do 420. So based on his past behavior… 3-6-9 makes sense. I would not be at all surprised
