Help with congested cat?
  • You might consider allergy including those from food. You can change food brands/flavors, analyse ingredient differences, and note responses. I understand vets can also prescribe anti-histamines. Good luck.

  • NaNoWriMo is in disarray after organizers defend AI writing tools
  • Has writing the novel changed in the last several decades? It used to be very rare that any given writer would hit the best seller list, everyone else was steered towards taking writing classes or purchasing somewhat pricey seminars. What is the motive to defend AI writing bots? AI isn't going to be purchasing seminars or taking classes.

    “Generative AI empowers not the artist, not the writer, but the tech industry,” Star Wars: Aftermath author Chuck Wendig said in response to NaNoWriMo’s stance. “It steals content to remake content, graverobbing existing material to staple together its Frankensteinian idea of art and story.”

  • California Democrats strike back against local conservative rebellions on LGBTQ rights, abortion
  • Good. As I read the following sentence,

    ...Fresno County Supervisor Steve Brandau, who developed a library material review committee for his county because he was disturbed by the children’s books included in a Pride Month display at a local library

    I found myself wondering if Brandau objected to parents indoctrinating their children into an Abrahamic religion? Those religions are the historical roots of long-term anti-LGBT sentiments, thus mandating the need for strong protection of minority rights.

  • DoJ and 16 states back lawsuit targeting LGBTQ+ book ban in Georgia schools
  • The article is silent on the topic of religion, yet it is Abrahamic religions (including Christianity) which are historically hostile towards LGBT. I remember a news item I read years ago, the link is long lost, but it was about a Christian who considered it their religious duty to hate and they felt the U.S.'s First Amendment granted them the right to hate. That's quite the misinterpretation of "love your neighbor as yourself".

  • Gateway Church: Texas megachurch faces exodus of worshippers after a sex abuse scandal set off a summer of turmoil
  • It is considered one of America’s largest megachurches, which are congregations with an average weekly worship attendance of 2,000 people or more. There are nearly 1,800 megachurches in the United States, according to the Hartford Institute for Religion Research.

    1800 x 2000 = 3,600,000, roughly 1% of the U.S. population.

    Scientists on both sides of the border are working to understand how the barrier is affecting the area’s biodiversity. Meanwhile, communities try to save animals left without access to water.

    Nature interrupted: Impact of the US-Mexico border wall on wildlife

    The wall has been devastating to wildlife, it has effectively stopped them from accessing water, but it has not stopped humans.
