Just spent the evening crying over our little Moogly😥I know diabetes is manageable and odds are he’ll be fine, but I can’t help but worry that it might get worse😰I just want my baby to be okay😞 #Cats #CatsOfMastodon

My spouse just tested positive for Covid, so I probably will soon as well.

We barely leave the house because of my chronic health issues, and when we have to (grocery, pharmacy, vet) we always wear N95 masks.

I fucking hate our society and how governments & people decided to ignore this pandemic. I was able to avoid getting infected for 3 years. Now I just need to pray I don't get complications on top of my current health issues.

Slightly freaking out and need some help:

I decided life is too short and bought a Steam Deck. First tests were promising, played a couple of indie games and everything worked perfect as both handheld and dock mode with mouse+keyboard.

Not Skyrim though…It’s fine as handheld but it won’t recognize mouse+key when docked??? Can anyone help me fix this??? Otherwise I’m going to regret going into debt for this😰

Still at the vet, but turns out that Moogly has diabetes, which explains why he’s been drinking/peeing more these last few weeks and why his back legs seem weaker😥Waiting for the vet to come back and explain to us what we’ll need to do to manage the illness😔Please send positive thoughts our way, we’ll need it😞Also not sure how we’ll manage financially, we’ll probably have to set up a GoFundMe and pray for the best😰 #Cats #CatsOfMastodon #Disability #Disabled #ChronicIllness #ChronicallyIll

Got home from the vet, having a really rough day, thought I could play some Skyrim to occupy my mind on my new computer (brother's old one) but now it's not even turning on😔 The fans all turn on, but the GPU doesn't; made sure all the cables are properly hooked up but still not working😖 When it rains it fucking pours I guess🥴 Any #tech savvy people could help me troubleshoot this? #gaming #videogames #computers #pcgaming

Watching ''Delicious in Dungeon'' and Izutsumi just showed up...I have feelings😳 #DeliciousInDungeon #Anime

Apparently, even though I've been on sick leave for almost 4 years because of a #ChronicIllness and also got Asthma, I'm still not eligible to receive Paxlovid.

Been told to take tylenol and to ''tough it out''.

Hopefully I won't get much worse and won't need to go to the hospital. Also hope I don't get #LongCovid on top of my #MECFS because that would be absolutely devastating.

I fucking hate our ''covid is over'' society and the healthcare system.

I'm new to witchcraft, very slowly learning as it's hard for me to read, and I'm especially new to runes. Been wanting to combine a protection & healing rune together to help with my health, but can't figure out how to combine them so it feels right. Any thoughts?

Just started watching Delicious Dungeon, even though I normally don't like anime, since the premise sounds really fun.

So far it's alright, but, just like every single other anime, the female character is unbearable. I swear to god every women in animes spend the whole time yelling & arguing in childish manners. It's just weird and annoying.

Quick question for people who make/watch anime: why do you hate women? Have you never interacted with them? is that just how you see them?

Haven't played #BG3 but I kept seeing people thirsting over Astarion, Karlach, and Shadowheart, all very understandable to be fair, especially Karlach😳

Due to curiosity, I went to look up the other characters and WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT MINTHARA🥵

While searching online how normal it is for cats to have an increased thirst after being sedated (Moogly has been drinking water a lot since he’s been back home) I found out that in 1-2% of cases cats who go under anaesthesia for surgery develop kidney disease two weeks later; our Kiki started having kidney issues two weeks after her dental surgery…this explains it…now I feel responsible since I went along with the surgery even though it was only preventative😥 #Cat #Cats #CatsOfMastodon

We’re still trying to raise money for our cats’ medical bills. We were already struggling since I’m unable to work due to my #ChronicIllness and this is just too much for us to handle by ourselves…

Please, if you can, donate to our #GoFundMento help us🥹

Got myself some tea, taking some edibles, and putting on the movie Suitable Flesh (2023) on Shudder🥰

The movie was great!😮Some less than ideal editing+camera choices, and extremely generic music really hurt the movie, but I still found it very enjoyable.

Bummed that Jeffrey Combs didn’t make an appearance😥He would’ve been perfect as the patient’s dad😭

Looking into the romance options of #Cyberpunk2077 in case it goes on sale, and now I'm not sure if I should make a male or female character since I can't decide who I like more between Judy or Panam🥺 #Gaming #VideoGames

Hellblade is currently on sale (Steam) for 85% off, at only 5$CAD!😱 If you're looking for an incredibly narrative-driven game with heavy themes of norse mythology, witchcraft and a good dose of horror ambiance I highly recommend it!🥰

Damn I just encountered my first major-ish Fallout 4 bug…I reassigned some provisioners around but my supply line map is not updating; it shows the new supply lines AND the old ones, so now Imit’s really fucking hard to know which one is the current one😰Anyone knows a fix for that? It’s not game breaking but it is pretty annoying😥#Gaming #VideoGames #Fallout #Bethesda

Gamers are just like wine snobs.

I've seen so many people say that they can't play games that are 30 FPS, and even that 60 FPS is trash; it seems that it needs to be above 90 for gamers to be content.

Only problem with that is that the human eye only perceives up to 60 FPS. (very limited studies speculating that 75 might be the peak but that's still debatable)

Anything above 60, your eyes can't even see the difference. We see movement as ''smooth'' when above 20; movies are between 24 & 30.

Anyone has a favourite recipe for Shiitake+Lentil Burgers? I've been trying my hands at it, and it tastes good, but I can't seem to find the right texture, it tends to be...cake-y?🤔 #Cooking #Vegan

Do you ever scroll on your feed and think to yourself ''uh this one person has been posting A LOT'' only to realize that it's because you accidentally clicked on their profile and the ''feed'' you've been scrolling through for the past 10 minutes was their page? or does that only happen to me?😅

All I want is an RPG where you run an apothecary where you sell herbs you grow in your garden & find in the wild, crystals you gather in streams & caves, and potions, balms, etc. that you make. The townsfolk are either anthropomorphic animals, or magical creatures (vampires, werewolves, witches, trolls, faes, etc.); both those options sound perfect to me. The whole thing with character+house customization.

Is that too much to ask for?🥺

I hate how ableist activists can be.

I constantly see things like ''if you're not going to protests for this issue, you're part of the problem'' or ''don't call yourself an ally if you don't do XYZ''.

Like, I can barely get out of bed on a good day, the best I can do is share posts on social media, if that's not ''good enough'' for you go fuck yourself.
