Corruption is a system of concentrated gains and diffused costs: cheaters make a lot of money, and their victims each lose a little. The cheater has a much larger pool of money to spend on keeping the scam going, and the victims need to pay again to fight the cheater.

Reluctantly awake. Lots of rain overnight, I was awake for some time and heard it drumming against the window. I finally fell back asleep, my right hand was on top of Ginza and the left was under the blankets underneath her. I could feel her softly purring.

But somehow I got up when the alarm woke me. I've eaten breakfast and fed Ginza hers. She's now snoozing on the upper perch in her cat tree and looks adorable as always.

Me? I'm far from looking adorable.

@IzabelaKaramia do you have a heating pad you could turn on for her?? Some cats love that when it is damp and cold.

For the price I paid for this modal , I expected these t-shirts to last a lot longer than nine months. I could have bought organic cotton for way less!

I babied these , never put them in the dryer, took good care of them and only wore them when going out, which wasn’t very often.

It’s a lot of work to have the fabric (not seams) fall apart so soon. I still like them, but they’re now suitable only as pyjama tops, unfortunately. @sewing

Collars on two modal fabric t-shirts when they were in the process of being made nine months ago.

@DanielMenjivar @sewing once the edges are fully frayed, it will be ultra chic. You’ll see!

@DanielMenjivar @sewing they will! But also the olds who appreciated the breaking of conventions by the great Japanese designers of the late 20th century, and jumped on board in our little ways. 🥰 clothing can age, and be frayed or be mended, or both. It’s always beautiful. Your skills are so extraordinary!

Tonight on 00:00 CET+1 mstdn.social will go offline for a planned server migration⚠️

I’m trying my best to make this all happen as fast as possible but I estimate a max of 6 hours of downtime.

In the meanwhile you can keep an eye out on our status page at: https://status.mstdn.social

Sad doggie. None of his other people around! (I do not count, LOL, except at meal times)

@rustoleumlove @ai6yr she’s adorbs, my favorite version of doggos! Her nails are long enough to be pushing her toes out of whack, which I understand is very uncomfortable. Our pitties have all been horrible about getting nails clipped, many treats to get them in the door of the groomer, but when nails are trimmed so they don’t press the toes up, pups are definitely more cheerful! The best treat for this has been cream cheese & salami roll ups, before and after. 🥰
