It's great to see the indoor cat-tivities mention, they are just so smart and active. I'm going to install a bird feeder for mine to watch from the windows.

If the colored spot is like a bubble that moves around, it may be a uveal cyst. It does look to be the case as the bubble overlaps the pupil a bit in the image. There's not much to do about them as surgery causes more harm than the blob itself. There are two types of cyst but I don't remember the difference. The vet can and should check if there are orbs inside the eyeball as those cause bigger vision impairment, but I doubt it at that stage. Since there's not much that can be done about the situation, there's not really a rush to check, it's not a death sentence, just a risk of having eyeballs.

In America we keep the same price but decrease the amount of product. #profit

I get a bit annoyed with a hit meme being reposted 5+ times across instances, it clogs the main feed with repetition and only artificially increases the post numbers while making the whole experience less good. I did enjoy the comment-stacking meme yesterday where everyone added their own take. There are a few news-posting bots that post the exact same articles and cause the clogging repetitive main feed that makes the app far less interesting as well. It gets a bit depressing seeing the same inflammatory headlines 3-4 times, ie "35 blind fingerless coal-mining orphans bombed in Gaza strip hospital, why isn't Joe Biden doing anything?" While reporting is important, the repetition of some themes seems astroturf-y. I also get really annoyed with the bots posting NSFW/ extremely explicit sex content/ads on main feeds. I have been here less because of these things.

I picked up Slime Rancher for Switch this weekend (on sale: $12 (not a bot /corporate shill I just love it so much)) and have not been able to put it down. It's so darn cute and addicting. It plays like Risk of Rain 2 met a farming game. Build an empire from selling different flavor slime poo at fluctuating market prices; find fancier slimes, fancier poo, fancier upkeep tools: profit and repeat. Plus some exploration.

Pointing out on top of this that physical carts are pretty future proof if your console/account go sideways: you can resell them when you are done, or give them to a friend. They are usually cheaper second-hand than it will ever be on sale if you don't mind a missing case. I find people selling collections on local online markets at respectable prices regularly. Be careful with physical pokemon scarlet/violet copies though: defunct/dead on arrival cartridges were shipped to the USA.

As for the fav games: animal crossing new horizons is what I got the switch for and it was a blast. Next most hours played are BOTW, Skyrim, TOTK, and ironically Kirby and the Forgotten Land (and other Kirby games, if you have a buddy to play with).
