As the other person noted, pill pockets or pill wraps help a lot. My more difficult cat initially kept spitting them out even with the wrap, but he eventually learned that I'm going to try again and again, and he doesn't get the treats until he swallows, so now he's pretty good at swallowing on the first try AND I can get away with the occasional unwrapped pill.

The other trick I used was using my younger cat to help train the older one. I started off using a syringe of water, followed by treats to get them used to the general process and the understanding that they get treats after. My younger cat would line up for another syringe of water knowing he would get treats, so we'd do a few rounds of syringe water every evening, and I just kept doing that until the older cat got curious enough to voluntarily participate. Once they were both voluntarily participating in the syringed water, they would at least come to me for pills, so the only fighting was to get them to swallow.

Some tricks to encourage swallowing include holding their mouth shut and stroking the underside of their neck, and/or following that pill immediately with a syringe of water.

The way I've always figured it out is by deleting some, then loading the page in a different browser or an incognito window, and repeat until the URL is as minimal as possible, while still loading correctly. For websites you use regularly, you'll figure it out pretty quickly.

I don't actually do all that many image searches. I'm usually searching for text based pages, and those results have also gotten super terrible, but this doesn't seem to have any impact on that.

But what about all the AI slop in the web results?

There is another option: don't buy the tacos. Stop patronizing businesses that give you an option to tip.

Just dropping one of my favorites here...

Damn. TIL I'm a bot and can't view either link.

My solution to that has been fostering! I technically only have a sensible 2, but there's currently a total of 7 under my roof, and a few more on the way.

My oldest loves to explore the kitchen counters at 3a. Last week, I found the huge glass jar that I store his kibble in knocked on its side, but thankfully not broken.

I don't even like podcasts, but where do I subscribe to your's??

My extra dumb brain initially read that as "any dumb iranian" and was momentarily infuriated.

I was definitely still drawing/writing on my walls in high school, and I'm not even "artsy".
