Kind of figured, it has too many in-focus points at varying distance from the “camera.” So it still has some uncanny valley in it.

Also, fully gas up your car (or make sure you’re at the top of your safe charging range if you have an EV). If you need to use your car briefly as a heat island, you’ll want to have the ability to do that for as long as possible.
If it were just one 30+ year old cat, it’d be more believable. But the wiki article says that he owned two, and the other one lived into its mid-30s.
Pretty sure that I have a better odds of quantum tunneling my entire self to the Andromeda galaxy in the next ten minutes than a single person has to own two 30+ year old housecats that were born within a few years of each other.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL about the 2018 US Prison Strike, an attempt by prisoners to end US Prison SlaveryEnglish
34·4 months agoRemember that scene in The Shawshank Redemption where it establishes that the corrupt warden was ruining local businesses because he had no labor overhead costs when deploying prisoners all over town to do project work? And then the local businesses started bribing him to stay away from their livelihoods so that they wouldn’t go bankrupt?
Same as modern times: except, it’s 10,000 times larger in scale now, and the smaller businesses can no longer afford the bribes. But that’s okay, because the government stepped in to pay instead.

In their statement, they vilified the victim by claiming she was fleeing law enforcement.
Hmmm… I wonder why she did that? Running for her life, perhaps?
