We pray your Worships will recommend sending this Cat to a facility that will provide respite and therapy for restoring her divine Cat-nature to its usual radiant and playful state.

Reminds me of the David Lynch version of Dune[^](*). The Harkonnens have Thufir Hawat hostage at one point and have injected him with a poison. He is connected to an IV that comes out of a tank containing a cat and a rat bound together in an apparatus that somehow manufactures an antidote for the poison. As long as Hawat takes care of his 'pets', he lives.
(*) Like it or hate it, you have to admire Lynch's chutzpah. He was the first to try and film the novel and visually it was pretty amazing. The acting by Everett McGill (Stilgar) and Kenneth McMillan (Baron Harkonnen) were good, and both Patrick Stewart (Gurney Hallock) and Sting (Feyd-Rautha) of all people make appearances.

Hi, I'm a fan of Lynch, starting with Blue Velvet (1986), and I think his Dune is superior to the remakes.
Enjoyed Twin Peaks back in the day, but, tried watching it again, and stopped.
fwiw: I perceive Lynch as not having "sold his soul" to the Hollywood Borg, like Tarentine and Robert Rodriguez.

... up to a lap dancing club in New York's web site - I sure you were only thinking of my mental health in the lockdown - but it is a little disconcerting to get emails with the subject line "Die Happy Tonight!".
I'm sure the free membership they keep offering will come in really handy should I decide to fly 3,500 miles to just look at pretty ladies who clearly need a larger clothing allowance.

They'd probably deny you a visa, claiming that you were entering the United States for immoral purposes...

There is nothing moral about this country. We accept all kinds, clearly.

Why didn't I think of doing that?

I swear, the smaller the thing is and the less fabric it uses, the more expensive it seems to be.
Had a similar argument over my new glasses; tiny piece of plastic to hold lenses, is bloody expensive due to "design". Asked him if they had any without "design". They didn't.

You're welcome. I did the hard work, you just need to book your plane tickets.

No need for that as you already have a laptop dancing cat

I hope you mean more money to by clothing and not money to buy larger clothing.
Please clarify.

It's not about sexism - it's about chafing.

Thank God for that - I was envisioning you getting a job offer!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

So I have an a$$ton of work going on. Multiple VMs zooming along, editors all over, yada yada.
Converted a project from ancient VS to VS2019. I was prompted to update VS2019. Now I have this Installer prompt that says:
"Success! One more step to go. Please restart your computer..."
Why? Seriously, why do I need to reboot? It's just a holdover from the "reboot Windows" it might fix it history. Or is VS really doing things to the OS that requires me to reboot? I'm not being sarcastic here. Help me understand.
