Good morning. It's 33F and dark. I need more tea.

@BugsnYogi Macaws have the intelligence of a 2-5 year old, and some species can live to 100. Ours is about 40 and could live to 60 or so.

The thing about macaws is they’re toddlers. I’m tired. At least he didn’t go under the bed and he’s in his cage now.

Someone posted the CS user manual. They strip meta data from all uploaded photos so good news!

It's dark and 32F outside. I have Lapsang Souchong tea. Off to write.

@see_the_sus Awww. That's so sweet. I'm so glad you gave Whirly a good home.

@see_the_sus It would be nice if they decided to get along. Sam showed up here a couple of months ago and well, she seems to think she lives here. Cats. Gotta love em!

Also, we love pet/animal pics. Here’s my cat saying ”stop with the pics” 🤣💕🤣

Today I was on the deck when the elderly cat walked past Sam, the cat who is apparently moving in with us, without stopping to hiss. Then my cat came along and she and Sam hissed at each other and 10 seconds later Sam was lying down attempting to get her to play. Some kind of feline detente going on here!

@LiberalLibrarian @LiberalLibrarian I'm struggling to figure out why photo orientation would strip image metadata from a photo upload. I couldn't find any documentation that speaks to this app removing image metadata by any means.

We can differ in opinions on lots of things and that's fine, but there are some opinions that merit a block or an end to a friendship. That's just a fact.

As usual, the macaw was extremely excited to get his whole spices. He has a very good time chomping them up.

@princesscarolyn I did have the www turned on. Yesterday it wasn't working, today it is, so at this point, I'll just say it's likely related to how federated servers update, particularly if they are sharded. I don't know if CS shards their servers tho.

@CherNohio Thanks. Someone checked for me and it appears to be working now!

Off to make coffee No. 2. It is now sunny and 40F. The expected high is 64F. Sending thoughts of germination to all the wildflower seeds I planted yesterday!

@john_b Yes, it does seem to be working now. I guess it just took a few days. Thanks for checking and letting me know!

@BugsnYogi Freddie. That's the name he had when he came to us at 8 yo. Now he's ~40!

Am happy to have a PRO account, but I enabled the landing page for my account and it just says I need a PRO account for that. The link ends at access denied.
