My vote is on past trauma involving men. I know a cat dad whose 3 feline kids adore him, and I’ve had my cats be friendly to anyone who respects their space, regardless of gender. I’ve never seen them have a common predisposition to fear men.

Very true! I viewed a solar eclipse under an arbor/pergola that was covered with leaves, and the entire length of the sidewalk inside was nothing but tiny crescent suns.
Any colander/pasta strainer with round holes works wonders for this. One hundred little eclipses cast on the ground–it’s like a free pinhole camera!
One of the greatest!
Beat me to it. I complain loudly and frequently to anyone who will listen.
Such beautiful eyes. Great photo.
You could post (good old-fashioned) flyers around the most visible public places nearby (public library, grocery store, hardware/home center, church, etc.), advertising your IT skills.
Rural folks I know appreciate someone nearby who has even basic IT skills, saving them a trip into the city to a big box store that would charge them an arm and a leg to diagnose and fix the simplest issue.
If you charge less than they do and are conveniently closer, you could have a decent part-time source of income.
Not sure how rural you are, how tech-saavy your neighbors may be, or whether you’re hoping to make a bigger shift career-wise, but it’s an option that has worked pretty well in my rural area.
Oh, the ennui. Salut, Pips!

This right here.
Large one-topping pizzas are only $7.99 if you order on the Domino’s website with their coupon, which is usually located on the home page. Make sure you click “see all coupons” if prompted, because they bury some of them.
I once had a problem picking up an order I’d made online that never went through. They tried to resubmit the order themselves in-store so they could make the pizza on the spot, but the total was almost twice as much without the online coupons. I had to place my online order in the store since they couldn’t access those deals themselves.
Bonus, though, is that you can get the extra large “Brooklyn style” for only $10 (instead of $15+ regular price) by up-sizing that $7.99 large pizza for $2 more when you check out.
