Thx for the explainer - I have some research to do.

I’m not sure what that last part means, but TY.

I don’t ever want to have to set up my PC again. Will Tumbleweed be good to accomplish this for a user used to Windows?

GFY & grow up. Then hope you never become homeless. Consider yourself blocked.

Well, that’s quite an insulting assumption of how our relationship stood. Even if he wasn’t into me as you not so subtly imply, he was most definitely into my spouse & the reaction was the same.

Maybe - just maybe - it’s possible some are different than others?

Nah.

My thinking is that he was getting the socialization with other cats at my aunt’s that he didn’t have as a solo cat in our home.

You’re one up on me. Many years ago, I was in a situation for a while where I had to home my cat at the time with my aunt who was a bit of a “crazy cat lady.” When I came to visit a few months later, he didn’t really react to my presence at all.

That’s the thing, tho - I could take them, and after a getting to know each other period they’d likely be fine with me. There’s no real loyalty as long as they get what they want. Dogs might adapt, but if they see their original human love even after a year or more, they’re dumping your ass for that person.

Love 'em (got 2), but they’re just not quite as attached to their humans as dogs tend to be.

That is why I specified “less extreme,” but yeah, that’s fair.

Less extreme Leftists generally aren’t nearly as likely to be control freaks as the right (although there are always exceptions), so getting them (as a group) angry enough to fight takes much more effort than it does the right.

GET OFF MY LAWN, YOU DISRESPECTFUL CRETIN!!!

Normally I’d say Sling didn’t have a prayer under this administration, but Disney has pissed everybody off - including the Grand Cheeto - so I’m just gonna go stock up on some popcorn…

From the Wikipedia page:

In September 2017, Toys “R” Us filed for bankruptcy protection in the U.S. and Canada. In June 2018, Toys “R” Us closed its remaining 200 stores after entering bankruptcy, however certain international divisions outside of the United States continued.

In January 2019, the global (excluding Canada) Toys “R” Us intellectual property was transferred to Tru Kids, Inc. In August 2021, Tru Kids announced that Toys “R” Us would be opening over 400 stores within Macy’s starting in 2022. A few new standalone stores would open, starting late in 2021. The flagship store is located in New Jersey at the American Dream shopping and entertainment complex. A second flagship store was opened inside the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota, in November 2023.
