I parsed this two different ways. The first parsing led me to think āshould there be a Donald Trump Presidency-Elect Dead Poolā? The second parsing led me to think "that would never stop being a gloomy āFuck Todayā (like thereās ever a cheery āFuck Todayā?)
Iāve been reading things elsewhere but worry about getting my hopes raised and then tumbled deep into an endless abyss of despair, but I kind of hope for a Presiden-cy Dead Pool, as long as itās a short-term one

A double-whammy today: Fidel died and then Ron Glass (Shepherd Book in Firefly) so thatās two of my dreams shatteredā¦
The rum-swilling son I mentioned earlier in this thread was actually conceived in Cuba, and my wife reneged on an agreement to call him Fidel should such a blessed conception result in a boy.

I think my cat Katy has decided that 20 is old enough. Wonāt eat, canāt seem to remember how to drink water. I boarded her at the vet this week while I was out of town, because I was worried; they gave her fluids once, which probably perked her up enough to eat for a few days, but she hasnāt really managed to consume anything since I picked her up this morning. Seems like itās finally time.

It was. I was going to take her back to the vet tomorrow morning (knowing that she probably wouldnāt come home again), but she didnāt make it. I donāt think my family has had a pet that died at home before.

are you saying I could have had horns growing out of my abdomen instead of period cramps? because that would have been RAD
(on second though, very inconvenient for stomach sleepers; also, sex would be complicated)
(please donāt take my advice on body modifications ever)

Two today, one massively worse than the other, but both deserving of a Fuck Today.

Iām so sorry. The silver lining is twenty years is a helluva good run for a cat. Thatās practically centenarian territory for the little darling.
I lost my cat three months before his 20th birthday and whereas I was sad for a long, long time, being reminded his time with me was a sign of how lucky he was to avoid the diseases that many cats succumb to and how well-cared for he was did lessen the grief a little.

My sister had a skittish cat so they started her on some kitty-anti-anxiety meds a week before coming to my wedding (Wisconsin to Massachusetts trip).
Turns out that thereās 0.5% of the cat population that reacts negatively to said medication and she was dead in two days.

That is heartbreaking.

Couldāve been worse. A friend who was going to do a reading lost their baby 2 weeks earlier (undiagnosed preclampsia).

As far as I know, those are the only two deaths associated with my wedding.
