He hasn't worsened! We had very runny diarrhea starting at about 2pm yesterday, had about 5 or 6 bouts (no accidents though) until he threw up bile this morning. That's when we called the vet

He's otherwise not ill-appearing. Has normal energy levels, eating and drinking still, normal urine and urinary frequency. We were just going to wait it out thinking it to be a stomach bug, but then he threw up.

We got a de-wormer, some gut antibiotics, an anti-nausea med, and new food for a few days high in probiotics, moisture, nutrients, and other healthy gut things.

The vet just didn't have great bedside manner. She concentrated more on him being crazy on the scale/assessment table (normal for him) than our actual ailment. Came in with a f***ing muzzle recommendation and "calming treatments". f*** off lady, our regular vet does just fine.
We’ve taken our lab to the same vet for 9 years and on the 10th she had her first ear infection. The vet tech grabber her ear and she yelped in pain and gave a small nip to get away.
They tagged her for needing a muzzle.
I told them on the next visit she’s done with the muzzle, you can’t just grab an inflamed, infected part of an animal without them seeing you and not expect some sort of response.

Me and Ozzy hope he feels better soon

The Honolulu Ghibli spit on the flea-ridden carcass of our Spite Defenseman: Brandon Manning

Ah, yes, Mandog. Time for a deep dive into your repressed memories. We had to suffer through this tryhardest of tryhards playing 207 NHL games (!) with the Flyers. With his dumb bewildered mug, like he wasn't sure if he sharted, in each and every one. He might be the best recent example of this organization's demented infatuation with no talent fringe players. They demoted Sanheim for his benefit; they scratched Gostisbehere to put him in the lineup. And anytime this overconfident nonentity felt his lineup spot threatened, he'd immediately drop the gloves and get his ass handed to him. They especially enjoyed him destroying rookie McDavid's shoulder; Manning singlehandedly responsible for 75% of McDavid's career games missed. Somehow, this dog turd earned $8.5MM in the NHL.

It's not his fault he made a living out of organizational incompetence -- it doesn't make him a bad person. Wrong! Because Mandog is a uniquely shit player and shit person. After being sent to the AHL by the Oilers, in the glorious dying days of his North American professional career, he was suspended 5 games for uttering a racial slur at Boko Imama. This is the person -- the "veteran presence," as Dave Hakstol said -- the Flyers identified as important to their befouled locker room culture. Throw this f***er in the blast furnace.

@ajgoal's pick:

"We will use this pick to reunite our Team Director with one of his favorite actors.

A buddy cop before there were buddy cops. The Man with No Name before Eastwood (Fine, after 1958, but who cares?). Particularly well-known for his association with Akira Kurasawa, he was a prolific actor through the late 40s into the 50s and 60s. He even made appearances in international films from Mexico and the US.

I guess it's best to get them out of the way as quickly as possible, but back-to-backs suck rhino ass.

That's classy, innit. We start the day with @Asnito on the clock, @Strawberry Fields on deck, and @mja on the lido deck with one pick and then another which will send us back up the order.

F***ing people, man. I watched the third "Fantastic Beasts" movie on Friday, and afterwards I wanted to see if they were going to make any more. I guess it came out pretty recently, but I hadn't heard any reaction to it, or to the series as a whole - I'd been avoiding everything about it until I'd had a chance to watch them. Turns out that reaction to them hasn't been great, which came as a surprise to me - I'd thought they must have been very popular.

So in digging around for info on the future of the "Wizarding World," I saw what the complaints were. And of course, the conclusion Warner Brothers came to was that "it failed because it lacked the original characters (Harry et al)." The movies aren't really worth much of a f***, but the one thing I was excited about was moving beyond the stories of the original characters. The one thing I liked (to a point) was the relationships between the new adult characters, and the fact that it lacked gormless child acting (having been replaced by gormless adult acting). So of course that will be the first thing to go if they continue in this world, and they definitely will. Member berries, innit.

The movie itself really doesn't even warrant comment, it was that half-baked, so I don't know why I care. I don't, actually, and neither should you.

After ~30 hrs of no pooping after 18 hrs of diarrhea, snoop had a normal poop. Yay.

I enjoyed the first one and it was well-received when it came out. The second one was awful though. JK Rowling wrote the screenplay for the 2nd and it was her first time writing a screenplay and you could tell. What a convoluted mess. Because the 2nd was so universally disliked, no one seemed to care when the 3rd came out. I still havent see it.

I know. I'm not sure what made them think a general election was the right thing to hang your plot on. Or why they thought Katherine Waterston (Tina) was part of the problem and needed to be mostly left out. Stupid. They did replace Johnny Depp after his shenanigans, so that was good.
My only problem with Katherine Waterston is how much she resembles her father. Like, she’s a bit of a sex bomb in Inherent Vice but all I kept thinking was, “damn, I guess Jack McCoy is kinda sexy.”
