The post includes higher quality and close up pictures of the project poster and pictures of the cats. The conclusion is that only short hair cats’ buttholes might touch soft, uneven surfaces, like bedding or laundry.
The text of the post:
Get ready for a good laugh! Kaeden (Henry) completed his 6th grade science fair project this past week and tackled the challenging task of answering the internet’s most burning question, drum roll please, 🥁🥁🥁
“Does your cat’s butthole really touch all the surfaces in your home?” 😂 We had a lot of fun with this! As a disclaimer, no cat’s were harmed in the process of this science project. Non-toxic lipstick was applied to their bum-bums, they were then given a series of commands (sit, wait, lie down, and jump up. Side note: Both cats have been trained since kittenhood with a variety of commands, they also know how to high-five, spin around, and speak.), they were compensated with lots of praise, pets, and their favorite treats, and the lipstick was removed with a baby wipe once we collected our data in just under 10 minutes.
His results and general findings:
✅Long and medium haired cat’s buttholes made NO contact with soft or hard surfaces at all.
✅Short haired cats made NO contact on hard surfaces.
But we did see evidence of a slight smear on the soft bedding surface. ⚠️
Conclusion, if you have a short haired cat and they may be lying on a pile of laundry, an unmade bed, or other soft uneven surface, then their butthole MAY touch those surfaces!
So there you have it! Chances are favorable that your cat’s butthole has not and will not touch all the things and surfaces in your home!
Fellow Facebook peeps, you are more than welcome to share this post, to give proper credit, Kaeden’s last name is Henry and we live in Perry, Florida. ☺️
UPDATE: Thank you all so much for the love!!! ❤️ I screenshotted many comments and shared them with Kaeden this morning. We are both so very touched! And y’all’s comments are lit! 🔥 They gave me so many great laughs last night reading through them! And yes, Kaeden most definitely got an A++++++, we homeschool so l made sure he got his A+! 🤩 Funny thing is I have a Ph.D. in animal behavior, with a concentration in feline behavior that I’ve never used 🤦🏻♀️, I feel like for the first time in 15 years I actually put my degree to use, even though I was only supervising his science project! But that we actually did contribute useful information to the cat world! I am so tickled! Thank y’all so very much!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I’m constantly astounded that people seem to unironically enjoy that movie. I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade so I stay away from discussions about it, but I saw it in theaters (because I also love Jason Statham) and immediately regretted it. It felt like it was written as a joke, but then tried to take itself seriously, and failed at both. I feel like I’m getting pranked by people saying they like that movie.

I took an odd journey to get to this source. The actual graphic posted here is rotated and some of its colors were changed. The source for the visualization is this reddit post which links to the WSJ article. According to comments on the reddit post, the visualization pulled from charts from the second archive link, but I can’t find them in the non-paywalled WSJ article (and I can’t access the original article since I’m not subscribed to the WSJ).
I’ve used a similar project in the past: https://github.com/DrewThomasson/ebook2audiobook
It’s cool that more options are becoming available for ebook to audio conversions.
Origin of “long pig”, copied from this Reddit comment:
I think you might be right. In A St. Johnston’s Camping among Cannibals (which the OED quotes in its etymology of the term), he describes how:
The expression “long pig” is not a joke, nor a phrase invented by Europeans, but one frequently used by the Fijians, who looked upon a corpse as ordinary butcher’s meat, and call a human body puaka balava, " long pig," in contradistinction to puaka dina, or " real pig."
Which makes it sound like they were just distinguishing between the length of pigs and people.
Agreed that the chart looks hilariously fake, but it’s a real image from a 2013 leak by Edward Snowden on PRISM. I found that original image in this Guardian article: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/jun/06/us-tech-giants-nsa-data
The Wikipedia article includes more discussion and context on the leak.
I switched from Windows to EndeavourOS a few months ago and haven’t had any issues on my personal computer, it’s amazing.
I also have EndeavourOS as a VM on my work laptop and I somehow managed to break systemd-boot when trying to do a system update though. The system update died halfway through and I defaulted to the classic solution of rebooting, which definitely made things worse because my boot partition in the VM broke. The great thing about Linux, and especially Arch, is the tools and knowledge readily available to fix things and everything was working again (with no data loss) in under 15 minutes. I’ve dealt with similar problems on Windows and either had to accept data loss or deal with significant headaches trying to resolve what should be a simple issue because the operating system refuses to provide basic information.
“Tap” is being used as a noun here. It took me a bit to get it.
