Three good things:
-> I think my little girl kitty loves the computer vertical mouse as much as I do! She loves on it every chance she gets. It's just the perfect vertical height to rub against.
-> My divorce finalized yesterday. Already feel so much more free and myself!
-> I'm quickly chipping away at watching videos in my YouTube channel video queue. At one point, it was around 700 videos, now it's less than 400.

I have an iPhone 13 with the Lightning connector for now. When I plug it into the front of my Mac mini with a cable purchased from AT&T, the phone says it’s slow charging.

Might this be a non-MFi cable? Or do the front USB-C connections only support limited power output?

I’m planning on getting an iPhone 17 Pro when it comes out, and am trying to prepare as best as possible.

I don't know if it's working as expected, but if I use the Apple iCloud+ feature Private Relay, the Mastodon advanced web interface (the multi-column one), will frequently have one or more columns with the Mastodon logo character banging against an object saying something is wrong. Even if I choose to show IP address or reduce content protections, that is not enough.

As soon as I disabled Private Relay, it goes away straightaway. I was hoping to have the online protections.

Help, my kitty has turned into a traveling snail! 😻😻

Three good things:
-> Had a very good meeting with a local spine surgeon today. He's actually going to see this through, and not kick the can down the alley to the next surgeon! Glad I tried one more time.
-> It's 101F here at home. This weekend will be 20F cooler. Love Colorado weather!
-> I started Zepbound this week, and am already seeing some weight improvements. And the actual shot is a complete non-event; I had it built up in my mind as something very intense!

Bonus:
-> My divorce will be finalized as early as this Saturday.
-> I love my little girl kitty so so so much! 😻😻

She sees the world with her own particular flair!

Questioning health life choices

I'm trying really hard to not go down a slippery slope or rabbit hole. I'm also not being self-indulgent or seeking pity. I'm honestly trying to evaluate this and understand it better.

What I'm eluding to here is that basically every part of my body and mind have one or more significant health conditions. I've been working for years to address these.

But sometimes of late, I question why I am doing it at all. What benefit am I providing to society and to people around me? The last thing I want to do is to be a net drain on all types of resources.

This isn't a cry for help that I am having suicidal ideation. It's more just questioning, um, life choices? I don't particularly have someone to talk this with IRL, although I'm trying to engage with a therapist that can shed some light on this and other important mental topics.

Any insights are most appreciated, dear Fediversians.
