My car made a weird noise on the way home yesterday and I'm really glad I can borrow Spouse's car or my mom's. I went *BONG* and I had not hit or run over anything. It's going to our mechanic today.

non-update: Since we've got most of the clowder done now, trapping is harder. The remaining candidates (Tammie and Orange and the two neighborhood toms) were not out this morning for food. Tomorrow the Mom Bus is busy all day, so it's going to be Wednesday before we can try again.

Well, *there's* your problem. Your house is only partially in the mortal realm.

My mom has it happen so frequently in her 175 year old house that she has a set of bat catching equipment and gets rabies *boosters* pretty much annually. She knows the bat rescue folks by name.

PayPal is updating their ToS to let themselves give your data to merchants starting in November and they're certainly banking on people not knowing to opt out, SO to opt out before they start: go to Settings > Data & Privacy > Manage shared info > Personalized shopping, and toggle that shit off

Screenshot of PayPal's Terms of Service update, outlining their "personalized shopping" feature where they allow themselves the right to give info about you to other companies

This is why our indoor onlies are vaccinated for rabies. We live in an old house, the old house is drafty, and we use window ac units. Bats can get into holes the size of a sharpie barrel.
