re: Warner Bros/PAramount

In all this debacle, no one has mentioned the historic legacy of these two studios. I am concerned that the "renaming" will physically affect the two sites — erasure of the water tower signage at WB and the iconic Paramount gate signage examples

Years ago, we lost swaths of historic backlots of 20th Century studios and MGM studios and no-one cared ( well, I did, but you know what I mean )

Warner Bros, Universal, Paramount, etc are pieces of the legacy of America and should be protected. For over 100 years, movies and music have been the greatest exports the United States ever had. The movies and music of WW2 were integral to the defeat of nazi Germany.

Are/can these studios be designated as national historic legacy sites to protect them in some way from erasure by over zealous billionaires? What about state and county designations?

Warner Bros alone, despite MGM's golden reputation, is historically the most significant movie studio of all

I could go on, but putting this out there because I am very worried

EDIT: Destruction is a real worry - Just recently, WB decimated is satellite lot THE RANCH and we lost a lot of iconic viable structures

Regarding splashing water...

I am getting close to my wits end with my cat splashing water all over the kitchen floor.

I have posted here before looking for solutions, and thought I have found some. But in the end, I am defeated. And so, so frustrated, and internally furious.

Before any of you come in with a "solution", it had better be a good one cos I have tried them all. I have spent hundreds on water fountains, fancy water dishes and bowls, hamster bottles, kiddie pools, water absorbing mats, bath mats and sissal mats. I've tried separate locations for the water. Large bowls. Small bowls. High sided plates. I've put the water bowl in the kitchen sink, the bathtub and bathroom sink. I don't like those plans because I have an otherwise nice and tidy apartment. I don't want junk my place up with these bizarre solutions. This is MY apartment. Plus trips to the vet and a cat psychic. Quiet chats with him. And crying pleas with him. I could go on and on and on and on.

I'm so tired

I just cant take it anymore. I love and love and love my guy, but I refuse to be a slavey to this daily watery mess.

I think I am getting close close to just ditching the water bowl entirely and he'll just have to drink water while I stand there watching, and that's it

I've had cats my whole life and have never had to deal with anything like this until this guy came into my life

Is there really nothing that can be done?

Please... anybody

Watching Sven on FRNDLY was not so friendly tonite

The first 29 minutes was nothing but commercials, then finally the movie. But at the half-way point. Then there was another very long block of ads that made me miss another huge block of the film. Finally finished with yet another long block of ads obliterating the end of Svengoolie.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
