Me: I'm cool with parasocial and social media based interactions and I respect people's boundaries

Also me: I must apply machine learning photographic geolocation models on JKs posts to triangulate Dora's famous junction box and pet her

@tobypinder @jk I legit just thought this was some weird conspiracy involving J.K. Rowling and Dora the Explorer for a second. It's been a long day

@tobypinder @jk

there's a subculture of Brighton's cats (not only Dora, but others) claiming 2000s era Virginmedia junction boxes as their territory.

Inside the box are things like MOSFET distribution amplifiers for the coax (telly and broadband) as well as routers, VOIP to analogue channel bank, -48VDC /90V AC (to power remote boxes) from 230V supply via UK Power Networks

This stuff is likely to get quite warm even in autumn/winter, making the top of the box appealing to smart cats 😸

@tobypinder @jk it seems to be the modern equivalent of previous generations of cats lying on top on CRT TVs and monitors 😸
