Fish heads

 
I was going to bitch about TikTok because they seemed to be blocking my uploads, but it got fixed a few minutes ago so I guess I have nothing to complain about.  I can't help feeling like I'm dealing with a bunch of crooks though, but what else is new.

Instead, I'll talk about fish heads.  I've been eating at the mosque lately, and sometimes the menu is cat-friendly.  Like rice with fried mackerel.  I used to go around asking those guys for their fish heads to take home to my cat family but it makes me talk too much, so it's much easier to just dig in the trash.  Or swipe all the fish heads before anyone else gets to the fish.  It's unbelievable how possessive people get once the fish is on their plate.  No human I know eats mackerel heads but when I asked for the fish head, some people hid their plate under their sarong.  One kid even lied, and said he eats mackerel heads.  A couple of nights ago, someone served an intricate rice combo called "nasi kerabu Kelantan".  They obviously put a lot of work into it and I feel sorry for them, because the locals didn't care too much for the dish.  Especially the fish, which was mackerel dipped in batter then fried.  But the cats had a feast that night.
