I lost my cat today. He was my first cat - I had him for 11 years, & I loved him SO much. I'm absolutely ruined; he's always been with me. I haven't really been an adult without him.
If anyone has any advice beyond the traditional "give it time", I'd deeply appreciate it.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

i've been sick like 2x in the past 5 years (as far as tests could tell, neither time was COVID). i'm probably never gonna stop carrying masks and wearing them when i'm around others or indoors
(but i would really like if public indoor venues took air filtration and other remediation more seriously)

Disposable cheap N95 respirators are one of the greatest inventions in medical history. We *accidentally* drove one of the circulating flu strains *EXTINCT* in the wild early in COVID!
N95s can prevent more than just Covid!
They stop colds, flus and other airborne illness.
They’re also highly effective against pollen, pollution, wildfire smoke and environmental triggers.
Many maskers haven’t been sick in years.
Respirators are pretty amazing.

can’t tell if my antidepressants aren’t working or if they just weren’t built for this. like, zoloft was introduced in the 90s it barely needed to work then. if you got sad you could just buy a house.

Super critical. Also an important time to remind people that primary care docs and other community health workers in many states can provide utility shutoff protection letters if you have a qualifying medical condition, an infant <12 months old, or are 65+
Another big problem is that LIHEAP is being (paused? cut?) on November 1st too, so some people are gonna have to unexpectedly choose how to apportion their income between heat/electricity and food.

I work with some progressive advocacy groups and the way some of these people absolutely refuse to use anything other than the strictest, most factual language makes me want to pull my hair out.

One of the reasons I think “defund the police” is a great slogan is that you get to repeatedly tell people that studies show that police don’t actually solve murders, and in fact one-third of stranger-murders are committed by police.

Embarrassing how the media is completely ignoring this. There's likely over 200,000 trans people on ACA plans (1% of 24 million)

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks.
Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again.
NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.
