It's always been a capital crime to commit insubordination against male supremacy; enforcement happened in private domestic settings.

Now that we're no longer pretending women are full citizens of the US--cf abortion rights--officers of the law join openly in enforcing the male supremacist regime.

The MAGA regime is currently doubling down on its tactical stance of “we will kill women like dogs for merely displeasing us.”

#timelinecleanse - despite the fact that they have their own furniture they always sit on my furniture. They are having a safety meeting to discuss the recent vacuum cleaner usage.

It is a sunny winter afternoon and plenty of light streaming into this corner of the living room. The walls are painted light blue and covered with various types of cat art (paintings watercolor photography). There is a big mission oak arm chair in the corner with a small black cat in cat loaf position looking at the photographer. On the left of the photo there is a bamboo arm chair with a ginger tabby seated in a beam of light on a grey green and black striped Mexican blanket. The kitten is sitting with his face to the sun, and his paw is up close to his tongue as he is bathing and cleaning his face To the right is a square ottoman covered with a striped Mexican blanket - the biggest section of color is brown, which is pretty close to the Brown of the large seal point Siamese - Valentino is also sitting in cat loaf position and facing toward the chair in the corner

For decades, cops have been trained not to shoot at moving vehicles. Immigration agents have shot at least nine people since September.

All of them have been in cars.
Cops are taught not to shoot into cars. ICE keeps doing it anyway.

A ginger tabby kitten, and a black cat are sitting in tandem on a brown patterned rug. They are both looking up at the photographer. The ginger kitten is seven months old and already much bigger than the black cat who is 10 years old.

A person with long brown hair and glasses wearing a black hoodie is looking into the camera. There is a ginger tabby kitten standing on their shoulder, looking down to the floor. In this photo, a ginger tabby kitten sitting on a pink bathroom vanity is rubbing his face on a hairbrush

Tony and Valentino - July to January

#gingertuxedo #gingercat #gingertabby #kitten #blackcatranch #blackcats #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky
A seal point Siamese cat is snuggling with a ginger tabby kitten on a red fleece blanket. The kitten is laying on his back belly up and looking towards the photographer. The bigger cat is licking the kitten on the back of his head January - the same ginger, tabby kitten, and Sealpoint Siamese are spooning on a great fleece blanket and you can see how much bigger the kitten has grown

Tony had three meals before dinner so had dinner time. He wasn’t too interested in having more food, but he might change his mind later.

#gingertuxedo #gingercat #gingertabby #kitten #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky
It’s evening so it’s low light in the hallway. Light spills out from the open door on the right and just passed the door knob. Edge of the door is a tiny ginger tabby seated in the light from the bathroom. He’s looking toward the photographer. The walls are painted light blue with white molding. The door is painted white. There is a blue and pink patterned runner in the hallway over the hardwood floor. The kitten has moved from the edge of the bathroom door to the left wall of the hallway where he is casually leaning. There are two large floppy fish toys on the floor in front of him. One is an orange car and one is a steelhead salmon. The hallway light has been turned on, and this is an overhead view of the ginger, tabby kitten, leaning casually against the wall Zoom close-up on the kittens face looking up a depth photographer. We could see his pretty orange eyes.

 Here’s a close-up of Valentino and Tony snuggling. Jojo says she is not jealous.

#gingertuxedo #gingercat #gingertabby #kitten #blackcatranch #blackcats #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky
In this picture, the large seal point Siamese is snuggled face-to-face with the ginger tabby kitten. Their foreheads are touching and their front legs are crossed over each other. There is a space between their bellies. Just behind them to the right on the other side of the ginger kitten is a black cat who looks quite cross Close-up of Valentino and Tony snuggling. Tony’s eyes are slightly opened, and they both look very happy. Here’s a horizontal view of the two cats snuggling. You can see how big the kitten is getting. The Siamese is 16 pounds and the seven month old ginger tabby kitten is 10 pounds.

Evidently, I need to get a new bed as a queen bed is only big enough for six cats.

#gingertuxedo #gingercat #gingertabby #kitten #blackcatranch #blackcats #siamese #cat #catsofbluesky
In this picture, there are six cats on a grave fleece throw which is over a red fleece blanket. They are conveniently organized into two columns along the right there are three black cats. The first one is looking up at the photographer. They aren’t exactly touching, but they’re all organized it pointing their heads toward the edge of the bed. The first black cat is the smallest one on the bed and she is looking at the photographer. On the other side of the bed is a seal point Siamese, who is on his left side, face-to-face snuggles with the ginger tabby kitten on his right side. Just passed them is another black cat, who is looking towards the photographer with a bit of a cold stare.

I enjoyed the rest of my novaterra cheese for lunch, but these two kept pestering me.

I let them lick a little bit of the herb cheese off my fingers and they were insatiable. They want more.

In this picture, we see two cats. A ginger tabby kitten on the left and a black cat on the right. It is sunny and daytime so the light is dappled coming through the windows. The ginger tabby kitten is in the middle of licking his face, and the cats are both looking at the photographer.

They murdered her. They executed her. We all knew it was only a matter of time before something like this happened, but that doesn't make its impact any less devastating. How much more carnage, pain, and misery will ICE be allowed to inflict on innocent, peaceful people?

I picked up a matcha almond milk mask because my skin is feeling a bit dry from the chlorine of a pool that I’ve been swimming in for the last two weeks.

Tony has the best reaction when he realizes that there’s something weird on my face. He can’t stop staring.

#gingertabby #gingertuxedo #kitten
A ginger tabby kitten is seated on a gray fleece blanket. We see his right side and his tail is curled around his legs. He is staring at the photographer and his ears are twitching in airplane mode. Ginger tabby kitten is laying on his right side with his leg legs stretched out, staring at the photographer intently

Valentino and Eclipse are ready for business. #blackcatranch #siamese #blaclcat
A pair of cats are seated on a Mexican blanket covered ottoman looking at the photographer. They are both in Kat loaf position. On our left is Valentino the seal point Siamese. He is slightly bigger than his friend eclipse who was on our right. It is nighttime so their eyes are illuminated by a layup from behind the photographer

In this picture, a dark brown fabric tunnel is laying on a couple of oriental pattern rugs. The tunnel is tipped over sideways so that the entrance points to the ground and you see the back end and tail of a ginger, tabby kitten, who believes he is hiding. He is sitting on a pink flamingo toy.
