For #ThrowbackThursday, here's my best boy ever, Bubu. He was born feral and chose us in our friends backyard. #CatsOfBluesky

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies.

I have translated some of the highlights
A screenshot of Lala and Po from the teletubbies. The screenshot is clearly taken from someone's phone, as the borders of the tv can be seen, as well as glimpses into the apartment behind them. Po is in bed wrapped up in a blanket. The text below them reads "I know you were high at my mother-in-laws funeral..." More screenshots from the Teletubbies. Lala seems to be upset with a terrified Po. the text below reads "Did you kill the dog? Why would you do that?!" A third screenshot from the Teletubbies, this time the same scene as before. Po is wearing an apron while Lala seems to still be upset at him. The text below reads "You're nothing but a failure of a man."

I've just drafted an impeachment article against Donald Trump for threatening our allies with illegal seizure of territory.

Send this to your members of congress and demand they introduce it.
H. RES. ___ Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors. RESOLUTION Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors. Resolved, That Donald John Trump, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the Senate: Article of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, against Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors. ARTICLE I: THREATENING ALLIES WITH ILLEGAL SEIZURE OF TERRITORY   In his conduct of the office of President of the United States—and in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed—Donald John Trump has abused the powers of the Presidency in a manner offensive to, and subversive of, the Constitution, in that: Starting from the the first week of his second term, he began to threaten the autonomous territory of Greenland with annexation despite explicit and forceful condemnations from the Greenlandic and Danish governments. The United States is a treaty ally with Denmark, in a treaty ratified by the United States Senate, and the Congress has not been consulted or given ascent to military actions or threats against Denmark's autonomous territory. In a call, described by senior European officials as “fiery”, with the Danish Prime Minister in January of 2025, he insisted he was serious in his determination to take over Greenland. One official briefed on the call described it as the following: “He was very firm. It was a cold shower. Before, it was hard to take it seriously. But I do think it is serious, and potentially very dangerous.” When his close ally in the United States Congress, Andy Ogle, introduced a resolution supporting his bid to take over Greenland, career federal prosecutors were withdrawn from investigating Rep. Ogles. In a May 2025 interview on NBC’s Meet the Press, he refused to rule out using military force to take over Greenland, despite being given multiple opportunities to do so. In August of 2025, he refused to comment on if covert influence campaigns were underway, after credible reports from Danish media reported that three individuals with direct connections to him were engaged in such operations. He appointed Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry to be a special envoy to Greenland, the first time such a position has been created. Governor Landry in his acceptance post on social media stated the reason for his appointment was to make Greenland part of the United States. In January of 2026, In a social media post, he stated that he had ordered his “top generals” to draw up plans to invade Greenland “whether they like it or not”. He posted on social media that ‘anything less’ than U.S. control over Greenland is “unacceptable”. After allies deployed military force to deter the US from seizing Greenland, he imposed tariffs against those allies, suggesting an imminent plan to invade. He sent a letter to the Norwegian Prime Minister that reads as follows: “Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you!” In all of this, Donald Trump has flagrantly and willfully disregarded Federal laws and the Constitution, threatened the integrity of the democratic system, and the world order which the United States has derived immense benefit since the end of the Second World War. He has imperiled the freedom of the people of Greenland in gross violation of international law. He has destroyed our reputation amongst our allies and made them fear attacks on their own sovereign territory. Wherefore, Donald Trump, by such conduct, has demonstrated that he is unfit to govern a Nation by and for the people, has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with the rule of law, and will remain a threat to the Constitution as well as global stability if allowed to remain in office.

As always, Dr. King's message is right on time. Today calls on all of us to hear his wisdom and put it into action.

And if my fellow middle-aged white men are at a loss as to what they should say, remember that "I'M SORRY ABOUT WHATEVER WENT WRONG WITH YOUR PENIS" always works.

ICE seems to get completely flummoxed when they’re being yelled at by white men over 35. They kind of put their heads down and shuffle their feet. It’s like their kryptonite.

My father's cirrhosis was a factor in his death after a fall. I quit drinking 12 years ago. I remember what it was like growing up with him. The author of this article puts it succinctly: " I saw myself in his memories of loved ones treading on eggshells, unsure which version of him to expect."

🐋It's amazing how accurately this passage from C. L. R. James' "Mariners, Renegades & Castaways: The Story of Herman Melville and the World We Live In," written in 1953, describes certain people who are much in the media of late. From page 54 of the 2001 Dartmouth College Press edition.
"Few dictators, however well-established, depend entirely on a regular army, a regular police, and the normal protection of power. They usually create a special force, loyal to themselves alone, men totally alien from the population, who are dependent entirely upon the dictator for life, for livelihood, and for ideas to live by. Ahab has such a force. He has hidden on board a boat's crew of savages from the Manillas, a tribe notorious for evil, and at their head is Fedallah, a Parsee fire-worshipper. Fedallah is a horrible creature, with a single tooth in his mouth, and a white turban, consisting of his own hair, wrapped around his head. He is one of those persons you still meet in the Far East who seem to have survived from the days when men still asked why the sun and the moon were created."

View of the Pont Saint-Louis from my Seine river cruise back in September. Taken just after sunset at ISO 20,000! It's amazing what modern digital cameras can do. #Photography #Paris
Left and right banks of the Seine looking towards the Pont Saint-Louis, which has solid white lighting delineating it's deck. On either side are typical French apartments buildings. The sky is a deep blue with large clouds coming from the top left to the middle. The Seine is dark with street lights casting rays of light in the rippling water. Along the edge of the Seine on the right, people can be seen enjoying the view from the Quais de Seine.

Hanging out with sex workers is the Christian way.

And visiting prisoners.

And looking after the poor.

And visiting people who are ill.

And taking distressed strangers into your house.

All of this is the Jesus way according to the scriptures.

So I'm dubious when Christians are against these.

For #ThrowbackThursday, here's a picture of Snowflake from around 1980. Not quite @catsofyore.bsky.social worthy, but the best I could find. I am very sad that they have to leave this site.

Scan of a slide of short-haired white dichromatic cat loafing in a yard amidst the clover. She is looking to her right, and she has a collar on. Her right eye is blue, and her left eye is green.
