miss Kona had to go back to the vet today due to complications from her dental surgery last week 😞 They ended up having to repair an incision site under anesthesia. I'm going to share this again because I just can't catch a break it seems. She's back home now and recovering, just very sleepy ❤️

If you can get your hands on a copy of the book ‘Under Cover’ by John Roy Carlson, I couldn’t recommend it enough.
The author joined/affiliated himself within ‘self styled patriotic groups’ in the US during WII.
It’s an amazing look into American fascism, and could read as if it were today

one thing that always gives me hope/inspires me is that our side is always bigger. people opposing the bad things in the world will turn out in droves to make their voice heard and the counter-protestor groups are always tiny. they have to suppress votes to win

The thumbnail art is from Antonio's game "It Comes in Waves," which made me cry harder than any other game I played in 2024. I highly recommend checking it out!
