The anti-vax crowd is cheering while their children will be sacrificed not to illness but to the military industry. This administration knows what things their base will cheer for and what that cheering will conveniently cause them to ignore.

Reminder that we are a year into aggressive ICE raids and concentration camps, and there’s not a single example of local cops protecting people against this violence, kidnapping, or death.

Should have gotten a gallon of eggnog instead of just a quart.

Chickie P is still afraid of me but the kitten compulsion to play is too strong.

Look at the tip of his tail!!!

I got a new kitten today and he is TERRIFIED. I'm starting to think that the shelter naming him "Chicken Parm" wasn't 100% accidental.

We're keeping that name, tho.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

it's crazy that if you're a cat, your only two life outcomes are eating out of a trash can or getting treated like a little baby

Write my 100th letter of the year. Going to fall short of my not-a-goal goal of 150 letters this year. Still, not shabby in this disgustingly digital age.

My cats' vet assigns a number to every client they have starting with 1 when they first opened. The numbers are currently in the 8000-range.

My cat, Stormy? His number at the vet is 24. He has been seeing the same vet for 14 years now.

Friendly reminder that pretty much everyone is "bad with names." Names are abstract! Rarely does someone's physical appearance match their name, so there are no "context clues" about a person's name that our brain can immediately associate with a person's face.

Today marks the anniversary of John Brown’s 1859 raid on Harpers Ferry. His attempt to seize the federal armory and spark a slave uprising ended in defeat, but the raid has endured as a symbol of radical resistance.

The numbers both look very good and tell an awful story.

That feeling of having a chronic health issue alleviated with prescription meds because you remembered to bring it up during your one annual doctor's appointment that your health insurance completely covers.

If someone wants to gift me a copy of Ammon Hennacy's "The Book of Ammon" or "An Autobiography of a Christian Anarchist" I would be forever grateful.

Can't figure out why these books would be out of print. 😑

My partner's cat died earlier this week, which means that my two cats are now the only cats. Tonight is the first night over 5 years where I'm sleeping with the bedroom door open and I'm wondering if either of the cats will notice they can leave the room while I'm sleeping.

Better Off Ted!

The Veridian Dynamic commercials were some of the best corporate satire ever created.
Everyone has a 1-2 season TV show they sorely miss and not enough people knew about that you are always praising the heavens about.

What's yours?
