Kevin is a cuddly goofball, who likes to remove packing tape from packages and enjoys trying to suckle on a giant stuffed bear for 10-15 minutes at a time.

I am still numb with shock and grief from losing my beloved Winston suddenly this summer. The new guys, brothers Kevin and Leo, are working hard to fill the hole in my heart.

I see you are continuing the NYTimes’ long and illustrious tradition of fluffing Nazis. Did your bosses award you a cookie? Perhaps in the shape of an ancient Eurasian religious symbol, the twisted cross with bent legs?

Too bad that we cannot watch the game here in Sacramento. Fantastic way to treat the fans: Blocking expensive broadcasts we have already paid for, like NBATV & League Pass, while not bothering to broadcast the game yourself. Thanks, guys. #NBA #Kings #Lakers

Please, please, please help. DV forced Chris to rehome 2 of 3 precious kitties in order to move cross country to a new safe home. I am giving Kevin & Leo as much love as I can. Please help me reassure Chris & 14 y.o. kitty Zoe that THEY MATTER. Thanks! 🧡🧡🧡 www.gofundme.com/f/moving-to-...

And so the “How do I watch this NBA game” nightmare begins. Tonight’s SAC-LAL game was set to record, & now it appears blocked. We live in SAC, but our RSN is *not* broadcasting the game. We pay $$$/month for DirecTV. League Pass subscriber for a decade. HOW DO I WATCH THE GAME??!?!!?
Photograph taken of a TV screen, which shows a blue box saying “recording isn’t available now. The owner of this content has restricted its availability.” The box is super imposed over a listing for tonight‘s Sacramento Kings at Los Angeles Lakers NBA preseason game. Which is being broadcast on NBA TV, but apparently not watchable by viewers, at least in the Sacramento area.

I have a small/large favor to ask. (Please forgive me for doing so, & feel free to ignore.) Not sure if you know: My beloved Winston died—suddenly & awfully—at the end of July. I have been inconsolable & BESERK w/grief & guilt. I just adopted Kevin & Leo from a DV survivor facing homelessness. 1/x

Leo is making progress every day. Chris rescued Leo from behind a liquor store dumpster when he was a tiny kitten. They were together for 10 years. It is a big adjustment. He is a big love bug. 🦁🦁🦁

Chris made the heart shattering choice to rehome 2 of her 3 beloved kitties in order to move. Energetic goofball Kevin (3) & sweetheart Leo (10 y.o. Maine Coon) are now with me, helping me heal from the crushing recent loss of Winston. Please help Chris heal, & travel safely!

The irreplaceable Winston clearly orchestrated this through the Cat Distribution System. On behalf of Winston, THANK YOU for helping Chris to safety. So we all—most especially Chris—can heal our broken hearts. 🦁🧡🦁🧡🦁🧡🦁

I lost my beloved support kitty Winston, suddenly & horribly, 2 1/2 months ago. The grief staggered & paralyzed me.
And then Leo & Kevin came to me a week ago. Their parent, Chris, had to make the unimaginable decision to rehome them. Please read, RT, & chip in to help Chris start a new, safe life.

Winston was a pro at this.

I still can’t believe that he is gone.

Three weeks ago, at this very moment, I had to say goodbye. I didn’t want to. I’m so sorry, baby. I will never forgive myself for failing to protect you. It seems I can’t live without you. All is silence & loneliness & pain. And there’s no you to sit with me until it goes away. I love you so much.

JFC. Please join me in blocking this proto-Nazi creep. His feed is full of vile stuff.

The tweet reads “from the videos I’ve seen some of those EBT/SNAP people get over $2000 in food stamps. Who the hell spends over $2000 in food per month?” This, of course, is a scurrilous lie.

Oh, Winston. I miss you so much, sweet baby. Life is meaningless without you in my arms. You are love and light and laughter, and now that is all gone. I’m sorry, baby. You should still be here. I failed. You are my world, and now there is only a giant void where my heart used to be.

Please join me in reporting this account and individual posts from it. It is chock full of lies: Racist nonsense about Obama; anti-vaxxer BS about autism, etc.

I love to needlepoint, and have done so since I was a teen. Not a good picture—it’s leaning on a table—but here’s a piece I did many years ago as a wedding gift. It’s a traditional Hawaiian quilt design.

The world is empty and meaningless without you, Winston. I am irretrievably broken because I failed to protect you as you protected me. I will never get over losing you. I will miss you and love you forever.

My baby. My precious baby.
