I like that sometimes cats are feral gremlins and sometimes they are liquid and sometimes they are fine fellows looking very dapper and sometimes they are loafs of bread, always seamlessly transitioning from one to the next.

“hey hangman you promised us pics of plants, this is just a bunch of leaves what gives?” newsflash dumbass, leaves IS plants. leaves provide winter shelter for insects like lightning bugs and butterflies, fertilize the soil, and are a pain in the ass to move anyway so just leave them where you can

Pink-footed Geese arriving in the rain, Sheringham - seemed an apt image for this morning's weather. Rain drops peppering the watercolour washes. Not the greatest weather forecast for an exhibition preview evening but such is life!

Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it.

Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators.

Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

This #VeteransDay, our gratitude is with all who served, and our hearts are with the families of the fallen. We honor their sacrifice not just with words, but with action. That means fighting to protect the benefits they were promised and committing to end #ForeverWars.

The one thing every single one of us can count on in this life is that you will become disabled.

The only variable is whether it happens at birth, in old age, or somewhere in between
Yall real silent about disability injustices because most of you don’t see disability as a thing that can happen to you.

We are “aww those poor people”. Meanwhile disability can happen to anyone at any moment and those injustices you ignored? They become your experiences too

It's not hard. You pronounce it to rhyme with the first name of the actor, J Cusack.

The best way to "respond" to a bad take is not to mention the original take at all. It's to make a new statement that is actually true/that you want to magnify and share that instead. Its making a new story; building a stronger and more compelling narrative.

GUESS WHAT BINCHES. IT’S NICE BIRD O’CLOCK
I’ve seen many photos of saw-whets over the years, displaying the species’ keen stink-eye ability. It was humbling, to be this owl’s target. #birds

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

I think about these words from Teddy Roosevelt often. Let his birthday serve as a reminder of the generational fight to protect our public lands and waters from being stripped and sold off for greed.

💚 ich hatte eben auch noch so einen Moment, das ist ganz schön dass wenn es mal düster depressiv wird , meistens eine Erfahrung in die andere Richtung folgt irgendwann. War einfach nur froh zu leben und hab nochmal gespürt wie kostbar das auch ist.

There are going to be a LOT of people in thrift shops this year.
And in food banks.
And at holiday soup kitchens.

For the love of CHRIST - now that someone's brought this to your attention, please go through your stuff - for kids *and* for grown-ups - and for once, give some GOOD stuff away.

Because some damn fool asked, here's a thread about Baxter.

This was taken on the day I brought home Baxter and threw away all hope of an easy life.

Look at him. Absolutely irresistible.

And that's how they get you, the utter bastards

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.
