This is not Pat Cavanaugh, but reading his company's home page, couldn't help thinking about Jack "Action Jack" Barker's Conjoined Triangles of Success, from the TV show Silicon Valley.

Joe Rogan is the equivalent of an attention economy arms dealer.

War and chaos are necessary to his business model.

He has known all along what Trump and MAGA represent.

Huanhuan (joyful) was abandoned by her human. After we rescued her, she was extremely fearful and aggressive towards everyone. Except Gao Er, our shelter manager, whom she immediately bonded with. (These videos were taken while we finished renovating our new "Sunflower" shelter.)

Literally the first two living beings I saw after waking up this morning. The white thing on Big Boy’s nose is what’s left of a document that Ten chewed into lovely little pieces. Seeing them like this cleans my spiritual timeline.

I loved this sign already, but now I have a question: Are these legs spring-loaded? Like, can you push the sign and it bobbles around? If so, that would be amazing.

Called Senator LIndsey Graham's office yesterday and told them, as a family member of multiple war veterans, I'm appalled and disgusted by the Senator's gaslighting remarks defending Trump's shameless ambush of President Zelensky. #SlavaUkraini

Da Zhuangzhuang and Xiaomei: hope for the future Mutt-Meow relations. A stray dog who survived distemper and learned to walk again, and a three-legged cat abandoned at a vet. Somehow they found each other and that gives me hope.

This is cruelty to animals.

As a puppy, Monty had his ears cut in half and his tail sliced off.


The kennel clubs of the UK and US continue to propagate an industry of crackpot pet eugenics that is depraved and cruel.
