Had to block bot accounts again. To all the bots I haven't yet purged, nicely played. To all the actual people I want to talk to, here is one of our cats. His name is Balàzs.

I was sleeping like a sleeping thing, when a giant paw forcefully hit me and I was greeted with this "Mommy I need you" face. So I got up a half hour before my alarm because I am not a monster and Mozart needed me. Still unclear for what, though. Still: antidote to the world.

Teaching HS history means you get to ask warmup questions each day. And get this answer to what happened in the 1920 elections. Ratification is even wrong as an answer but 19th Amendment Gratification needs to be on T-shirts.

Watched the Nazi circle jerk that passed for SOTU last night. Mother Nature shut down our schools again, so I am working on catching up, and I am wearing my favorite sweatshirt. And smiling. Because #JoyIsResistance

I don't know how to tell you this but I am here, on FB and Insta. Not X - got out of there some years ago. I am an admin on a FB group for Lhasa Apso appreciation. That stuff is important. Exhibit A: Neville

You see, I think depicting someone as a king is not such a bad thing. Here is a drawing to explain why

Yes, I know that Valentine's Day is a totally arbitrary artificial capitalist creation. Still, I want to celebrate love. You know, the kind where you can actually love who you love.

Counterprogramming for all the things that are wrong: #Mozart is six years old today! He is a rescue from papered parents because it was an accidental breeding.

In a different era, what seems like a lifetime ago, I was a professor who advised a student org on a campus. And today I just happened to find the T shirt from that org.

I want to go to bed but I first have to negotiate for a spot with a *usurper* who has a BLEP so it is pretty hopeless...

We guesstimate that this is the weekend when #Gandalf has his birthday. He is SIXTEEN. He came to us at age seven and he is a great great love. He is also one of our accidental interesting exotic mixes: he is a Bengal mix, webbed toes and all.

Went to my happy place but forgot my sword and consequently split my lip. Translation: I went to bellydance practice and balanced a stick on my head instead of a sword, but I am a beginner and the stick fell and moved faster than the sword, I hit myself with it, and ouch.
