Proper weekend posture. #Caturday
Our black/brown cat lounging on our bed, her paws draped over the edge, staring at me. The bedding is white with a blue floral pattern. The morning sun creates horizontal shadows.

Had to spend some time resisting today in KC. Horn honking, thumbs up, and a few people flipping us off. #TeslaTakedown
Two protesters. Man in a black parka holding a sign that says “No No No Elon!”. Woman in puffy blue coat and disposable mask holding sign that says “Billionaires don’t want Democracy”.

Decided to opt for some time outside rather than more doomscrolling.
My view of the path during my walk: a wooden bridge with metal railings leads to a paved path. The path weaves across a grassy hill with a few stark trees under a cloudy sky.
