Do you like cats? Would you like to watch a live stream of hundreds of well-cared-for kitties at a cat sanctuary in Minnesota? Can't believe this isn't yet the most popular thing on the internet.

seems obvious to me but haven't seen anyone else bring it up yet: a big reason that the GOP is running so many anti-trans ads despite their (apparent) ineffectiveness is because the top GOP megadonor is elon musk who is obsessed with attacking trans people because he hates his own trans daughter.

i continue to think the united states government should reconsider doing business with a major aerospace contractor who is an unambiguous white nationalist using his social media platform to recruit and mobilize other white nationalists
If Elon Musk wasn't the world's richest person and didn't own car and space companies, the headlines today would be that Trump is being interviewed by a white supremacist.

SCOOP: The Kansas newspaper raided Friday by cops had been investigating allegations of sexual misconduct by the chief of police at his previous job.

![excerpt from link: EM: So the backstory that we haven't told, because we don't wanna get in trouble, is that we've been investigating the police chief [Gideon Cody]. When he was named Chief just two months ago, we got an outpouring of calls from his former co-workers making a wide array of allegations against him saying that he was about to be demoted at his previous job and that he retired to avoid demotion and punishment over sexual misconduct charges and other things.
We had half a dozen or more different anonymous sources calling in about that. Well, we never ran that because we never could get any of them to go on the record, and we never could get his personnel file. But the allegations—including the identities of who made the allegations—were on one of the computers that got seized. I may be paranoid that this has anything to do with it, but when people come and seize your computer, you tend to be a little paranoid.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ejihld4sywvvqwe67cdkn4jq/bafkreia6voh4vd6xqohfa6zfzn56ifbrq3lsbbbkpgi4b32zt7x73ml2iu@jpeg)

[no plot spoilers] Andor was best Star Wars. Ahsoka is ugh. Filoni is a terrible writer, and like with Lucas in the prequels, this series takes good actors and gives them a single stage direction: "OK, try the line again, but more wooden."

I suspect female loneliness is also on the rise, but they don't tend to go on shooting sprees as a result, so there is less attention towards it.
