She/her. Science, politics, cats, Judaism.
Please join me in reporting Mojave County Indivisible to the national organization for spreading and doubling down on antisemitic conspiracy theories. The only reason to think AIPAC had anything to do with yesterday is if you think Jews control the government. Email info@indivisable.org

@katvolk.bsky.social and I did some pumpkin carving tonight! I made the derpy vampire, Kat made…well, the cat. 😄 Happy Halloween!

That’ll do.

Handle is very accurate, at least.

Finished marking my prayerbook.

Good night.

I'm really out of patience with Christian atheists who have decided the best way to deal with their hatred of Christianity is to hate and abuse Jews.

So is @religiondispatches.org still publishing someone who thinks antisemitism is "rational"?

When I wrote this reply, I sent this account to @postingtreyf.bsky.social, not because he'd said anything antisemitic yet, but because I knew he would as soon as some one challenged him. My literal message to Becca was "give him an hour." Check the timestamp.

For once I am actually asking for advice: Cat people! What food brands do your cats find irresistible, particularly in their golden years? Siri (almost 14) is getting increasingly picky about her food, and I am trying very hard to stave off the beginning of the weight loss and frailty.

1. Responding to a post about Judaism, not Israel, by bringing up Israel? Probably antisemitic.
2. Demanding a Jew you've never interacted with before give you their stance on Gaza? Absolutely antisemitic.
3. Assuming a Jew you've never interacted before is a "Nazi"? HORRIFICALLY ANTISEMITIC.

It took a surprisingly long time to get one of these, but for your blocking pleasure:

The word antisemitism was literally invented to replace Judenhaas, which means "Jew-hate" in German. It's not a shibboleth, its a synonym, and it short-circuts those who want to do Nazi race science about "Semite"

And this is the response I get to this post. Yeah, no antisemitism at all.

And you're allowed to say "fuck" on the internet, dude.
July 26, 2025 at 11:47 PM
Yeah that's definitely what I was saying, you're not antisemitic at all.

The House Appropriations Committee is scheduled to markup the science appropriations bill on Thursday morning. I don't know if the current news means this will be canceled, so I'm going to make this post with a caveat: if you call in response to this request, I may need you to redo that later.

LOL nailed it:

Are you from one of these states? Then we need your help to save American science!

The Senate Appropriations Committee will be marking up the President's Budget Request for science on Wednesday. People have been saying the proposed cuts "decimated" US science, but that's wrong: they are apocalyptic

Going to take a bit longer to undo my addiction to their Recipes, but I did just get rid of the last bit of their news I read.

Not having Bluesky on my phone means y’all don’t get cat pictures, so here’s some recent adorableness before I delete it again

We are getting lots of time to admire each other’s decorations

See? Ghostbusters car. (The yellow tape is also them, they’re trying to keep cars away from their party. Which is probably not allowed.)
June 14, 2025 at 10:29 PM
No idea what this is supposed to be but I applaud the effort

Re-added Bluesky to my phone for the #NoKings Motor March in Tucson

Like this weekend I updated my friend and my's Minecraft server to 1.21.5 and we spent our entire weekly session looking for the new stuff. My first response on finding the cold-variant chickens: "They're purple! And they have stupid hats!" And this will be how they are forever known to us.

Block and list.

I don't know who the fuck you're arguing with, but it's someone other than me. Also:
