Fluffy Death says her Mommy Cat and Auntie Cat @jbgarnerwrites.bsky.social are FINALLY home from NOLA and it's about time. One more day of just Daddy Cat, who's miserly with the treats, would have been one too many.

This was posted on Facebook but seems very relevant.
annactribe 13h - a by author Daughter of MLK and Coretta Scott King posted this advice as the next 6 months are going to "get real". 1. Don't use his name; EVER (47 will do) 2. Remember this is a regime and he's not acting alone; 3. Do not argue with those who support him-it doesn't work, 4. Focus on his POLICIES, not his orange-ness and his mental state; 5. Keep your message positive; they want the country to be angry and fearful because this is the soil from which their darkest policies will grow; 6. No more helpless/hopeless talk; 7. Support artists and the arts; 8. Be careful not to spread fake news. Check it; 9. Take care of yourselves; And 10. Resist! When you post or talk about him, don't assign his actions to him, assign them to "The Republican Administration, or "The Republicans." This will have several effects: the Republican legislators will either have to take responsibility for their association with him or stand up for what some of them don't like; he will not get the focus of attention he craves.

Himself the Assassin says Mommy Cat must ALWAYS take his pics from this position from now on because they make him look svelte and younger. Mommy Cat gets it, buddy...she really does.

From someone on Threads (_jkrow, doing the good work), and it's accurate.
Today's "control your social media" tip (h/t _jkrow, see below): PLEASE PLEASE disconnect any activity tracking on Facebook. It's how they track everything you do off Facebook, every purchase you make, every website you visit so they can make money off your data and serve you more ads. I found out that they had my BANK ACCOUNT, credit card, and ovulation tracking information. Here's how to disconnect activity tracking on Facebook. 1. Go to Facebook settings. 2. Scroll down to click "Off-Facebook Activity" 3. Login to accounts center 4. Clear previous activity 5. Click Manage future activity, choose Disconnect future activity.

We got a new big dog bed. We no longer have big dogs, but we have guest big dogs, so we keep a big bed for them.

His Nibs Das Bootie has approved the new guest quarters and will be keeping it warm until dog guests arrive.

His Nibs Das Bootie looking sad because he's not at the NYE table. But don't feel bad for the Prime Rib Thief - he got his. My last act of 2024 was to not strangle him for grabbing, and getting, a quarter of the roast.
