I wouldn’t let a stranger talk to me the way I talk to my cats. That weird secret language and those crazy voices would drive me fucking nuts.

Protesting? Be careful.
If you're thinking about heading to a "50 States" demonstration at your state capitol Feb. 5, be careful. So much is unknown about this viral campaign. If you go, follow standard protective methods via Google or attached graphic!

I'm really kind of shocked that no one contacted me to ask if I would bottle-feed this kitten. 😹

What’s your favorite keyboard shortcut?

Stephen King, master of the horror novel, just quit Twitter because it'd become too "dark."
That's how horrifying Twitter is right now.
There may never be a more perfect expression of this fact.

Hi Bluesky! I have to get started somehow, so I’m going to introduce you to my five cats.
This is Gilligan, my foster fail. He was abandoned on the street with a broken foot, in a GA county with a high-kill shelter. #FosteringSavesLives
