I remember reading we eliminated a strain of influenza back in 2020, mostly due to universal masking. Anyway, was reading an article today saying a bad flu season is expected this year due to a new strain. Ugh. I wish there was something we could do to minimize infections.

From a parody account on Twitter
The funny thing is if you compare ICE to the Gestapo. Half of MAGA gets really pissed that you are calling them Nazis and the other half wants you to know that the Nazies were the real victims. I think ICE agents get a bad rap. They cry at movies like Schindler's List too. They just cry at different parts.

They're more afraid of socialism than fascism. Both parties. That means they're more afraid of us than him. Think about that.

Comfort is depressed that, despite all protests, all her meals have been late for two days now.

Person with frog avatar: In all these pictures of the No Kings protest, there are no grifters selling T-shirts or flags. None. Reply: Also the sidewalks were left cleaned AND Grindr didn't crash.

JD Vance was an early investor in a startup called Acre Traders, they buy distressed farmland. Farmers, guess who benefits from you going bankrupt...

This is what our "walks" look like. It's why we're both chonky.

My cat wouldn't shoot back; she'd hide under the couch and hiss.
Silly meme: how cats might react to fireworks; problematic if they shoot back.

🧵 Comfort enforces my schedule. So, first thing I'm aware of in the morning is a cat on my chest.

She was sitting on my desk shelf slow-blinking at me. Cutest tabby in Pennsylvania; just look at that tail!

From FB:
Photo of man with 4 lovely drag queens. Brian Boome writes on FB: Doing some research for something I'm writing and found this photograph taken at a drag club in Harlem in the 1960's. It's strange to me that people want to inject fear and hatred into this photograph. They want others to see evil in it. But all I see is joy. People being themselves where they could because, beyond the doors of the club was a vicious world. The photograph was taken by Lloyd W. Yearwood who was Malcom X's personal photographer and who captured so many poignant and diverse images from the lives of those around him. He died in 2010. And I'm so glad he left this image behind to remind me that people whose headwinds were arguably stronger than the ones we face now, could still find ways to live joyfully. Even if only for the time it takes to snap a photograph.

🧵 Don't get scammed. If you want to donate to a cat cause, don't send $ via Paypal or GoFundMe to someone online with a sad cat story.

Comfort has some advice for you. #CatsofBluesky

I know most of you came here instead of X, but I came from FB. I certainly learn more here, though that's kind of depressing, but there is some silliness and plenty of cat pics. But not enough cat videos! Here's one: read the alt text to see the explanation.

I stole this from FB. #discworld #gnuterrypratchett 😭
Sir Terry Pratchett awakens. A skeleton stands at his bedside, wearing a long black robe. He sits up. "Well, hang on, let me get my hat," he tells it. The skeleton reaches into its robe. From abyssal depths it produces a heavy book bound in sheets of lead and night. It is the kind of book that gets stolen by a rugged adventurer from a temple with more spike-traps than the average house of worship contains. It is the kind of book to which the word "tome" might properly be applied. Frost forms in its pages from the lingering chill of the void. The skeleton coughs once and holds the book out to the man sitting on the bed. WOULD YOU SIGN THIS? it asks. BIG FAN.

There aren't enough cats on here. My contribution is Comfort in a box, weirdly colored by grow lights.

Cutest tabby on the planet, boxed and under grow lights that cast a pink glow.
