Short piece from @themerl.bsky.social about the history of domestic cats! It's refreshingly accurate about the Middle Ages, saying cats were generally valued for utilitarian reasons (not widely reviled for religious reasons as many internet sources love to claim). merl.reading.ac.uk/blog/2023/10...

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Articles making bold pronouncements about the Harris campaign based on “normal” political times have lost their way. (For ex., the NYT—“Joy is not a Strategy.”) The current political moment has its own logic for a LOT of reasons.
Watch for more from me in coming days. (I’m on an airplane!)
