A fine #Caturday
A teen on their phone (is that redundant?) lies on a couch, with an orange and white tabby perched on the couch arm and staring at the camera and in the foreground, a calico tabby sitting upright on the floor reflecting on her life's choices.

The hunt #Caturday
An orange creamsicle cat targets a cat tail that protrudes from under a couch. The creamsicle thinks she is hidden under the upper flap of an open shoe box, yet her rear half remains completely exposed.

It's a hate crime targeting children.

Also, Kash Patel is a f*cking idiot.
Update from NYT reporter Aimee Ortiz: The F.B.I. is investigating the shooting as an act of domestic terrorism and hate crime targeting Catholics, Kash Patel, the agency’s director, said in a statement on social media.

A medium hair orange and white cat cast in a slanted sunbeam and framed by the leafy vines of a neon pothos, one of the few plants that she doesn't eat.

A floofy orange creamsicle cat and a short haired one-eyed calico sit on opposite sides of a cat tree post. The creamsicle stares straight at the camera in wide eyed curiosity while the calico, looking askance at the camera, has an attitude of either reserved judgment or mild guilt. The calico is definitely the smarter of the two.

Two naughty cats, a calico and an orange tabby, peer out from among somewhat folded towels in a linen closet.

"In Mr. Bukele, the White House had a willing ally, albeit one with specific demands, including a list of high-ranking MS-13 gang leaders he wanted sent back to El Salvador as part of the deal. "That stoked alarm among some U.S. law enforcement officials. The Justice Department has spent years building cases against MS-13 leaders for criminal activities in the United States, alleging that the gang has been protected by the Salvadoran government."

Not the greatest picture, but a squirrel in the foreground and teeny tiny western sandpipers in the back (plus maybe a willet). They weigh like 3/4 ounce and they're adorable.
At the SF Bay shoreline at low tide, a squirrel suns itself on large rocks in the foreground, while in the background teeny tiny western sandpipers are arrayed on the mudflat along the water's edge.

Sorry for sharing an Insta post, but those folks trashing @repkevinmullin.bsky.social and Rep. Petterson should eat some humble pie and thank these congresspeople!
Insta post by Rep. Kevin Mullin, with a pic of himself with a walker and standing next to Rep. Petterson cradling a baby: "After three surgeries, a blood clot, an infection, and being hospitalized for over a week, the moment I was discharged I immediately rushed to the airport so I could get on a plane to D.C. and vote NO on Republicans' disastrous budget plan. "Rep. Petterson traveled from Colorado with her newborn son so she could vote NO. Democrats did all that we could to stand united and oppose Republicans' reckless and harmful budget. When Americans see their health insurance costs go up, lose funding for schools, have their roads deteriorate, and have an even harder time affording groceries - they have Republicans to blame."

Google is now suppressing all of the corrections to its relabeling of the Gulf of Mexico
A review of "Gulf of America" posted 2 weeks ago that reads, "This is the Gulf of Mexico and don't you let anyone, much less orange turd-sucking G**gle Maps, try to tell you otherwise."

Pretty sure Whiteness is a better explainer
A chart of US population distribution, by generation and race/ethnicity, published by Marketing Charts in 2020, shows non-Hispanic whites comprised a majority of silent (79.3%), boomer (72.3%), and X (60.4%) generations. Whites comprised just over half of millennials (52.7%) and just under half of Z (49.0%).

@jamellebouie.net, would you maybe add Bluesky to the bottom of your newsletters and maybe demote (or even trash) the Xitter link? 🙏
