Cedric has no choice but to sleep on his scratching box. We have given him no other places to rest.

Mourn for him. 😢

(Who cares about his heated bed, many dedicated heat pads, fluffy pillows, and cozy spots)

I love my most recent acquisition from @beastieandbone.bsky.social so much 🦀🐚🖤

Horseshoe crabs are so fascinating and take me back to my childhood exploring the marshy ponds of Rhode Island. My sister is so talented 🥰

No.

My neighbor has taken it upon themself to go outside and paint on the STREET where they think parking spaces should be.

And then they left me a note.

Goodbye cruel world. This is my final straw.

Hiked Rattlesnake Ledge yesterday. This is the biggest hike I’ve done since my surgery and I’m really proud of myself. 4 miles!

Former President Obama brings his calm and steady leadership style to us once again to remind us of our power:

“It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—who says, no, that's not right.”

YOU are NOT PROTECTED when a non citizen is denied due process.

If there is no due process, how do you confirm YOU are an American?

You can’t.

Now you rot in El Salvador or whatever God forsaken hell hole you’ve been deported with no recourse or hope.

🇺🇸 The grotesque Elon Musk just left my state of Wisconsin after publicly handing out millions of dollars of blood money in a greasy effort to buy our Supreme Court.

🇺🇸 He wasn't arrested, because he runs with a party that has proven beyond all doubt they are above the law.

🇺🇸 WE AREN'T HAVING IT.
BATTLE CRY
It's all on the line here in Wisconsin ...

The Watchers. 🐦‍⬛

Cedric and a Crow Brother glare at me as they wait for food.

We have a pair of crows that come to our balcony every morning to eat Cedric’s dry cat food that we give him at this point purely for show. We have named them the Crow Brothers even though they are probably a mated pair🫠

The work of making change is difficult. Most of it is boring, unsexy and, at best, modestly incremental from day to day

I clicked on this post from @timothysnyder.bsky.social with the intent to read it later, but instead found myself unable to look away.

An incredibly eye-opening read worthy of a few minutes of your time today:

Did you know?

There’s a directory of Black farmers: “The Black Farmers Index.”

Buy and uplift local. Many are small-scale specialists and located in urban areas. I found an organic resource in my area that I will definitely check out.
