I hope everyone has a happy and safe Thanksgiving! If you expect to have guests make sure your cat has a safe, quiet place to chill where they can't slip outside. Just in case, make sure their ID collar is on and if they have a microchip check that it's updated. vcahospitals.com/urgent-care/...

Strategists keep making this point, and yet politicians struggle to inspire constituents ... watching what has happened with #IPEF is particularly frustrating because that was a first step in this renewed commitment.
The time has come, as Lincoln described, for us to think anew and act anew. Defending #Ukraine, and defeating Russia, demands a renewed strategic, industrial, informational and innovation commitment from the West.

Go placidly amid the skeets & reskeets,
And remember what clout there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all followers.

Quote-post quietly & clearly.

Block the dull & the ignorant;
They too have their story,
but you do not have to listen to it.

Baby, are you the climate because you're distressingly hot but also increasingly unpredictable in a way that makes me fear for my long-term safety.

LY [still sweating]: Twitter is a diverse and inclusive community. While we do not endorse the monstrous act of crushing orphans with a 15 ton EV road roller, we’re reminded that it’s important to fairly consider multiple points of view.

New: Elon Musk’s X is throttling traffic to news websites and competitors he dislikes, including this one. Five-second delays on links to Bluesky, New York Times, Reuters, Facebook, Instagram, Threads and Substack. Most other sites we tested have zero delay https://wapo.st/3OYfTa6
