We've adopted six ex-racing greyhounds over the past quarter century; currently, just one, and one galgo (so far).
Reading 19th C novels: George Eliot & Thomas Hardy; RLS; M.P. Shiel is creepy.
Burned-out computer tech. 35 years is enough, isn't it?
I'm 1 degree of separation from a couple of people who caught dengue fever in Mexico, recently.

Statistically, black dogs are the first to be given up, and the last to be adopted. Humans are, collectively, awful.
And it's the same thing with cats.

If you were worrying about this report on "critical Bluetooth vulnerability" you can stop worrying. If you missed it, carry on.
Hopefully you didn't toss all your Bt devices into the bin (with all the black plastic kitchen utensils tossed after the last fake scare).

In Barcelona - "The Abandoned Dog," crafted by Catalan sculptor Artur Aldomà Puig, is a powerful statement, its form radiating sadness and resilience, a tribute to the countless loyal companions who face abandonment and neglect.'

I was looking for this information and he posted it for me.
Threats aside, Vance is also just full of shit. The U.S. seized 19kg of fentanyl at the Canadian border last year, or 0.19 percent of the total fentanyl seized.

Meanwhile, in 2023, Canada seized 27,000 prohibited weapons at the border. The U.S. seized 459 weapons coming from Canada.
This is unbecoming of anyone serving in elected office. There’s also a logical conclusion to his “three ways of stopping this,” and it’s absolutely fucking insane.

"On Saturday, 1st February 2025, hundreds of people and their dogs will march through Central London to the Embassy of Spain, demanding an end to hunting with dogs in Spain."
Our own #DiaDelGalgo walk today, here in Vancouver, was a lot smaller, but enthusiastic.

It's been awhile now, but I've had surgery and been too exhausted to cope with recounting this.
Two Saturdays ago, at 9:30pm, our Finn slipped while walking through the kitchen and fell. We both ran to him as he screamed in pain and struggled to get him onto one of his beds.

What a pair - Lili and Finn. He put up with so much from her, never a gripe.
