Pretty soon you'll be able to adopt The Professor and have him live with you if you want. You can give him tenure.

goddd look how much Tibalt has filled in after some love and a lot of good kibble...he looks almost like a proper cat now! we are still looking for his forever home, so if you're in the twin cities area and are interested in adopting him please reach out to me ✨
Before picture of a skinny gray tabby with bright green-yellow eyes. His fur is quite ragged and matted. After picture of same cat, laying down in the ground. He looks more filled out with major fluffy ruff around is neck, shinier fur and brighter eyes.

Adding alt text to this because this is fucking amazing and everyone deserves to read it.
Saved by Stoppard Sir, In 1993 my wife and I went to see the first production of Arcadia by Tom Stoppard (obituary, Dec 1), and in the interval I experienced a Damascene conversion. As a clinical scientist I was trying to understand the enigma of the behaviour of breast cancer, the assumption being that it grew in a linear trajectory spitting off metastases on its way. In the first act of Arcadia, Thomasina asks her tutor, Septimus: "If there is an equation for a curve like a bell, there must be an equation for one like a bluebell, and if a bluebell, why not a rose?" With that Stoppard explains chaos theory, which better explains the behaviour of breast cancer. At the point of diagnosis, the cancer must have already scattered cancer cells into the circulation that nest latent in distant organs. The consequence of that hypothesis was the birth of "adjuvant systemic chemotherapy", and rapidly we saw a striking fall of the curve that illustrated patients' survival. Stoppard never learnt how many lives he saved by writing Arcadia. Michael Baum Professor emeritus of surgery; visiting professor of medical humanities, UCL

A reminder: Trump 1.0 ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, and Trump 2.0 granted the shooter asylum this past April. Trump 2.0 also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus.

The numbers vary from study to study but hundreds of thousands of people have died because of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio illegally disbanding USAID — a body count on par with the first eight years of the Syrian civil war — In just seven months. It’s mass death that is simply unfathomable in scale.

Please repost Otis.
No dog deserves to lose their life due to being stressed in a kennel environment. It’s very overwhelming for them. Fostering truly saves lives. New York.

I saw "Wicked; for good" yesterday. Toto sure looks like a Border Terrier, no? I couldn't find a better still photo. Toto isn't on screen in a long enough shot to be sure. Just some quick cuts.

Two relaxed Border Terriers on a sandy beach on a sunny July day. It is Warkworth Beach in Northumberland. Both dogs are facing the camera. Alfie on the left is sat up. Hattie on the right is lying down. In the background the beach slopes gently away to the blue sea. The sky is bright blue.
