I have the smaller relative at home. Can also be lethal!

My cat D’Arcy thinks I can’t see him when he hides at night behind the drapes.

Out of all the Epstein emails I’ve read thus far, this little one might be my fav. Epstein succinctly captures the Trumpian essence in a few keen observations.

I read this little piece on Reginald Betts today in “The Week” and I thought of Margaret Atwood’s famous quote: “A word after a word after a word is power.”

Here is my dad. Class of 1956. Rest in peace.

Someone sent me this pic revealing the addition of yet even more meretricious stick-on decor in the White House colonnade. It’s really enough to “gag a maggot” as my old hopscotch buddies would say.

Additionally, I was listening to a podcast about the wasted animal lives in drug tests. This film sounds very informative. Ppl think we need meat to live - false - and they think we need animal testing for drugs - also false.

You’re courageous for posting; I can’t hack the hateful responses. (I’m not mentally there). But, I just read an article in The New Yorker called “Cage Match: How forty-three Monkeys United Animal Rights Activists and the Right,” and I cannot believe what a fucked up world we live in. Keep posting!

This would make a great gift! I looked it up, and was semi-pleased to see it’s not on Amazon. So, even more special. www.happypotatopress.com/potatoes/one...

I saw this little guy on my hike today, and he was twittering his bitty heart out. A “lesser” goldfinch, but great in spirit.

Saw this great book at The Geffen Contemporary gift shop at MOCA in Los Angeles. My favorite recipe was “Bread Crumb.”

Fallen Confederate Statues Take Center Stage in the Year’s Boldest Show www.nytimes.com/2025/10/20/a...

I went to the show today, and it was really something! Bring your glasses for all the plaque reading, and a tissue for your eyes after seeing the film “Homegoing,” a tribute to the Emanuel Nine.

I’ve no idea what’s in his lil head, but I’m 100% sure it’s something mildly violent. It’s late, but it’s still Caturday!

Me: I TOLD you not to do this!
Dante: I see your mind is troubled with complex problems.
Me: Get your gray @ss off my puzzle!
Dante: I cannot hear you; did you make noise? Time to shush — there is a bird outside the window.

Happy National Black Cat Day! This is my cat D’Arcy wishing you a happy, safe, and scary Halloween. He was rescued from a TNR colony about 3 years ago.

PSA: keep your cats safe from weirdos!

Nisha Vora is fabulous! (rainbowplantlife.com) You don’t have to be plant-based to love the deep flavors of her food. Her “whipped tofu ricotta” and “mushroom carnitas tacos” are incredible. I used a gift card at Barnes & Noble to buy her book (not cheap!). Love it.

Apropos of this, I watched a documentary last night called “Pangolin: Kulu’s Journey” and it was so moving. It does NOT feature the trauma of being the most trafficked animal on the planet, but it’s always in your mind as you watch the movie. Spectacular photography.

D’Arcy agrees! People can be mean, so stay inside on Halloween. Black cats are too special to lose.

Trump’s absurd golden ballroom was in my mind when I read Sam Adam’s words: “If you love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.”
