The name Juno is usually feminine, but when we met my Juno at the SPCA that was his name and I didn’t want to traumatize him further with a name transplant.

Orange cats tend to be photogenic—also sweet and smart. No, of course this message wasn’t dictated by my cat Juno, who happrns to be…orange.

Harrumph! If ever there were a time when a brilliant legal analyst needed some fresh baked goods from her husband…

C’est beaucoup mieux. Tout le monde est gentil et il y a beaucoup de postes fascinants.

Why Are Bananas Berries, But Strawberries Aren't? A strawberry isn't a berry. But scientifically speaking a banana is a berry. So what's the deal? Why are berries so hard to define?

Hmmmm…..

Hi, Veronica! I was never on Twitter, but I’m really liking Bluesky so far. Kind and interesting—almost reminds me of PWAC-L.

Exactly, Sharron! It’s not perfect, obvs, but it really does give us a voice. Note also that PP would keep Radio Canada, the French network.

Wonderful. Loved every word. I can just taste the potatoes.

I get the impression that the people who enjoy lecturing strangers have stayed on Those Other Platforms. Really enjoying the camaraderie here.

This is Juno, my comfort cat. He came to live with me last January, and hid under the bed for weeks. Since he overcame his timidity, he’s been my sweet companion. His hobbies include.. well, sleeping. That’s basically it.

It’s not quite right, but falconry? Or (something) me?

Feline photography is always appropriate (sez my cat, who should know, right?)

Yes, but I didn’t have a cat for a while so I’m just getting used to his primacy in my life.

After commenting that everyone here knows how to spell, I see that I committed a typo above. Um, well, you know…

Don’t get excited. That did not include any veg or protein—just things like catfood and juice.
