Oh my god that would stress me out so much to have a cat escape for days at a time! 😱
And oooo! Fun! I would love to leash train, but I dont think any of ours have the right personalities for it haha
I am preparing to be disappointed in the award wins this year, but trying to have hope! Train Dreams and Sinners are both such beautiful movies!
Thanks!! Yeah, it was the first time I've actually had a cat escape and I definitely do not want to repeat! A friend just gave us a cat stroller last weekend and I think she's going to be confined to that for future deck outings 😂
Cannot tell you how depressing it is to read that people are simply refusing to read nonfiction after you’ve worked really hard to write a nonfiction book you believe in, in case anyone is wondering why I’m posting so much about my book which comes out in a few weeks #BookSky
As if this week wasn't stressful enough on a global level, one of our indoor only cats jumped off of our third floor deck while I was not watching for a second 🙃🫠😬 luckily, she got up onto the railing of the bottom unit porch and just waited for me to run around the building to scoop her up.
Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.
I love that their response was to get a custom decorative plate about it 😂
That's kind if my thought, it's going to push people away from the thick frames that could potentially house the tech 🙁
This is a good analogy. Very useful in carefully controlled settings for specific usages, but unfortunately being widely inserted into everything and used without training or PPE and poisoning a lot of things and people and we’re going to pay a tonne of money to remove it safely in the future
stores have no idea how much shoplifting takes place, they only know when stock doesn't match records. how much is due to human error, incorrect shipments, breakage, and theft is a guess. literally cannot know if shoplifting is on the rise.
this was a radicalizing discovery for me.
wild how the left gets framed as miserable and joyless when its just endlessly trying to stop the right trashing everything that fosters life and happiness on earth
BREAKING: Senate rejects the War Powers Resolution that would have blocked Trump from continuing to attack Iran 48-52.
One was an architect and one worked for the railroad (I think loading and unloading stuff, but my mom has stories about the time he brought home an abandoned shipment of baby ducks, and one had a bad leg and was her special pet)
How to win in November
Because if he had died young, it would have been a blessing to the family instead of the Kennedy curse.
Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape, according to a joint investigation by the Texas Newsroom and the California Newsroom. In Texas, abortion is banned in nearly all circumstances, including rape and incest.
the phrase “more than a dozen pregnant children” ringing in my ears www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
This is a horrifying read.
CW: extreme medical abuse related to gynaecology and obstetrics that was mostly race-based and often violated consent.
Northern California’s first condor egg in 100 years reported in redwood tree
Who COULDN’T use some good news? ‘ Scientists with the Yurok Tribe say that two of dozens of condors released to the wild in Humboldt County since 2022, to reestablish the endangered birds, have paired up, built a nest in a redwood tree and appear to be tending to an egg.”

What's scary about this story is the surveillance it hints at. This trans woman had changed her name, legally, but chose not to change her gender marker. She was apparently flagged in the DMV system as trans and her license was invalidated under a law that supposedly only concerned gender markers.
Hey if you're a bird photographer and you're using AI to "improve" your photos (like the image on the left, that changes the color of the bird, moves the eye, erases the tail, adds extra feathers that aren't there) know it makes me lose all respect for you, for just photo quality purposes alone.
On this Disability Day of Mourning, let’s honor Wael Tarabishi, a disabled man who died when ICE took his caregiver away.
Wael told them he would die without his father who was his “arms, legs & lungs”.
ICE took him anyways.
Wael died 3 months later:

It's fun how for the last few days the weather reports were like: "Maybe snow on Monday?" (I think a mix is the most that has actually happened, but still chilly)
And now it's saying this weekend will be 80 degrees.
this one fucked me up so much. guy turns his life around after a drug conviction, becomes a happy, beloved, pet rescuing houseboat dad who undersells his mechanic services so poor folks can afford them. ICE grabs him one day out of the hospital for heart problems which then kill him. horrifying
For my birthday, I released a new micro film. It’s a visual poem about the call to action so many of us experience as we witness the rapid escalation of fascism. In it I used layered recordings of recent Minneapolis anti-ice protests. I hope you enjoy and please share.

that they have kept their relationship intensely private to the point that this is how we find out is probably the best sign they might actually make it
anyway, rules are rules, here is the exact moment she fell in love
Omg I don’t know how I forgot that Elizabeth Gaskell went on a tear for 2years gathering evidence and trying to be a whistleblower about the abuse that the Brontës suffered, after Charlotte Brontë’s death
such wild story and should be more known, esp. since she also suffered consequences
December 2025 through February 2026 was the 2nd warmest winter on record for the Contiguous U.S. according to Prism climate data. The widespread record to near record warmth in the west easily outweighed the cool temps in the east. 🔥🔥🔥
A very fluffy brown tabby cat with a white belly and face, laying on the floor on her back, rear legs spread eagle, looking away from the camera
Oh to be a cat, whose greatest sorrow is that she is not allowed to jump off the balcony and into the tree with the birds
Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.
Don't stop at abolishing ICE, just abolish the whole damn country at this point. Give the land back, pay out anything in the coffers as reparations at home and abroad, just shut it down.
