Slowly doing the cat and dogs living together transition. We’ve got two large dog crates end to end to make a big enclosure for kitty. Izzy genuinely doesn’t care one way or another about the kitten. Cooper is curious but would still like a human hand petting him at all times. Benny…

Feels like twice a week I get notified that a new billion dollar class action lawsuit has settled, and that I am entitled to 5 dollars as a result At this point are we not just selling our data to Fortune 500 companies at a discount?

Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

One of my popular posters, Empty Bowls! It's not just about a fair day's kibble! If you like my work please follow me here for more and visit my print shop at nathannunart.etsy.com Thank you, Cats of Yore.

An early 20th-century cat propaganda poster. A grey cat in worker garb stands in the foreground pointing at a large, empty bowl. In the background is a factory city whose workers are pouring into the streets. The cat asks the viewer through the top text of the poster "The owners have taken our labour, our life. And in return?" It is answered in bold text in the middle of the poster with "Empty Bowls!"

Have you ever tried to read a scientific journal article and been told “you don’t have access, pay to download this article?” Did you know that the author of that article gets $0 if you pay? Instead, you can email the author and ask for a free copy! I’d be delighted to help and answer questions!

Temporary closure of a museum is basically putting things in stasis. This can cause damage to collections just because no one is around to notice changes (pests, leaks, break ins, etc) or if climate control, and security is not maintained. A closed museum still costs money to maintain.

Note: check on your local museums and try to support them however you can especially in rural areas. A LOT of federal funding for them has been cut or eliminated in the last 2 years. Without local, state, and/or organizational support, many museums will temporarily or permanently close.
