Luna would like to offer snuggles to all of us who are combining rage, frustration, fatigue and disbelief on this day of right-wing murder and destruction. #illegalwar #caturday
A gray-brown tabby cat with a white chin and chest patch demands scritches from the photographer. She is wearing a collar with a pink heart-shaped tag and extending her left foreleg across the frame of the photo indicating just how urgently she needs attention.

Do they have a hierarchy of spots? My friend’s two cats had an arrangement whereby Amelia would always cede the upper basket to her sister Goldberry.

I would roll over and ask for belly rubs and I would NOT bite.

Not that I doubt you at all, but just because I’m that kind of nerd, could you provide the source? # eattherich

Took first ferry out of Split to an island I’d never heard of. I arrived at ferry dock with no idea where to go. I saw a sign saying “tourist office” and went there. Discovered room rental service. I had no plan. Spontaneous decision. Luck was that the particular room I chose was with amazing ppl.

I have traveled around five continents; I would not choose to sleep in a US train station. Also, I can’t do spontaneous travel anymore due to chronic illness and age. And OP’s response re European travel not feeling as safe for many ppl is super valid. What country/city/neighborhood?

That was a choice that I was free to make, based on my observations of the environment and my understanding of the society I was in. Again, I am not trying to say that anyone else needs to make that choice.

The Croatian family was part of a vetted room rental service operated by municipal government, not a bunch of randos. Also, “better” is a relative term. My experience was better for me at that time in my life. I’m not saying you or anyone else has to travel like I did.

Dan Savage is a profoundly decent human being and I’m so glad he exists. Also my eyes may be leaking or it’s probably allergies? Allergies.

People enjoy things in different ways? Spontaneous travel is higher- adrenaline. Yeah you might spend a night on a train station bench, oops, but you might luck into a homestay with a luminous, kind Croatian family who treat you like their long-lost cousin. Now I’m old, so I plan more. Both good.

Hey very cool! You’re a bass guy so rhythm is so solid. I remember we talked about me coming up and playing w/pedals and mando and look you did it! Sorry didn’t respond earlier, was on a pretty drastic social media break. Maybe sometime I could BART up to your new digs, we could play 🎶🎼?

At least we have neighbors whose government isn’t actively trying to overthrow science. And democracy.

Oh yes! I’d run off with either of them in a heartbeat if they weren’t already such mensches with their long term partners.

War crimes are real. Just in case any members of the military are wondering. I myself would really hate to be in a position where I had to refuse an illegal order, and I just hope I’d have the courage to follow through with the refusal. I hope that for our current men and women in uniform.

Luna vocalizes as the wet food approaches. Note that the yellow tennis ball is not hers. It’s the dog’s. The dog never plays with it. We put it up on the cat tree so nobody would sprain an ankle on Thanksgiving. #Caturday #lunakitty #catsky
A brownish grayish tabby cat with a white chest and belly sits on the top level of a gray cat tree. She is wearing a pink collar, and she has gorgeous peridot-colored eyes. Her mouth is opening in the beginning of a meow at the human who has been tardy in bringing her canned food. There is a bright yellow tennis ball by the kibble dish, which is not the cat’s.

Yeah I have random tachycardia all the time. 6 years MECFS, 5 years LC. Probably. Been diagnosed with MECFS, the LC part is speculative. LC worsened the ME. We think. Sorry. It sucks.

Her comments were truly disgusting. I liked this Substack piece about her. open.substack.com/pub/ahmedeld...?

Luna guilt-trips the human by sitting sadly next to her empty food bowl. #Caturday Eve.
A grayish-brownish tabby cat with a white chest and belly wears a pink collar and sits atop a cat tree. Her food bowl is empty. And boy howdy, does she want you to know how empty it is.

My parents are from Merthyr Tudful, my maternal grandparents were from Solva and Llangrannog. All grandparents were Welsh-speaking, but my parents lost the hen iaith, unfortunately. Then they moved to California, where I grew up. But Wales is also home. Hwyl fawr!

Ah sweet, diolch yn fawr! Drove through there last autumn on our way to Cardigan and thence to Aberaeron. We were a bit lost, I think, but it was a spectacular drive from Llandovery.

Yeah exactly. Without the votes, impeachment does nothing. See the former two impeachments… sigh.

In the wake of the senseless deployment of National Guard troops to the District of Columbia, which resulted in traffic and pointless deaths, this video seems extra important.

This whole thing is a fucking travesty, yet another life lost to the cruelty and idiocy of the current “administration.” Sickening.

Hmmmmm! So the WH is subcontracting its ethnic cleansing to the other great specialists in this field? Or this is maybe just not an official account. 😵‍💫
