A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show! Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

@thehighsign.bsky.social I haven’t been able to listen to the last two episodes of the Gabfest, in a kind of anticipatory grieving. For more than a decade, I never missed an episode, and the things that you discussed often found their way into my classroom.

What a delightful read, by @dodai.bsky.social "The choices at the vending machine were downright existential: Would you prefer to add time? Or add value? In life, everyone wants more time! But who would turn down more value?" Definitely read the comments. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/22/n...

"...cats meow more frequently when greeting male caregivers. The team hypothesized that men 'require more explicit vocalizations to notice and respond to the needs of their cats'...suggesting that many cats have concluded that men don’t always listen, and adjusted their behavior accordingly."

Don't make me push this idea too hard, but the Halloween-Marathon Day weekend double whammy, especially when we get to wake up on Sunday with the sun over the horizon, really does feel like the High Holy Days or the Carnival of NYC's civic religion. I love it so much.

Norman Meowler is now visiting in Jämtland with my hot Swedish husband, the Tween, and Bob the Dog, absolute canine unit.

A floofy orange tabby looks insouciantly over his shoulder as he wanders down a driveway. Two cars are visible on the right, a slice of red house and a red bicycle are on the left, and there’s a lot of green lawn.

Just got home from Oak Ridge. And now.... may I introduce... my new kitty! Sissy is her "adoption name" but I'll probably rename her when she tells me what SHE thinks her name should be.

My new cat, Sissy, a beautiful tortoiseshell kitty!

This very pretty, very young, very pregnant cat was living on the backstretch. She is very well taken care of by the trainer who owns her, and the barn adores her, but we decided it would be best if she had a safe, indoor place to have her babies.

I love when a cat like Dandy finds a home through the cat distribution system but remember: you can bring the CRS to you! If you're in the NYC area, please consider adopting or fostering from the NYACC, which has reached capacity and can no longer accept animals into care. www.nycacc.org

It is a mark of the innate inequity of our system that when working people want goods or services, they must pay upfront. But if corporations want goods and services they can pay for then when it suits them, typically well after they have received the goods and services.

"Carrie Agne walked over to the colt, bending her head to his nose and cradling his head in her hands, oblivious to the commotion around her. She had met him only that morning at DeVaux’s barn, but the attachment was deep and profound, a perfect moment amid still powerful grief." (by me)

the other thing is that no one who fetishizes manual labor actually cares to improve life for people who are in those circumstances! no support for unionization or a generous welfare state! no interest in policies that make life easier for people who work their hands or afford them more autonomy!
