Kovacs and Pushkin are too busy drinking to wish you a happy #Caturday
A black & white cat with a long tail and a long-haired brown tabby with no apparent tail at all drink side-by-side from the same water fountain (viewed from directly above).

Just felt the house shake; looks like there was an earthquake 27km away. Not big, but definitely felt the earth move. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/...

Let's see the essays. Make them public. Let us read these scrawled golden tickets offered up by Cornell administrators to allow rapists to continue on with their lives unscathed. Was there a required word count? Did any of them use AI to write their "sorry for raping you" pieces? Let us read them.

In a normal administration counterintelligence agents at the FBI would be investigating this photo. In this administration, the FBI director is in the photo.
Michael Weiss: Why, that’s Ali Abdelaziz is on the far left. Manages a lot of Russian, Belarusian and Chechen MMA fighters including Khamzat Chimaev, who is close to Kadyrov. Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence.

Do you guys remember when the economy was so good that tv shows would have after school specials/ Christmas episodes where the lesson was ‘parents stop working so hard & enjoy time with your kids’ ‘you’ve made enough money/ there will be other jobs’.

I think part of the pundit crack-up has been that they missed the big call of their lifetimes about which was the bigger threat to America: wokeness or authoritarianism. And rather than admitting that, they are doubling down on wokeness, while ignoring an authoritarianism that does not threaten them

I did it! I have successfully grown corn. (Not shown: the layers of wire, netting, and sticks required to protect it from marauding squirrels.) We’ll try these tonight and how many more we can successfully harvest from my tiny field of corn dreams. #frontyardfarmer

The reason Moby Dick is the most American novel ever written is because it is about a violent white man enacting a confusing revenge fantasy against a cheap source of oil.

None of this is a reason to vote for him. Nobody who has said and done what he did should have power. It’s vital that some shit have consequences and being Nazi-aligned is one of them.. If he actually believes the shit he says, there’s a place for him in building better things. It ain’t at the top.
