Chicago cat geezer. Tea fanatic. What the advertising industry dubs "GenX." Gray ace. Neurodivergent. Neither proud nor ashamed of that. Frequently it's hard. But I do my best.

This is shameful. Chicago people, if your Alder didn't show up, consider expressing displeasure to them. Council Hearing On City Domestic Violence Program Canceled After Not Enough Alders Show Up blockclubchicago.org/2026/10/01/c...

Council Hearing On City Domestic Violence Program Canceled After Not Enough Alders Show Up
Only eight alderpeople showed up to a hearing Thursday about the city's victim services program, one short of the number needed for a quorum. One survivor called the cancellation a "travesty."

So we meet again, Señor Blep. Did I interrupt your bath? #Caturday #cat
Momo is a sweet cat, and his bleps are fantastic. I caught him during a grooming session.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.
Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,

This would be fantastic headline news. Welcome news. Yet I stumbled onto it on bluesky and, when googling it for confirmation, nobody outside of local Florida TV stations has reported on it. Why? www.wusf.org/courts-law/2...

Florida law enforcement has rescued 163 missing children in 'Operation Statewide Shield'
Officers uncovered 46 children in the Tampa Bay region, 41 in Miami, 32 in Jacksonville, and 3 in Tallahassee.

I find it mind-blowing that, in this horrible summer of 2026, what Bluesky is losing its shit over is use of the English contraction "y'all." AI, if you're going to destroy humanity, what's the holdup?

Harvey Beans is lying his head on top of Momo. The two cats are not exactly friends but not exactly enemies. They’re roommates. If they were human HB would be the one never to wash the dishes.

An ICE officer is trained for 71 days. It takes 150 days to become a certified pet stylist at Petco. One grooms dogs… the other carry’s guns. This is what’s wrong with our country.

You can smell the smoke in my kitchen despite its window being closed all day. Before I closed the bathroom window this afternoon, you would have guessed there was a campfire next door. It's awful.

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
