Both Cha-Cha and Prissy were abandoned by two different neighbors when evicted. Wanted to find them homes but they fell in love with each and I couldn't let them go if not go together.
So here I am. 😬
Must find homes for her kittens.
I'd keep them all if I could afford to have them all fixed. 😢

Gonna do an essay about how MTV made white Gen X-ers think racism evaporated in the 90s.

Here we go again on my bed. 😏
Cha-Cha just adores playing with them, but they're taking a nursing break
Cha-Cha looked like she was saying a prayer,
"Please let them be finished nursing soon. " 🥰

Like much of that this regime does, the murders of Venezuelan fishermen and boat passengers seem to be being conducted for the sake of making social media content that demonstrates Trump’s masculine dominance. So one way to describe them is as snuff films.

Julian Sanchez @normative.bsky.social · 18h

There is no conceivable argument that these ships, even if we assume they were carrying narcotics, could not be dealt with in some other way. I think we can just drop the caveats and say: This is mass murder.

Chris Hayes @chrislhayes.bsky.social · 23h

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

Audible discomfort from the usually very staid and silent oral argument audience when Kavanaugh made this point. Lots of coughing and muttering.

ElieNYC @elienyc.bsky.social · 3h

Brett Kavanaugh is basically arguing tha there have been "sufficient remedies" for racism.

This seems like a good time to bring up the @politico.com about how young Republicans have *remedied* racism.

1)You may remember the articles criticizing liberal students for their hesitancy to make friends with conservative students—alleging that they were less open-minded than their conservative counterparts.

I think my biggest betrayal is that it feels like they have not nurtured upcoming generations. we've watched them cut the knees out from people who get the base excited instead of mentoring them, it's aggravating as fuck.

The Larger Minion hopes everyone had a fantastic Tongue Out Tuesday!

#TongueOutTuesday #Cats #CatSky #CatsOfBlueSky #BlackCats

Close up front view of The Larger Minion standing on all four and looking at the camera. We see his face and chest. His mouth is open and his tongue is out but curled to the side as he cleans the side of his mouth. We can also see his bottom teeth. Light from outside is reflecting off one eye making it appear blue green while the other eye is shaded and therefore yellow.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
