Starting November 5, the Black Cat Curiosity Shoppe in Salem, MA will revise their Cat Food Bank in order to supply folks impacted by the SNAP funding lapse with one month bags of cat care necessities.

Details below:

Post by Black Cat Curiosity Shoppe

We understand that lack of access to SNAP benefits will also affect people's ability to provide for their pets. Starting November 5th, we will be revising our Salem Cat Food Bank and providing a standard "one month" bag of supplies for cats that may be picked up at our shop. We will still accept donations, and they will be split up among these supply bags. Please tell our crew at the front how many cats you have, so we can give you the right size. We will have different options for kittens and seniors.

It's going to be ok.

EDIT: We will be deleting any political commentary. That is not what this is about, this is about helping because there is a need.

They’ve added adorable little ghosts to the train-arrival boards in the New York subway and the most fun thing about them is knowing that if Sean Duffy saw them he’d piss himself and faint.

I gotta be real, I did not suspect we would reach "roving mobs of white folks chanting "shame" at ICE" within 9 months, and it really feels like a sign of how much more horrifying it must be on the ground than those of us not there can even imagine.

I am losing my gd mind seeing the number of people on here who are so doompilled that they cannot imagine that telling millions of people, including tons of MAGAs, that they’re out of food money and they also can’t have health insurance anymore might have any effect whatsoever on anything

important reminder: food banks usually prefer money to direct food donations because they can buy at discounted rates

check with your local food bank to be sure but now is the time to help out

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

For those not fluent in Catholic: refusing the Monstrance is not denying prisoners the Eucharist, it is refusing Christ himself, since Christ is present in the Monstrance.

If Portland’s blow up animals are the right language for Portland, this is the right language for Chicago.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.
