Black cats are amazing. I had my Bombay, Abby girl for 12 years but she passed because of organ failure in 2023. She was so fun and absolutely gorgeous especially her eyes. She had black nose, whiskers, paw pads and lips making her a true Bombay.

We are not only headed towards a recession. We are steamrolling towards another depression and picking up speed. You might want to save the money you were going to spend on Christmas and hand out some IOU’s and home baked goods. Shits going to get real.

Tim Walz: "It's almost unimaginable that he's got Milei in there, giving him $20 billion, so that they can undercut us and China can buy their soybeans from them. And now China has learned they can replace our markets."

I know a slimy lizard when I see one.
Why don’t you ever hear about that assassination attempt? I mean not one word? Because it was a fake ass event, otherwise they would have went all the way around the block for months about it.

Chip and Benson (and Patrick McSploot 👆) @chipandbenson.bsky.social · 3h

I sure do. See my earlier post over an hour ago.

And he was horrified to see that on the cover. He had a meltdown. While he’s very vain, you may be on to something. Think any news worthy outlet would bring up his perfect ear? Not likely.

I totally agree as rescues such as PETA cannot justify the salaries of their top paid people. I do donate to American Humane and I❤️Dogs as well as my local Humane Society.
