What makes you think I'd lie? Northern Westchester and Putnam county organized ours, it was announced from our stage in Wells Park.

Oh wait, I understand. All the monasteries are in the same time zone, they don't sing all the liturgical hours at one time. That would be weird (not that monastic life isn't just a teensy bit weird)

That's Lauds. So they sing all the hours at one time of day? Weird, but I know nothing about Trappists. Have always had a soft spot for Dominicans, mostly for the intellectual arguing.

It's quite late there! Did you go to Compline? Do they sing the liturgical hours?

After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that “very few people are going to be there,” you just made history. #NoKings

Please, no. I don't speak Flemish nor Walloon, so it would be a communications disaster.

Well, Susie has cardiomyopathy, and Posie has attitude for years, and hates everyone but me. Artie & Tom are technically someone else's cats, and Chance is too nervous to fly, so.
Bring one back from Belgium!!

I know Susie won't fix everything, but she IS sweet.

Have a kitty. This is Susie, she showed up at the house, starving. She isn't starving now. We are now a 5-cat home.

It's just unthinkable. Unbearable, but of course we have to bear it. How long in Belgium?

We had 4000 in our little village of 2500 in the Hudson Valley! Our population DOUBLED due to the rally! It was so great.

We had over 4000 folks turn out for our small town's "No Kings" rally ... our town's population is just over 2500, so this is fantastic. I felt SO MUCH BETTER attending this with other people who love this country and deplore what's happening to it.

Photo of many people in a park setting with trees in the background. Everyone is protesting the current administration's actions in destroying democracy. There was zero hate, in case anyone is confused. Sadly, our Rep Mike Lawler didn't show up to hear all the many things said about him. It would have been instructive for him.

Well, small cats rarely bring down a cow in the wild, so...

I would pay good folding money to get a peek at your enemies list.

You can tell when he's saying shit even he can't bring himself to believe because his blink rate escalates dramatically.

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

We're so far down in the sewer now that one person *not* holding a match looks like a friend.

Pretty sure he doesn't have 4 friends, let alone with kids who died from fentanyl.
