"full-body cat floss"!
You may already know this - forego the tinsel.
We had a cat that loved to eat the tinsel. Thing is, tinsel comes out unaltered from when it went in. It was like a full-body cat floss.
Decidedly not festive.

NEW: The F.D.A. announced in an internal memo that 10 children died "because of" the Covid shot. Other experts want to see proof.
“This is a profound revelation,” Dr. Prasad's memo said. “For the first time, the U.S. F.D.A. will acknowledge that Covid-19 vaccines have killed American children.”

I hadn’t realised but there’s a bit of a TERFy spat going on over at the other place.
Seems Jenny Watson has reported LGB Alliance to the Charity Commission over ‘safeguarding’ issues. And Linehan has waded in on her side.
Some of the TERFs are not happy! 😁

I had wondered why several prominent terfs had simultaneously turned against Jenny without any clear explanations why. Here, she talks about the LGB Alliance conspiring to smear her in order to protect a male sexual predator in their movement.

When sexual abuse happens inside a system built on virtue, the cover-up isn’t an accident. Those meant to protect women protect themselves. This isn’t confusion, it's collusion with the predator.

If we keep on as we are, the even hotter Miocene beckons
