A large, goofy cat. Joyous. Playful. Loving. Full of opinions.

He was a gentle giant. He loved his life, he loved his people.
He loved to talk, he loved his first toy, always. He loved to eat.

When asked about the death of a W. Virginia National Guardsman, the President of the United States bragged about his electoral margin in her state.

When asked about the shooter, he called the reporter a stupid person.

Please stop holding quarter for anyone supporting this monstrous piece of shit.

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Whether it’s stating the basic truth on the President’s health, correcting RFK’s immoral nonsense on childhood vaccines, and holding their cast of “experts” to account, the time is now to stand up for the medical profession.

I will continue to do across platforms without fear.

It’s not a great deal if you don’t need it. And especially this year, others really need support. So for all of us who have enough, let’s refuse to get sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy and share instead of shop. We don’t need more stuff, we need communities where all our neighbors are safe.

GUARDIAN: “Per head, 🇺🇸 output is six times China’s, and yet, inexplicably, there seem to be more abjectly poor Americans than Chinese. 🇺🇸 inequality is breathtaking… keeps getting worse…”

Wanting to address this isn’t radical.

NOT wanting to is.

If what Miller says is true, why does research consistently show that immigrants (including the undocumented) commit fewer crimes than U.S.-born citizens?

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home was released on this day (Nov 28) in 1986. The film had originally been planned for release in mid-December. The studio believed this would allow it to maximize earnings because the film would be in theaters during the Christmas holiday.

A veteran moving to the Pacific Northwest, then driving to DC to stage a mass shooting of government agents? Sounds like he assimilated into American culture pretty successfully.

Our small town of only 20k people has 2 indie bookstores that have survived for over 40 years each. They're both on Bookshop now, I think.

Check to see if your local indie is on there, if you want to avoid crowds today.
