She/her, cat person, reader, cultural studies scholar, queer, from Poland. Currently very into Dragon Age & Wheel of Time. Always very into reading & TV.
I've seen too many self-proclaimed leftists put Ukraine and Israel together in one sentence on this subject.

Thus I no longer see them as sensible, and not sure about leftist.

Counts her four cats: oh crap.

Then another cat, then another and then you're done!

People watching Mad Men now is giving me a serious hankering and I rewatched the whole thing this April/May...

My boss's 17yo daughter told her she "instantly lost respect" for teachers when she spotted AI images in their classroom presentations. My friends routinely make fun of bosses who spruce up their presentations with gen content. It reads offputting, cringe, uncanny, distracting, spam-like.

Mądry polityk potrafiłby się przeciwstawić tej narracji, szkodliwej dla Polski, dla Europy, i dla jego własnej partii. A zamiast tego premier daje się ogrywać.

Artykuł świetny.

And there is no other cat like Mamut. Who is totally using the opportunity to get midnight, 3 am and 6 am feedings out of this.

He is on day 5 of chemo, and seems to be doing v well, but who knows what his next results will say. Something could suddenly fail, or his anemia could become dangerous. Or he might respond to the meds and go into months long remission.
Tl;dr, preventative tests are important. And our vets rock.

It's a mindfuck, knowing he likely has months-at-best to live (and possibly much less) yet having him behave mostly as usual. Pre-grieving. Making memories. Treating symptoms. Spoiling him by letting him walk the stairs to the next floor, supervised. Discussing euthanasia with the vet to prepare.

Yeah, I went to bluesky and saw... Silence on the subject. It's a travesty and also barely on progressive USians' radar. Awful.

(Our new diagnosis is sadly bad, but we're treating him like a king for as long as he's comfortable.)

Last year we managed to see Nickel Boys (which was not distributed in Polish cinemas at all) and honestly, our track record continues to be absolutely awesome.

I was too entertained by e1 to care beyond a raised eyebrow, but then e2 felt genuinely annoying/offensive with all the stereotyping.

I haven't seen 3 yet. I think I might wait for more of the season to come out before catching up.

(Alien:Earth felt more believable because greed superseded all.)
