A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

We're still looking for someone in the Inland Empire area to adopt or foster this little tortoiseshell kitty. I'm willing to drive halfway to L.A. if anyone there wants to meet up to take her.
A neighbor was taken to a care facility, and her little tortoiseshell kitty was left behind. I can't take her in but I've been feeding her and giving her water every day. No one in the neighbor's family can take her in. Is there anyone in the Inland Empire area that could foster or adopt her?

people who ask stuff like this aren't interested in actually talking to trans people, they just derive joy in asking people to voluntarily give up their human rights. its a power thing
Answer me this:
You have to choose between Gavin Newsom and Trump or some MAGA chump. No other options. If you're really saying that you wouldn't vote for Newsom in that situation, you're not smart enough do what's best for all Americans. Especially trans people.
You need to think strategically.

I'm not going to get into an indoor vs. outdoor cat debate but I want to point out that Jan - Mar is coyote mating season in North America, which means coyotes are more agitated and territorial and therefore an increased danger to outdoor cats. Make the best decisions you can for your pets, please.
