my blind cat hates my printer and regularly sneak attacks while it is asleep. I'll soon have to replace all the wires.

Starting tomorrow, the Trump administration is set to send notices to 1,000 student loan borrowers (first round) noticing them of an intent to garnish their wages for student loan debt.
This is cruel and unnecessary.
If you receive a notice, send it to us and we'll try to help.

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

It's been a hell of a year for my reading: read through the rest/most of Morrison's and O. Butler's books. Read Le Guin's Earthsea and Hainnish books. Read most of the Hellboy U. Read the primary Snow Queen cycle books. A hard year to top
