Tbh one of my dogs has one solitary talent and that is being able to escape anything. She has figured out how to open doorknobs, but not how to disengage a lock on the other side of the door. So I potty in peace.

He also has actual books about the holocaust, from a sympathetic perspective, on his goodreads. Tarring someone for reading Mein Kampf, the autobiography of one of the most influential people of the 20th century, is WILD.

Both reliable trains and abortion access are good and important. Not relevant here.

I’ve been seeing a lot of people bringing books to cocktail bars lately, but it always feels kinda performative? When I listen in to the inevitable conversation started with “ooh how’s the book?!”, the book hasn’t been started or they’re on page 5.
