I’m trying to keep up
Orange stain started a war against advice
Begged other countries to help
Cried and stomped his feet when they didn’t and insulted them
Called said war an excursion
Claimed victory many times
Threatened war crimes many times
Bombed a school
Countless have died
Wants a Nobel
Star & Crescent Moon in a blue sky above trees outlined by the fading sunset peach sky on the horizon
…being followed by a moonshadow
Reading matters
Why does fiction matter?
Because stories can sharpen the way we understand other people.
A meta-analysis found that reading fiction has a small but positive effect on social cognition. Including our ability to interpret emotions, motives, and inner lives.

David Quinn • @DavQuinn X.com Gee, a book that demonises
When you are writing your piece of …. *checks notes* … fiction, please keep in mind that you may be upsetting very fragile people.

Quite a way to frame men importing an abusive power imbalance because current law gives women the choice to not be a sexual possession.
the president IS crap
Peace, but only during trading hours
Cat yawning while curled in your lap is the ultimate measure of trustworthiness
Hey, so ICE is still kidnapping and disappearing people in the United States.
Just because they got quieter about it doesn't make it okay.
Abolish ICE. Chinga la Migra.
“We’re gonna block the strait”

Just a friendly reminder that your desire to have a bookshelf with a rolling ladder is valid.
Don’t allow anyone to disrespect you by telling you otherwise.
Caturday, hey 👋
We should have stopped somewhere between discovering fire and filing taxes. We did too much.
Really hard to not come away with the conclusion that anyone who wants to be a politician shouldn't be allowed to be one.
I fully agree. It’s a wild line to walk
Anyway, we have ample research on how living under a state of sustained terror and stress causes life-long health problems as well as intergenerational epigenetic effects. This feels like it's making you sick because it actually is making you sick.
Ordering myself a little treat because today would have
been my birthday if I was born today.

There is no pivoting from genocide. There's no refocusing on kitchen table issues--a madman with an itching to drop nukes is threatening to eradicate a country. There is no planning session for this, there is only action.
Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.
Sorry but I can’t hold it in anymore
I think video games are really cool and awesome and I like them a lot and I don’t care what anyone says
if only we’d taxed the super rich, they wouldn’t have been able to buy our government and kill us 😀
Lasers were a huge scientific breakthrough and now we use them to play with cats. Computers were also a huge scientific breakthrough and now we use them to look at pictures of cats. In other words, science was made for cats.
You ever feel like socialising, but not talking?
Just being close, like a cat?
some of you on here have never teleported to a waffle house and it shows
Caturday 🐰

"Hoppy Easter weekend! PSA: bunnies are not starter pets… they’re more like tiny, fluffy long-term roommates. They live 8–12 years, need space to zoom, and require more care than people expect.
Cats with rabbit ears on the other hand…"
