This is pretty exciting 🤩

I’ve introduced the idea of the #StorytellingCzar in our latest #KCookandCatsCo #rewatch #moviereview, covering #OceansTwelve (again).

Read: kcookandcatsco.medium.com/sequels-can-...

A hypothetical conceit, but a fun one 🤓

Hey Mike Johnson – the more you facilitate a cover-up and do everything in your power to prevent the release of the Epstein files – the more your constituents, the American public, and the whole world are going to believe you are guilty of the exact same types of crimes as Jeffrey Epstein.

Bring as many American flags to No Kings as you can.

Scalise refers to No Kings as the "Hate America Rally"

It really is bizarre to me that every single member of GOP House leadership & the admin has decided their coordinated talking point this week is that the No Kings demonstrations this Sat are essentially acts of domestic terrorism. Are they that afraid of free & peaceful assembly?

Domestic shorthair; quit telling people you’re a Russian Blue 😆

Bowie’s got his own #BlueSky (mostly bc I keep getting suspended for guillotine-talk, lol), and I have never been able to snap a good photo of Imani-Ophelia, but here are the other 3 #KCookandCatsCo #cats:

Bomani-Hamlet Cook
Peaches Cat-Cook
Moo Cat-Cook

Were a blended, hyphenate family 🤓🐈🐈‍⬛🐈🐈‍⬛

Bowie!

Bomani-Hamlet Cook for long 🤓

He tells everyone he’s a Russian Blue. I honestly don’t know if he knows whether he’s lying or not 🤔

Peaches is a HANDFUL but very sweet and smart. She’s always up to something. Often, it’s climbing onto my shoulders from the floor using my legs and back and hair 😆

Moo (I didn’t name Peaches or Moo) (obviously, look at the names of the other 2 lol) is, like, the gentlest, sweetest, quietest cat I’ve ever known. I have to make a point to go visit with her throughout the day, or I might not even see her some days 🥹 she always loves it when I come into her room and snuggle up with her, though!

Hey, there’s no bad reason! And I am a lifelong reader who BARELY reads books anymore (shamefully), so this works both ways, too 🤓

Hilariously, for the college newspaper, I did a little of everything, and food/restaurant critique was, like, the ONLY time I’ve ever sat down to a keyboard and had nothing to say.

Hardest and worst 450 words I’ve ever written 😆

It’s harder than it looks! (And I also don’t ready any) 😅

Relatable 😆

I do film criticism, but yeah, totally 😅

#Portmanteau #mashups of #books, rather than #songs:

“Where the Red Fern of Courage Grows,” a #mashup of #WhereTheRedFernGrows and #TheRedBadgeOfCourage, which I prompose might be the saddest #book ever 🤔

#BookSky #literature

Damn you, Wilson Rawls. I haven’t read your book in more than 30 years and even now, thinking of it makes me cry.

This one also made me cry, but probably from boredom? I can’t rightly recall, except that it was quite upsetting and not my speed…

I’m a little sad nobody has read my Danny Amendola piece (it’s really an #antifa #memoir; maybe I categorized/promoted it wrong).

It’s the most Me anything I’ve written has ever been. I’d be delighted if you’d give it a read: kcookandcatsco.medium.com/two-time-sup...

Testosterone is very useful in limited, specific circumstances (🍆), but hormonally and evolutionarily speaking, it strikes me mostly as a horny, sweaty solution in perpetual, desperate search of a problem.

I’m at the point where I now don’t personally know most of you guys that follow me, & it feels like the tiniest taste of fame 😅

I esp appreciate the 1-time strangers (no more!) among you who decided to follow us 🤗

It’s SO gratifying!! 🙏

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

I had somehow never heard of the #Folgers #IncestCommercial (Brother Home for Holidays), and HOLY SHIT, it’s WILD 🤣

Here’s the @andyrichter.co segment with Timothy Simons: youtube.com/shorts/8Mfb-...

Here’s a version of the original #FolgersCommercial: youtu.be/uMwFWDIFVCU?...

It occurs to me that I’m a lot more accurately described by what I’m against, and how against it I am, than what I’m for 🤔

If there were ever a time for that to be a good thing, it’s probably now…
