If you make the handmade tentacle a sparkly pink, does it get too hentai.

Is that a bad thing?

So my buddy Carlota, who is taking over Dogskull Patch, has a group of feral cats to deal. She’s been trapping and neutering as possible, but one sweetheart named Big Daddy showed up on the porch limping. Some asshole shot him. She’s raising money for his amputation and care. gofund.me/3b6cf293e

Is life often terrible? Yes.
Are there still always people out there going “Let’s make a cool ass thing for other people to see?” Also yes.

CONGRESS NEEDS TO GET RID OF THE "HOMELAND SECURITY ACT OF 2002".
ICE & Christy Noem are LITERALLY above the law.
We cannot have a law on the books that puts ANYONE above the law.
TRUMP as US president should NOT be above the law.
A Supreme Court should NOT have the ability to do so.
FIX IT DAMN IT!

Massive escalation at the Portland ICE facility. Worst I’ve ever seen. More pepper balls than I can count. Teargas in the middle of crowd. Violent arrests. Some type of either noise or rubber bullet shotgun fired into the air then later aimed at protesters chests/heads at near point blank range.
