My apparently very unpopular opinion (given that this is #73) is that I LOATHE this song (Red Red Wine) and instantly turn off the radio when it comes on. #XPNcountdown

Philly people: I’m looking for rescue placement for this sweet girl, who we took in after month ago after feeding her all summer. She’s been treated for fleas, parasites, and a double ear infection, and is feeling so much better! Our vet estimates she’s 1-2 years old and I’ve called her Michelle!

This graph is astonishing. The people that bang on about “natural birth” and “women have been doing this forever without help” need to be forced to stare at this until their eyes water.

#TBTXPN I just wanted to shout out Mike V. for always remembering Frightened Rabbit during programs like this and for Lost in the Aughts. Their music means so much to me, and the loss of Scott Hutchinson was a huge one that I still feel today. Always happy to hear them on the airwaves ❤️

Your timeline can probably use some more kittens, so here are our two foster boys from Philly PAWS! They are the absolute sweetest, funniest kittens and have been keeping us entertained all week. Ira (left) has one cloudy eye and Ivan (right) had his left eye removed but is recovering beautifully.

While the women behind "womanosphere" outlets all have different styles and tactics, they are mostly aligned in their desire to return to a gender-essentialist worldview: women as submissive homemakers, men as strong providers.

Very pro-life.

Highly recommend doing this! The number of people who showed up, and the high number of honks of support, thumbs up, and thank yous yelled out of windows was hugely encouraging and reminded me that I’m not alone.
Today, around ten thousand people gathered at Tesla showrooms across 50 states and internationally to protest Elon Musk (DOGE). We encourage everyone to join again next Saturday, March 8th, with more events planned.

I realized today that Trump, Musk, DOGE, Vance, Miller, Vought and their many collaborators have broken so many laws already that they know they have to destroy our government and entire way of life to stay out of jail. This is all or nothing. We should respond accordingly.

Spent the morning checking out apartments in Philly, with some great options to think over. Came home and made a big brunch. Snow and ice on the way, but our house is full of food and I’ve got a great book to read. Finding my happiness where I can in this mad, mad world.
