This is a very good reminder to keep your cats indoors. (Er, unless you're leashing them or keeping them on a cat patio.) I know that cats are very special little libertarians who demand their freedom to roam, but keeping them indoors keeps them and you safe. Please and thank you.

this is it. none of us are safe unless all of us are safe. and if we have the courage to adhere to that, we also have an advantage in the long run. the party that is willing to throw anyone and everyone under the bus is ultimately unsustainable.
Popular or not Dems cannot bend on the need for trans people to be treated with basic humanity and respect. If we give up that because the right made trans people unpopular, we give up everything. They’ll dice us group by group like a salami. We die on this hill or we die alone in a ditch

After the Grammys, anyone concerned about the rising levels of racism and creeping authoritarianism should rest assured that Hollywood is ready to vaguely denounce these things while reveling in obscene levels of wealth.

Hard pivot from recent Daily topics that gave me a chuckle this morning, but a very interesting listen. I’d love to explore this trend within the broader (and unfortunate) pendulum swing back to skinny heroin chic.
