And “Peace in our time!”

Did he claim “Peace in our time!”?

I was thinking of them as the Neville Chamberlain Wing of the Democratic Party.

He is my best little buddy. I am going to miss him a lot.

A few months ago he stopped eating, and dropped from 18lbs to 9lbs. The vet found the thing inside him. She gave us some medication that got him eating again, and bought him a few more weeks, maybe a couple of months. He is interactive again, but is no longer as steady or strong as he once was.

Eventually he became 50% bigger than her, but by then he wasn't a pest anymore.

He was a playful pest for his big sister. She was a smallish cat but still bigger than him when he was a kitten.

He has been an iCat (interactive-cat) his entire life with us. Sometimes we argued over who gets to eat the food.

Jack was a rescue kitten in early 2010. When I met him and his litter he split from them and came across the room straight to me. He climbed up my (Hawaiian) shirt and went straight into my pocket. He was that small. We were able to take him home a few weeks later.

In other news about RWPIs bloviating, Curtis Yarvin has declared on Substack that he is preparing to flee the country because the T47 admin has failed utterly and the liberal retribution will be swift and merciless.

No word as to whether North Korea has responded to his appeal for asylum.

There is that one in FL that thinks it’s okay to store your TS/SCI files in the guest bathroom. But I’m not sure any others agree… maybe SCOTUS.
