Dear listeners,
When the days feel narrow and the noise gets loud, try a song.
Not as escape — as evidence.
Someone, somewhere, once felt this too and made something that still holds.
If hope is hiding, it often hums first.

The instrument that one would use to measure this level of failure is called a Bariometer
Bari Weiss is innovating entire new dimensions of failure. She's failing in ways hitherto unconceived of. A pioneer of failology. A faileontologist. Whole career is a Fail Mary. She's beyond the fail. The Daily Fail. She's on the quest for the Holy Fail. Making tomato and Fail Salad.

As the daughter of a Santa impersonator, as well as being a former faux-elf myself, I find this especially despicable! Someone's getting several lumps of coal upside the head.
ICE has posted a video of Santa Claus arresting immigrants. Your government is hijacking a symbol of charity to spread fear and hate. it’s up to all of us to defeat these twisted fascists.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Whenever I post about this I get snarky people replying "Who cares? What difference does it make." Well, the whole phenomenon of people not understanding what makes a breed and how rare they are is exactly what enables unethical backyard breeders to do what they do.
I would like to articulate one of the BIGGEST misconceptions about cat breed genetics by talking about the NEBELUNG!
An extremely rare breed with only SIX(6) in the whole US, and no breeders, yet one that thousands of folk online are convinced they own.
Your cat is NOT any breed, and that's okay.
