THREAD.

3 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he had been living, in rural Cornwall, and decided he wanted to live with us instead.

We decided to call him Jim.

This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st, 2022.

I'm not so easily shocked these days, but it might actually be shocking that the vice president of the United States is as violently, smugly, publicly racist as he is.

Devastated to hear about James Ransone. Such a brave and gifted performer who inspired so much loyalty from his collaborators. Sending love to all his friends and family, what a loss. 💔

A real treat to watch a male Lyrebird perform at the Healesville Sanctuary yesterday. Truly magnificent.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.

His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."

He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.

Rob Reiner and his work as actor, producer, filmmaker, and activist has been in our lives since the early 70s. His influence and impact was ever present.

His life in pictures can be found here: www.theguardian.com/film/gallery...

What a tragic loss.

Two victims of previous school shootings — Mia Tretta, who was shot in the stomach in 2019 at Saugus High School, and Zoe Weissman, who survived the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School — are now at Brown. Gun violence is out of control in this country.

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Lebanese Muslim who owns a Sydney fruit shop, risked his life to disarm one of the Bondi Beach shooters.

His courage gives me hope amidst the horror and darkness. Muslims and Jews are not enemies. Our futures, in the Middle East and beyond, are intrinsically bound.

A true hero.

11 people in Australia were killed today by gunmen while they celebrated the first night of Chanukah at Sydney’s Bondi Beach. Targeted because they were Jews.

As Jewish families around the world, we place our menorahs in our windows. Our message to the world: Light will outlive the darkness.

I carry a kit with a field tourniquet and wound-packing material in my work backpack, and mentally map out shelter / escape options for every classroom I'm teaching in at the start of the semester. I was still a grad student when I resigned myself to sacrificing myself to protect my students.

My niece Erin was the teacher killed last December in the Madison school shooting.

You all are already underpaid, overworked and under appreciated and now you have to worry about this preventable threat daily.

Teachers are the bravest and most selfless souls and I admire you all profoundly.

Powerful, quiet, devastating anger. Wow
I genuinely don't know if this is a "Minnesotan" thing or an "old guy of a certain age" thing but in case it's Minnesotan and people need an anger translator: this guy is so angry he could just about set something on fire with his mind.
