A band I was in for 5 months kicked me out yesterday. This was so abrupt. We just played a show out of town and had another one coming up.
This is the 3rd time I’ve been kicked out of a band, but only the first time that it came completely out of left field like that. I didn’t see it coming at ALL.

Refusing to work with Israeli academics means refusing to work with one of the main sources of dissent within Israeli society. To be sure, their views are not uniform, but that is a reason to avoid broad based bans,

Attention WA/Seattle area!
Oscar is a 5 year old male (fixed) cat looking for a home! His owner recently passed away and my brother is looking for a new home for him. He's up to date on all his shots.
If you know anyone who is looking for a companion, let me know! Boosts are appreciated.

My 2 main nicknames for Horatio have always been Floofins and Mr. Moo. Somehow, I recently combined them and have been calling him “Mr. Moofins” lately.

These are most of the stickers I have available. If you think any of these (or cat necklaces or keychains) seem like good Halloween presents, Christmas presents, cool new things for yourself, etc. you can check them out at unicornhunterdesigns.storenvy.com

Telling moment: I was walking back from the rally, but a couple miles from it, carrying nothing but my gigantic American flag. An eight year old on his bike sees me with it and yells "No Kings!!" with absolute conviction.
My friends, they have lost the flag.

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

My band’s very first post that includes our new singer in any way, and we get a weird comment from someone who had auditioned, saying “I guess you didn’t get my audio”.
Don’t be that guy. 🙄
Once he actually hears her sing he’ll eat his words.
