Yoshi is actually being really good with the kittens; he remains fascinated with them. He's been staring at Bobby like this for a while

Ah yes, Naomi Wolf, known far and wide for her accurate interpretation of texts and for not letting her priors shape her analyses.
Tweet from Naomi Wolf on X, The Everything Site, that reads: I got pretty far along in the hiring process for a wonderful position teaching at a NY state university before a dean in the department told me I couldn't go any further because I was white. Quoting Colin Wright, @SwipeWright. I experienced all of this firsthand, having entered graduate school in 2013. By 2020, I watched non-white colleagues with CVs a tiny fraction as strong as mine absolutely swamped with interview requests and job offers, while I could... Show more

I mean aren't we sufficiently educated about what happens in this situation?

Finished up all the remaining work from this semester and my planning for the spring today. Celebrating with a big honkin bowl of seafood ramen, and here, at this table at Ru-San's right now, all is well.

"good and decent people," huh?
Reagan was known to frequently make homophobic jokes, or mockingly act in an effeminate way to get a laugh.[12] In October 1986, Bob Woodward reported in the Washington Post on an exchange between Reagan and Secretary of State George Shultz which appeared to make light of the AIDS crisis. During a national security meeting, Reagan noted Muammar Gaddafi's eccentric wardrobe and joked, "Why not invite Gaddafi to San Francisco, he likes to dress up so much?"[i] Schultz responded, "Why don't we give him AIDS!" to laughter.[98][99] The City of San Francisco demanded an apology after the printing of these comments, to both the city and victims of AIDS.[98]

That thread got longer than I thought it would. Sorry. I had a gummy and here we are.
Here's a cat picture to make up for the inconvenience:

Charlotte's going to get very cold (by local standards) in the next 24 hours. In related news, this is the first winter since I moved here from Iowa where I'm definitely feeling the cold more like a North Carolinian than an upper-midwesterner.
The hourly weather forecast for Charlotte over the next day. The temperature graph starts at 46 degrees overnight tonight but goes down to 18 by tomorrow night at 10.

There are two (2) new kittens who've arrived at the house and Yoshi is at the door in case more appear. (I would post kitty pics but they're underneath a bed upstairs, and they're black cats, so photo conditions wouldn't be ideal 😄).
