You know what I miss about Twitter? When something is happening, being able to go on Twitter and find out immediately and in real time following updates. There is no replacement for that and it leaves me feeling…untethered.

and by and by Think that I am unking’d

Be safe out there today, friends. If you see anything particularly notable or experience any major issues, contact me on Signal at marisakabas.04

I should be at the protest but I am not, and I rather hate myself for that

I should go but I won’t, I’m tired of doing everything alone

I’m being watched

Shameless sprawler

I think she’s happy to be home

She is the cutest 🥰

It’s that time of year again #hillhouse

The tail placement is perfection 👍😂

Sound on for your moment of zen

100% this

This is basically how I plan to spend my whole time here, since I have the least cuddliest cats in existence

Staying off social media today (and prob tomorrow too) bc holy eff the news, so here are today’s kitten-sitting pics

Heaven

Curious kittens 😂

Jfc

Lily is definitely hiding in the bathtub in sheer terror

Cousins reunited

Just walked into the bathroom to find Lily sitting on the counter in the dark, gazing at herself in the mirror 🤔🤔🤔

Booooo it was so nice and gray and rainy and cool today and now the sun is back and blinding and I am extremely annoyed

Sweet and spicy Mina

First time I’ve seen national guard patrolling Union market

Such a little weirdo 😍😂

Attention

It’s nearly 80 degrees in DC and I hate it. But at least the Halloween decorations are excellent

Smiley kitty

My Friday night

Sunny Friday afternoon mood

Unemployed life. Can’t say I’m a fan

This morning I was still in bed and Mina was laying next to me when she reached her paw out to touch my face and proceeded to stick her claws into my cheek, so I’m not exactly happy with her right now. Lying in the middle of the floor for me to step over constantly is not helping matters

Oh nooo this is such a tragedy, I studied her work in college and have been a huge fan ever since 😢

Early morning Lily

Will it be ever thus?

Pizza monster

IDF evacuation orders now cover 79 percent of Gaza—the latest orders added the coastal quadrant of the Netzarim Corridor, but removed some little bits of Khan Younis (the vast majority of which is still under evacuation orders).

At least my cats and I prefer the same foods

Still feel like ish today so maybe yesterday’s fainting was more from already not feeling well than being purely shot-induced, which is a relief and also makes more sense, as I’ve had pretty much every vaccination known to man and never had an issue before 🤷‍♀️

Apparently my problem with passing out every time I give blood has been upgraded to passing out when I get shots 🤦‍♀️🫠🫠🫠

Will it be ever thus?

i challenge you to find cooler news today than “despite all odds against American scientific research rn, a CO researcher developed a temperature-stable, single dose rabies vaccine that works bc of particles coated in CANDY & SAPPHIRE, & it could help reduce rabies deaths in places w/o electricity”

i do not often use the phrase "comically inept" but if you are the envoy to an arab-majority country you should probably be aware of a little word called "islam"

I love the wiggle as she walks up to be pet 🥰

Kitten-sitting for these two fluffy little cumulus clouds

These two are coming with me to cat-sit for my sister’s kittens so…we’ll see how that goes 😟 They are scared of everything and absolutely do not handle change well

I probably shouldn’t laugh at things like this, right?

The Thai cultural festival on the Mall is making me mad homesick for Thailand 😩

This man will not be fired for calling for the murder of American citizens, yet multiple journalists/reporters/teachers lost their job for accurately reporting things Charlie Kirk actually said and stood for. But it’s the “violent left” that’s the problem
