You have to open the post I’m quoting to see what this is in reference to but nothing about rabies is cute. It has a 100% mortality rate. Do not tee-hee over rabid animals thinking they can bite your pet through glass—get your pet AWAY from a situation that might end in “whoopsie!” IT IS NOT CUTE.

Regardless of fox’s actual rabies status. This is your reminder vaccinate for rabies. Always. Even if indoor only. The ONLY way to test for rabies is euthanize the animal and remove brain tissue. There is no live test for rabies and your state/local health department will not play

You can search by zip code and a lot of places have wish lists set up on Chewy so you’ll be able to see exactly what they need and have it sent direct to them. Couldn’t be easier.

You can do either a one time payment or if you set up a smaller monthly donation, it will add up to more over time and who on earth knows how long this will go on for.

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets. no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

My last remaining brain cell:

Portland City Council will consider an amendment next week to redirect $4.3 million from the city program that sweeps homeless encampments. If passed, the budget adjustment will instead invest $2 million in rent and food assistance, and support for immigrants and refugees.

here's something cool: the son of the letter carrier on Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood (McFeely) is a real letter carrier for the USPS and he's our letter carrier and he's awesome

As a woman I’ll be ruining one new thing a day until my demands are met

Still thinking about how there's a nonzero chance Sabrina Carpenter is Mamdani's Jeri Ryan ew.com/sabrina-carp...

Apparently the Friend ads have arrived in Chicago and the people know: AI is not your friend.

A big part of the right’s reaction to Mamdani’s victory is the idea that “mass migration” has transformed NYC and threatens to transform America. But if foreigners are ruining America, then women, whose tender disposition favors so much immigration to begin with, are accomplices in that ruination.

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

Enthusiasm level update: the woman handing out Cuomo flyers on the corner said “you can just throw it away if you want”

Damn, even the cat voting?

Respond with the same actor as a hero and villain.

“I could smell the onions and the mustard.”

Look if anybody’s ever been victimized by a sandwich while they were wearing a bulletproof vest & armed, you know. That’s not an experience you ever forget or forgive. The night terrors. The shakes you catch in the day. The flashbacks to the scent of onions & mustard assaulting you.

Considering the recent wave of nostalgic movie documentaries, it blows my mind that nobody has made one about the Sherman Oaks Galleria, aka The Mall In Every 80s Movie. Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Night of the Comet, Commando, Phantom of the Mall, Innerspace, Chopping Mall, Terminator 2 etc...

Did someone say Novellavember?! We love the novella format and have a ton of variety in our novella catalog. From body horror, demons, and vampires, to weird literary, westerns, and sci-fi titles. Not to mention our KVHS titles! Happy Novellavember to those who celebrate!

RIP Adam Greenberg He was the superb cinematographer who shot Near Dark (watch it!), Terminator 2: Judgment Day and, of course, The Terminator, which means he’s responsible for one of my favourite shots in cinema that also coined a new genre for its film:

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.
