Little man had a great time with his temporary fosters and they want to watch him again when we're gone around Christmas. He's just settled into my lap and I'm so happy to have his snuggles again

Finally got to sit down and work on the super mega crossword. Made myself stop about halfway through

Delaware, get out there and adopt Evander!

Does anyone want a survivorship bias shortbread

New Yorkers BLOCK ICE from leaving their parking garage ahead of a flopped mass raid attempt on Canal Street

We drove home a day early to miss the weekend storm, and it feels so weird to be home without a cat. We scheduled pick-up at the shelter for tomorrow, because we were planning on driving home today. I can't wait to hear how the foster boy was with his temporary friends

The Hague. No exaggeration. No hyperbole. Locked up forever.

I got to spend about ten minutes working on it with Michael before I was told I had to stop or I'd finish it too fast

My parents are working on the NYT mega crossword together in the other room and listening in is pretty fun. The clues are smaller than usual and they keep misreading the clue number and running into issues

My husband's family has a pecan farm that's over a century old. There's no way we're having a holiday without him needing to make a pecan pie. I can't even get him to compromise on a chocolate pecan pie. The real thing or nothing!

out here in Bluey pajamas against ICE. I have those same pajama pants, fyi

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

"The teen was originally charged with failure to seek assistance and obstruction of justice in the death of her newborn." BUT WHO IS CHARGING HER RAPIST???? THIS CHILD IS A VICTIM AND NEEDS CARE FOR HER TRAUMA, NOT PROSECUTION. www.13abc.com/2025/11/24/1...

This feels unfairly targeted at me with my giant face muscles causing migraine

The lighting in my parents bathroom is maybe a bit too good. I'd never seen that my corrugator muscles, some of the culprits that cause my migraine attacks, are hypertrophic and visible. Apparently I'm part Klingon 😂

Truly a favorite, go grabby grabby and jam it in your ears

MS NOW confirms: The FBI is working with Capitol Police to schedule interviews with the six Democratic lawmakers who urged service members to refuse to comply with illegal orders.

In America they arrest you if you tell someone else not to commit a crime

I think it’s time to put this one back out into the ether, friends Come and learn about how the tropes undergirding anti-Jewish hatred and conspiracy theories as they exist today came to be…

This is lengthy, but so important. In the last couple of years, I’ve seen a lot of the things that the graphic at the end has under “covert antisemitism” coming from people who I think don’t realize what they’re doing.

Every time I visit my parents and go to the grocery store I'm reminded of how much better Hy-Vee is than Kroger or Meijer

It wasn’t a peace plan. It was a surrender plan.

Given the way that the term antisemitism has been corrupted and denatured by the right (and the left frankly) to meet their own ends I’m considering replacing the term in my own vernacular with anti-Jewish.

YOU COME FOR ME LIKE THIS ON MY OWN FEED?!? *attempts to close cupboard over mountain of rustic pottery*

Welp, we've been at my parents house for one hour and their dog has nipped me and Michael

My neighbor just called because her parents found a cat locked in a crate in a parking lot and needed advice on a shelter who can take her. I'm glad to be keyed into the local rescue community so I could point her in the right direction and get this poor kitty taken care of

My right thumb's CMC and MCP joints have become incredibly painful just in time for a 450 mile drive tomorrow. I'm hoping it'll calm down a bit by tomorrow morning so Michael doesn't have to do the vast majority of the drive

I'm to glad diet coke with lime is back

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Exeter have found that getting vaccinated against shingles- a painful and debilitating condition that can flare up years after infection from varicella zoster virus- not only LOWERS the risk of infection, but can also PROTECT against Alzheimer’s disease!

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

Temporary foster lined up! I'm so happy he doesn't have to go back to the shelter and instead gets to make more friends next week

I'm waiting for the scheduling and checkout lady to be back from lunch at the dentist and two ladies are going through all their ringtones. I'm going to be so happy when I can get out of here

Hey Bluesky peeps, could you help spread the word? My Shirley Jackson Award-nominated gothic fiction book THE ATROCITIES is on sale today for $1.99 on Kindle. I have no idea how long this sale will last. www.amazon.com/Atrocities-J...

your daily reminder that christians are so suggestible they became homophobic by accident

So no changes to the screenshots but I went on Walmart and saw how much it would cost me to get what my family normally eats for Thanksgiving but just for me so not too expensive but still more money than I have. Only PayPal works right now. PayPal.me/AugustMcMullen

This Transgender Awareness Week, please be “aware” of a trans disabled man in Utah who would like to eat Thanksgiving dinner:

all I need to know about AI is it ruined animal videos for the entire internet

www.hshv.org/adopt/detail/ Jasper's new photos have gone up in his profile! If you live near Ann Arbor and are interested in having one cat who is playful and will snuggle with you every day, reach out to @hshv.bsky.social. He's such a sweet boy and he deserves a permanent home

You mean the company that's currently being struck by its workers and the company that's currently being boycotted because of its terrible DEI policy rollbacks? Why not just call this the Chocolate Mint Racist Scab Frostie?

I'm so sad that my bestest boy is probably going to have to go back to the shelter for a week while I travel for Thanksgiving. I guess a slightly spicy cat with FeLV might be a big ask for some temporary fosters, but he's truly the sweetest boy.

The good: I start my new W4 tomorrow. The bad: My new gig pays *monthly* at the end of each month and I'm starting at the beginning of the period, so I wont get paid until New Years. There's 12% or $8407 left to close out this ENTIRE campaign. I REALLY need a hand to hold onto the gig.

A whale caught in crab nets is fighting for her life on the Oregon Coast near Yachats, with so many people rushing there before official help arrives at dawn. The whale is vocalizing distress, asking for help. It's devastating. We have to find a way to stop entanglements. Unconscionable.

i am so sad about the beached whale in yachats :( as of an hour ago it's still alive. there's a billion people down there in wetsuits doing a bucket brigade, they've got coffee and food donated. the marine biologist can get there in 2 hours but high tide isn't until 9. hang on big buddy!

no notes

This dude is such a bad eater that the most consistent way to actually get him to eat his wet food is to give him a churu and then sneak his canned food under his nose right as he finishes his churu
