Panther was a real trooper, we would shovel the path and he would crouch down and stalk us from there. He didn't know his black fur absorbed so much light that he cast a dark aura on the snow path surrounding him, so we would see this inky spot coming before we saw actual cat.
When Shadow was a smol kitty, we got a rare snowfall that was substantial. He rushed out when I opened the front door, eager to investigate that pretty white stuff. Unlike Tabs kitty, he didn't like it, and ran right back into warmth and comfort.
“Y’all hear about how Anderson Cooper is leaving 60 Minutes in just the latest humiliating blow to Bari Weiss’s leadership?”
Unfortunately he says he’s doing it so he can “spend more time with his children” and demurring in the face of actually making a statement about CBS’s new fascist, oligarch leadership.
Anderson Cooper is popular enough that he could go solo on YouTube and be within a million subscribers in a month.
In wholly unrelated news, a streamer had to catch himself from yelping in triumph when defeating a boss in a video game with a party of all white mages (healers.) He was about to say "Yeah, white p-" and realized EXACTLY what he would it sound like if he continued that phrase. Very apologetic about it too, and used it as a moment of reflection over the role of self censorship in keeping yourself off the naughty list. (He's apolitical on his streams but left leaning in general, and really hates his home state of Florida these days.)
That speech at the European Parliament: "George C. Marshall, I am all the evidence you need that you succeeded here; you should have put some thought into your own country's fascists."
I lived in New Orleans for 4 years, and my favorite Mardi Gras was when my best friend had sprained her ankle and I had a concussion (both unrelated to the holiday) and we just hung out at home. We watched the mayor getting ripped on tv and had a nice time (mayor turns the city over to the king of one of the krewes).
Notice how Corey only gets all big and bad against women?
If that federal agent at Arlington Cemetery had been a man instead of a woman when they did their illegal photo op, he wouldn't have said boo to him let alone pushed him.
I bet that far more people, especially under about age 40, watch YouTube than CBS. When is the MSM going to figure out that pandering to trump is really bad for business?
All these legacy networks' audiences have been in free fall for years, and it's just getting worse. I'm ancient, and I haven't had cable or local channels in close to 20 years.
It's free, but I pay for YT premium because I hate the advertisements and it shuts them off. Blissful commercial-free high quality programming on demand.
It feels weird and wrong to be on the side of the not-US but trump needs to learn a lesson (ha, like that would ever happen) that he doesn't always get his way. It will be hard for him since he always has but he's no longer the great and powerful and unstoppable trump.
I can't remember the paper and the details are fuzzy, but back in the early 1900s a northern paper ran an expose of the Ku Klux Klan. To prove to doubters that the Klan truly existed wherever it was, the paper printed a membership form that the KKK were using. The intention was to expose the horrors of the Klan to normies (which I assume is the point of the Chicago magazine highlighting Nick Fuentes). It was intended to horrify and horrify it did, SOME people, and they organized against it. OTHER people took it a different way, clipped out that reprinted membership form, and sent it in to join up. The journalist ended up with regrets because he felt he had fueled the very thing he was trying to quash. When I read that 40% of young Rs are groypers, it chills me. I fear others not so steeped in politics will read that and be like, oh well I guess it's ok that's a lot of people. I don't have an answer for the problem of how to publicize dangers without fueling the other side, but this situation brought that incident to mind.
The media writes about neonazis like Fuentes the way they write about the latest shoe styles, all in the service of late capitalist profits, "love it or loath it, the open toed sandal is here to stay"
I’m surprised ICE hasn’t set up shell companies to buy the 10,000-person “processing facilities.” There might be some federal law against it, but when has legal ever stopped them.

What goes on in kitty brains
Is really hard to know
But like a fuzzy TV screen
This one is full of snow.
We're back to BIG! (things)
Kitty crunchies!
Woo Hoo, nature gave me a huge ice cream shop!
Studded paws for good grip on snow and ice!
best gif best gif best gif
Kitteh was making snowballs!!
Eating them?
Novel plan to have thousands of kittens clear heavy snow from I-80 goes predictably awry.
What could possibly go wrong??
Bring that kitty inside for cuddles!
Ukrainian hi-tech sniper and IED detector
If that cat had thumbs he would make snowballs.
I had a cat who liked to play in the snow, RIP, Boris!
Panther was a real trooper, we would shovel the path and he would crouch down and stalk us from there. He didn't know his black fur absorbed so much light that he cast a dark aura on the snow path surrounding him, so we would see this inky spot coming before we saw actual cat.
RIP, Panther.
Cheers to Boris!
Boris was a black cat, too!
They’re special friends.
Snow cat, for real.
Snow Cat needs no treads.
4 paw drive.
Whee!

"A move in the House to amend the Constitution to allow Congress to override presidential pardons now has a Republican cosponsor."
Oh thank dog! We NEED more checks on the Executive branch!
That speech at the European Parliament: "George C. Marshall, I am all the evidence you need that you succeeded here; you should have put some thought into your own country's fascists."
"Nick" Fuentes looks like he wanted to cosplay Alex deLarge in that snapshot. That was clearly beyond his powers.

Colbert is a fucking hero.
Cory is a pussy.
That is all.

Us olds do youtube also too. It is free and we can be parsimonious as well as cantakerous.

Sometimes being on the side of the US means opposing the government of the US when the government is clearly in the wrong.

Colbert is the only thing I’m watching on CBS and once he’s gone, so am I.
I do love Ghosts. 😬
Me too. It was painful to give it up but I just can't support paramount.
