My mother in law has a dog, and then took in two stray cats. The one cat, Toto, LOVES that dog. I mean, I always thought our cat was FOND of our dog, but also thought she was kind of stupid. Cat clearly missed dog when she died. But my god, Toto and the dog--and the dog just mainly sleeps a lot and is really calm. Toto will go after her like these snugglers and lick Dog's ears and paws and kind of pet her and then curl up next to the dog.
I never heard Toto meow or anything until my husband and his mom took the dog to the vet and I slept in, and then Toto started HURLING at the door and crying like crazy--"Where's my DOG?"
I think there os a provision right in Proposition 50 that it only goes into effect if the Texas gerrymander goes into effect. So this may not be an issue. But I could be wring. I'm not perfect.
Fuck every one of those cruel hypocrite dickholes who legislate against the bodily autonomy of women and call themselves “pro-life”. May they be ravaged by gut-eating parasites
Feeling shirty this morning, going to give people the reports they ask for rather than the reports they want. I hope you were looking for 300+ columns and a little over a million rows of mostly NULL values, marketing person.
Bondi had put out a press release shortly before the one you see at the link in which she crows about how victimized the victim was by "Trump haters." Same link, completely different story. Bondi's bullshit was simply disappeared with no trace.
"The charges and allegations contained in the complaint are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty."
I know a person who as an undergrad worked in a laboratory at a highly regarded Eastern university, which sounds a little like "Haverford", but isn't.
At one point Jeffrey Epstein himself toured the lab, apparently because he was being hit up for donations or something. She reports that he had a couple of young Russian women in tow, maybe 18-ish, and that the vibe was deeply creepy.
My informant is, in my opinion, about 110 per cent reliable.
I opined on a FB comment thread that Summers was most likely "deeply ashamed" because he got caught, but added a disclaimer that I don't know Larry Summers and couldn't really be sure.
A highly-connected friend replied that he actually DOES know Larry Summers, and that in his opinion, I was exactly right about that.
That preeclampsia story really hits home for me as my wife developed it during her second pregnancy which was already complicated by an extremely rare twin pregnancy where one twin was healthy and the other was a molar pregnancy. Couldn’t remove one without the other.
She went in for a checkup at 19 weeks (we were trying to make it to at least 30) and her labs were all through the roof.
Watched her go south in 6 hours while in the hospital and the abortion was done just in time but it was touch and go.
With the current laws she’d be dead and we all know it.
Since then we had a healthy set of twins that are now teenagers.
Not sure how it’s pro life that now she would be gone, the twins would never have been born, her first child wouldn’t have a mother and I would be a widower.
Funny thing is the whole thing is the opposite of someone wanting to abort a child. My wife risked cancer keeping the molar pregnancy. They are usually removed immediately to avoid spread to other areas, which it did. But the other twin was still healthy. We knew at 10 weeks and decided not to abort and take the risk so we might have a long shot of the other child surviving and being healthy. Seems pretty pro-baby to me which is what these people say they are.
Problem is 99% of these fools have zero idea about why late term abortions really happen. They are almost all tragic stories like this.
These stories need to be told far and wide. It's not that they'll change these assholes in Texas and elsewhere's minds, it's that too many people who have gone through both these kinds of near-misses and actual deaths think they are the rare tragedy. Knowing how often such medical crises occur helps shore up the fighting spirit of those who would preemptively prevent and minimize the tragedies in the first place.
A good boss hires people who are smarter than him, and then makes sure to stay out of their way unless needed. No one will ever accuse Prez Don Snoreleone of being a good boss. He is quite simply incapable of allowing a person smarter than him to work near him.
My guess is she was on the phone with him constantly during this fiasco and every mistake she made was something he actually ordered her to do.
(The whole bait-n-switch indictment paperwork clusterfuck has his fingerprints all over it. She’ll have to take the fall for it but I promise you he told her to do this because “bait-n-switch always works, trust me.”)
it's been a while, but the basilica of san clemente (?) is amazing. you walk down thru roman history starting in like 12th c (?) and end up in a temple of mithras.
It’s time for a nice snuggle sesh (gif info: https://martiniambassador.substack.com/p/lessons-in-face-biting )

BEEEEEG KITTEH!
Cats are cats no matter what the size.
For some cats gentle mouthing
Is something that they do
To express affection
And bond with me and you
But if they get fed up with you
And decide to quit
Showing such affection
You might just get "love bit".
Murder kittehs!
Baby keeps Momma busy!
Puuuu𝘔𝘈!
Feline affection, nothing like it, there's no substitute
The gif brought this to mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0BUsDf0dxY
One of my faves!
(Boston accent) Whatever, Pumer
pumah

I think we’ve adopted one of those. I got bit (not HARD) on the nipple the other day. I was not happy.
sharp little teeth!
KItten love nibbles.
With just a bit of gnawing thrown in for funsies.
This is the cat gif I needed this morning.
And they called it kitteh love 🎶🎶

"New backward B just dropped."

In honor of Stephen Miller and Donald Trump, I think I'm going to watch Sisu this weekend.
From the DoJ document:
"The charges and allegations contained in the complaint are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty."
Pardon me if I express doubt.
“Zip ties near me” is almost poetry.
Another repeat:
I know a person who as an undergrad worked in a laboratory at a highly regarded Eastern university, which sounds a little like "Haverford", but isn't.
At one point Jeffrey Epstein himself toured the lab, apparently because he was being hit up for donations or something. She reports that he had a couple of young Russian women in tow, maybe 18-ish, and that the vibe was deeply creepy.

Repeat comment re Larry Summers:
I opined on a FB comment thread that Summers was most likely "deeply ashamed" because he got caught, but added a disclaimer that I don't know Larry Summers and couldn't really be sure.

Tab's with Coffee ☕ in the Morning 💯👍
Texas Republicans hate women (and girls). They not only knew there would be deaths and planned for them - they looked forward to it. Change my mind.

Gods will and all right? Fuck these ghouls.
TIL. I am sorry you had to go through this.
I so understand. I developed preeclampsia with our 3rd kiddo. We were lucky that I was at 34 weeks so she was just very tiny.
That must have been so horribly difficult!!! I can scarcely imagine. Glad you have those twins now!

I hadn't thought about ICE membership as a handy way to get away with child rape. But, it makes perfect sense.
Stupid Trump! Always making the same mistake and always getting the same results!
I hope the fiasco of Ms. Halligen (Esq.?) fouling up the Comey indictment from the Grand Jury finally teaches him something he never has learned.
When hiring help you look for and hire THE WINNERS of the beauty pageants. You don't settle for second and first runners-up.
And Miss Congeniality? Do I have to say it?
"finally teaches him something"
Hahahahaha nope
A good boss hires people who are smarter than him, and then makes sure to stay out of their way unless needed. No one will ever accuse Prez Don Snoreleone of being a good boss. He is quite simply incapable of allowing a person smarter than him to work near him.
He also micromanages his employees.

We are going to Rome in June. Let me know about any hidden gems i.e. food
it's been a while, but the basilica of san clemente (?) is amazing. you walk down thru roman history starting in like 12th c (?) and end up in a temple of mithras.
pure theatre. HISTORY theatre.
The Pantheon is my favorite building in the whole world. See it on a sunny day.
We have two days pre cruise. Hoping for good weather 🤞
