It’s true. It is, in fact, Cuddly Kitten Day. A whole day for cuddly kittens. I even found an official Cuddly Kitten Day GIF, if you can believe that.
I will not be having a cute day, because I am practically 5’9” and that would just be unseemly. But I encourage all of you to do so, if you so choose!
So, for your present this week, I got you this experimental film from 1946 titled The Private Life Of A Cat … because the internet did not invent cat videos.
I also have this extremely unsettling 1980s anti-smoking PSA from the cast of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats. Or people dressed up like the cast of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats. I see no Betty Buckley, so I can’t be sure!
It also happens to be the birthday of Chaka Khan, which I think we all agree should probably be a national holiday.
And it would have been the birthday of Ric Ocasek, except for how he passed away in 2019.

The Cat film is so enchanting. I'd already launched my new lifestyle. (lifestyle!) My new lifestyle is to watch nice things, and not to look at GOP characters acting out weird behavior. For a few days. And to stuff myself with brain-erasing novels, like mysteries. Murders where you don't really care about the victim. The beauty of those books is: this happened, this happened, this happened, this happened, cool--oh good! The End. I just thought I'd let the wonketariat know. I'll just find out if it changes anything.
That Chaka Khan vid cemented my love of Norma Kamali clothes.
