Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Trump's talent pool

we appear to have four competing fascist movements jockeying for control: blood & soil nazism under miller and hegseth, darwinian ecofascism from rfk, technofascism under vance and musk, and one Big Wet Hitler who understands the true animating core of the american volk is a deep love for shopping

Military Commander Tells Troops Bombing Iran Is ‘Part Of God’s Divine Plan’ One commander had a “big grin” on his face while saying Donald Trump “has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran," a service member said.

For years I've been watching and telling people that christian nationalism/fascism in this country is the single biggest threat to our survival.

Got one piece of good news in the ocean of terrible that is current events, that cat I trapped, neutered, and got chipped was transferred from the Oakland shelter to a local animal service who can foster and find him a new home. I knew that cat was adoptable!

What's happening in Kansas is horrifying and terrifying but let's also remember that the governor did veto this bill, and it's already being challenged in court. Please don't give up hope, and remember Fred Roger's advice to 'look for the helpers' when we're feeling scared.

And ironically, none of them know that the wellness industry makes more money than 'big pharma'. Turns out being unregulated = $$$$$$$$

I wish the New York Times hated rich pedophiles as much as they hate trans kids.

He's a cutie but def needs some attention, he's clearly been fighting and isn't doing so well out there. I'm hoping to get him in for a neuter which should significantly chill him out.

The FBI Director, everyone. You paid for it.

This kind of story is why I made my partner get both a Garmin and also a massive life insurance plan.

I love this show so so much and quotes from it pop into my head often. I re-watch it every couple of years and appreciate a whole new perspective.

Really loving this piece on 'Deadwood', a show that I initially couldn't finish because of it's intensely harsh and realistic brutality but which I now see as one of the most beautiful love letters to human nature I've ever seen on screen.

In the sea of human suffering, I feel guilty sometimes spending money and time on these animals, but I can't just let them suffer. That said, once this guy is dealt with, Ham Sammitch, you're next on the snip and release list. Because I don't intend to spend the summer in his pee garden.

I hope this guy can get adopted. I spent the last 8 years feeding and caring for three yard cats. We buried Bubba a year ago, he got sick and it was going to cost over 2k to figure out what was going on. I've also spent 1.5k last year when Sekie was injured on her care and recovery.

All of the local trap and release/spay/neuter services are booked out for at least two weeks at this point, so unless I take him to the emergency clinic tomorrow and pay out of pocket, then re-release him ourdoors, animal services is my only real recourse.

That kind of behavior simply will not fly in my cat house, so after a long tussel and a lot of yowling (on both our parts) I managed to get him into a trap and will probably bring him into Oakland Animal Services tomorrow for an assessment, snip, and hopefully adoption. He's friendly enough.

But tonight I came home to an angry Sekie staring down a new interloper. A cute little striped guy who looks about 8 months old, and is pretty friendly, he came right up to me for scritches, a churru, and food. Also still has his testosterone engines, however. After he ate he started bullying her.

We went about 3 years free of feral, un-neutered cats in our yard, but for the last few weeks a big boy we're calling Ham Sandwich has been hanging around and spraying. I haven't really done much to snag him since our yard cat in residence, Queen Seckie has been able to cower him.

Probably a bit of both. Justice in this country is beyond broken.

That money is GONE also. It's in the Trump family vault.

The tragic double-down on ignorance. Sadly so typical when to face one's errors means admitting your decision nearly killed your own child.

Incredibly heartbreaking, another child suffering due to their parents distrust of science, spread intentionally by our current 'leaders'.

Wish they would invent this kind of law enforcement in the US!
