Resuming my #challenge to identify one #positive thing each day… A rat has been trained to detect landmines & found 109 so far! #Rats are misunderstood and highly intelligent. Hopefully some positive PR will improve their image #goodnews #notallheroeswearcapes #savinglives #animalhero

Turn out I’m a blue reader. Pretty accurate

I’m frustrated a migraine prevented me from protesting. But the videos and photos give me hope. Thank you to everyone that came out, especially in red states. I know how hard it is to live in MAGA country. Hats off to you all! A few pics of my favorite signs #resist #handsoff

Resuming my #challenge to identify one #positive thing each day… Today I saw the first butterfly of the year. It’s a small win, but I’ll take it. #simplejoy #nature #beauty

Resuming my #challenge to identify one #positive thing each day… Today I scored tickets to see #Garbage in October. Shirley Manson is my own personal Goddess

#Resistance is exhausting. So rest, then #fight again

Resuming my #challenge to identify one #positive thing each day… Figaro burrowed under my covers to cuddle this morning. We were both so cozy and happy. Consequently I was a bit late to work #catsofbluesky #petsofbluesky #cats #selfcare

Purcy has excellent catouflage. You never saw him… #catsofbluesky #cats #pets #gingercats

Fed up with Meta? Avoiding Instagram or Facebook isn’t enough to stop Meta from harvesting and profiting from your private information. Here’s how to limit Meta’s ability to monetize your personal data.

Hard to believe this was last weekend. Especially since we didn’t get any snow in December #oregon #spring #winter

Purcy & Figaro love to cuddle together. And those faces make my heart incredibly happy 🐈🧡 #catsofbluesky #cats #gingercats #pets

As if I haven’t been depressed enough with the state of the world, now I’ve been sick for a week with no recovery insight. At least I’ve finished 4 #books! 2 Poldark novels by Winston Graham Born a Crime by Trevor Noah Elizabeth & Margaret by Andrew Morton 💙📚

"The AVMA never recommends raw diets for dogs or cats because of the risk of multiple pathogens..." and the spread of H5N1 makes raw feeding riskier than ever. "The strain that’s currently circulating has a near 90 percent case fatality rate in domestic cats” www.popsci.com/health/how-t...

If you love cats, animation, movies with heart, or films that aren’t another remake/sequel, watch Flow. It’s a beautiful movie but it may make you cry. I promise the cat survives. It’s streaming on HBO Max or available to rent on Amazon. #CatsOfBlueSky #animals #movies #animation #cats #animallover

#Portland is so beautifully eccentric. I really wanted to go to the show, but the tickets are sold out 😭 #Startrek #Starwars #burlesque #drag #pdx #oregon

Democrats keep emailing me asking for donations. As a life long Dem, I want to help. But I need you all to start acting as ruthless as the enemy. Break down doors instead of asking to be let in Be more like Rep Al Green! #fight #bluecrew #democrats #deptofeducation

Consulted several vintage globes. Not a single one had a Gulf of America. Get fucked #trump and #google. #resist #fucktrump #gulfofmexico

I was left unattended in Powell’s City of Books for 3 hours. I can’t be held responsible for my actions 💙📚 #booksky #books #portland #pdx

I have a joke about trickle-down economics. But 99.9% of you will never get it!

We just want to remind you: You’re not alone. We’re all in this together, and we’ll get through it together. We’ve seen so many people sharing their feelings of anxiety and stress—please take a moment for yourself. Your well-being matters. Sending you hugs—you are amazing, and we love you all! 💚

Working on changing this trend. If I don’t prioritize myself, nobody else will.

Continuing my #challenge to identify one #positive thing each day Today was unseasonably warm, so I took a long walk. Enjoyed the beautiful neighborhood I’m lucky to call home. Lots of huge trees and open spaces. I also love that the local kids still ride bikes with friends #bendoregon #bend
