Midnight tater tots? Midnight tater tots.

Throwback essay from 2021. "In 1980, a psychiatric nurse at Chicago's Michael Reese Hospital (and mother of two) divorced her husband in the midst of a particularly troubled married life and decided to pursue her lifelong dream of an acting career." charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/ageism-and...

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.

EVERYONE, stop what you're doing and look at Nigel. 😍

Donny, stop trying to make Nobel happen. It's not going to happen.

I know this is a cat account, but I also know a lot of you are animal lovers in general so I have a sincere request for help. A horse at a farm sanctuary near us had a health crisis over the weekend and they could really use help with the vet bills. 1/2 donorbox.org/mmfs-vet

I feel safer on a road with a newly-minted 16-year-old driver.

Time for some real talk: @thexylom.com, the only Asian American-run news outlet covering science, climate, and the environment, will run out of funding in July if we don't secure $7,500 by the end of the month. I might lose my job at a time while waiting for a visa extension -- a nightmare scenario.

It's the guy's hysterical laughter as his life jacket deploys that killed me.

I can't believe I've never seen this vid (made 7 years ago). So good.

The climate and biodiversity costs to opening up roadless areas are astronomical. The roadless rule protects over half of Tongass National Forest, which is home to over 400 species of wildlife and stores more than 10% of the carbon accumulated by all national forests across the US.

I don’t know if Earth is the only place in the universe with sentient life or not. Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. But if it is, how fucking pathetic is humanity not cherish our extraordinary and finite existence in the vastness of infinity.

Incredible proposed attack on humans, animals, and our country’s last wild places wapo.st/3T8gMxY

This was really good.

Ahhh, shit. Jerry got me.

Holy shit. Going to add this my Arizona heat nightmares.

OMG. 😂

Wake up nerds, the first images from the Rubin Observatory just dropped! Rubin’s specialty: a wide field of view and speed. This gorgeous image of the Trifid and Lagoon Nebulae combines 678 exposures taken in 7 hours. 📸: RubinObs/NOIRLab/SLAC/NSF/DOE/AURA

Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

It’s that time of the year where you look forward to the week ahead because the temps are only going to be in the upper 90s. 🫠

U.S. Marine sons:

NYC friends: this poor dog was almost on his freedom ride out of the pound when his foster didn't show up on him. He's now in danger of being put down. Do you have space in your home and heart to adopt him? ❤️ Also, lots of animals at this NYC shelter who need a home. nycacc.app#/browse/225834

Did we mention we have kittens? The Flower Bunch kittens are ready to start looking for their forever homes. They each have a pal among their siblings & we’d prefer to place them as pairs because kittens do best with a same-age playmate. Located Elkton, MD. Apply at crits4cats.petfinder.com

June is #adoptacatmonth – and what better occasion to consider adding a new furry friend to the family? #blackcats like our sweet boy Jax are often overlooked in shelters and sanctuaries, but they have so much love to give! 🐈‍⬛💕 #blackcatsarethebest #eldoradohillsca #fatkittycity

I guess Ivan likes his treat 😂

I am begging people not to look to the NYT for coverage of what's happening. The BBC, Le Monde, Ajazeera and others will have more truthful coverage.

“tHeY cAnT dO tHat!!!!!” ok well they are babe, idk what to tell you

Were the bombs spray painted with the Palantir and Coinbase logos?

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

Harvard hired a researcher to uncover its ties to slavery. He says the results cost him his job: ‘We found too many slaves’

Just finished The Ballad of Wallis Island and am wondering if Tim Key (Charles) is basically the British Zach Galifianakis.

Watching this man try to get rid of imaginary raccoons he thought were invading reminds me of what white people are currently doing to America to get rid if immigrants they think are invading

Just want to remind Californians that when your kid is in/about to be in 4th grade, there's a free state park pass for you and your family for a year. Great mission to see as many as you can. www.parks.ca.gov/AdventurePas...

When pet owners make the heartbreaking choice to surrender an animal for economic reasons, MaxFund Animal Shelter in Denver gives them a second chance through low-cost vet care. I’ll match the next fifty $5 donations to support their work: checkout.square.site/merchant/CEF...
