Just another childless cat lady living a fulfilling life. I have an awesome partner, our furbabies - 2 black cats and a Rottweiler, a rewarding career that I'm proud of, and I'm a proud lefty feminist trying to live by "do no harm, but take no shit"

A friend of mine sent this to me and I am all for it. Like with Pence, you want that much up in my business then be careful what you wish for - this administration can hear all about the joys of perimenopause now!

On a much happier note, Happy 2nd anniversary of their gotcha day to Leo & Sir Purrsalot! These mini-panthers have brought such love & joy. Two of the best decisions I've ever made even if Leo has since made it clear he loves my partner more than me, maybe I go overboard with the smooches sometimes.

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

Insurance won't cover a med I've been on awhile. It took my endocrinologist & NP advocating for what seemed like forever to get approved in the first place. Finally one that upsets my digestive system the least, if you've ever taken anything w/metformin then you know, & now start all over again. 1/4

America's first gender neutral bathroom was Rush Limbaugh's gravesite.

This sweet girl's been through a lot over the past year. First her mom went to the hospital followed by memory care, but all poor Maizie knew is that she didn't come home. Now her dad went to the hospital followed by rehab, but all poor Maizie knows is he hasn't come home yet either 1/2

With my mom in memory care and my dad now at the same facility but for OT/PT following a hospital visit, we brought Maizie to stay with us. Intros with Baby are going pretty well, taking things slow though. The boys, well, Leo's face says it all. It's about as representative of 2025 as it gets too.

I think the election taught us a couple things: a) Bernie is right (see below) & has been right for a long time; & b) there are far more racists and misogynists in this country than we realized, some even within the party (omg shocking!). But by all means use anyone pro-Palestinian as a scapegoat.

We must resist fascism, now and forever

Call me crazy, but perhaps an attorney general shouldn't keep having disciplinary charges. Just a thought.

First an eagle hanging around, now deer? I'm not used to seeing them in the city, but it was pretty cool. I hope they stay safe and out of traffic.

6-year-old Hind Rajab dreamed of becoming a dentist. She was one of more than 17,000 kids Israel killed in Gaza in 15 months.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Following up my last post with some positives: my partner printed & painted Lady of Pain for my zen garden on my desk at work & she matches perfectly! Saw the eagle that hangs out outside of work (hard to get a good pic with phone though) & quite pleased with the David Lynch quote for my whiteboard.

Besides the obvious terrible shit happening nationally & statewide, I have an ear infection, quickly regretting picking up my Dexcom (no, no I don't really want to know what my blood sugar is doing every 5 mins), fell next to my driveway this morning mostly on my shoulder, & work was a clusterfuck.

Civil rights lawyers, bleeding from the ears: This executive order is blatantly unconstitutional! DoJ goons: Which part Civil rights lawyers, shooting red lasers from their eyes: ALL OF IT DoJ goons: which part of the constitution Civil rights lawyers, levitating 45' feet in the air: ALL OF IT

👍

Damn, that's a good one!

Please watch this entire video. We need to focus on the positive future we want and not just react.

WHO DID THIS!

Palate cleanser for all the terrible shit this week. Adopting littermates is the best and we're a month away from their 2 year gotcha day anniversary 🥰

Not all heroes wear capes. Real heroes practice what they preach and what they preach is love and compassion.

Brilliant.

There are legitimate critiques of AOC on this or that issue from the left. But really, if there were 100 more representatives like her in Congress, we’d be living in a very different country. She represents what the Democratic Party must become.

Elon Musk did a Hitler-adjacent salute at a Trump rally, and the ADL rushed to defend him, calling it “an awkward moment of enthusiasm.” This is the same ADL whose CEO called tweeting “Free Palestine” at him antisemitic in 2023. Cartoon by @LatuffCartoons

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

We should’ve deported that Nazi fucker (Musk) when we had the chance.

RESIST. Don't quit. Don't stop fighting. Don't obey in advance. Don't stop calling them out. Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can. Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone. Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight. RESIST.
