Trump said he’s confident that Russian President Vladimir Putin would respect a ceasefire due to his relationship with him, adding, β€œPutin went through a hell of a lot with me.”

I'm sorry, what now?

Follow the food bowl.

Follow the food bowl.

We’ve spent the last 2 days modifying her eating and medicine schedules so she doesn’t associate meal time with getting meds. We’ve also allowed her a few β€œforbidden favorite foods” (vet approved!) to get her back to looking forward to dinner time. So far it’s working. See for yourself. πŸ˜‚

Today we celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Make a career of humanity. Commit yourself to the noble struggle for equal rights. You will make a better person of yourself, a greater nation of your country, and a finer world to live in."

Some ideas about how to resist creeping authoritarianism:
- find joy in your community
- engage in mutual aid
- be sure to get enough sleep, water, and calories
- move your body in ways that please you
- support independent media and artists (and make your own!)
- use cynicism sparingly
- pets

Opinion | Libraries can help end the culture wars. That’s why they’re under fire. Nothing threatens authoritarianism like a free, quiet place to absorb a full range of information.

We are about to enter an era of extreme and dangerous culture war in the United States. How do we protect our communities and work toward a cultural ceasefire? In this piece I wrote a couple months ago, I offer one possible path. wapo.st/40q1BDn

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand.
