“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”
Love this from Guillermo del Toro

lol now Amelia is playing with a toy mouse right in front of the new cat's closed door. I'm like, "baby she isn't ready 😆"

I don't know though... she already seems more confident than yesterday by leaps and bounds. She may want more soon. Playing it by ear.

New Kitty has seen 4 rooms of the house now. Previously she has lived in a condo and a catio. The house is an overwhelming amount of space for her, so we will add rooms slowly over the next week or two.

We did a little 30 minutes in the same room, then put New Kitty back in the guest suite. They both came from shelter/multicat room situations, so I think they'll both be fine.

Amelia has met New Kitty. She was okay with it, but her approaches were met with hisses so she accepted the social cues and just loafed while the new girl circled her.

The sheer joy new cats in my house express when they realize it’s a shotgun house and they can run through 4 rooms from front to back in one uninterrupted line is always fun

A gray cat stares up at the basketball game, amazed.
A cat is on a couch, riveted by the tv.
Oh nooo 😂 just got our second cat in a row who’d never seen TV before.
Husband, helpfully: That’s Zion… it’s ok… that’s Jalen Green

A gray cat looks happy sitting with a bunch of scratchers and toys.
This is the first time she has held still and just relaxed with us so I could get a good pic

lol no. The kids I knew in college who went there were "Dad is the CEO of something" rich. Working class private school is, like, the local $3K Catholic joint. That is a boarding school for the very wealthy.

It is repulsive to me -- morally, aesthetically, politically -- on a scale that I genuinely don't know how to describe. It's just so deeply, deeply gross, to be so filled with weakness that you abuse other, weaker people to feel better. What a horrible kind of human, to do that, to *allow* that.

I lack the words to capture it, but ... it's just endlessly remarkable to me that so many people in our society have chosen trans kis -- TRANS KIDS, the smallest, least significant, most vulnerable demographic slice you could possibly pick -- as a repository for all their fears & insecurities.

This little girl 🥰
Things are going well! She has 2 rooms and we briefly let her poke her head out and explore 2 more, but she has been in the shelter 7 out of her 10 months, so our house is an overwhelming amount of space for her. She already likes us though!

The Trump Administration can’t even impose its will on Minneapolis when the full force of the federal government was focused on it, but surely they will be able to pacify and remake Iran, a nation of 90 million people halfway around the world.

I’d rather see someone else tackle the genre of a dusty space western than just see more Firefly.
Give me something new someone who liked Firefly wants to make.
