One week old!

Eyes opening!

They are starting to get more fur now, and today they started opening their eyes!
My daughter asked me if I wanted one to keep when they are ready to be weaned. It will be very hard to say "no" to that! #CatsofBluesky

Momma kitty with five kittens

The kittens were a week old yesterday. They all seem to be doing well and have almost doubled in weight.
I'm amazed at how well their young mother has done with them, despite her small size and back-to-back pregnancies. #CatsofBluesky

I'm so glad I canceled my subscription. Just plain horrible now.

The look of judgment... I've seen it many times!

It is so frustrating!

*Simplify the message

Dems spend too much time responding to what Trump said or did. That consumes time that could be spent on their own message.
They need a brief response about Trump's wrongdoing and then move forward.

I worked in non-profit PR helping some orgs through major change, transition and crisis. Every employee needs to know the message. Running around in a circle doesn't move you forward.

Thank you for the work you are doing!
Keeping the message simple and direct works, but it also needs repetition. Every Dem staff person needs to know those points when responding to phone calls, etc. Every interview needs to get one of those major points across. It takes time, but it works.

They are desperate to convince people a false reality. Comparing gas prices from 2021? What dinner rolls are down 22%? And "national brand" is store brand, not name brand most likely.

Don't talk about Trump. Talk about Republicans' fawning support for Trump. #EpsteinFiles

This is spot on. I've known for some time that the Democrat messaging is bad. They appear disjointed because they can't focus on the things that unify them. They also need to simply the message and repeat it at every interview and opportunity.

Ray is very sweet and affectionate. She has been through so much. They plan to keep her (after spaying) and one of the kittens if possible. They will need to find homes for the others.

Momma kitty Ray is doing her best. She is so small! They are weighing the kittens every day to make sure they are gaining weight. #CatsofBluesky

The kitten are adorable, but it was so irresponsible for the previous owners not to spay AND to let her go outside.
My daughter and SIL are making the best of it, but it is a lot since they already having another cat and a dog. #CatsofBluesky

My daughter and SIL took on a foster cat from a co-worker. They were told she had a litter 2 months ago, and they found homes for the kittens. They were surprised to find out the cat was pregnant AGAIN, and had kittens only one week later! Poor kitty - she isn't even 2 yrs old. #CatsofBluesky

Please keep us posted. Hope she is OK.
(I have been there!)

Is that a cardboard cut out? It looks flat.

It was so "amazing" watching people die due to his incompetence and ignorance.
My father died in May '20 from Covid because Trump wanted to ignore the virus away while also grifting off of the medical supply chains.

60 Attorneys on the Year of Chaos Inside Trump’s Justice Department (Gift Article) Sixty former staffers describe an environment of suspicion and intimidation within the nation’s most powerful law enforcement agency.

Absolutely no way to read this and not conclude that the Department of Justice has been deeply corrupted. And this is from a time when career lawyers were in place, pushing back against illegality. With firings and resignations, the politicization will just get worse.

They aren't going to voluntarily release anything that hasn't been completely scrubbed.

Exactly

They want to bring in the junk healthcare policies back. Lower cost, but almost everything is out of pocket.

Yes, I agree! Unlike the current despicable occupant

Yes, Biden did focus on need, regardless of red versus blue states. I saw an analysis of the projects included at the time, and red areas received more overall.

And $2k wouldn't begin to cover an ER visit now even with insurance.

And I remember my mom complaining for months because she was charged $75 for an ambulance ride not covered by insurance - back in 1975. Even with inflation, nothing justifies the costs we have today.

Ambulance companies can charge $4k now for a simple transport. It is absurd.
I know because I saw my parents' charges, and that was 5+ years ago. Many are independent operators (not municipal.)

He wants his own Russian palace. He thinks it is "real" gold because his sycophants have told him that it is.

Before insurance, the cost for my husband's outpatient hip surgery was $55k. How far would that $2k credit go for any major hospitalization?
