A resplendent golden retriever looking askance while melting into his bed.

Don’t let his melting expression deceive you. Axel is still getting lots of love and attention and he is still our Best Boy.

(Sadie, loafing in the back, doesn’t like cameras, and is not a fan of the cat smell, but is business as usual.)

Me with a bitty kitty on my shoulder.

At the vet with my shoulder familiar.

Me being smooched by the kitten

She also gives kisses.

A torbie kitten completely asleep

Somebody fell asleep on me.

I protest, in the sincerity of love and honest kindness.

Axel says: I want a cookie too.

A golden retriever looking pleadingly at the picture taker, head rested on a knit blanket

Axel doesn’t like when I roll out the suitcase. 💔

...it would probably do a better job tbh

You won’t regret being kind.

Even if no one notices.

Even if it’s hard.

You’ll still know you did the right thing.

What a sweet Golden face!! Penelope says hi

I've been thinking a lot about bravery lately, and how our culture, especially Western culture, has co-opted it being immense, sweeping, self-sacrificing, when indeed, at its most powerful it's the smallest moments.

Which is the point, right? Convince people small things don't matter.

Love this meme!

Hi Ms Lundoff I have been trying to reach you about a book order, but don't know how to DM.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.

The show must go on.

BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers:

Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users.

That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...

Everyone knows this is true; it's not a secret in any way. But it's in violation of a number of regulations, and a LOT of times the company will just give up and pay the bill rather than handing you proof they're violating the regs. It's a tactic that has worked for me many, many times.

This is, she says, a wildly successful tactic, because if the insurance company answers them honestly, it gives you evidence that the "doctors" making these determinations are practicing medicine out of scope, without proper licensing and qualifications, in areas they are not competent in.

4) the aggregate rate at which similar treatments are denied vs approved by the specific doctor being used for peer review.

You are not entitled by law to *all* of these things in most states, but you're entitled to some of them, and you can always ask for them.

2) copies of all materials they relied on to make their determination;
3) proof the doctor making the determination has maintained registration in your specific state and documentation of their meeting all their continuing education requirements;

To everyone in a similar scenario: the tactic my doctor's office has taught me is to ask, in writing, for:
1) the name, board specialty, and license number of the doctor making the determination the treatment was not medically necessary;

RT only if you are NOT becoming more conservative as you grow older.

An old, open book with “Queen of None is now available on NetGalley” on one page and the cover of Queen of None on the other. The book cover features the title and a blonde woman holding a sword.

Would love video capabilities on here soon. Anyway…

For those of you book reviewers who might enjoy an Arthurian feminist retelling with romance, vengeance, and intrigue. 🏰 ⚔️ ✨

Kirkus called it “A captivating look at the intriguing figures in King Arthur’s golden realm.”

slay the princess is a narrative soulslike

i will not be elaborating.
