The defining lesson of this first year of Trump authoritarianism is that kowtowing & capitulating yields zero permanent benefit and only emboldens the admin to come after you more.

This critical lesson was first documented in the landmark political science treatise β€œIf You Give a Mouse a Cookie.”

#RecipeOfTheDay takes 3 ingredients – lemon sorbet, vodka and Prosecco – and combines them to make the cloud of frosty froth that is a Sgroppino! Its celestial texture is not quite solid, not quite liquid, but like a hazy dream of delight. www.nigella.com/recipes/sgro...

Donate to Help Give Sansa a Chance to Live, organized by Neil Ramsay Hi. I'm Neil. We've a very sick cat, our beloved tortoiseshell named Sansa, that's in dir… Neil Ramsay needs your support for Help Give Sansa a Chance to Live

If anyone knows any big cat-friendly charities or philanthropists, we could desperately use some help right now. After taking in the ferals for rehab, we're stretched very thin. And then this huge bill for our older girl...

We're very much at a breaking point.

The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine How a single consulting firm extracted $282 million from a network of spam PACs while delivering just $11 million to actual campaigns.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marksβ€”it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

A review for a Little Caesar’s somewhere by Kevin S: 

Stopped into this Little Caesars just trying to get a $6 pizza and ended up in a full on action movie. Just as I grabbed my order, this furious dude barges in yelling about how I cut him off in traffic earlier.
Before I can even respond, he throws a punch but then out of nowhere the guy behind the counter jumps over it like he's been waiting for this moment his whole life and just beats the living hell out of the guy. The guy ran off and the cashier just dusted himself off. I said "are you ok man" and he looked me dead in the eye and said "B*tch, this is Little Caesars. We always hot and ready."
Five stars. Will absolutely return.

annual shark week reminder that:

* discovery intentionally portrays sharks as dangerous when in reality they rarely become aggressive unprovoked

* sharks don’t infest waters, they inhabit them

* sharks are basically doggies and a lot of them will ask for pats with a little nose bump

These kids and their newfangled technology for monitoring hurricane events. Back in my day, all we needed is to know whether or not homosexual activity was going on to ascertain the likelihood of hurricanes striking.

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase β€˜There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is β€˜The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better
