Painting of a fuzzy white cat curled up asleep. It's on a table with a patterned cloth I think, in front of a blue and white striped wall.

Today we honor what would’ve been Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s 96th birthday. 🖤 Dr. King was revolutionary who fought for justice, equality, and love when the world needed it most. His fight isn’t over—it's on us to keep pushing, keep resisting, and keep his dream alive.

I know a lot of people are going through hardships, so in case you need to hear it:

⭐️ You are wanted
⭐️ You have a place here
⭐️ Your feelings are valid
⭐️ Your identity is real
⭐️ You have value
⭐️ You are deserving of love simply by existing
⭐️ It’s okay to take time to recharge

Japanese painting of a shorthaired white bobtail cat with a red collar tied around its neck. It is crouched, playing intensely, attacking a length of blue ribbon that runs across the floor.

"When Mexico sends its people, they're sending their best. They're sending firefighters to help solve American problems. They're bringing fire fighting uniforms. They're bringing fire fighting equipment. They're bringing kittens down from trees. And all, I assume, are good people."

User "Annie Wu" says "this tweet is my Roman Empire," along with a screenshot of tweet from @PerthshireMags that reads, "climate change will manifest as a series of disasters as viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one filming it."

We don’t have to choose this fate. But I fear we will.

Walt Disney’s Comics and Stories #53 (1945). The cover by Walt Kelly shows Donald Duck riding Pluto, but Pluto is chasing a rabbit into a tunnel under a bridge and it’s clear from the small size of the tunnel that Donald is about to take a blow to the head. His nephews are watching from the bridge with smiles suggesting they are excited to see it happen. Whiz Comics #62 (1945). The cover by C.C. Beck shows Captain Marvel acting as a one man band, playing all the instruments himself. Police Comics #40 (1945). The cover by Jack Cole shows Plastic Man acting as a parachute for Woozy Winks as they fall. A city skyline can be seen behind them. Archie Comics #13 (1945). The cover by Bill Vigoda shows Archie acting as a judge in a Riverdale beauty contest. He is sitting between the two finalists, Betty and Veronica, who are shooting daggers at him with their eyes. Jughead whispers “psst…Arch! I’ve got the jalopy’s warmed up for a quick getaway as soon as you pick the winner”

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

I won't be live-tweeting the inauguration.

Mainly, because I have no intention of watching even one second of it.

If you don’t have a local library card, it should be your New Year’s resolution to get one. It’s an easy resolution to keep and you’ll actually use it, trust me.
