my husband and I (both autistic) have determined that every cat is, to some extent, an autist. they're just strange little guys!

we've been calling her Turtle because she is a tortie... but dilute... like in water... it's all very silly. then again I've also been calling her Babbu and Turtle is definitely better than that

I once stayed in an airbnb in LA which was shared with a very affectionate orange cat, who would SCREAM if I tried to shut him out of the bathroom. he would come in with me and rest his paws on my thigh and purr so loudly. that cat was such a fun little freak and I think of him often.

yeah, we are hoping that Pomelo will have the same experience Adverb has had — an opportunity for them to learn more about him and find him the ideal spot. it’s been miserable, but ultimately I think it was right.

she broke out of baby jail (the bathroom) within five hours of arriving in our apartment because she desperately wanted to hang. she communicates entirely in quiet little chirps. her fur is all over my pyjama trousers. i would die for her

THAT SAID: we have tried again, and so far, it's going well. this is Roxy. her hobbies include lying down companionably with people, fucking up a silvervine toy, and watching humans piss.

so, mixed news. our orange cat, Pomelo, was absolutely not coping in our small apartment; he wasn't settling, wouldn't stop screaming, no matter what we tried. with encouragement from the shelter, we made the tough call to return him to them. this was a few weeks back; it's been a hard time.

It's time for white Democrats in Congress, white editors & journalists in media, white donors, & white elites to listen to Black Democrats & Black voters who are sticking with Joe Biden. Black voters saved America's ass in 2020. Black voters would suffer most under Trump. Listen to Black voters

i am really, REALLY not okay with the idea that someone writing about sexual assault means they must be an abuser. for one thing, the vast majority of art about sexual abuse is created BY THE VICTIMS. the idea that depicting abuse makes you an abuser really fucking pisses me off actually.

"i definitely don't support this unpopular thing," says known liar and convicted felon, predictably keep telling your friends and loved ones about project 2025. like, the specifics. nothing like real and meaningful consequences to get people galvanised.

Don't let his lies scare you out of sharing the details of Project 2025 with everyone you know — especially those who are on the fence about their vote this year.
There's good reason to believe knowing about Project 2025 focuses people's minds on the stakes.

the BBC, at least, can't actually report on political developments (or anything other than neutral facts) until the polls close – this is why there is so much reporting on dogs at polling stations – but hang tight, the nerds will be out in force with the exit polls!
