I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I’m sorry about the kitty, Matt.

I appreciate everyone doing the list wrangling and outreach to let people know about Amyth’s situation.

ND, I definitely have concerns, too. Trump and the GOP have been doing their best to strip mine the US for their donors, and that’s going to make it very hard to come back from both the COVID crisis and the effect of the massive shift of resources to the 1%. With a Republican senate Biden’s team will be really hampered in their response. If we can flip the GA seats, that might help. If they could get the Green New Deal in place, that would help on many fronts, but that’ll never make past McConnell if he’s still speaker.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I've been lurking, but lack word for all the ... stuff ... people are going through. It gives me a pang in my heart with all I've been hearing, I just don't know what to say.

I'm just hoping 2021 is better.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I would be more than happy to anchor a Hawaii Buffista enclave, but you should know that moving the cats out here is non-trivial.

Thanks, Debet. My plan is to put Harvey into the arms of anyone who has decision-making power, tell them that he is 22 and that he clearly loves them, and let Harvey work his magic.

I know it is not good, but I am remote working in pjs in my recliner with the tv on today.

I am so thankful for this place and you all and really really regretting that I have not met more of you.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

MM, maybe wear the cape next time?

Fuck! That's what I forgot!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

The title of a review of a trailer for a new movie caught my eye this morning:

"Wild Mountain Thyme trailer: What in the name of holy bejaysus is this cowpat?"

Which is toned down a little from the actual line in the review itself, "What in the name of holy bejaysus and all the suffering saints is this benighted cowpat?"

Heh.

I watched that trailer and read the article. I'm a little confused, since the "Wild Mountain Thyme" they play is usually associated with Harry Lauder (professional Scotsman). oh well ...

On the brighter side, baby panda is teething. And he's crawling, but not yet walking. And growing!
