  • I think it totally depends on your cat. If my cat were more of a loner/not glued to my hip, I think I would’ve gotten her another cat to hang with. But she and I are really bonded and I feel like it’s hurt her feelings if I got her another cat. I’ve brought home a few fosters or had visitors and she’s never been thrilled. She’s also partially paralyzed after a stroke and has incontinence issues. I don’t think I could handle another cat myself.

    All depends on your situation. Sounds like you might be feeling like it’s something missing from your cats life if you’re thinking about it.


  • Thats my point. Far right governments are taking power all over the world. They don’t usually lead to stability. Add in some well-timed crisis (or at least the perception of a crisis, and the media loves to make us perceive things as crises), and things could go south very fuckin fast. Look at Milei, Trump, the far right in Britain, the AfD. These aren’t the most competent people. They’re reactionaries at best. But what they are good at is scapegoating groups and whipping up peoples fears and biases. A few more elections going the wrong way and we are looking at a nearing uniform far right takeover of power.







  • Thing is…this is just another toll. It bills you the same as all the other tolls in the city. They just gave it a different name. That’s it. In the first days, people were bitching because they took the trains and the busses, but everyone who isn’t an asshole (those of us who don’t drive) didn’t even realize it took effect and everyone was like “woah, what’s going on? Is it a holiday? It was so quiet on my way to work. It was awesome.”

    But these motherfuckers



  • I was born in a super duper small town in Pennsylvania. I’ve met so many people from PA that don’t even know the town exists.

    When I was living in Europe, I was at a house party and I was talking to this girl who did an exchange program. Guess where she did her semester? That super small town no one has ever heard of. She even knew a few people I grew up with.

    Another time, I was walking in a random Spanish town with some random person, and who do I see walk by but some kid I went to high school with. We just sort of pointed at each other, confused, laughed and both kept walking past.

    I love shit like that
