Tugboat (siamese) has gotten many applications but nobody wants to take his brother, too 😢 these sweet, purry babies are bonded and love each other so much. Brown tabbies are just as cute as a blue-eyed siamese!
Please share and help them find their home! 🩷
If anyone is feeling kind enough to pitch into toward his bills, we would be so grateful 🩷

I believe this jacket is from Dobell, a company that produces their tailoring in Turkey. I'll show you some telltale signs of quality and where you can buy a tailored jacket made in Britain. 🧵
I’ve always believed that taxis are a reflection of what’s going on in a society. You get in, and you’re immediately immersed in endless conversations,; drivers and passengers talking about soaring prices, complaints about the unbearable heat, and, inevitably, an elderly man offering his political analysis of the day. Once he starts, you know his monologue will outlast the journey.
Back when I still had my car, before the fuel crisis, I used to miss this kind of unfiltered connection with people. Every now and then, I’d leave my car parked and take a taxi, just to experience that atmosphere again.
This morning, on my way to work, I got into a taxi where a young woman was carrying what seemed to be a newborn baby. In the scorching sun and stifling heat, I looked at the child sleeping on his mother’s lap and said, “Poor baby, he looks hot.”
“He’s just sleepy,” she replied. “He hasn’t slept all night.” I asked why. “He never gets enough from breastfeeding,” she said. “I’m taking him to the doctor.”
She went on to explain that her one-month-old baby is suffering from severe malnutrition. The baby weighed about 3.8 kg, but instead of gaining weight, he’s now down to 3.3 kg. Her breast milk, she told me, no longer carries enough nutrients because she herself is malnourished and she cannot find baby formula anywhere.
A few weeks earlier, I shared a taxi with a woman and her daughter. The little girl, curious and playful, kept touching my bag and glancing up at me for a reaction. I smiled and interacted with her for a while before turning to her mother and saying, “God bless her, how old is she?”
“Five,” the woman answered. I smiled again, then turned to look out the window, thinking, "That’s not the hand of a five-year-old." Her hand was far too small and thin, even for a three-year-old.
I’ve lost count of how many mothers I’ve met on the road to work, heading to hospitals with their children, all suffering from malnutrition.
These are Gaza's taxi stories now, snapshots of an entire society being starved.

THREAD. A lot of attention is rightly going to Medicaid cuts and other very bad things in Trump's bill passed in the House, but there's something that isn't getting attention, that is difficult to find in any news coverage, but that will fundamentally alter life for all of us.
As SB238A neared a fatal deadline, proponents moved it to Rules to buy themselves more time.Tell the Oregon State House Rules Committee that our communities value privacy, free speech & the right to organize without fear of government intrusion & spying:

no - somehow, sweet Luke is still desperately waiting for a home. He's such a sweet boy, he gives the best headbutts and just wants to play and be near humans. I don't really understand why he's still here
Luke is located in the SF Bay Area
