@MelissaLaurenE My dad grew up near SL and I am a big fan of the novel but no way am I asking him that. 💀

[Ellen Scordato @EllenScordato]

@Josh_Wilker how? why? Inquiring minds!

[Ellen Scordato @EllenScordato]

@CatLoverCult It's a plot. My cat typed all too similar info into an excel sheet!

@buitengebieden clearly Hubert was a cat in a former life

I just subscribed to the new “this week in new york” substack— by Mark Rifkin — it’s like his FB posts about New York life on a whole new level. And it’s free! Subscribe now and learn what he thinks about restaurants…and more.

Haruki is a @StonesongNYC cat and his servant, um, "owner," is delighted to see him featured here today!

[I’ve Pet That Cat @IvePetThatCat1]

Meet Haruki! He is named after Haruki Murakami, who often has cats in his books. He has written about cats who vanish. Haruki is an expert at this. He can jump very high and then squeeze into tight spaces. His other skill is leaving hairballs where people will step on them.

@NWSNewYorkNY @EarthCam Woke me up—and freaked out the cats! And there were def two massive booms.

@amyatlas @nytimes @cnnbrk @NBCNews @CBSNews Amazing! Thank you!

@NellyPringle8 @jeremylang @SteveMartinToGo Ha, yes. The Oxford comma prevents the second two elements from being read as an appositive of the first, as in @JeremyLang's example, or in the probably apocryphal book dedication: "To my parents, Ayn Rand and God," the example I used when I taught copyediting and grammar.

I just subscribed to Fighting Unreason With Reason because it's not doctrinaire right/left, lib/con, etc. But I guess duality is as real as we want it to be--let's see where Seth David Radwell's new newsletter goes! https://t.co/lAPBYr7YG6

@BradWarner I gotta agree: "...we shouldn’t automatically attribute bad motives to people with whom we disagree. It’s better to learn more about those who hold different views from you on these kinds of things. When you understand why they hold these views you might be surprised..."

[Ellen Scordato @EllenScordato]

@BradWarner I have to agree. They're baaaaad. I rarely go there unless I know there's a teaching or performance I want to see, but I watch w sick fascination as the little YouTube "suggestions" pop up on my desktop afterward. It's SO clear that their algorithms are doing, amplifying issues.

https://t.co/wjzvHvxjsd A program of Tibetan Buddhist meditation and teachings that's been near and dear to my heart for years; support of any amount is welcome.

@turbovax your selfless work made such a difference in people’s lives—you probably saved many lives. The ripple of one massively good deed is incalculable. You’ve inspired me and many others! Thank you, and may all the world enjoy good health and practice generosity, like you.
