Thank you to the massively talented @KrystaAcree for this wonderful portrait of Snowball. Today would've been her 6th birthday with me. Even though you're not here, you'll always be in my heart. Happy Birthday in the sky my little Snow Angel. ❄️💛🌈 #snowballthemeow
Stellan Skarsgård reflects on his worldview :
"My father told me something when I was very small to instill confidence in me: 'Nobody in the world is worth more than you, but nobody’s worth less.' It is an egalitarian view that I’ve carried around in my life. That’s why I am for free schools, free universities, free health care, and free babysitting. Because our society could afford it"
"In America, people think social democracy is some kind of communism. They think capitalism is freedom. It’s not. It’s only freedom to exploit people"

My disabled uncle got a cat last week, and I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen him this happy. Not the polite smile he puts on for people. Not the “I’m fine” look. Real happiness, the kind you don’t have to perform.
Ever since that cat showed up, something shifted. He laughs more. He talks to it. He actually looks forward to his days. Seeing that hit me harder than I expected, because for the first time in a long while, it was obvious he wasn’t just getting through life, he was genuinely enjoying it.
It made me incredibly grateful that this little cat came into his life when it did. So grateful that I didn’t even hesitate, I went out and bought the cat about $1,000 worth of toys, treats, and food just to help out and make sure they’re both taken care of.
Watching someone you love finally experience real happiness again is priceless. And realizing that something so simple could bring him that much peace honestly made my heart feel full.

Once when I was in kindergarten I wanted to play Powerpuff Girls with some other kids at recess, but they told me I couldn’t because I wasn’t white, so this was like a warm hug to baby Willow
