@MdotAtherley As a white cat owner whose white partner had a baby, I can all the medical ppl insisted she STAY AWAY from the litter boxes. But as indoor cats, they were fine. And they've been wonderful for/with my kid; one is his BFF.

@Mercuryreads Doing anything when in ONE of those situations is hard, you deserve to be proud of yourself.

[Jessi Robinson (she/her) @JRobin19]

GREAT thread, please read! I don't think either way is wrong, but I tend to recommend watching before reading.

[Mercury Natis (@bsky too) @Mercuryreads]

Today for you all, a wildly unpopular take that I wholeheartedly believe is correct: You SHOULD watch the adaptation before you read the book.

Ok, let me explain.

#TolkienTrewsday/#TolkienTuesday let's not forget Elrond & Elros's two dads! After their parents abandoned them, they were abducted and "Maglor [earlier texts: Maedhros] took pity upon Elros and Elrond, and he cherished them, and love grew after between them..."

George W. Bush's presidency WAS decided by a court, literally in a case called Bush v. Gore, and recounts were stopped.

Trump got all his little recounts, which reaffirmed his loss, and he still incited an insurrection (Gore did not).

It's always great when @UMassBoston has 5+ buses just sitting & not moving in front of the campus center at 5pm when ppl need to get to the train.

First they came for the parody accounts… and I was pretty shocked, because there are actual Nazis on this platform that should probably be dealt with first.

[Dave Itzkoff @ditzkoff]

But they were, all of them, deceived, for another Check Mark was made. In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, a master Check Mark was forged in secret to control all others. And into this Check Mark he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life.

Complaining about having to provide access is complaining about disabled people.

Inaccessibility is ableism.

[Angus Johnston @studentactivism]

Yep. Fascism is a reactionary ideology, and this is an essential implication of reactionary ideology.

I wish @girlscouts would bring this programming here, too important today.

[World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts @wagggsworld]

Stop✋ the Violence - a unique @wagggsworld gender-based violence programme is being delivered this week to @guidesrwanda & @Pfadfinderinnen. Amazing pics of the young women developing advocacy campaigns to address & tackle the issue of gender-based violence in their communities.

A year ago:

-A bag of potato chips at the grocery store: $5.05. Now: $6.05

-A dozen eggs: $1.83. Now: $2.90

-A two-liter bottle of soda: $1.78. Now: $2.17

Guess what else is higher? Corporate profits.
