TIL that the Peace Sign, created in 1958 by Gerald Holtem, was made to mimic how sailors communicate via flag signals. The angle "N" stands for Nuclear and the line "D" stands for Disarmament.

@Nuncio The funny thing is, he only likes rain. He’ll pitch a fit if you drop water on him in the house.
Unlike Oreo, Shadow loves a good rainy day. He’ll watch the rain for hours, and go run around in it until his fur is wet, and then come for a cuddle. #caturday

It's Holocaust Memorial Day. Never forget all the victims of Nazi racist genocide. That's all 17m of them.

@bethroots There’s a reason we call them pussies. He’s the world’s friendliest cat, but he is undone by thunder.
@mcnado It’s the question asked about everything in the ME these days. How many people make it unacceptable? If 25 employees were involved, would that change things? 100? 200?

No photo of Oreo on this #caturday. He’s hiding in the closet in my shoe basket because it’s thundering outside.
A former classmate of mine is finally going through graduation today. I find it so interesting that some people are willing to drag out doing a dissertation. There’s another guy who was in class with us who’s only just now starting his research.
@samlitzinger She’s not running against him, she’s running parallel to him.

President Abraham #Lincoln in letters to Joshua Speed, had prophetic vision on the politics of the future #UnitedStates.
"When the #KnowNothing get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty-to #russia for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy."

You see the difference?

Good news a from NC. Republicans passed a law that required a postcard be sent to the address of any person who took advantage of same-day registration, if the card was undeliverable by the post office the vote would be thrown out.
(The voter would *not* even be notified this happened.)
Like many voter suppression laws, it almost sounds sensible: if you don't think about it much.
On closer inspection, it is designed to target poor, minority and/or young voters. 1/

In any other country, this would be front page news:
Page 53: Renewables have provided more than enough electricity to meet Scotland's needs for the first time, figures show.

More pro-life BS...
"If they think this was him enjoying his hypoxia, then saying what happened last night was 'textbook' are just words without meaning."

@AlliFlowers I don't know. they seem very good at bad ideas. Like never, in a million years, would i have suggested they guzzle horse dewormer or blame 'demon semen' for covid. And yet. And yet.
