Tonight’s Snooty antics. After finishing three fairly large worms, he relieved himself. So I gave him a foot bath. He seemed to really enjoy sitting in the warm water. He definitely enjoyed the follow up snuggle and drying off.

re: Pete Davidson speaking on Gaza, Israel, and loss
@AlliFlowers @raf @moondog548 @mekkaokereke They care enough to send warships and arms.
I’m not going to argue that our democracy isn’t broken. I know the score. But I’ll take the risk of wasting a few minutes of my time, in exchange for any chance of helping to avert a genocide. It is literally the least I can do. (It also isn’t the only thing I’m doing.)
No. I mean no one gives a fuck about Jared Kushner.
Louisiana is slower in most things… including its movement toward Florida-style fascism. Look for it soon.

We would be greatful if you could amplify our voice & let your followers know that the Auschwitz Memorial is present in #fediverse: @auschwitzmuseum
Every day we commemorate the victims & educate about the tragic human history of #Auschwitz.
Auschwitz is a place that shows where hatred, antisemitism and contempt for a fellow man led people decades ago.
It is also a place where we should reflect on our individual and collective responsibility for the world we live in.

Goals of the HAMAS:

Hamas Bears the Blame for Every Death in This War
Consider: Hamas launched an attack with a wantonness like what the Nazis showed It did so knowing that it would provoke the most furious Israeli response possible.
Why put millions of Palestinians at risk?
Hamas also achieves practical and propagandistic goals
More dead and wounded Palestinians mean more sympathy for its side and more condemnation of Israel.

MSNBC:
Military analyst: Hamas is losing the second phase of their plan already
Dana Bash to retired Gen. Wesley Clark:
“Just to underscore what you said, which is that, Hamas which is suppose to be the leadership of Gaza, is trying to prevent innocent civilians from getting out of harm's way and getting out of a war zone, because they think it helps them in the propaganda war.”

DeSantis is a pathetic bully. He’s done! Leave already! #DoneSantis #Florida #GOP #RottenRon
A 15-year-old aspiring journalist who had made Ron DeSantis squirm with his questioning was thrown out of a GOP event by police https://www.businessinsider.com/quinn-mitchell-ron-desantis-squirm-thrown-out-gop-event-police-2023-10
I was told over 4 years ago that this was a platform where users were pretty informed. Not all of them, apparently.

“Legislative Terrorist” – #Lincoln #Project Advisor’s View Of #Jordan
Jordan has been in Congress for a good while now (2006) yet has never authored/passed a single piece of legislation. What he has done though is throw rhetorical bombs. Actually, more like flaming bags of poop with a lit cherry bomb inside. In general, he’s there because GOPers like that he comes up with all manner of crazy, frequently vile and pretty much bat-sh*t insane accusations against Democrats
