What the kitten does, the kitten commits to

just got off the phone with a financial institution which, for the second time in a few months, made a transaction that caused me panic because of a decision "the computer" made

and each time I called and talked to a person, they assured me it's just a decision the computer made and it's nobody's fault

I ask them who operates the computers? It's you. So fix the mistake and prevent it from happening again.

I'm not accepting this like it's the fucking weather

At the risk of raising ire and torches:

People—especially on the left—have become too imprisoned by the specifics of language, and the reckless need to define everything.

Especially when it comes to identity.

But not everything is identifiable, nor should it be.

“I’ve worked for the Washington Post since 2008 as an editorial cartoonist. … I’ve never had a cartoon killed because of who or what I chose to aim my pen at. Until now.” anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-

i mean this sincerely:

unless you literally take Native, Black, Latino, Asian families by the hand to these fridges WE WONT USE THEM.

it’s due to getting shot dead for existing.

this is a MAGA’s dream target shooting practice if random BIPOC folks show up.

white people taking free anything without asking is “mutual aid”. if it involves us? it’s theft.

so get out of your white privilege comfort zone and take BIPOC to these fridges. not just invite, meet them there.

that’s true praxis.

OMG, IF WE JUST LET PEOPLE PICK THEIR OWN GENDER, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN, AND IT WON'T AFFECT ANYONE IN ANY WAY!

Force field? No, no, "horse field". It uh, well, you'll see

Your belly button is basically the same as the knot on a balloon. If it ever came untied, you'd make a plllfffft noise and zoom around in the air.

@gaghyogi49 - Looks a lot like David Fein, the person in charge of the new TMP 4K Director's Cut.

Looks a LOT like him.

Parentalpocalypse, Day 3B

Mom mentioned the other day that she wanted to try sushi next time she was up.

Challenge accepted.

I actually had a plan for this, since they were both iffy about trying it.

1) I would pick the sushi but not eat it. They'd eat it, and if they didn't like it, I would finish it, and we'd move to another sushi.

2) if everything went bad, we'd hit Jack in the Box.

And the verdict?

Dad loved it! Mom liked it, but isn't big on cold/room temp food. She did say it was good but not something she'd seek out.

We didn't need to hit Jack in the Box, and honestly, I had to start grabbing plates for me because they were eating it all.

Mission accomplished!

Parentalpocalypse, Day 3A

Dad wanted to see snow, so I took them up to Stevens Pass so he could get a taste of snow. We weren't up there long, but they got snow. :)

We took a side trip through Skykomish so dad could see working railroad town and mom could see moss covered trees.

We are almost there folks hang in there

Parentalpocalypse, Day 2

Were all late risers which clashes with the early sunsets, so we stuck around home today. I remembered that there was a historical dairy barn tour of the Snoqualmie Valley, so we checked them out and came back once it got dark.
