The Cat With The Pearl Earring.
A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

Alt for four images: 1. A person in a black robe and a tall brown felt hat stands facing a line of riot police holding shields labeled “Polis.” The person is being sprayed with pepper spray, and the air is filled with mist and debris. The person wears a gas mask and stands with a composed posture amid the chaos. 2. The same person in black robes and a tall brown felt hat stands calmly with arms folded while being sprayed with pepper spray by riot police. The individual wears a gas mask and stands on a wet street littered with water bottles. A line of police in helmets and shields labeled “Polis” stands in the background. 3. A person wearing a black robe, gas mask, and tall brown felt hat stands with arms outstretched in front of a row of riot police. The police hold transparent shields marked “Polis” and “Çevik Kuvvet.” Smoke fills the air, and the scene is illuminated by strong overhead lights. 4. A similar scene shows the same person in a dramatic pose with arms wide open and head tilted back, wearing the same attire. Smoke surrounds the area, and the line of riot police with shields labeled “Polis” and “Çevik Kuvvet” remains in the background. Debris is scattered on the ground.

The NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER added the EDITOR OF THE ATLANTIC to a PRINCIPALS COMMITTEE TEXT CHAIN set up for the DEFENSE SECRETARY about PLANNED MILITARY STRIKES.
Here's a thread of involved parties talking about the need for secure communications (when Dems are involved):
BREAKING: French satellite company Eutelsat is replacing Starlink and plans to send approximately 40,000 communication terminals to Ukraine. Their stock has rocketed 390% in the last 3 days as Tesla Starlink SpaceX and X continue their freefall.

Farmers are going to run to Congress for another handout to deal with the retaliatory tariffs and the answer from Dems has to be "no."

Well done, keep nothing back!
Nice way to revitalize that spot. I'm curing a few prickly pear paddles to root for my yarden as well.
I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
