Expressive Cat Drawings Capture Feline Personalities Through Gestural Lines The way this artist turns scribbles into incredibly expressive cat drawings is absolutely amazing!

Artist ShouXin brilliantly captures the range of personalities of cats with his energetic pencil drawings. trib.al/R9wjsog

worth remembering, David Lynch directed β€œfix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic β€œno mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

Helps bail out Trump from his own idiotic decisions, while reducing gov revenue and will earn no credit from voters in the process. Brilliant.

Human waste backing up in basements is a gut-churning sign of US infrastructure problems A major sewer pipe collapse has dumped hundreds of millions of gallons of sewage into the Potomac River, highlighting a nationwide problem involving failing infrastructure.

This is the kind of shit (pun not intended) @democrats.org need to hammer from now until 2028

We’re spending a billion dollars a day to bomb Iran and raise prices on everything, while DOGE Republicans stole needed funds to improve our nation’s infrastructure

"Iran believes there can be no end to the conflict until it believes Trump has been shown the economic, political and military cost is so high that it is not worth repeating."

the problem isn't technology, which can be very cool and used for very good means. but a system designed around exploitation and control is incapable of using technology, no matter how impressive, for anything other than exploitation and control. this isn't esoteric, they're quite open about it.

Our local academic publishing house has a treat for everyone:

Just walked by a Waymo that is blocking at least 10 cars from leaving a parking garage (took this after I crossed the street) in downtown LA.

It’s parked directly in front of the garage exit. No one has any ability to move it. So an entire parking garage is getting backed by an empty car

the funniest thing about this is that it would not have been exactly revelatory for me because the particular flavor of buddhism i was raised in matches it almost exactly. a focus on one's own agency in self development, the social rippling of those choices, manifestation and magical thinking, etc.

cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

Important caveat: someone’s literacy has nothing to do with their intelligence.

reading comprehension is a skill you can learn & improve at any stage of your life!

undereducation is an intentional mechanism of immiseration. it funnels marginalized people towards the bottom of the class system.
