A lot of cats that purr like it's their national anthem drool while they do so. More so with older cats.

Dr. Friedrich Wilhelm Kritzinger: That is not - no, that is contrary to what the Chancellery has been told. I have directly been assured - I have - that - purge the Jews, yes, but to annihilate them - that we have undertaken to systematically annihilate all the Jews of Europe - that possibility has personally been denied, to me, by the Führer!
Reinhard Heydrich: And it will continue to be.

A friend of mine raised snakes and raised bunnies to feed the snakes. I like the snakes, but I also like the bunnies.
Lunacy
Awoo.
It really shouldn't be. Yes we've been raised on slasher cinema in which madness justified the bogey man's capacity to kill in grisly or creative ways, but in reality victims of mental illness who are dangerous are extremely rare, and most of us are more likely to get gunned down by law enforcement for failure to understand conflicting orders.
Curiously, the precursor to slashers, the whodunnit presupposed that anyone could kill if motivated enough to do so. In reality about 20% of soldiers make around 80% of the kills, with the remaining troopers unable to do so, even when faced with a mortal threat. In the old days, such soldiers were branded or executed for cowardice. Modern armies move them into the immense supply line that keeps our front lines running.
These days, politicians discrediting lunatics are the same ones that can't tell the difference between trans folk, drag queens and furries, and are simply capitalizing on fear and hatred for social media likes. Whilst unfortunately, they are seizing power from more reasonable candidates, they will just as quickly target the sane when it suits them, based on race, religion, counter-culture or even the inability to keep up with labor requirements while malnourished.
Before NSDAP came for the communists, socialists and trade unionists, they cleaned out the crazies, including the gays and trans folk. Ultimately they would feed everyone to the fire if the Allies didnt overrun Berlin.
Although, novel reading was a problem attributed to Satan and has been a subject of moral panic. Like violent movies and video games, editorialists and ministers suggested women who read novels — especially romance novels such as those by Jane Austen — would confuse women who are unable to differentiate between fantasy and reality, and might be driven to act out these stories in real life.
Yes, that trope is centuries old.
The asymmetrical glasses tell me you're a fellow PC looking for group.
Though second on calling other people traveller
Happy Birthday 🎂
What sucks is that they're less inclined to kill you by deciding to murder their friend and more inclined to get frisky and underestimate their playful mauling strength and break you the way a kitten mauls a clockwork mouse.
Your big furry friend will eat you later out of respect (and hunger) but will also miss you now you're gone.
In this case woke agendas means pets and treats
So I'm a total pet-drug-pusher. I had a cat who seriously jonesed for breve (half-and-half) so I gave her a milliliter a day. My dog today needs peanut-butter like it's the ambrosia of the gods. It's a small treat every once in a while.
Out of respect for your friends of fur, allowing them a small dose might enhance their enjoyment of life a bit, especially since we are social beings who enjoy sharing a meal with each other. And unlike half-and-half, cats can actually digest tuna.
< rant > ~~It is still a right-wing propaganda show.~~
No wait, its Newsom's show, and he's inviting far-right pro-autocracy bigots, and acts like he's one of them.
It appears Newsom has repeatedly announced he's been seduced by the dark side of the force.
As today's CR vote showed us in the US, the Democratic party is complicit, and Gavin Newsom can't think past his political career to see they're going to imprison him as an enemy of the state before there is ever an election again.
After the election we realized the Democratic party had two options: Go hard left and serve to restore government service to the public (thereby walking away from lobbyists and plutocrat money) or fade into irrelevance. It seems they like money so much they're willing to risk getting long-knifed by OG right-wingers.
It wouldn't be the first time the left-wing parties went Neville Chamberlain. It seems that other nations' voters are also choosing far-right parties over neoliberal parties, if those are the only choices they are given.
If we're going to stop the MAGA movement, autocracy and the holocaust they are oh-so-eager to get started, we need to start getting neighborhood nets and mutual aid orgs going.
(Sadly, I suck at social stuff so how to do that is beyond me. My current plan is to make a whole lot of Tollhouse cookies and give them to neighbors stating this situation.)
You may want to check your own elected officials and how tight they are with lobbyists and other agents of the ownership class. AOC and Bernie Sanders seem to be trying to build a resistance coalition but yeah, Newsom decided to keep the One Ring for himself.
Maybe I have other elected officials that might be useful.
Were using shouting and protest posters for now, but you may want to know where your supplies are for making molotovs. May it never come to that.
