@ampersine @arstechnica They're tryna cut the costs of their "human capital" to as close to zero as possible, so they won't have to "lay off" workers. They can just overwork them to death while they try to find fresh meat for the grinder. Disgusting.

Robert Kennedy Jr gets multiple (correct) diagnoses of a brain tumor, and one quack who says maybe it's a parasite. Guess who BobbyJ went with? Dr Red Wiggler, the Cadillac of oncologists.

@karabaic Huh. I thought he consulted with the same guy who treated his uncle Teddy.

@karabaic And went with the least likely possibility? Peter Hotez says no one can say until they review his scans, which he's not revealing.

This is my friend Spiggi's work:

I think it's beautiful, but she's willing to send it to anyone who's willing to pay for the postage. Personally, I think if an artist makes beautiful things, you should pay them market rate, but, it's not my decision.

Another one bites the dust! Goodbye, FreedomWorks, long may you lose and keep on losing:

Another bunch of libertarians aged out of the workforce, another bunch of swine gone from the ranks of CON-servatives.

@Lana I ate RFK, Jr.'s brain, and IT KILLED ME!!

@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

Awake early for a change bc I am in so much pain that I could chew thru my own intestines, but I can't bend that far. I just took OTC pain meds, but this is ridiculous. I can't be on pain meds 24/7, I might as well just give up and put a bullet thru my brain (also not an option, the sight of blood makes me puke).

There must be SOMEthing people do to distract themselves? What? Pick fights with the cat? (Not recommended, he has WAY more pointy fings). UGH.

@Callalily Now don't you stress yourself worrying, you just got a great new job, and you need to be celebrating!

thepoliticalcat,
@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

@Callalily I have drugs, dear. I just don't like taking the strong stuff bc it knocks me out. I'm a lightweight when it comes to meds. Things that other people take routinely without problems end up knocking me out for a day or two. Trade-offs, I guess.

thepoliticalcat,
@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

@Callalily I might just have to give in and take something. We'll see, I guess.

@WhiteCatTamer I can't straighten up, so I'm sort of curled into a shramp position. No idea why this is happening. So, can't exercise. However, I'm in CA where weed is legal, and it IS helping, altho I may have to lie down for a bit. I think I'll do that right now, in fact.

thepoliticalcat,
@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

@WhiteCatTamer I tried napping, and it worked a treat! I still have some pain, but I can actually walk now, if slowly, and the pain seems less. A cup of hot tea will definitely help.

RFK Jr has literal brainworms. Reality has officially jumped the shark.

@Lana This guy is 70 years old, has had mercury poisoning from eating huge quantities of tuna and perch, and a dead tapeworm inside a cyst in HIS BRAIN. I am NOT voting for this ticking time bomb. He is NOT an option unless you have brainworms too.

@Kierkegaanks @Lana He is, apparently, highly competent in court, but perhaps he's just benefiting from name privilege and such. I mean, men often sit around talking rubbish, and it's not until you get a seat at the table that you realize how much of their public persona is, frankly, bullshit.

Running towards the preferred human to apologise for verbally abusing her earlier. She had been checking my fur with a comb, which I had not consented to. Therefore, I feel it was deserved, but I felt apologising anyway was the gentlemanly thing to do to keep the treats coming my way.

thepoliticalcat,
@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

@Colin Oh, Colin, how could you? It's NOT deserved, the PH loves you so much. Did you gum her forehead again?

thepoliticalcat,
@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

@Colin I'm sure she's terribly hurt by these shenanigans.

thepoliticalcat,
@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

@Colin Excuse me? You sound like my mother. Mom? Are you reincarnated in Colin? Because people don't have to be BLEEDING to be hurt!

thepoliticalcat,
@thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social avatar

@Colin She is much too forgiving, but you're in good paws, I mean hands, so at least that's one less thing to worry about. Consider apologizing for the swatting and hissing. Perhaps gumming her leg as a show of affection?

Dear Fediverse, may I introduce my friend, @Spiggitzfan, creator of beautiful art/handwork/crochet:

https://mastodon.social/@Spiggitzfan@mstdn.social/112332807254397333

Is this not incredibly beautiful? I wish I could afford this piece, but it's too beautiful for someone like me, who is old and eremitic, and it needs to hang in a gallery, or something.

Anybody know of someone who wishes to pay an artist for this incredible work?

@ksmokeycormier @Bongolian This is a goddamned disgrace.

https://mastodon.social/@tusk81/112401682662229515

I still have not recovered from the trauma of WATCHING this shit happen. Imagine what these poor kids and their poor PARENTS, who had to LIVE this shit, are going thru! STILL not reunited. It's a fucking disgrace.
