  • If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there’s no progress. If you pull it all the way out that’s not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made. And they haven’t even pulled the knife out much less heal the wound.

    • Malcolm X

    I would say that everything X said 60 years ago still rings true today. Having the daughter of the evilest American politician of the 90’s and 00’s ask for a pat on the back for sometimes criticizing Trump is insulting. Liberals will continue to drag us into fascism all in the name of “compromising” with conservatives, as if the entire party isn’t ready to goose-step their way up Capitol Hill in January.





  • Yeah, she’s been great. Her and my other kitten are getting along great as well! They play and nap together without any major issue. My main concern is that Bou is about a month behind Niniane in development, so she gets manhandled a fair bit when they roughhouse. Not just on size, but Nini has started climbing on furniture and stalking around the apartment when I got Bou, who couldn’t even walk in a straight line. But they take turns pouncing and chasing each other without issue. At this point i only intervene when Niniane is blocking Boudica into a litter box. I want to establish those as a safe space







  • Yeah, that’s one of the drawbacks of living in a semi-rural city in Ohio. Niniane’s mom was a barn cat though, so i i figure she was exposed to worse when i got her. Her mom’s owner only put the bare minimum into preventative care for the cats since coyotes are such a big problem around here. Meanwhile the stray was a “city” cat, so I don’t think she was exposed to anything Nini wasn’t already exposed to. I’ll keep an eye oit for worms in the litter box, but the stray was probably only slightly more at risk for something nasty than Nini was when i got her. Either way, I’ll know in a couple weeks.
