That was a cat born on a cold day.
Part of why domestic cat colors are a complex affair is that they can changed based on birth conditions. The warmer it is, the lighter the color of their fur. The colder, the darker they get. This fella seems to have been able to keep most of their face and toe beans warm while the rest was exposed.

This past election shows that we're still recovering from Civil War and the aborted attempt to bring the South to heel afterwards and the fight for the 19th Amendment. We've had over a century on both and it still bothers some non-zero amount of people that women and people of color want to have a voice in our government.
That kind of thing doesn't happen without serious effort. Serious design time and inspection. You don't randomly get a society that cannot stop itself from slitting its own throat. It requires a lot of effort and a lot of indifference to suffering.
In some very real ways America is still recovering from all of the traumatic changes it's ever gone through. It's going to take some serious organization, some setting aside of personal desires (I will smack the next person who says Kamala wasn't progressive enough), and getting through some thickened skulls that it won't get better if they don't make the effort to make it better.
Fuck me, I think I just said the entire nation needs to go to therapy and get their shit together.

I know I'm in the minority, but I've never been a fan of "personality" radio. Turning the radio on means I want to listen to music. I'll tolerate your constant, repetitive car sales commercials if you give me music before and after them. But if you give me an egotistical, edgelord try-hard ass with an idiotic sidekick for laughs then I'm going to turn it off. Or find another station that is playing music.
For the record, Afentra's show came on after I was in the office, so I didn't hear her shenanigans. It was Lazlo in the afternoon which really drove me to turn the station off. How they thought he could carry a national show will forever be beyond my comprehension.

Just when I thought I'd read the most racist thing possible, someone goes and writes something even more racist.

JFC. If this doesn't make it clear that the police can't be reformed here you go.

Breaking WaPo: Trump showed a classified map he retained from his first term in office to passengers on a 2022 private plane flight and retained another record so sensitive that only six high-ranking government officials had access to it, according to a prosecution memo released to Congress.
