This is Jiji , he is named after the Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service. He is very soft and thick. He also has a goofy side, it's all of him, all of him is goofy.

A black cat, lit from below, looking directly at the camera, his eyes are wide open with a bewildered look, and his little tongue is slightly peeking out, providing a very goofy blep.

So, a couple of weeks ago, I made a short, one-time podcast for my social media class, discussing the difference between Deep Focus and Hyper Attention. #socialmedia #art #podcast #hyperattention #deepfocus

In the podcast, I discuss how hyper attention gets a bad rep, and argue why it shouldn’t. Here’s the link if you’re interested in listening to it:

I wish I had something profound to say, truly I do. All I know is that I am devastated. I am angry. How could we, as a country, elect a convicted felon and rapist? As a woman, I am afraid. Afraid of what my future might look like. I am afraid of a loss of bodily autonomy. I know at the end of the day we must move on, but for now, I am bitter, I am heartbroken, I am indignant.

Woke up a bit ago and saw the news. I am devastated. I am devastated for women. I am devastated for people of color. I am devastated for the LGBTQIA+ community.

I wanted to share something my mother said to me when I called her upon seeing the news. “Today we bleed tomorrow we fight.” We need to let ourselves grieve, then fight for our rights.

Hey guys! I just wanted to hop on for a second and talk about as a student in ! I went on a little bit of an adventure to try and vote today involving wrong busses a dying phone and an with no envelope. Unfortunately this means I was unable to drop my ballot off today, but tomorrow I will try again! I know voting can seem like a hassle when you’re a student and you’re already busy, but it’s super important that we vote. I highly reccoment voting early!

Happy everyone! Another week complete and another picture of Sammy posted to celebrate!

A Pregnant Teenager Died After Trying to Get Care in Three Visits to #Texas Emergency Rooms
==

It took three ER visits and 20 hours before a #hospital admitted Nevaeh Crain, 18, as her condition worsened.

Doctors insisted on two ultrasounds to confirm “fetal demise.”

She’s one of at least two Texas women who died under the state’s #abortion ban.

As we get closer to the I just wanted to share some resources for ya’ll when it comes to voting! If you’re a student you might find this helpful: a2gov.org/departments/city-cle , but for general information across the US look here: usa.gov/voting-and-elections . Hopefully this is helpful and if you are on the fence about whether to vote or not, please do.

Honestly, if you’re in the US, please vote. Don’t let a fascist take control. Don’t think that it can’t possibly happen there. This might be your last chance to vote. Don’t waste it. Sitting it out won’t help your cause but it will definitely endanger a lot of lives. That’s my take on it.

Via Kyle Griffin:

This passage from Michelle Obama:

"I hope you'll forgive me if I'm a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore 's gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn. I hope that you'll forgive me if I'm a little angry that we are indif to his erratic behavior. His obvious mental decline. His history as a convicted felon . All of this while we pick apart Kamala's answers from interviews that he doesn't even have the courage to do, y'all."

Bring back this style of UI, you cowards. Let me compute with whimsy :neofox_laptop:
