https://c.im/@louisffourie/113686750924196041 louisffourie@c.im - A little while ago I looked outside and low and behold, a Grey Partridge in my little city garden! For awhile it was digging and scratching and picking, apparently going after the native grasses I planted (and didn't mow in the fall) under the snow. Good wildlife gardening practices brings in the creatures! It is still there, having settled down for a siesta in the snow.

Deep Space 9 scene. We're in some kind of "sporting court" room with targets on the walls. It's a series of 4 pictures and this scene features Dr. Bashir as well as Chief Miles Edward O'Brien, a man who can kill 2 stones with one bird. Bashir is wearing a fancy space athletic outfit type thing, whereas Chief O'Brien, who can hear sign language, is wearing a brown shirt that kind of looks like a potato sack. In pictures 1, 2, and 3, Bashir is making exaggerated hand motions almost like a guy directing traffic, very spastic and with community theater levels of facial expression in each. In the 4th pic, Chief O'Brien, who sleeps with a pillow under his phaser, has a rich 'WTF' look on his face at whatever it is Bashir is doing. No caption.

It's official: Senate Democrats just confirmed the 235th federal judge of the Biden-Harris Administration.

That breaks the record of 234 confirmations from Trump's first term.

Thank you to all of you who contacted your Democratic senators in recent weeks and pushed them to confirm dozens of pro-democracy judges.

I’m spending less time online this week repeating myself about politics and more time with humans in person. Tonight that means having a Krampus-themed drink with a friend where a portion of the proceeds goes to non-profits that help animals in need.

Seems better than bitching online. Have a good Friday.
Picture of a drink on a table with a silver metal toothpick over the top that has an olive and pepper on it
Screenshot of note in a bar: “This month, we are raising money for multiple kitty non-profits. For everything you buy (drinks, bottles, etc.), we will give matching tickets for you to put into the donation boxes. In January, we will tabulate the tickets and donate from our sales to each of the non-profits. If you put cash into a box, that goes directly to the non-profit and doesn't count towards the ticket totals. The non-profits we are raising money for are: Ricki's Rescue (Instagram: @rickisrescue). Dedicated to helping very special needs cats and senior chihuahuas Rescue & Relax (Instagram: @rescueandrelax). Our local cat lounge, where you can hang out with cats, and adopt them. Fur All Kitties (Instagram: @furallkittys). A no-kill cat rescue located in West Mifflin, that has amazing volunteers and energy. Pittsburgh CAT (Instagram: @pittsburgh_cat). Rescues stray and abandoned cats, and does a great Trap-Neuter-Release program.”
