Animals
Malaysian butterflies:
No link, just a status update on the stages of an icky celiac moment:
1. "My lost and found cat who's been living a feral life all summer wants to come in at night. Poor little shivering thing. I must feed her up so she can recover her weather resistance."
2. "...but she's not recovering weight...."
3. "So I let her snuggle up beside me and tell her it's all right, she's safe at home now, she can relax...and I notice how raspy her purring and even her breathing have become. And what's with the bulging abdomen behind those sharp, skinny little ribs...? She's been spayed!"
4. "Oh ICK that cat's full of worms and I've encouraged her to run around inside the house where I take off my shoes..."
Pepitas actually help with this. They kill many kinds of internal parasites with a nutrient overload. Though I may postpone paying for the computer with Linux, again, to get Silver-cat something that works faster.
New York City
No link to an article that growled, "None of us are New Yorkers now." Harking back to 2001 when, after the Twin Towers of Hubris fell, someone wailed "We're all New Yorkers now." (Speak for yourself, I said.) But, yes, we do need to let New Yorkers feel for themselves how much harm socialism can do them. There needs to be a clear national policy. No relief until they show that they fully understand the harm socialism will have, by that time, done them.
Politics
If Obama had really been an introvert, as some have claimed, he would have had a conscience that would have recognized three things about Obamacare that are fundamentally wrong:
1. the idea of forcing anyone to do anythng
2. the idea of implementing a law that is fiscally unsustainable
3. the idea of involving a gambling scheme in any plan for oneself or for others
He's not an introvert. He is merely a gentleman. The two things look similar on television. A gentleman has "background," manners, style, taste, but not necessarily either moral or practical sense.
And we need to eliminate Obamacare from the law...and replace it with a rational system for paying the real cost of medical care, uninflated by the insurance racket.
