I removed this app from my phone, but popped on today just to spread some beauty to the feed. Chimo says, “Don’t hate me because Im beautiful, and don’t let the bastards get you down.”

@JerseyGio @GadSaad @ninaturner Well, life expectancy in Canada is higher than in the U.S., and I suspect access to healthcare is at least part of the reason why. No system is perfect. But people living longer is a good sign when making comparisons.

I’m trying out Bluesky, along with millions of others. If you’re going there, you can find me as kelbutler.bsky.social. My experience so far is it feels a lot like Twitter, when Twitter was…..Twitter. #Bluesky

@elonmusk Neither one of these rankings is accurate. It was not 1st in 1979, and it is not currently 24th. It’s also a false correlation to assert that the existence of the DOE has determined the rankings, either good or bad.

@KristinRaworth Dual citizen here. It wasn’t simple and it wasn’t the economy.

@kevinvdahlgren @tarafaul503 I appreciate that you want to help her. But recording her & then posting it on social media is victimizing her all over again, & without her informed consent. You could help her without using her to get views to help your broader cause. Consent matters in everything.

So many emotions in a 5-minute piece. I’ve spent a good chunk of my evening listening to varied interpretations of my favourite Nocturne. #chopin F. Chopin Nocturne in F minor Op. 55 No. 1, pianist Kasparas Uinskas, piano youtu.be/LcdpowaEYWg?si… via @YouTube

This beautiful majestic creature climbed up on my lap and made herself comfortable. Less than ten minutes later, my upper torso is covered in cold slimy drool. At least I can be sure she’s sufficiently hydrated.

The sad puppy-dog eyes of a princess who just finished a big supper, but can’t believe I would eat cured salami in her presence without offering any to her. It’s like she’s Tiny Tim and I’m hoarding the Christmas ham.

This is Chimo, ignoring the nonsense that permeates this platform. Be like Chimo.

@thestanleypuph1 You could probably get twice as much of everything if you use this as a strategy. Twice as many scratches, rubs, treats, nuggets—you never know. :-)

@CharityESchmidt My brother spent time in federal prison, then released to a halfway house, and then moved in with me, with a fashionable ankle bracelet monitored 24/7, to complete his remaining supervision time. I wish you and your brother well.

@alannagillis3 I had a horrifying experience in a group project early on in university—mostly to do with gender. It was so bad that any course I registered for going forward, if the syllabus indicated group work, I dropped. Some fallout will be invisible to you.

@rlegrow @KathyHogan75 Used to be at age 50 you move to self-referral. They lowered the age to 40 recently from what I understand. It’s actually way easier once you’re on self-referral.
