Introducing.. Murphy!


RabbitKM

1,219 views

Murphy is the most recent cat that I am fostering!  I have had him for maybe two weeks now.  He is so sweet, and he loves to play and roll around. Funny story, he was found at a construction site, and the construction workers had been feeding him and taking care of him.  When they finally called the rescue to come get him, they said that they have a pregnant cat that needs rescuing.  When the rescue ladies showed up to get him, they were like... this is a boy.  The construction workers were sure that he was pregnant! LOL Nope he's just fat! The kicker is that the vet said he's only ten months old! This baby might still have some growing to do :) 

Murphy loves playing with his toy mice.  In fact, he keeps me up all night with his incessant playing.  I now put the toys away before bed, but that doesn't stop him! He just plays on his own.  I woke up to him running laps in the living room, jumping from the window sill to the floor and back up again.  However, when it's not nighttime (and nobody is trying to sleep), he is a super lazy player.  He refuses to get off his back to actually chase his string toy, and instead, prefers to laze on his back and swat at it with out moving.  Silly cat!

He is gorgeous, sounds like a character. Fingers crossed he gets his forever home soon, if I wasn't on the other side of the world I would be tempted to steal him, ahem, adopt him lol

Ohhhh, handsome Murphy!  He looks awfully chill there.  I would really like to love on him.

(My girls would not appreciate this!)

Thanks so much for sharing pictures. You know it makes my heart happy. :)

Awww how sweet! I have a pair of brothers we adopted in December. They are 10 months too! They act the same sometimes. It's nice having two so the can tire each other out.

      Eppie (I swear a fundie named her baby this)

      In the book Silas Marner, there is a character called ‘Eppie’ which is short for Hephzibah.

      She may not have any formal qualifications, but Jana has plenty of skills that could help her get a job if she wanted/needed to. I even think she could handle the repetitive nature of work - since she was a child she's been dealing with the boring ass daily grind of washing clothes and dishes and dirty faces day after day after day. What she lacks is ambition. There's a song we used to sing at my evangelical church, it starts with the line "there must be more than this" and goes on to be about wanting to be closer to God and have deeper passion for him etc. Any time Jana (or any Duggar) has had thoughts of more, of dissatisfaction with their life and desire to DO something less mundane, they've been taught to translate that into wanting more God.

      I could, however, see Jill studying some day. Not now, but maybe in 5-10 years, when she's finished having children (I'm not sure Freddie is her last) and they're a bit older and more self-sufficient. I see so many mothers of school-aged kids and teens saying "am I too old to do this? I'll be 45 when I finish studying" and if they're financially secure often they do decide to pursue the thing they've long had an interest in.

      Mother Jones Magazine has found out about T. Rex Arms. In today's newsletter:

      Ever heard of GunTube? 

      I hadn't, until I read this crazy story by Lila Hassan, published on our site today. GunTube is what, as Lila writes, extremism researchers call "an ecosphere of gun influencers whose videos peddle a wide range of conservative content." Their argument goes like this: Guns can help good Christian Americans defend against the hellscape the USA has become, as evinced by—you guessed it—the liberal media, gun control efforts, and Black Lives Matter protests. As Lila writes: 

      While some of its most popular videos offer product reviews and shooting tips, they are accompanied by a wide range of political content, including interviews with conservative officials and activists. In weekly “T.Rex Talks,” Lucas and his brothers sit in a dimly lit studio to discuss America in decay, and how like-minded, God-oriented people can save it. They often reference the end times and urge their viewers to seize control before things get worse. “They’re selling products,” says Max Rizzuto, another Atlantic Council researcher, “and the product is ideology, too.”

      As Lila's piece explains, this ideology also relies on patriarchy, among other things. So, in summary: Guns don't just kill tens of thousands of Americans each year, they're also the latest tool conservatives are using to recruit more people—and men especially—to their cause. 

      "Christian firearms accessory company." That's a contradiction in terms if ever there was one.

      The field of journalism has changed dramatically. But saying "they work for the rich" and are "sellouts" is so juvenile and lacks any sort of understanding of the state of the industry. 

      Calling people "sellouts" because they took or kept jobs when their peers and colleagues were being laid off is just cruel. It's also not that deep. Not everyone in journalism is into hard-hitting investigative journalism. There are sports writers and sports casters, arts and entertainment, political analysts, anchors, feature writers, food writers, etc. There's a former Attorney General who writes a garden column and occasionally a piece on local politics. I guess he's a "sellout" too, reminding us when to start our peonies and snap peas. 

       

       

      My good friend in high school has had a great career as a sports writer.  He has lived in NY, Honolulu and other places.  Is it hard hitting journalism? No, of course not.  But sports is something that interests people.

      I bet there are quite a few changes in the book that they will never publicly admit to. 

      We need a graphic designer to make up a faux literary award for the new cover that acknowledges the number of times it has been entered into evidence in child murder trials.
