Both of my sister’s family’s elder cats passed away earlier this year. While it took a bit longer than I expected, this weekend they adopted a new one. Sharing it here even though Bluesky notoriously doesn’t care much for cats.

Mexican Birria Tacos 🌮, a popular Mexican dish featuring slow-cooked meat. The tacos are often filled with melted cheese and served with a side of consommé (a rich dipping broth). Slow-cooked for hours with a mix of spices, the beef gets so tender it just falls apart when you touch it. #foodie
My column on how capital becomes a death cult. Faced with a choice between profit and human life, the radical right chooses profit. Then it tries to persuade us that mass death is what we want. It's the new phase of climate denial: accept your fate, earthlings. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
